keep it on cache since I do a lot of code compilation, but I will usually switch it to frequency for gaming and stuff.

Isn’t gaming the most cache-heavy CPU workload there is? The X3D CPUs have consistently topped gaming benchmarks, even outperforming much more modern CPUs that lack 3D cache.

I’d sooner do it the other way around: frequency for compiling, rendering, transcoding, etc. Cache for gaming!

Yep, and then there’s probably a good number of people who have no idea of threat modelling who just copy those actions to say they have “good privacy”.

Tbh, I’m closer to the latter.

The problem with non-PLP drives is that Rook-Ceph will insist that its writes get done in a way that is safe wrt power loss.

For regular consumer drives, that means it has to wait for the cache to be flushed, which takes aaaages (milliseconds!!) and that can cause all kinds of issues. PLP drives have a cache that is safe in the event of power loss, and thus Rook-Ceph is happy to write to cache and consider the operation done.

Again, 1Gb network is not a big deal, not using PLP drives could cause issues.

If you don’t need volsync and don’t need ReadWriteMany, just use Longhorn with its builtin backup system and call it a day.

I tried Longhorn, and ended up concluding that it would not work reliably with Volsync. Volsync (for automatic volume restore on cluster rebuild) is a must for me.

I plan on installing Rook-Ceph. I’m also on 1Gb/s network, so it won’t be fast, but many fellow K8s home opsers are confident it will work.

Rook-ceph does need SSDs with Power Loss Protection (PLP), or it will get extremelly slow (latency). Bandwidth is not as much of an issue. Find some used Samsung PM or SM models, they aren’t expensive.

Longhorn isn’t fussy about consumer SSDs and has its own built-in backup system. It’s not good at ReadWriteMany volumes, but it sounds like you won’t need ReadWriteMany. I suggest you don’t bother with Rook-Ceph yet, as it’s very complex.

Also, join the Home Operations community if you have a Discord account, it’s full of k8s homelabbers.

There will be tougher usecases to migrate. Which, depends on how you use Google.

For example, I’ve never read Google News but am having trouble replacing Keep for synced, widgeted notes (groceries etc) on phone, as well as GSheets for synced, collaborative excel-like sheets with good mobile UX.

Also, I would bundle mail and calendar in one (it’s a single button to import both in Proton and those services are tightly coupled) and check your duplicate browser/chrome mentions

The article says it can debug TUIs, similar to what the browser’s debug panel does for web apps. That is useful for TUI developers.

Other than that, I don’t know either what Kitty is missing.

Finally, the end of “it doesn’t work on Wayland” is in sight. Just in time for Windows 10 EoL too
