    Cannot reset DNS Settings

    Jump

  • Once you change your DNS server in your router, make sure to renew your clients DHCP lease. It may still be using the stale DNS server. On windows verify its using the new DNS server with: ipconfig /all

  • LocalSend, a cross platform alternative to airdrop and nearby share.

    My family uses it for almost all of our filesharing. IPhone to android, iPhone to windows PC, android to macbook, etc. Its works really, really well.

  • Did Fedora 40 break something for you?

  • No issues jumping straight from 37 server edition to 40.

  • Where to "practice Linux" terminal commands

    Jump

  • This website has a bunch of great practice "wargames". You'll learn a bunch about common linux commands and the different options for them. It also provides you with some great tips on what to google if you get stuck. I reccomend starting with bandit.

  • +1 for openscad. I switched over from Fusion 360 back when autodesk changed the personal use license in 2020.

    It takes a bit to get used to it, but once you've made a few parts you begin to see how powerful it can really be.

    Its also super lightweight, so you can run it on most systems without any issues. I've ran in on a chromebook before.

    The only thing I miss about fusion 360 is an easy way to add fillets to parts, that can be tricky in openscad. I use chamfers for the most part though, so I don't miss it much.

  • You're Not Imagining It: Google Search Results Are Getting Worse, Study Finds

  • If you use Firefox, the reader view works great when you want to look at just the article and nothing else.

  • How to use a portable SSD for a travel OS with Linux?

  • I'm new to networking and self-hosting and have no idea where to start.

  • A custom router + managed switch is a great way to learn. Studying the fundamentals is also good, but in my opinion it's not as fun as setting up your own network and learning hands-on.

    If you decide to go this route I highly reccomend taking regular backups of your config (and backup again before you change stuff). Part of learning involves breaking things - trust me you will break your network - and in networking that's one of the best ways to learn. Backups will give you an easy way to restore to a known working configuration.

  • What can I do with an old laptop?

    Jump

  • Yes. A unifi ap connects all my wireless devices to my LAN

  • What can I do with an old laptop?

    Jump

  • Yes its my main router. Everything comes into the laptop across one interface setup as a trunk that includes vlans for WAN, LAN, etc. From there proxmox has a vlan aware linux bridge setup that connects to all the VMs/containers that I run. The VM virtual interfaces get tagged with whatever network I want the host to be part of.

  • What can I do with an old laptop?

    Jump

  • I have a laptop motherboard setup with proxmox running:

    • plex
    • radarr,sonarr,prowlarr
    • opnsense
    • foundry VTT
    • pi-hole
    • unifi controller
    • qbittorrent
    • kavita

    This is running on an i5-1135 with 40gigs of memory. If your frugal about how you have stuff setup you can pack alot of services into old laptops.
