So it’s either a Chrome thing or a Mac and Chrome thing.

Neither really, it’s a font thing. I see a wooden wheel in the page title, a car wheel in my tab bar, and it’s missing in the window title.

Healthcare could definitely be better, but 67% of Americans are satisfied with their insurance.

No offense, but this sounds a bit like asking the congenitally blind if they miss seeing.

Yes for 16 of the 33 seconds the video is long, and only to have his point epically refuted in the rest of it. Invest the 33 seconds, it’s worth it to be aware of this small piece of internet history.

Would really like to see the conclusion to SGU although that seems unlikely at this point… Anyway, let’s hope for the best with the (hopefully) upcoming Amazon/MGM thingy.

1. What would be the advantage of running Nextcloud as a docker, instead of within a VM?

   • No idea really beyond the usual VM/container trade-offs, I guess it would allow you to use orchestration tools and similar for Docker.

2. What would be a sensible way to have an incremental/differential backup of the VM/Docker?

   • If you use Proxmox as your hypervisor it comes with a sophisticated backup solution, probably the same for ESXi or whatever. Not sure about Docker.

3. The storage usage of my Nextcloud instance exceeds 1TB. If I run it within a VM, I will have to connect it to a 2TB SSD. Does it make sense to add the external storage space to the VM? […]

   • That’s what I would do at least. Connecting external storage space to a VM/container is relatively trivial and Nextcloud recommends to separate binaries and data directory anyway. Plus this allows you to use different backup strategies for data versus binaries+metadata.

In case you haven’t yet, I’d also recommend taking a look at this: https://github.com/nextcloud/vm

It’s basically a collection of three shell scripts to install, manage, and update Nextcloud. Last time I tried it also worked on LXC/LXD, not only VMs. It would probably work on Docker as well and has some files related to that in the migrate/docker directory.
