Run Proxmox Backup Server (PBS) on a Proxmox VE host

Rather than set up even more infrastructure, I run Proxmox Backup Server on the same machine that's running a Proxmox VE host.

Install Proxmox Backup Server

Open a shell on your Proxmox VE host. We'll be installing PBS alongside Proxmox VE at the OS level. We will NOT run PBS inside a container.

Gemini Lake Hardware-accelerated Transcoding

This is for a used Wyse 5070 I recently purchased, having the J5005 CPU and a huge 8 GB RAM all running on AlmaLinux 9.1. Why AlmaLinux? Because I'm partial to RHEL-based systems with its focus on stability, that's all. Unfortunately the downside is that oftentimes new software isn't readily available.

I want to unlock the ability to perform hardware-accelerated transcoding in ffmpeg so I can use it in Tdarr as a decent remote transcoding node.

Intel ARK - Pentium Silver J5005 shows that the CPU has Quick Sync Video support, and as such supports some form of hardware video acceleration.

The CPU is Gemini Lake and uses Intel UHD Graphics 605, which is Gen 9.5 according to the ffmpeg wiki. The machine should be able

Subject: [PATCH] Add a lockdown_hibernate parameter

This allows the user to tell the kernel that they know better (namely,
they secured their swap properly), and that it can enable hibernation.

Discord Timestamps

Discord timestamps can be useful for specifying a date/time across multiple users time zones. They work with the Unix Timestamp format and can be posted by regular users as well as bots and applications.

The Epoch Unix Time Stamp Converter is a good way to quickly generate a timestamp. For the examples below I will be using the Time Stamp of 1543392060, which represents November 28th, 2018 at 09:01:00 hours for my local time zone (GMT+0100 Central European Standard Time).

Formatting

Style	Input	Output (12-hour clock)	Output (24-hour clock)
Default	<t:1543392060>	November 28, 2018 9:01 AM	28 November 2018 09:01

hi, and goodbye

The past few weeks has not been fun on IRC, the drama based on false information and assumptions has been insane. I've almost entirely been silent on the drama because I know the fallout that would happen if I spoke up.

A quick TLDR - I'm quitting all IRC development. KiwiIRC project lead, IRCv3 technical board, supporting the multitude of IRC networks, the lot.

Many people seem to think that I am supporting one side in everything that is going on, so just to be clear: I am not supporting any side of the current freenode drama - there is so much false information going around from everywhere that it is impossible to support anybody.
