  • I have a proxbox with a R5 4600G even under extreme loads the stock cooler is fine. Honestly once prox is setup you don’t need a GPU. The video output of proxmox is just a terminal (Debian) so as long as things are running normally you can do everything through the web interface even without the gpu. I do highly recommend a second GPU (either a G series CPU or a cheap GPU) if you want to try proxmox GPU passthrough. I’ve done it and can say it is extremely difficult to get working reliably with just a single GPU.


  • I’ll freely admit to skimming a bit but yes proxmox can run trunas inside of it. Proxmox is powerful but might be a little frustrating to learn at first. For example by default proxmox expects to use the boot drive for itself and it’s not immediately clear how to change that to use that disk for other things.

    The noctua dh-15 is overkill for that cpu btw unless you’re doing an overclock which I wouldn’t recommend for server use. What’s your plans for the 1060? If using proxmox you’ll want to get one of the “G” series AMD CPUs do that proxmox binds to the apu and then you should be able to do gpu passthrough on the 1060.


  • I’ve been using Kagi for 3 months now I think? And I’ve found it to be extremely useful for research…to a point, my only real issue is that after the first or so series of results it either doesn’t offer anything further or just no longer is showing relevant results to my search. Honestly though I’ve been very happy with Kagi and continue to pay the 10/month but if I do find something even better I’d happily switch. I’m not married to any particular search engine (well …least not to the extent of using Google services).

    If you’re skeptical just give it a try I think they have a trial system in place.















  • I bought it specifically because of it’s shape and it lives in my pocket next to my Leatherman (which is why it has so much wear). Battery life is fantastic and using it even while swimming has caused 0 damage.

    Can’t recommend putting it through a washing machine as the washing machine might suffer some serious damage.

    Also people frequently assume it’s a knife which leads to some interesting conversations.


  • OLight Arkfield been my EDC for about a year now. Gotten me out of countless jams has modes for just about every use case including a super useful “moonlight mode” which is just bright enough to see in really dark places without being blinding. I’ve used it under water, magnetized to various objects, I use it often at my IT job it has been a real trooper. I’m not crazy about the charger for it because it’s a bit proprietary but it does kinda solve the waterproofing issue.
