It uses some form of VNC (forget the name). Performance is fine for the VMs for non-video stuff.
You can run whatever you want inside a VM too.

Works for me, but damn it’s dog snot slow. Like typing takes 1-2 seconds for each character to show up
There was a post recently about “.LAN” recently being added to the DNS spec
Why would you run local traffic over the VPN?
I decided there simply were not enough docker apps for downloading Youtube videos, and so I made the situation worse :p
You get my upvote for this alone!
The other cost to home lab serving lots of data is internet limits.
My internet will throttle after X terabytes (I forget the limit), whether upstream or down, and of course upload is slower.
It’s like playing a game of tetris with costs, performance, stability, reliability, flexibility, privacy, security, and personal effort.
I’m not saying don’t have a home lab, just that there are things to consider. It’s worth the effort for me, though I’m working to move some things to cloud storage (e.g. Hetzner/Storj.io) and a VPS to get some of the bandwidth off my connection, and remove my home internet as a bottleneck or failure point.
That’s not much of an answer, I’m not reading docs because you can’t be bothered. I don’t use NixOS, so if you want to use that as an example, you’ll need to put in the effort to explain how it’s different.
If you don’t want to use LDAP, don’t. Then you get to manage each user account on each device.
To be frank, it seems like you have an adversarial attitude about this, and you think NixOS is the answer. Every one of your responses has been “but” whatever. You don’t seem like you want to understand how to use things, just complain it doesn’t work the way you think it should.
You need backup local admin accounts, not Backups for each user.
Which is how enterprise does things. There are local accounts with root access, but the id’s and passwords are tightly controlled.
Meaning what?
What’s wrong with LDAP for users? (I’m trying to think of a negative, and can’t).
“Rarely happens”
And yet it still happens often enough if you touch enough boxes or make enough changes across enough boxes.
The thing is, you never know when or where an unbootable box is going to occur. This is why I’ve carried a loaded thumbdrive for ~20 years (Lacie IAmAKey was my latest, wish they still made them - mine finally died. Knockoffs are available, unfortunately the casing is aluminum, not stainless, so they’re easy to bend). And why I keep hot spares around.
Because “we” do, as evidenced by the people willing to pay the price(s)
Grayjay seems to be more stable than NewPipe
If your batteries are dying that fast, you’re doing something wrong.
You’re saying that data centers are replacing batteries constantly…just imagine the labor costs on that (and the down time), not even considering the material cost.
I work in enterprise, and have never heard such a thing. Even my friends in SMB routinely replace UPS’s at the 5-year mark, the same time they replace servers. They rarely replace batteries, at all, it’s so rare that it’s notable.
I like the way you think.
This kind of approach solves so many problems, as the vendors have a vested interest
Who knows?
We know the call center is not US-based, as those can be fined.
I’d venture most are scams too.
Yet Another Call Blocker solves that problem.
I send all calls other than contacts directly to voice mail, and my phone never even rings.
That’s why I just block all calls and send them to voicemail.
If we need a phone call, we’ll schedule it, and we’ll be using an app.
Exactly.
Piracy was “tolerated”, because it stole money from competitors.
Even if a pirate lied and only turned over some of the booty to the crown, it still took it from their enemies.
Good point about platform agnostic remote for management stuff. VNC is ideal for this.
And systems like Proxmox use a web GUI for most stuff, it’s a touch slow but I think that’s mostly just waiting for the system to finish the actual changes I make, and not the UI.
