The issue is that I can’t really fit all of the data somewhere else. Can I shove it onto the 4TB drive and then mount it on a new proxmox install and recover from there?
The answer was a resounding no

It might not be, but I am intimately familiar with it. It’s proxmox itself that’s the wildcard here. I will shrink the LVM and then DD it to the new disk.
Couldn’t I just shrink a partition myself? I could clone the LXCs to the 4TB drive and just shrink the LVM partition significantly. DD the disks, recreate the LVM on the new SSD and move em back, right?
Using a larger disk isn’t an option, unfortunately. I don’t have that kind of money.
Hosting videogames on a dedicated box for me and the boys when I was 16 got me more interested in networking and when I had finished my mostly unrelated education, I pivoted hard to IT. I don’t currently work in IT and I don’t know if I ever will again because my handicap and location make it hard to find jobs but essentially:
Self-hosting came first, then came the tech ‘background’.
It could also be that they simply don’t want to deal with this themselves anymore, but don’t want to sunset it. Giving it to WINE lets it stay alive and they get to collect good-boy credits from people who still have faith in MS.
That still wouldn’t get past your firewall
All of my services run on LXC containers. Some files and configs are backed up to NAS and offsite. The containers are snapshotted in their entirety before I do any work on them. A snapshot takes 5 seconds to make and causes no downtime. If I regret a change or mess it up, I can restore the snapshot in under a minute at the cost of some seconds of downtime.
My only non-container machines are my desktop (doesn’t count), my NAS and the Hypervisor. The Hypervisor is very clean and wouldn’t be much fuss to reinstall and the NAS is literally just Debian with NFS. All of these have a regular rsync which runs to backup the important files.
By having it be a container
Do you have more information about this? I would love to read more.
I kind of miss Unity in the same way I miss Windows XP; I would never use it now but it has a place in my heart.
I’ve been “on” linux for a decade and even ran it on my desktop without dualbooting for months at a time back in the Ubuntu 16 days. A few months ago I’d had enough of the Microsoftisms and installed straight Debian with i3wm on my desktop with intentions of dualbooting Windows for the rare graphical work I do. Maybe once a month. I managed to boot that thing 8 times, none without issues, before it finally stopped booting alltogether and I spent 14 hours yesterday trying to reinstall it to no success. It would commit suicide on second boot consistently and I said well dog darnit then. I guess I have to bite this bullet and learn how to do my graphical workflow on Linux.
Honestly, I should have done that sooner. I’m now Adobe and Windows free and I have literally no reason to go back. There’s nothing I need or miss. All my games work (thanks valve) and all my creative tools are here in some capacity. There aren’t many bugs I encounter daily in i3wm, and none are showstoppers.
Shoutout to Blender for being superior to industry standards, and Darktable for being good enough.
Or they see the writing on the wall
Well, obviously they don’t want you to!
You sound like you have zero costumer contact, thank god
we are not obliged to accept it here.
He wasn’t obligated to respond at all. He choose to be unchill. He wasn’t even the person they replied to, and neither are you the person I replied to. Seems to me like you guys just wanna complain!
bro chill
I don’t think you understand. I know privacy extension is for outbound and not inbound, but what use is it on a server?
I think there’s some misunderstanding
I get how IPv6 works, I got a /48 from my ISP. The problem is that I have some 15 devices here that I have to refer to in DNS and either I have to change their static IPs or I have to change their IPs in DNS if the prefix ever changes (it shouldn’t, because I pay for them to not do that). My laptop, phone and desktop do not get a static IPv6 and use the privacy extension. Is that not how you’re supposed to do it?
if your prefix ever changes you’ll have to update it everywhere
I mean that’s a good point but I’m paying money to not have my prefix changed. If I were to do it the intended way using DNS, how would I set up the DNS to be prefix agnostic? How would I reference devices in the firewall?
Amazon gave me a partial refund for something that arrived with defects and then I requested a full refund because it turns out it was way more broken than I initially thought in exchange for sending it back but I never sent it back and they just approved the full refund.
There is nobody in charge at Amazon costumer support
