To the average tune of about 15-65 cents per month if running 24/7

Upgrading? Regularly? stares at 25x2TB ancient array

I feel this so hard. I managed to get Bottles to run most things but the few I struggled with I’m always told others got it to run with Lutris. Okay but how? Because everything I’ve tried with Lutris failed.

After spending quite some time troubleshooting years ago, I chopped up the odd NFS disconnection once every month or two to random network errors. Autofs looks like it’ll work but my bandaid solution was just to add a mount command to the NFS share in cron every 5 minutes. Took me 15 seconds and haven’t had to look at it since.

This speaks to my soul so much. I started at a non profit 2 years ago and it pains me how much the company spends on Oracle and docker now and no one does anything about it. So much of our infrastructure is built to rely on these things that we can’t just do without them when they do crazy shit like this. And Oracle and docker can afford to do this as long as a few cash cows hang on like us. Hostage is the worst and best description.
