@Curtis it depends on filesystem. That's why I asked for output of mount command.

RE: Transparent compression on folders in EXT4/XFS etc?
Nope. See this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_file_systems#Allocation_and_layout_policies
Your only options are Btrfs or ZFS. -
RE: Ubuntu 18.04 Space Issue
The error tells you exactly why it's failing. Clean up some space, /var/log/ would be a good place to start. Then re-run that command.

RE: Massive Throughput Loss On WiFi
It looks like the wifi client is only connecting at 802.11g or 802.11a (54Mbit). Is that client capable of 802.11n/ac and wider channel width?

RE: Getting ready to spec new desktops
What's A chip? AMD?
It doesn't really matter for light usage, but Photoshop and InDesign users need real horsepower, you need to spec it like a CAD or 3D workstation, Photoshop will happily use workstation graphics card, I'm not sure about InDesign, it's possible newer version use hardware acceleration too. You don't have to throw Xeons at them, but high end CPUs are definitely in order. And tons of memory, 16GB+

RE: Cloudflare 301/2 Redirects ...
DNS doesn't do url redirects, that's the role for web server. Point both domains at you web host and do redirects there.
I don't know if Squarespace gives you enough control to be able to setup redirects. Hosting website there is a horrible idea anyway, I'd stay away from those website builders as far as you can. -
RE: MS SAM Audit
I got few emails from them too, it says somewhere that these audits are voluntary so I basically told them to pound sand and never to call me again. They did about a year later, and they got the same replay. I actually told them they'd have to pay me $300/h to do the audit, I won't do their work for free.

RE: PHP FPM vs MOD PHP
@Emad-R I use it with Nginx all the time, I use it with Apache too, but I couldn't tell you about performance difference because I never bothered to benchmark it.
As for separation, I do use it in separate docker containers, I think all my instances connect to Nginx. The only place I use it with Apache is on the same VPS, but I see no reason you couldn't separate them and use TCP to connect. -
RE: Has anyone tried Lazy Librarian / Calibre / GoodReads setup?
LazyLibrarian will search and initiate downloads of books, and once download completes it will add it to Calibre library. It's not a software to manage you collection of purchased books, its purpose is to find books on usenet and torrent sites and send these to download clients. It's like Sonarr or Radarr, but for ebooks.

They got caught shipping malware in their products in the past, so it's not unreasonable to suspect them again. Especially when another high ranking employee gets arrested for espionage: https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/huawei-poland-wang-weijing_us_5c3b032ae4b0e0baf53e254b

RE: EdgeOS 2 released
@scottalanmiller It's only $60 for new one (ER-X), so not that bad. I'll have more time to play with the bricked router this weekend, but I'm not putting 2.0 on new one any time soon.

RE: EdgeOS 2 released
Just a quick update, that firmware bricked my router. I was unable to rollback to 1.10.8, and yesterday router brought my entire network down, probably causing packet storm. Every time I'd plug router into the network, non of the devices would communicate, and resetting router to factory settings didn't help either.
-
RE: EdgeOS 2 released
I updated my ER-X and I'm rolling back. Router hangs or reboots randomly, so I'll wait with updating for a while.

RE: How many vCPUs can I have?
My rule of the thumb is start with 1 vCPU if it's Linux vm, 2 vCPUs if it's Windows, unless you enjoy Windows updates or Antivirus scans taking hours to complete....

RE: Which is easier to learn Ansible or Chef or Puppet
@Emad-R said in Which is easier to learn Ansible or Chef or Puppet:
I truly think containers will make CM obsolete. If not already.
Containers are usually managed with CM, so this statement doesn't make much sense. Containers will probably become obsolete long before CM will.

RE: Which is easier to learn Ansible or Chef or Puppet
Ansible is probably the easiest of all configuration management solutions. All you need is Unix machine to start, you don't even need anything on devices you're going to manage, just access with ssh. And ansible syntax is yaml, so very easy to get started. I believe Salt uses yaml too, but it requires agents on machines you're going to manage. Chef and Puppet are a different beasts, very steep learning curve.

RE: OSX Unix Using Brew to install software remotely
Use ansible to install packages with brew. I'm curious, which formula requires user password? It's uncommon for cask packages, and really unheard of for plain brew packages. Perhaps report a bug to brew team.

RE: Fedora 29 Server (or 28) install is stuck...?
I've seen similar hangs when installing over IPMI with virtual media attached. Is that how you installing it? There are also different boot options, I don't recall exact names, but I think it's something like UEFI CD-Rom and Legacy CD-Rom, legacy usually works.

RE: Planning with Potential Clients
You said meetings with potential clients. That sums it up, you're trying to sell them something, so you don't bill for that.
