Forget about EA, they’re a different company. Ubisoft is the one you want to worry about, they own Watch_Dogs and all related copyrights like DedSec

I started with the 2D arcade game of course. Both 3D games (SpyHunter and SpyHunter: Nowhere to Run) are solid as well

Sounds like it’s time to give a little insider info on the company network to hacking groups.

My Proxmox server is called ARCADE and each VM is named after a game. Currently we have:

• SpyHunter (PiHole and WireGuard VPN)
• Pacman (Ubuntu Server w/ Dashy, Syncthing, Portainer, and NextCloud inside Docker)
• MsPacMan (Ubuntu server for failover purposes. Still under construction)
• CrazyTaxi (Windows Desktop)
• MissleCommand (Linux Desktop)
• MonkeyIsland (qBitTorrent)

Keeping this in the back pocket in case the NixOS ideas don’t work out, thanks for sharing!

This is very much what messed up my last install. Errors kept telling me that I needed to update file owners to 33:0, despite having done that on every mount point on the Ubuntu server. I even tried updating the ACLs from inside OpenMediaVault, but no dice. In hindsight I’m pretty sure that was stupid but it was already broken at that point and I was trying anything.

I was really just using SMB for convenience sake, one less protocol for me to turn on and configure. I initially thought about NFS but when I realized how little I know about actually securing NFS I decided against it. Though, I suppose that’s led me to this point here.

Trying it stock is exactly what I was thinking, though what folks have said about NixOS makes me think that’s going to be the first thing I try.

Very first experience was NC-Pi, right before that project got canned. Loved it so much I spent a couple hundred on shared hosting and set v24 up there, but I’ve been trying to move to my homelab because A) One less bill B) I can use the 72TB RAID Array for storage instead of the 30GB storage I paid way too much for.

Honestly have had great experiences with Portainer so far, with Nextcloud being the only real exception. PiHole, Dashy, an introducer for Syncthing, and StashApp all run without a hitch via Compose files dropped into Portainer. Though I am definitely going to take Docker out of the picture for the next NC install which means taking Portainer out as well.

I’ve only ever used the official repositories, basically followed the install documentation to get the letter. I do management of it through Portainer but that’s just a convenience for testing. Once I got the Compose file just right I’d docker up -d inside the folder on the VMs main drive.

The actual files were saved to a mounted SMB share, and I’m not sure if it’s related or not but I also had a media folder mounted as SMB and configured to be shared as External Storage within Nextcloud itself. I keep wondering if the database isn’t killing itself trying to read everything in there…

I tried that first, actually. Gave up on it, perhaps too quickly. I’ll give it another peek.

Thanks for sharing!

Long-term plan is that this will be something my immediate and extended family relies on to securely share family photos and make plans among ourselves, so it absolutely needs to not run SQLite. I made that mistake already and fortunately the only one affected was me.

Thanks everyone!

The original appeal of the AIO package is that it handles all that for you, but I’m beginning to think this is the only way forward that doesn’t break the bank on hosting costs or break the software on update.

Sincerely appreciate your input!

Trying not to learn another deployment scheme, but keeping this on the list. Thank you for sharing!

Gonna be reading into Nixos, this may be the way forward I’m looking for. Thank you both for your responses!

Same. They kept it extremely quiet. The band is now touring with a new vocalist and honestly the new song they put out is alright. Nothing earthshattering but it’s an alright song.

What does a habitual liar do when called on his lies besides lie some more.

Keep on digging Donnie, you’ll hit Chinese soil eventually.

Sure.

• Hardware
• Software

I left everything in, so no doubt there’s stuff in there specific to my vault you won’t need like metadata - adjust these to your needs or use them as a starting point for something new. There’s no network device template, I usually use the hardware one and just delete the irrelevant bits.

deleted by creator

I’ve been using Obsidian for a lot of other purposes for a couple years now, so I was comfortable adding my documentation into my existing vault there. I made a couple templates that I fill out for any hardware/software/networking equipment.

Since the app’s selling point is storing all your notes in plain text I wouldn’t put anything security-related in there without some encrypted container. I use KeePass for that part, and keep the file it generates in the same folder as Obsidian so I can link to it within notes. Click the link in the note, KeePass opens the vault and asks for its password.

Lovecraft work probably wouldn’t have worked so well if it wasn’t his idiotic racist views since in a way a ton of his work is based on fearing the outsider and basically is racism in a super hyperbolic way

I never really thought about it that way, but you’ve got a solid point. The people fear the unknown, and the unknown acts in ways that provoke and reinforce that fear, turns it into cosmic horror. If you were to take away the Cosmic part, all that’s left is the fear of the unknown.

I feel like the art is what needs judged here, not the artist. We put all this emphasis on Dahl thought this and Lovecraft said that, and people use that as reason to disregard the entire body of work the person produced. But we lose a lot of work that isn’t really affected by those views and actions because we can’t disconnect it from the person involved in the creation.

What throws a wrench in that is when the person is still alive, and still profiting from those works. Hence why most of your queer/trans friends haven’t bought anything Harry Potter related in a while. Marilyn Manson is my personal example of this. I was a huge fan of his work as a teenager and well into my 20s. When all the stuff about what he did to Evan Rachel Wood came out, I stopped listening to his albums for a long time. I intentionally avoid streaming his tracks because I don’t want to give money to someone I see as abusive toward others, but those albums are still worthy of attention for what they say beyond that subject. Still, it’s hard to hear his voice and not think about what he did.

On the other side of that coin, those managing the estates of these creators that are gone need to be aware of what’s wrong with their charge as much as what’s right. The museum in this piece is doing it right at the end of the day - making the best of a lifetime of antisemitism.
