If you’re just running a few services, and will only ever be running a few services, I agree with you.

The additional burden of starting with proxmox (which is really just debian) is minimal and sets you up for the inevitable deluge of additional services you’ll end up wanting to run in a way that’s extensible and trivially snapshotable.

I was pretty bullish on “I don’t need a hypervisor” for a long time. I regret not jumping all-in on hypervisors earlier, regardless of the services I plan to run. Is the physical MACHINEs purpose to run services and be headless? Hypervisor. That is my conclusion as for what is the least work overall. I am very lazy.

Easily can have multiple LXCs, and being able to take snapshots for backup is probably a nice thing to have if you’re just learning.

And if they get more hardware, moving VMs to other clustered proxmox instances is a snap.

I don’t know much about static electricity and plastic, but would it be sufficient to ground off an arbitrary point in the case to the body of the PSU?

It’s a fucking games conference. Gamify it.

I think what China did well was to let him fucking stew it it. The rest of the world has been putting reciprocal teriffs, but being clear they’re eager to begin negotiations.

China put up the reciprocal teriffs and just said “reach out when you’re ready to be reasonable. Don’t wait for a phone call from us because it isn’t coming.”
