Introduction

Docker.app will complain about incompatible processor, so we will use Docker Machine.

Instalation

Download Docker for Mac (Docker.app). It contains some binaries that are necessary.

brew install virtualbox docker-machine

Proxmox - SPICE client setup for MacOS

Install a working (and compiled) version of virt-viewer. You may view the homebrew package's upstream source on GitHub.
```
brew tap jeffreywildman/homebrew-virt-manager
brew install virt-viewer
```
Once that's installed should be able make a call remote-viewer with a pve-spice.vv file downloaded from proxmox web interface

About

I faced bandwidth issues between a WG Peer and a WG server. Download bandwidth when downloading from WG Server to WG peer was reduced significantly and upload bandwidth was practically non existent.
I found a few reddit posts that said that we need to choose the right MTU. So I wrote a script to find an optimal MTU.
Ideally I would have liked to have run all possible MTU configurations for both WG Server and WG Peer but for simplicity I choose to fix the WG Server to the original 1420 MTU and tried all MTUs from 1280 to 1500 for the WG Peer.

Testing

On WG server, I started an iperf3 server
On WG peer, I wrote a script that does the following:
- wg-quick down wg0
Edit MTU in the /etc/wireguard/wg0.conf file

Update firmware WD Black SN770 firmware on Arch Linux

Been having problems with my new SN770 drive, and decided to check if I can firmware update it on Linux. WD only provides a Windows tool, Western Digital Dashboard to download and install firmwares, but, it's possible to find the firmware and install it using Linux tooling as well.

1. Check that `nvme-cli` is installed:

❱ sudo pacman -S nvme-cli
