I usually follow the craft computing video whenever I have to set it up. He has a document in the description with all the things you might need to passthrough a GPU but only like half are needed to passthrough an HBA

Proxmox wiki has a more concise guide IMO

It was really simple to do in Proxmox.

You will find no name brand HBAs in IT mode on eBay for half the price of Intel, Supermicro, Dell, Etc branded ones. Do not buy the no names. I spent a week flashing and reflashing some cheap one, cycling through cables, etc. Nothing.

My supermicro branded one worked absolutely no issue. And I think it was like $40

It probably took a total of 30 minutes to pass it through and build the VM and everything. It took a couple days to rebuild my data from my previous truenas server but I had 10 TB of data on 4 drives.

The only issues I've had have been my own reading comprehension in setting up truenas accounts.

Are you using truenas as the entire homelab?

I also love messing with stuff until it breaks and I learn something, but I've decided I just want my files to be accessible.

So I actually have truenas virtualized with a passed through HBA so I can run proxmox to host all my breakable VMs while leaving truenas alone.

Gilded lead would be so funny.

I like your vague language. It really conveys the sense of mystery and intrigue you're going for.

So Khazars are a real active modern faction? Is it like Kabal practicing Gentile Converts?

Khazar is an interesting new identity to me.

Cursory google search says it was a trade empire that lasted 200 years and converted to Judaism.

Off topic to the rest of the post, but I'm now deeply curious what a modern day Khazar is and what it means to you. Please enlighten me!

A few months ago now, Arizona? Arkansas maybe? Some state legalized "AI powered" home schooling systems. But it was mostly clickbait and the system is less like ChatGPT and more like the YouTube Algorithm machine learning. It takes into account the stuff that students do well at and let's them advance beyond "grade level" limitations while also learning how to present problem areas in ways the student responds to.

I had asked my home schooled AI researcher buddy his thoughts and he obviously liked it. I like the idea too, but my hang up was on socializing kids. That to me is the more important role of schools.

I wouldn't trust an LLM in this set up though. A human tutor would still need to step in for questions outside of a FAQ IMO. I love working with an LLM by giving it all the manuals, guides, and config files I used then asking where I went wrong because it can usually give me a good enough interpretation to see where to go next. But that's just a rubber duck. My mind and skills are developed. A kid learning math for Tue first time can't do that.

As a floatplane subscriber, you're really not missing much. I don't even watch most of the exclusives.

Oh the rossman video.

I hate how obsessed on dumb shit he gets. The man is legitimately doing great work usually, and then he takes something minor that an otherwise ally says or does and blows it out of proportion.

This man would have made a great tankie. Unfortunately he made a whole 20 minute video on why AOC is stupid for saying unskilled labor doesn't exist and then explaining exactly the points she was making.

I legitimately love this mans work and I wanna support him, but man is he petty.
