Ipinfo is a geodata DB as a service. You absolutely don’t even need to use it, and it’s completely unnecessary for the functioning of the tool itself.

Your ISP doesn’t allow port or 443. Change those to something else, or reverse proxy 80 to 8080 or whatever.

1. Never put network connectivity on server-class hardware. Low-power devices exist for this reason. Use them.
2. If you need to access your information remotely when you’re away and it’s running on server-class hardware. Don’t. It’s a needless waste of power.
3. If you’re talking about accessing your porn collection when you’re on vacation. Don’t. Enjoy your vacation.

Did you read the original comment???

I’m not talking about snapshots. I’m talking about viewing the RAM of a running instance and having that be useful for anyone who managed to get it. And let me give you two simple reasons why it’s not going to be useful:

• Encryption extensions at the CPU
• Hypervisor resource evictions

Unless you were to go and be on that instance at the exact moment something was happening (or shortly thereafter), that memory is going to be useless.

Now, if someone were absolutely stupid, disabled CPU security extensions at the Hypervisor, AND did something like make a RAM disk and stored something on that-which is really just going out your way to leave a trail-then yeah, maybe you’d get something.

The default of every hosting provider I’m familiar with is encryption by default on absolutely everything from the Hypervisor up except the disk, so I’m seriously doubting the claim of OP unless there is otherwise non-TMB information.

Disk snapshots are another story if unencrypted.

Lol, brah…you apparently have no idea what in the fuck you’re talking about, because a memory is not what OP is talking about 🤣🤣🤣

A memory dump has nothing to do with ESXi, it’s just a thing that has existed forever. The fact you even pulled this out of your ass is absolutely, and shows how dead your knowledge is. Wow.

While this is technically true, there is no provider on the planet that can freeze state of RAM in a way that would be useful for this.

It’s technically feasible to recover data on a laptop’s RAM, but not from a virtualized multi-tenant instance tied to a specific user.

Then you need an Nvidia card. If you’re not using it for gaming and just inference, a lower-end RTX 30XX will get you what you want.

GPU will not improve performance for the surveillance software, just add inference. In fact, adding inference may even slow it down depending on what models it’s using (I’m assuming some variant of Yolo), and how deep you have object detection going. It’s also going to raise your power usage quite a bit, so I’d check the PSU in that machine and make sure that it can handle it. I think the RTX 3050’s can be powered by PCIE slot alone by this point, but you’d better double check whatever card youre considering to be certain. Also check if it even has space for the card.

Need more info. What OS? Does your software even support offloading to GPU? What kinds of GPU do they support and for what types of workloads?

Awesome! Glad you found a solution you like.

Gonna take this in a different direction. Sounds like you mostly want notes with attachments and organization, but you’re just using chat apps for it right now.

Joplin does all the things you’re talking about, including multiple backends and encryption. No need to host a server.

It does not.

The GUI just relegates all commands to the CLI tools under the hood.

GUI doesn’t matter. AMD will always be simpler right now. Nvidia still has all kinds of issues. I think what you want to know is which distro has the fewest issues with Nvidia drivers? Just a guess.

Lolol fucking awesome

Didn’t even realize it was still a functioning company or platform. TIL

Fedora - faster point releases and closer to modern kernels Debian - slow release, but stable Ubuntu - two releases per year, but sticks to older more stable kernel versions Arch - roll your own. Mostly for the very experienced.

Understanding WHY one distro may not work well on your hardware is key though. The above definitions should help with that, but understand that any derivative of one Ubuntu point release will behave exactly as all others out of the box. Meaning anything based on 24.03 will work with the same hardware out of the box because of the kernel version. Switching to a different distro base may yield different results.

Anyone making too much of a big deal about any of these is either over-opinionated and wrong, or absolutely full of shit and doesn’t know what they are talking about. You need what works best for you, and your hardware. If it runs well from a livecd, just go with it.

I think your trouble just stems from inexperience, and not knowing exactly what you needed or where you were heading aside from being off Windows.

You also seem intent on Mint (Ubuntu), which sort of locks you into a specific path.

Unfortunately, that’s how you get there. Lying and harming people.

Recommended specifications from developers are highly subjective, so it would be kind of pointless to really create a database of what “works” because it’s different for who is writing the reviews/reports. If there was a database of what was reported solely from the developer, I guess you’d at least know what it was tested on for the best experience, but that doesn’t mean someone else would rather just get it to play on the lowest settings and experience just to have it work.

Set your desktop resolution to whatever you’re setting gamescope to, then see if it works properly. Turn off DLSS as well.
