How ironic, this is a perfect example of the kind of thing the article is describing lol

That’s a bunch of words that have no meaning whatsoever. It’s like saying European colonialism captured 99% of the European Union lol.

You also clearly have no idea what pan-arabism is.

Work on my homelab, I enjoy it :)

STOP!

Uncommon command. If he’s walking or running, stop means stop and stay put.

Edit: formatting, as per OP’s request.

Pretty similar. Not sure what OMV uses as a FS but Rockstor natively uses btrfs (a FS I used for years and trust) so it was a no brainer for me. Everything else works as expected, nfs, smb, snapshots, backups, etc. The only add on I decided to use on top of Rockstor itself is for Duplicati for B2 backups. I hear a lot of good things about FreeNas too.

It’s really not complicated. Look up Truenas or Rockstor. Both are solid NAS OSs. I’ve been running Rockstor for about a year now (partly because I’m a huge fan of btrfs) and I’m pretty happy with it. Make sure to keep an offline backup on an external drive just in case you mess something up. I manually plug in a drive about once a month for that. I think DIY is more fun anyway ;) and I’m sure the community will help with questions you can’t find answers to online. Good luck!

Agreed. Especially when reliable storage only costs $4-$6/tb these days. (Where I live that won’t buy you a freaking cup of coffee lol). I only back up to the cloud and pay for my important data anyway, I have terabytes of data that I don’t mind losing and therefore don’t bother backing up to the cloud.

I’ll just say this: you get what you pay for. I used pCloud a few years ago and wasn’t able to retrieve all my data, some files got corrupted (luckily I had backups). Now I use a DIY NAS and backup to B2.

This is hilarious. I love it haha

Been using Tuta for over 4 years now with several domains. Never had any issues. The price is also very affordable.

Believe it or not, with the right skill set (ie if you have skills that employers are looking for) you won’t even need to apply. Headhunters WILL find your linkedin. Right now the market is noticeably slow and thousands of IT professionals got laid off in the last few months alone. The economy will recover soon though so maybe get ready for when that happens by learning new skills. AI, big data, IaC, etc are all in demand.

3 (all contracts and by choice). But I did at least a dozen interviews in the same period and no one ever asked about any diplomas.

That’s a lot of good advice here. I just want to add that you absolutely do not need to go back to school. I’m 100% self-taught, work in “DevOps” and not a single employer in the last 6 years has asked me about my education or credentials. I enjoy it and it pays well. You don’t have to do DevOps though. Lots of jobs in IT and employers are competing for skills.
