Having access to all Google Fonts is crucial for any designer these days, so this script is pretty much essential whenever you make a fresh install of your OS.

Look at this motherfucking piece of stupid shit
We don’t see any content on your website, so it must be fraud

No, you can’t make this shit up. You can actually read about it in this article on their piss poor excuse of a knowledgebase here.
2005:
Wasn’t particularly an eventful year.
Lots of things hasn’t happened yet.
The first iPhone wasn’t due for another 2 years.
I wasn’t even in college, just a kid fresh out of High School.
And yet one thing made that year particularly memorable to me, to all of my family.
This guy right here.
I still remember vividly the day he came into our lives, such tiny little creature, with piercing blue eyes. So small and yet nothing seems to be scaring him. Footsteps, loud noises, nothing could even make him turn his head.
(We soon found out that’s because he’s completely, utterly deaf 
which is also why he never had a formal name, because nobody could’ve called him. He was simply known as “The Snowball”)
Then he’d proceed to spend the next 14 years of his life brightening up our days, without fail.
Today is no different really. After spending most of the days being awesome, he took a hearty meal from his favorite bow, went back to his favorite box, took a nap, and decided not to wake up again.
Today is a beautiful autumn day. I guess if you could choose how and when to go, today is as good as any.
Still, it’s never easy losing a friend who was with you for almost half your life.
2005-2019
Rest in peace buddy, you may have left our lives, but you will never leave our hearts.
If you use VPSSIM or any other administration script in your VPS or GC VM Instance, you’re probably finding yourself unable to copy or modify anything when connecting to your server using WinSCP.
The reason is that, by default, your server is configured to only allow key pairing authentication, so in order to login as a regular user, you have to do 2 things. First, enable password authentication and secondly, enable Login as Root
To connect as Root, you first need to set a password for your Root user (sudo passwd), then allow logging in remotely as root. To do so, fire up your /etc/ssh/sshd_config
nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config
Add a line in the Authentication section of the file that says PermitRootLogin yes. This line may already exist and be commented out with a “#”. In this case, remove the “#”.
# Authentication: #LoginGraceTime 2m PermitRootLogin yes #StrictModes yes #MaxAuthTries 6 #MaxSessions 10
Scroll down a few lines and change this line:
# To disable tunneled clear text passwords, change to no here! #PasswordAuthentication yes #PermitEmptyPasswords no PasswordAuthentication yes
Save the updated /etc/ssh/sshd_config file and restart the SSH server (service sshd restart)
Should be good to go now
And it’s fucking amazing!
To day I came across this article on Wikipedia about Urashima Tarō, and I was like
“Wait a minute,
That’s Từ Thức right?
That’s it, that’s fucking Từ Thức gặp tiên!”
And that’s all I got for today folks, sorry if I am boring.
My often spend my scarce free time teaching myself new things (when I don’t feel like DIYing useless shits). I’ve spent the last few weekends teaching myself around Google Cloud platform (and later on, Amazon Web Services). What I learned most from those experiences is that: my knowledge regarding networking and virtualization was close to non-existent and if anything, I need to go back to practice on a local environment where I have access to all the hardwares before I even think about dirtying my hands with cloud implementations.
And that’s how I came to join r/HomeLab and subsequently r/HomeServer. Now I’ve been told before that these subs will more likely discourage you from building your own homelab rather than encouraging it, as they will make whatever you build feel puny in comparison, but I didn’t expect some people to build a freaking datacenter in their garages. While many of those guys got the hardwares for free from work, I know some of those people dropped hundred of thousands dollar into hardware purchases. Homelabbing is, in a way, similar to photography or music or even toy collection, once it become a hardcore hobby it gets rather expensive.
As a photographer I don’t feel like I can afford to sink my wallet into yet another expensive hobby, and as such I decided to do it my way, the thrifty, cheapskate way.
Meet my Nam Vu home server, the cheapest, most ghetto machine you can imagine:
Hardware specs:
• Intel Core2Quad Q6600 @3.0Ghz (tapemodded) ~$5
• Lenovo MTQ45NK Motherboard ~$15
• 4x2GB DDR3 1333Mhz Memory ~$12
• 320GB Toshiba HDD ~$13
This machine will be dual booting Proxmox 6 and Windows 10 LTSC.
Why bother having Windows when you can have it running under Proxmox you ask? Well I need Windows for a lot of different applications (like sync clients for many cloud storage services), plus the Remote Desktop feature blows TeamViewer and AnyDesk out of the water. And for those applications I want the best performance I can get, which is hardly achievable if you run it under a hypervisor with this ghetto hardware.
Now Proxmox doesn’t recommend dual booting with anything, in fact its default installer ISO doesn’t even include an option for you to partition your drive, so if you want a dual boot configuration your only hope is to setup Debian to run along side Windows first, and then installing Proxmox VE on top of Debian. I will be covering the steps in my next posts, they are fairly simple to setup at first but there’s a couple of issues that you might run into along the way.
