This is just Time Cube or the Carnicom Chemtrails site rehashed. Buncha bullshit. Sure, the author (found a name. Rowan Brad Quni) is discussing some actual physics concepts, but none of this is new or even controversial. Acting like information theory is some sort of conspiracy against reality is just not going to move any subject forward.

Don't bother trying to interpret their point.
Here. Some actual info.

This is the correct answer. No, we are not doctors. Yes, it is known that shingles does NOT go away and re-occurs in about 1-10 cases if left untreated. The treatment is a highly effective vaccine that if you are of age you should definitely get regardless of if you've had a shingles flareup previously.

Boy. You asked about Proxmox. Nobody said anything.

How does Proxmox make it easier? Have you used it? All sorts of ways. Like, its a full virtual infrastructure management system instead of just an OS. Proxmox loves ZFS. It does many of the things you've mentioned here.

Proxmox does have its own backup system that can work with an NFS target or with their smart dedupe storage and replication server product. https://www.proxmox.com/en/products/proxmox-backup-server/overview

You've got some pretty advanced ideas and perhaps have already moved beyond the Proxmox question. But if you are curious and haven't used it, spin up a server and give it a whirl.

Who cares? It's over and done. Too late.

You are not done with this disease. It can happen to you again.

The obvious conclusion is: Get the vax.

They don't mention it here, but there appears to be a similar broad positive effect from pretty much any vaccination. It seems that firing up the immune system is generally good for you, and the benefits spread to areas seemingly unrelated to the shot itself. This is relatively new info to me. I've never done the seasonal flu vaccine, but I'm going to start, for exactly this reason. Well, that and I'll be there anyway for covid shots ...

I'll go farther and say that its wrong. Evolution may be a random walk, but random walk is a method of getting places. Evolution random walks to the next needed feature. Evolution is not at all blind.

Do it. Jump in. Just start with whatever you can assemble.
It's a great way to keep your room warm.

I don't know about the Ubuntu LCX. I don't container much.

I'd do this with a virtual machine and TrueNAS. Those are just the tools I like to use. The TrueNAS Scale ISO will install qemu-guest-agent, so you don't need to worry about drivers. Make sure to build it with Virtio SCSI Single disk controllers. Use one 50gb OS disk for the install. Add huge data disk(s) after the install.
Promox Disk options ... SSD emulation, Discard, IO Thread, No cache ... and I use Write Back (unsafe). Use the Virtio NIC.

And try it again. Hopefully faster this time.
