  • My nas isn't running fedora and thus isn't using whatever fedora uses for network definitions, but is netplan under ubuntu.

    I mean, probably the same thing, but it was shockingly trivial to configure:

     
        
    network:
      ethernets:
        enp0s31f6:
          dhcp4: no
          dhcp6: no
      version: 2
      bridges:
        br0:
          interfaces: [enp0s31f6]
          addresses: [x.x.x.x/24]
          gateway4: x.x.x.x
          nameservers:
            addresses: [x.x.x.x, 8.8.8.8]
          parameters:
            stp: true
            forward-delay: 0
          dhcp4: no
          dhcp6: no
    
      

    Disabled addresses on the physical interface, added the bridge section and told it which interface(s) to bridge - in this case it'd be the real interface and whatever gets added later by qemu/kvm, and then defined the IP address info.

    the virsh network xml file was also straightforward, just make a xml file similar to:

     
        
    <network>
      <name>host-bridge</name>
      <forward mode='bridge'/>
      <bridge name='br0'/>
    </network>
    
      

    and then it's just

     
        
    virsh net-define your.xml.file.here
    virsh net-start the-name-you-used-in-the-xml
    virsh net-autostart the-name-you-used-in-the-xml
    virsh net-list --all
    
      

    Should show up in the net list, and be selectable by name when making a VM

  • That's a configuration problem you've made somewhere: you shouldn't be assigning an IP to the bridge and it's constituent interfaces.

    You should take a look at your network config, and run (I'm assuming) dhcp only for br0.

    Once you define the bridge network in virsh, and use that to make your VMs, kvm/qemu will assign unique MAC addresses to the VMs, so all you really need to sort out is getting your host OS to only assign an IP for the bridge.

    Edit: also checked and yeah, eno2 and br0 and virbr0 are all different MAC addresses; did you maybe pick an option that forces them to inherit a MAC or something?

  • Interesting. I had assumed it went like the other 133 that source mentions.

    Wonder if there's just an extremely over-sized overlap between conservatives who were going to be offended about and willing to boycott and people who drink cheap beer that led to that statistically unusual outcome.

    Also maybe cheap beer is cheap beer and there's limited enough brand loyalty that other types of products don't?

  • My favorite failure was when someone used solid-core cabling for all their patch cables instead of stranded and kept bitching about how unreliable everything was.

    Which, of course, it is when you use the wrong cable and it keeps breaking as you move it around.

  • I was hoping the seditionist traitors would get an extended stay vacation in Kansas courtesy of the Feds.

    Instead, they only got half a cookie and a frowny-face sticker.

    Pretty clear our judicial branch is utterly worthless and probably needs to be completely tossed out and rebuilt. (I mean, more than what the Supreme Court has been doing, even.)

  • You have to wonder how many other things are out there with effectively worthless encryption because some old document or default option told them to/allowed them to implement it without any 'hey! some 14 year old with a TI-83 could crack this key!' warnings.

  • Firefish isn't quite dead yet. There's a new maintainer and they're doing a pretty good job of keeping security patches, bug fixes, and progress to cleaning up and making the code more maintainable happen.

    I've kept my instance up and it's like... fine?

  • It's more about the quality of the content: you posted more than a couple hundred characters and thus were able to clearly outline what you wanted, why, and how you thought that would improve things.

    Mastodon has the twitter problem where it's short-form hot-takes and basically no good long-form content, other than like, to link to somewhere else for the good content.

    I don't have a lot of use for that kind of content especially in a format where it's hard to respond to and have an actual conversation. Most twitter-clone UIs don't do a good job of threading and nesting comments in a way that you can easily follow along and have conversations with the people engaged in discussion.

    I'm old and like the forum-style interface where people can write out a complete thought, engage in a formatted discussion that's easy to follow along with, and does so in a way that lets other people easily hop in at any point.

    So I'd say it's less about the idea of unifying platforms on a single identity (which I think is a great idea and firmly agree that having some sort of Fediverse SSO would make this a lot easier of a sell for less technical users) but more that dumping a pile of low-quality content into a place with reasonably good content isn't actually improving anything.

    (I would also qualify this with a comment that I'm old enough that my first "fediverse service" was FidoNet, so I'm reasonably sure I have a different opinion on the value of a well-designed platform for a single specific task vs making one that can do everything for everyone.)

  • It's funny how this keeps happening, and mostly keeps happening in the same way.

    You'd think after the hundredth time it happens people would start fixing it so you can't simply exploit smart contracts via proxy, but I'm a simple computer janitor so what do I know.

  • As long as it's something you can turn off and remove, that seems like a weird 'I want everything in one place' thing but not utterly destructive of the Lemmy experience.

    It sounded more like stuffing a firehose into your Lemmy UI, at which point all you've really done is just make Lemmy a mastodon client, and I've already got several better options for that anyway.

  • If you want to follow Mastodon hashtags, you should just use Mastodon. It has the UX to support this, and all you'd end up by shoving this into lemmy is a lot of noise in a UI that's designed for replies to a single thread and not just hundreds and hundreds of threads.

  • I'd 2nd this: you're using it for downloading media, so presumably one of the computers is the one running the actual software that's doing that. Just share the drive over the network from there, and pick the best-supported FS on that platform.
