@scotth

They are both great, but when you want to scale you want them on hardware and not VM that will handicap your hypervisor.

When you think about hardware and low power, there are alot of alterantives better than those 2 and cheaper, netgate provides PFsense but for 200$ ad the idea of desktop machine acting as router and using alot of power does not make sense to me.

However pi3 or better makes perfect sense, but guess what neither PFsense or OPN runs on ARM

After my lab, I'm planning to load it up on an HP Elite 8300 SFF i5 quad core with 8 GB RAM and an addin dual Intel NIC. It's what I'm running Sophos on now. I don't experience any issues with this setup.
I picked it up for $100 during a desktop refresh.
EDIT: I'm also planning retire my spinning drive.

For home use - a desktop class machine is totally fine.
Not sure an SSD will make any difference in the performance of the firewall though.

SSD will help squid proxy cache.

I wish I had that much time to watch TV....

I still have not seen Altered Carbon season 2, because I refuse to watch it on a small screen and I don't have time to sit in the family room and watch it on the big screen.

Well time when my kids are not there.

I will watch Castlevania while on the treadmill, so I'll start it tonight.

I’m one of those types that don’t sleep until one or two in the morning.

I‘ve finished some series like JoJo’s bizarre adventure and Altered Carbon on my phone.

You finished JoJO already ?!?!?!?!

I do a lot of binge watching.

I tested with Feodra 29 / Gnome and it installs, but doesn't give remote screen.

Even after logging in?

Yeah. I did install from a Net-install disc. I'll try again with the full 1.8gb image. I just took whatever the default options were when installing.

You might have to force Xorg to the default and not Wayland. That's the only reason why Ubuntu 18.10 made it on the list that works because it defaults to Xorg.

Yeah, I was aware of Fedora 29 defaulting to Wayland. I wonder if running the Cinnamon Desktop makes it default to X?

Cinnamon doesn't support Wayland. It can either do software or hardware rendering.

Anyone heard of this universal database tool?
There's a community or enterprise edition and it supports a good amount of different databases.

The community edition is pretty easy to install using chocolatey, homebrew, and flathub.

Yup, time for Pi-Hole to support DNS over HTTPS.

Isn't this DNS over HTTPS?

While browsing Netflix, look what's trending now.

I'm able to connect to the Desktop on Fedora 29 Gnome (Xorg). At the lock screen too.

Two Christmas ago, I purchased this for my wife and daughter.

I'm watching a DOOM Eternal walk-through and it looks bad ass.

Fast forward >>>> I was evaluating DMS and it seems like OpenKM did change the code, as it appears to not require any client-side java anymore.

https://demo.openkm.com/OpenKM/login

Yeah, seems like it has updated a lot.

For Linux, its like they only support LTS distros.
A little behind the time for Windows support.

Looking for a Color Multifunction Printer under $400 that doesn't suck based on reviews. My goodness, the number of promising printers (based on feature set) that have a 30% hate rating is unreal!

We use a Brother. It's okay.

Works great with Linux and Mac too.

setenforce is not a permanent solution. Has soon as you reboot, the setting will revert back to enforcing.
