they may have updated the website since the numerous comments here but the about section acknowledges all the libraries they use

Libraries

A big thanks to FFmpeg (audio, video), libvips (images) and Pandoc (documents) for maintaining such excellent libraries for so many years. VERT relies on them to provide you with your conversions.


Looks like that was added in the last day from what I can tell. Glad to see it, but still weird that they aren't links.

> I don't see any glue scripts to get VMs talking to each other

I'm confused by what you mean here? Don't they just use the network like any other computer?

I haven't had to do any special configuration to get my VMs to talk to each other.


VMs usually have their virtual NICs connected to a bridge interface on the host (like a virtual switch) so they can communicate. Proxmox creates one up by default that is also bridged to the physical NIC you set up for management when you install it, so it just works.

In the router case, you'd likely want this default one to be the 'internal' network and have a separate interface (either physical or VLAN) for the WAN.


I am not perfectly informed, but in my case, OPNsense would need to be the only vm with access to the incoming NIC port, and all other VMs and the router would need to use virtual network interfaces only coming from OPNsense for incoming. The router would be the only device with direct access to the outgoing NIC port. None of that seemed incredibly difficult looking into it, but still, it was the type of recipe I was expecting when I saw "Proxmox scripts".

And of course this means that the Proxmox box as a whole should have similar hardening to a typical web server, with minor tweaks to allow residential traffic on various other standard ports. So that hardening would probably be another script I would like to see (I don't know what all the proxmox scripts in the first section do).


VMs already use virtual network interfaces, which are by default bridged to `vmbr0`, a bridge that proxmox creates by default which is also bridged to the hardware NIC. For your use case, you simply want to create a second bridge, e.g. `vmbr1`, which is not bridged to the hardware NIC. You would then assign two virtual NICs to opnsense, one on each bridge (WAN and LAN, essentially) and then choose `vmbr1` as the bridge each time you create an "internal" service behind opnsense.

Since selecting the bridge for a service's NIC is part of setting up each service, the only thing such a "glue script" would be doing is creating the `vmbr1` bridge. That's already a one-liner.


I was looking at a proxmox/(pfsense/opnsense) tutorial the other day. They recommend binding the WAN interface to vmbr1 (or anything other than vmbr0) since VMs are created with their ethernet bridged to vmbr0 by default. This configuration is what most people want so it'll be a little less work setting up networking.


it works in the terminal on a headless server


That’s a plus!


How so? They're in the same ballpark as digital ocean and linode who would be their primary competitors, each of which are roughly a 3rd of the cost of AWS/GC/Azure.


Compared to Hetzner


Hetzner is miserable though


paying 3x less for 2x more compute and 5x more bandwidth allowance and with the EU protections


The population right now is 4x what it was 100 years ago which itself was 2x what it was 100 years before that. so even if our per capita emissions haven't grown (they have, drastically) the graph of total emissions would still be stacked towards the present.


I also had this same issue and found this on the official microsoft blog which also contains info on how to actually enable the new features.

wsl --update; wsl --update --pre-release

EDIT: you also need to be on the latest windows insider build to actually take advantage of the experimental features.


Ford owns several single letter trademarks for the purpose of selling cars. This doesn't prevent people from using the letters for other purposes.


Including the trademark for "Model E", which is why we have the Tesla "Model 3" and S3XY.


The elevator pitch does a pretty good job of explaining the use case imo.


I read that and even downloaded it and tried it, but like the other commenter said, it's just not for me. I don't see any value added compared to just using the docker-compose and docker commands.

I love this developer's other tool, lazygit, which I use every day. And I can see this one is similar quality, even though it doesn't appeal to me personally. Glad it helps some people out though.


It's a perfectly fine objective if you trust your drivers to meet a minimum standard of a good job. It won't work in an adversarial system like Uber where drivers are just numbers but if the drivers are also invested in the success of the platform it's fine.

Given that drivers are driving the shorted distance/time route at the speed limit, treating customers with respect, arriving on time to scheduled pickups, etc. The next thing to focus on is scheduling/filling orders such that drive time is maximised.


China is rapidly decarbonising their transport, faster than any other country.

They also produce the vast majority of the world's solar panels.
