Apply and see. Worst case is you learn something.
My interviews for linux-related roles were basically, “how do you change directories? What does ls do? How do you edit a file?” (Last one was trickily open-ended to also see what my preferred editor is). I’m not even sure they asked where log files are typically stored.
As for what to put on a resume, just say that you run a home lab or something.
Occasionally some manufacturers use some weird proprietary connection but usually both DVD drives and 3.5" disks use the same SATA connectors. Heck, even in the old IDE/PATA days you could use the same connection on either.
So yeah, the connection is the same and probably will plug and play without any configuration needed
I’ve heard that immich and other picture-organizing software can will something like this?
I don’t have my glasses on right now but just reading the title, sounds like you might want this
So, to be clear, GitHub is not git. Git is intrinsically distributed. GitHub is basically a repository Management service.
I did some googling for about 10 seconds and afaik GitHub does not support any type of self hosting. I know you can selfhost gitlab , but I don’t see a project for either GitHub or gitlab called spokes.
Not knowing anymore than this about what you actually want to accomplish, my advice would be to just figure out how to run your own git server (without the management fluff) and do a 3-2-1 backup scheme. You could of course also create a gitlab instance with an HA set-up, plus backing that up to the cloud.
Empathy is like sharing an experience.
Alice is holding a stack of papers, they get a papercut and react (yelp, pull their hand back, maybe suck on the injury). Bob sees Alice’s experience and may remember when they had gotten a papercut before or just imagine what that experience is like, and will share in the same feelings (or how Bob would imagine Alice is feeling, anyway). Bob may yelp too, or fidget with their own (uninjured) finger.
I just bought some PoE hats for my rpis, and have a managed PoE switch; rumor is, this combo basically translates to rPi WoL.

This has been on my mind, I have yet to do it but the implementation seems trivial.
You can use typical luks full disk encryption with a password. Luks actually has five password slots. Passwords do not have to be actual text, they can be a file or even part of a file.
So my idea is, buy some really cheap, low profile USB flash drives and store some seemingly innocuous data like cat pictures or public domain books, IDK and it doesn’t matter what the actual data is. Use full disk encryption and set a regular password, then add a second password that is a file or part of a file that lives on the flash drives, and have it set up to look for that file on boot as an option for unlocking.
Now the disc is fully encrypted but will boot/reboot without interruption as long as the flash drive is installed. You can remove the flash drive when you’re feeling paranoid, or even better only install it when you are going to be away for a while. If you leave with the machine having the flash drive but are feeling worried, you can remote into the machine and edit / delete the file or just clear the key slot from Luks.
That’s what’s been on my mind, anyway. I think the typical suggestion/solution is to just use drop bear and remotely unlock using that, or don’t use full disk encryption and selectively encrypt your data instead (partitions or userspace encryption).
I’m not going to proofread this so I hope it makes sense
I have not tried Matrix yet but I hear it’s a good replacement, fashioned more to the likes of Discord but I think it has everything you’re looking for
