I ran into this issue just recently. Wayland, trying to run i3wm, using lightdm. Once booted, lightdm greeter did not load and only a black screen displayed. I was still able to VNC into the device using tigervnc.
The issue appeared to be lightdm not supporting (or supporting well maybe) Wayland. I ended up switching from lightdm to gdm and installing hyprland on that machine.
This is really the truth. Auto-updating is really bad form when you are getting into server management. The first admin position I had back in the day had the rule that no automatic updates are to run, a manual update can only be run after 1 month of that update being released, and it had to accompanying documentation confirmed before it could be approved. The one time we did not follow that we ended up having to re-image the server in question from backup (as that was the quickest solution to getting it back online).
If you end up going with a SFF build, I would recommend a dedicated GPU for Jellyfin. Nothing fancy, just a low profile GTX-1030 or RX 550 to handle the transcoding. Otherwise you’ll probably run into high CPU spikes while watching content from browser or some smart TVs.
For my travel devices, I use Tailscale to talk to the server. For raw internet, I use their funnel feature to expose the service over HTTPS. Then just have fail2ban watching the port to make sure no shenanigans or have the entire service offlined until I can check it.
I never really got their marketing campaign: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JNsKvZo6MDs
Yeah, if the student devices are locked down its done so per policy. Creating VMs which allow students to bypass that policy is going to potentially get you into trouble with administration. IT could maybe setup those students with Citrix Workspaces or something similar they support to achieve that without having to throw student restrictions out the window.
Sorry, I was trying to find parts for my daughter’s machine while doing this (cheap Minecraft build). I corrected my comment.
I’ve used smollm2:135m for projects in DBeaver building larger queries. The box it runs on is Intel HD 530 graphics with an old i5-6500T processor. Doesn’t seem to really stress the CPU.
UPDATE: I apologize to the downvoter for not masochistically wanting to build a 1000 line bulk insert statement by hand.
That article is probably not the best way to support that idea though. It mentions “when 3.5% of its population actively mobilized against it” but doesn’t explain what “actively mobilized” even means. It talks about how effective non-violence has been in other countries but then caveats that to being when an independent judiciary was present. It even uses Kilmar Abrego Garcia to support that idea, but fails to mention that a lower court’s decision was ignored and the only reason the SC was involved was because the administration said it didn’t have to listen to them.
Obstruction is good, but ultimately if you are not at risk of losing anything by that obstruction, it likely isn’t an effective way to accomplish anything. That’s even if you could consider it obstruction. If you are permitted to have a rally then you are not obstructing anything. You’re just having a good time. Municipalities don’t approve permits that obstruct, its the whole reason for permits.
Tailscale has the funnel command which exposes services like how you describe, but that’s off the table.
Not quite sure I understand your layout, but if these are separate VPNs, you could run one from the server with a port forward (guessing that’s not through Mullvad as they don’t offer forwards any longer - to my knowledge) and then setup the general VPN on your router perhaps so you don’t have to change ip routes for the whole network. You would still probably need to setup an ip route specific to the server VPN traffic on the router at that point, but that would probably be less work.
If this all being done from the same device then you would need to separate them out by IP routes.
I don’t think its a matter of violence vs non-violence. Even in the samples provided by the article, its a matter of willingness to commit what would otherwise be criminal acts. Ghandi was successful not because of the Salt March but because they created the Declaration of Sovereignty and Self-rule and refused to pay taxes until negotiations were made.
I remember Penn and Teller did an episode that touched on this on a show they had. The big take away was there is a difference between doing good and doing something that makes you feel good. What’s accomplished by a sit-in on a courthouse lawn on the weekend that you filed and received a permit to do from the city? People like to compare stuff like that to the 1960s civil rights movement, but here’s the thing: Rosa Parks not giving up her seat wasn’t a social faux pas, it was a criminal act in Alabama.
Ok, this is your summarized argument: Accel is going to gut the company and run it into the ground because that’s what they do, but they haven’t ever done that, but they could, so they will, so that’s the same as doing it, although they haven’t, but it will happen in the end because that’s what they do, but they don’t.
Its not a strawman if what you say is in fact a weakly constructed idea. Its just a weakly constructed idea then. Its nothing but vague generalizations and “what ifs” you posted. Let me just put it this way: evidence or stfu.
ME: So, even if Accel doesn’t do that, which they haven’t done that, they are still guilty of doing that.
YOU: Not what I said.
YOU: What you’re apparently not getting is that even if it’s not happening right now, it will in the end.
So… even if Accel doesn’t do that, which they haven’t done that, they are still guilty of doing that. You have no argument, just strong feelings.
Is there an actual example you can provide of Accel doing that
So… if all VC money does, then you can provide an example of Accel doing this… right? So, go ahead and do that now.
So, even if Accel doesn’t do that, which they haven’t done that, they are still guilty of doing that. Ok, yeah. That’s some solid irrefutable logic you got going there. I think I’ll go back to arguing this with commenters who are a little less emotional and more grounded in real world points about the topic.

Historically, Accel has never pushed acquisition. On the contrary, they do the opposite. Its why they VC fund over 300 companies, but you’ve never heard of them. That’s not to say they couldn’t, but they haven’t ever acted in that manner previously so logically it would be safe to assume that trend continues with Tailscale. I think that’s important here: its not about ability its about intent. If as a organization you give funding to another organization (even non-profits) you exercise at least some control over them as they are dependent on that money to function. This is actually a point other commenters have made in regards to Headscale. Headscale is maintained by a Tailscale employee. As they fund him personally, they can exercise some control over him as he depends on that money/employment. Again, even their comments circle back to ability vs intent. Tailscale could influence their employee, but would they? That’s where a lot of the VC argument goes. Its just speculation as what a group could do, not what they would do.
Does The Linux Foundation have complete control over Linux?
You’re the one who said it, though.
I especially love the irony of Anubis using yesterday’s hype thing to combat today’s.
