If nothing else is triggering it then my advice would be to cherish the feeling while it lasts! Go on dates that don't involve food for a while or stick to lighter food that doesn't involve sitting in a restaurant to eat. Once things start to feel more normal between you then you can try formal meals again.

If she's suggesting restaurants in the meantime then just be honest with her, she'll likely find it sweet and endearing and it'll help to calm the nerves.

Yeah, OP didn't say how long they'd been together but if it's a new relationship after 3 years of being friends, especially if they're young and/or there's been lingering feelings for some time before becoming "official", then anxiety and nervous excitement is likely to be high!

Synology has Container Manager, which is their GUI frontend for Docker, so if it'll run in Docker it'll run on a Syno NAS. I'm running Pihole on mine just fine.

As for the M.2 drives, you can use non-Synology ones as storage. Don't quote me on it but I've a feeling it "just works" in the EU where they're not allowed to force you to use specific brands, but if it doesn't then there's a script that removes the restriction: https://github.com/007revad/Synology_enable_M2_volume

You should check their repo as they have other useful scripts. I'm using the one that enables dedupe on non-SSD volumes myself.

Judging by the amount of random noises my inkjet makes, this dude must go through a lot of printers.

Jesus Christ! A friend of mine exploded a mountain bike tire when trying to inflate it to 100psi, assuming it would be the same as on his racing bike, he said it went off like a grenade. I can't imagine what a car tire would be like.

Mind officially blown! I've just spun up a Debian KDE instance and it's running beautifully. Exactly what I wanted, thank you!

Yes, big fan of XCP-ng, we use it extensively in work, but I'm not convinced it's my best option in this case.

I'm using plenty of containers, accelerated and otherwise, but I also want a full-blown desktop that I can access from wherever. Even on a wired LAN, streaming that desktop is slow and laggy when it's hosted on my NAS, which I think is due to the lack of hardware acceleration on that system. I want to move the VM to a host that has that feature (currently running Ubuntu Server) but I need a hypervisor that doesn't require its own desktop system to be installed in order to manage it.

Plenty of good replies here to help me though.

Well indeed, that's why I want to move the VM off the NAS and onto something with some hardware acceleration. Are there any remote frontend options for KVM?

Yeah, minus the animation it took me a couple hours. Well worth the time spent!

Firefox. I'm fairly convinced it's something to do with UBO or one of the blocklists but I've never taken the time to dig into it properly.

You've reminded me of a similar frustration that I've never found the answer to - though it may be adblock related - in that whenever I open a link to eBay it completely wipes the history for that tab. Or possibly it opens a new tab and kills the parent. Either way I always forget about it until the next time and then it drives me mad all over again.
