That's how I've got mine set up, with OPNsense.
I've been using it a few years and I only know about half the stuff that pfSense/OPNsense can do. So I would advise newbies to just make small changes at a time because there's a whole lot of stuff you can change. It's worth learning, though. I wouldn't use anything else for my main firewall/router nowadays.
PfSense and OPNsense are both killer router "out of the box" distros built on BSD. I say this as a Linux user, with little interest in running BSD for my applications, but... Respect to BSD. ✊
ZFS kicks arse. It's worth learning enough to get a basic array going, with a couple of datasets and encryption. Once you get acquainted with that, you'll be using it for years to come.
This is why I love having luks covering my entire system disk. If I want to upgrade the system with a new drive or move the drive to a different pc or sell it or dispose of it I just dd the first couple of gigs to obliterate the luks header.
It's obviously essential to have a backup strategy, of course, but full disk encryption is the only way to go for me.
It happens in the UK too.
Use an old Pi 3B for running zigbee2mqtt on docker.
I used to run just the Linux version of it but decided to install docker on the Pi so it's as easy as doing docker-compose pull to update it.
This is so I can control my various lights and switches using Home Assistant.
I use a Topping DX1 DAC with Fedora for sending sound to my soundbar. It's great.
Same here. I wonder if it's also regional or depends on your phone/android version?
I signed up a couple of months ago. In United Kingdom. Android 13/OnePlus.
And the ASRock Deskmini range. I'm currently using one with an older Kaby Lake i7 as my Docker host.
You could (carefully) run a dd command to blast the partition data off the drive, in Linux or any Unix based system.
Let's say your drive was recognised as /dev/sdc when you plugged it in.
First, make sure it's unmounted:
Then blast a gigabyte of zeros over the partition information: 2. sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdc bs=1G count=1
The partition information is usually stored on the very first couple of megabytes on the drive, so blasting a gig's worth of zeros linearly onto it should make it show up as an empty device next time you unplug and plug it in.
How would the update affect stuff like a GoCryptFS volume which I mount and use periodically but not all the time? Would those files be processed much faster than previously?
