I never dealt with satellite but I have dealt with slow Internet speed for hundreds of users and setting up something like squid proxy helped a lot.

@brandon220 take a look at this blog site about sharing the same data from Samba and NFS.

The latest MeshCentral update has a new login screen.

You’ll have a better experience with using a different a Desktop environment that still uses Xorg for both the login screen and desktop session by default.

left a word out.

would free/truenas run AS a vm in hyper-v?

trying to keep myself busy, it's quieter than a cemetery at midnight atm

I've tried FreeNAS in Hyper-V, Vanilla KVM and Proxmox. But I mainly did because I was curious about it.

Create a login script to rename "C:\Windows\SystemApps\Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge_8wekyb3d8bbwe" to C:\Windows\SystemApps\Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge_8wekyb3d8bbwe_remove" that way you can locate it again if you want to change it in the future.

Does this part _8wekyb3d8bbwe of the filename ever changes after a version/build of Windows 10 update?

Discovering another DNS ad-blocker called eBlocker (https://eblocker.org). I found out about while reading a blog comparing AdGuard Home and Pi-Hole.

Its been a while since I've try this before. But you can use something like virt-builder to most of what you want if you deploying Linux VMs.

Watched Wonder Woman 1984 on HBO Max with the family.

I know with a Windows 10 desktop using Bitlocker, TPM makes it possible for us to not have to enter a password to boot into Windows. I do believe Hyper-V also utilize TPM has well.

Decent movie but maybe not as good as the first. IMDB rating is 5.9 right now while the first had 7.4 which means that most people rate the second as okay/good but not great.

Personally I think it's getting boring that almost every movie involving superheroes is about the end of the world. Every time.

All I know is the movie runtime should have been shortened because there was scenes that didn’t seem necessary.

To use something like LXD, you would install Ubuntu and then LXD.

Excatly, and not KVM -> Ubuntu -> LXD

What will I lose if I went Ubuntu -> LXD

that's what I am thinking .... what are the negatives or potential downsides to this in the future of skipping the whole type 1 virtulization

I haven't used LXD enough to properly give a negative or potential downsides. But I think it really depends on your needs.
There is a nice documentation on LXD that can help answer some of your questions.

Learning how to configure network settings on Ubuntu server.

Fun with /etc/network/interfaces file?

No. Files within /etc/netplan/. Doesn't look too tough; just something I have to become familiar.

netplan, that's new to me. Guess I have some brushing up to do.

Yeah, Netplan replaced ifupdown as the default configuration utility starting with Ubuntu 17.10 Artful.

Wondering where everyone disappeared to this afternoon. I was listening to crickets.

Tickets, nothing but helpdesk tickets for me.
