I’ve had these issues during high intensity GPU usage on an nvidia gpu. It’s the only times REISUB didn’t work and I’ve had to do a hard reset.

Not much I can contribute other than don’t rule out a nvidia driver problem.

It’s the plugins that cause me grief. Especially any that use ilok or weird licensing software.

I’m a fairly advanced user of gnu Linux distros at this point in my life. Fedora is no where close to straightforward for gaming. Bazzite is plug and play set and forget. Is it frustrating to deal with flatpaks and osm-tree instead of simply using a standard package manager? Sometimes, sure. But for an absolute beginner there really is no better option for gaming as a fresh convert from windows.

Audio problems and nvidia drivers can be an absolute nightmare on almost all major distros from Debian to Ubuntu, to fedora if you don’t have an absurdly advanced grasp of the processes underlying.

Bazitte takes all of that out of the picture. It’s absolutely not a meme distro. It’s perfect for an average tech literate person.

I use arch btw, Debian, fedora, Pop, lubuntu, Ubuntu, and a half dozen other distros on a daily basis across a handful of devices. So I’m not daily driving Bazitte, but for gaming and general purpose computing there’s no simpler distro imo and I’ll die on that hill.

Okay. That clears up quite a bit.

It absolutely does and I’m not remotely interested in trying, but I’m also curious. There’s large communities and major repackers involved.

I’m hoping somebody from this community has an experience with that community they can share.

The gluetun wiki’s command didn’t work for me, so I used yours and it worked flawlessly. Thank you.

The wiki uses {{PORT}} and it seems {{PORTS}} is the correct variable.

I second this. Had nothing but headaches with duplicati.

Try Borg.

I’ve tried many distros, Bazitte is by far the best for gaming without having to tinker. Fedora is not a good option imo because nvidia drivers are a pain in the ass.

I’d recommend he dual boot. Bazitte strictly for gaming due to it’s lack of traditional package management. And arch, Debian, or Fedora for coding.

I personally use PopOS for work stuff as well.

Last time I checked, you need to make a github pull request with the relevant info about your instance and after a certain buffer period they will add your instance to the list. Check the github page. There should be instructions.

I recently went down that same rabbit hole.

I ended up buying Bitwig Producer and I’m running it in an Arch install.

I tried a number of different distros which all caused different headaches. Arch ended up being the best fit for my Linux audio needs and was way easier to set up than Lubuntu, Debian, PopOS.

With the right setup, latency is better than I was getting in Ableton on Windows and Mac. I can even record live audio without any perceivable latency.

Bitwig made me realize how convoluted and stupid Ableton’s UI is. The team behind Bitwig holds good values, so I felt they deserved my money. However I have seen torrents available for it. I suggest you try a 30 day trial first that way you can check if you even like Bitwig before going through the hassle of getting a pirated version working.

My current pain point is Serum in Wine has GUI rendering issues making it unusable. Luckily Vital for Linux works perfectly.

Fabfilter plugins work with some minor tweaks.

My Waves license is on an ilok, which I know doesn’t work in Wine. So eventually I’ll pirate the cracked version and try that.

So far I’m really happy with the setup. Another benefit of Linux audio over Windows or Mac is the routing abilities. I can route any program as an input, allowing me to stream YouTube or Spotify into Bitwig so I can play live music over the songs without having to download them first or rig up some weird aux cable nonsense.

That’s pretty annoying.

I had a similar experience today with two other services. The bot detection systems these sites are using is completely broken.

I’ve had my tuta account for a while so never had that issue with them. But I don’t appreciate the way they handled your issue. I wouldn’t use tuta if I was treated like that.

Buy IP PoE cameras like Amcrest or Reolink, hard wire them to a detected hub that is either disconnected from the internet, or firewalled to only allow direct access over your own personal VPN.

AI is the poetic culmination of where society has been heading for decades.

A photocopy of a photocopy.

AI is literally an acceleration of Jean Baudrillard’s theories on modern culture.

Not that I think that excuses it. If anything it’s more depressing.

Take it one step further and host your repo somewhere other than github. Codeberg, perhaps?

I use Minica and it’s insanely simple to use. Terminal based though.

There’s no certificate at the VPS level. It forwards everything to and from the self hosted reverse proxy.

Now that you mention it though, there may be a slight complication with pinning the reverse proxy to the domain API for cert renewals. I’ll have to check how I have mine configured but I may have given my reverse proxy a IPv6 and configured that for cert renewals.

That would mean some down time as you update the IP if your ISP rotates it.

This is fine unless you have a slightly higher threat model.

Me personally, I dislike the idea that if someone (VPS provider or LE) were to snoop inside my VPS, they would have all of my unencrypted data where TLS ends and wireguard picks it up.

I don’t do anything illegal, but I do have photos, personal files, and deeply personal journals/notes for which I enjoy the comfort of mind when kept private and secure.

My recommendation is always to have your TLS equipped reverse proxy on your own hardware. Then use a VPS as a SSL passthrough proxy that forwards requests to the locally hosted reverse proxy. You can connect the two via wireguard.

This has a few benefits. It keeps encryption end to end. It also allows you to connect to your server via your domain name even in you LAN. You can hijack your domain at the router level DNS menu to reroute to your local reverse proxy. And it keeps the TLS connection.

I believe this is the original whitepaper: https://ws.binghamton.edu/fridrich/Research/double.pdf

And here’s an implemention I found on github: https://github.com/andrewlewis/camera-id

With that repo you should be able to test ways to obfuscate the noise signal.

Most people don’t know your photos can be cross profiled and identified by the unique noise signature of your camera.

I’ve never heard of it being used in practice though. There’s a github repo somewhere if you’re interested in trying it yourself.

Partly true but Amazon has been known to make dupes of a product and sell it at a loss to drive the competitor out of business. I’m sure that threat lingers in some peoples’ minds.

They probably also promise the management team “you’ll still have creative control after we buy you”. Then turn around and replace each of them one by one
