U Turn Tips
  • Yeah I think I need to practice in a car park I have just been practicing on a quiet street but every time it feels like I am going to tip over or not make the turn.

    When I do make it I never feel like I did from skill more from luck.

  • U Turn Tips

    In my country as part of the test for you fill licence you need to perform some manoeuvres one of them being a U Turn on a normal 2 lane road, usually done in a quiet housing estate.

    I have been practicing but I am struggling to get it consistently, just wondering if anyone here has any tips!

    A lack of gear talk around here.
  • Some pretty good information here thanks, I never really have a folding ear issue but I do wear a mask 90% of the time.

    Interesting I never even thought about, could definitely see myself making the same mistake walking in somewhere blasting music from my helmet haha

  • A lack of gear talk around here.
  • I've been looking at getting an intercom system, probably looking at a Cardo Spirit but I know Scorpion have the ExoCom that is designed to work with their helmets (I have a Scorpion helmet). However I think I prefer the Cardo so that I have something that is helmet agnostic and should work with any helmet I get in the future.

    The rest of my gear is pretty entry level, I've only been riding since September 2024 so I haven't felt the need to upgrade my gear, first thing is to upgrade the bike once I get my full licence

  • Darktable Filters

    Hi, I am fairly new to editing photos and was wondering if anyone has a repository of filters they use in Darktable. I want to be able to import a photo select a filter and then adjust as needed. I haven't been able to find any filters like the VSCO filters that I can download and import to Darktable. If anyone has anything like this or any tips for me that would be great.

    Help with lxc write access
  • No problem, as far as I can understand that is the easiest solution I don't see the problem with privileged containers if they are local in your network. I think I will test with NFS instead of smb/cifs and check the user access as @gaylord_fartmaster@lemmy.world mentioned above.

  • Help with lxc write access
  • There is no reason as far as I learn more this was probably not the best way to set it up but I was just following guides to learn. The goal in the future is to build a bigger storage server and run something like TrueNas. I will look into NFS3 though it could solve some of my problems with the current setup.

  • Help with lxc write access
  • I can ping the fileserver and reach I can map the drive from calibre for example but it does not have write persmissions.

    Maybe I am mounting incorrectly I mounted with mount -t cifs username=username \\fileserverIP\folder \mnt\smb_share

    This works for 1 of my lxc that is privileged but does not work the unprivileged ones

  • Help with lxc write access

    I need some help with my setup please, I am fairly new to selfhosting and the information I found searching hasn't helped me understand what is wrong. But I have miniPC running proxmox with all my stuff running jellyfin/arr stack etc. I then have another machine running my file share using SMB (maybe this is the wrong way to do it). I can add the share to my datacenter in proxmox and see it and but I cannot get my unprivileged container to write to the share. I can get privileged containers to write when I mount using cifs but this I read this is bad practice.

    I have changed permissions on the file share to try give write access, I have tried Option 3 from this link I have been through this reddit thread and others.

    Should I just make the lxc's that need to access the file privileged or is there something I am just not understanding here. I assumed this would be a fairly common setup and be fairly easy to configure but I am often wrong.

    UPDATE: I changed to use NFS to manage the files and followed this guide allowing both the lxc and the main node on proxmox access to the files and this has solved the issues for me. My file share is just shared from a Debian server I am hosting potentially I will come across this issues when I swap to TrueNas in the future.

    Preferred RSS/Newsfeed Reader Solutions?
  • I was using Feedly but I deleted my account and when I created a new one they only allow 3 folders on the free tier so I started to use NewsBlur instead been pretty happy with it. It's nice it can pull the whole text of the article so you don't have to go to another site to read the full text.

  • Suggestion: Weekly, what are you reading posts?

    I think it would be interesting to do weekly what are you reading posts to generate some discussion around what people are currently enjoying or not enjoying
