This is amazing! Thank you!

Also just a suggestion, but would it be possible to move the username and stuff over if there isn't a profile picture?

Mine just looks very offset.

Yeah, I'd avoid the cloud version, but SNMP monitoring on the networked version is nice when you want multiple things to shutdown without relying on a single host.

I don't believe so, I think OP just misremembered 1970.

The 1704067200 is the 2024 new year, in seconds from 1970 (normal Unix time).

I can't say it isn't a fork bomb, but it does happen to match IPv6 address with regex.

Nah, bots normally have a little robot character next to their name.

Apologies for the slow reply

No worries, I'm also not that much of a fast replyer.

Have you disabled auto start in the DHCP profile?

I probably could have been a bit clearer what I mean too: Those profiles with DHCP enabled in network manager should have a 'Connect automatically' toggle, maybe try just turning them off instead of deleting them, and make sure they're turned on for the static IP profile.

I also haven't used Xubuntu in a while, and this is mostly for Debian KDE and Ubuntu, so I'm hoping it's the same.

Edit: Also you should probably think about getting a cheap UPS if you can afford it, if your power is that bad during storms.

I'm probably wrong, but NVRAM suggests that there should be some way to clear it. (Clearing the CMOS might if you can't do it in software)

Woah peertube federating with lemmy is actually really cool!

Additionally, some (mostly electron) apps seem to need XCURSOR_PATH=/run/host/user-share/icons:/run/host/share/icons set as an environment variable for proper cursor theming.

It says that the guest is supposed to have some special software

That sounds like virtio-win. I usually use the iso and mount it from virt-manager, but if the internet is working then I guess you can download the exe.

I'm assuming that I'm supposed to download "libvirtd"

Just searched it up, something like this should work: sudo apt install qemu-kvm libvirt-clients libvirt-daemon-system bridge-utils virtinst libvirt-daemon

Sorry I don't have too much experience with gnome boxes either, I mostly use virt-manager.

I probably wouldn't describe it as similar, but virt-manager is fairly simple but powerful at the same time (like it will let you expose more advanced KVM/QEMU features like PCIe passthrough and similar).

But like the other guy said, gnome boxes is very straight forward and probably more similar in it's simplicity.

They both use QEMU + KVM, so you can have both virt-manager and boxes installed at once, and I believe virt-manager (probably boxes too) easily let you use existing VirtualBox .vdi files, if you've got an existing VM you want to run. Also like I said before, KVM is already mainlined into the Linux kernel, so you don't have to install sketchy kernel modules and stuff.

I've only used VirtualBox once though, so I can't really compare them.
