A: How do I install avidemux on Debian? Well - The starting point here would be the avidemux download page- they have a set of appimages that should work without installation, but for the purposes of the answer, lets assume we're adding the repositories to the system. The download page references a repository on https://www.deb-multime... (more) |

A: Docker throws docker: invalid reference format: repository name (library/PRIVATE) must be lowercase error So, for some reason, the fact that that key I'd generated for SECRETKEYBASE had capital letters didn't quite sit well with docker. I ended up generating a new key with `pwgen -A 50` - the -A removes capital letters, and it works now. (more) |

Docker throws docker: invalid reference format: repository name (library/PRIVATE) must be lowercase error I've been trying to set up campfire to test - I'm mostly following the guide given on the git repo , and trying to fill in the missing bits. I'm using this script to try to start the basecamp docker container ``` export YOURSECRETKEYBASE=$(cat redis.key); export VAPIDPRIVATEKEY=$(cat va... (more) |

Something to consider is that assuming you dump your database out, its probably a large binary file, and 'classic' git isn't great for that. I think there's variations like Git LFS that might help. Also there's various backup tools so designing your stratergy around the specific tool in place wou... (more) |

It just drops out and reboots. I'll need to try another drive but its quite mysterious. It also sometimes doesn't boot, but I've literally tested every other component. It only does it under heavy *write* reliably too.

A: Hardware for occasional direct control of personal server Since my previous answer, I've upgraded to an openterface Mini KVM You need a (free) client on the host, but it will let you control the other machine with the keyboard on your own system. It's about 130 USD for a full kit and will also let you plug in a device like storage to the KVM box that ca... (more) |

How do I troubleshoot a NVMe drive that drops out under load? I'm running a self built machine with a MATX-CS612 motherboard. It runs ubuntu server 24.04 with a ZFS root. The machine tends to reboot under a very specific workload (Running a selenium workflow that downloads large data dumps from a set of websites), and I've narrowed down the issue to the dri...

A: How do I firewall all telemetry? Nearly all telemetry requests are domain name based, so a good network wide adblock will do this. I'm using adguard home - and the standard filter handles that. Considering the CDNs and such it works a lot better and cleanly. It is network wide (or I guess you can run it locally or in a VM and u... (more) |

A: Why don't motherboards support the highest RAM Speeds? Depending on your use case - historically RAM speed hasn't mattered that much. AMD's APUs were memory speed dependent, but that was for the video adaptor. It's also worth noting many PC builders tend to be enthusiasts, and there's always been a overclocking scene. Binning, and selling ram that ru... (more) |

A: Understanding integrated/low-end GPU performance for budget upgrades You're in a bit of a period of transition - and it's a little more complicated than one would assume. A decade is a very long time, and both 'big' CPU makers are transitioning towards much more capable architectures - Intel ARC is much more capable than older Intel onboard, and AMD is good enough...

Video Capture Dongle. Has a USB plug on top, HDMI port at the bottom and is black. Has the words input at the bottom, output at the top and HDMI VIDEO CAPTURE printed across i... (more) |
