Hey y'all! Building out a portable Linux setup from an orange pi 5 & looking for some hands-free style display.

I'm open to a lot of options, but I was wondering if anyone had experience with HMD options. I've seen Vufine+ used options around $100 USD on eBay that seem cool, but I'd like to go crazy wireless if possible

Current plan is to take a split BT keeb, mount one on each thigh (maybe bicep? But seems more restricting to type with, TBD), and mount a wireless track ball next to it. Then, with a HMD where I can kinda see, I could walk around running a full system IRL. I think it'd be sickkkk but lmk if y'all have any good HMD or transparent display reqs that I could walk around with attached to my body

Hey y'all, looking to land my first DevOps Engineering role soon, and figured I should use enterprise software as much as possible for some resume building and personal practice.

For reference, I've set up a NAS server once before but haven't got too much experience outside of that. Basing this on some DevOps Engineers I've talked to IRL and some friends who hire engineers, but wanted extra community feedback.

Use case: parents are data hoarders, probably have at least 4tb saved composed of every type of media you can think of, so hopefully the whole family can use this when I'm done with it all. Otherwise, aiming to be able to claim experience with enterprise grade DevOps software.

Some of this is personal research, a lot of Reddit research, and some LLM comparisons used to choose between two software systems. Please let me know what you'd keep or change! I'm still kinda new to this :p

Somewhat self explainatory, but here's some details for use cases:

• Approx. 20 person law firm with 3 lawyers
• Currently needing robust custom reporting, we're making it work in a roundabout way currently but they want more details and more reports
• It's a small business currently, but they're growing pretty fast and will need scalability
• I'm their systems engineer currently, but could easily transition to a Salesforce admin & dev.

Does anyone have experience choosing between custom Salesforce solutions or just getting the Litify Personal Injury package?

I'm pretty sure Litify wouldn't remove our ability to have custom reporting dashboards and pages for each role, but I can't find much about what utility Litify packages would have that Salesforce doesn't other than offering a preset for Salesforce.

There's two of us with technical background, and the lawyers are trusting us to make a solid decision on what software the company would need to set up a good, scalable system they can keep for as long as possible. We were pretty set on Salesforce, but Litify kept coming up as a suggestion.

Hey friends. I'm required to use MS Excel, it can't be anything other than Excel due to frequency macro and PowerQuery use (proprietary bullshit but there's not an alternative). I've been dual booting windows but saw someone with Kubuntu and what looked like the new Excel running, does anyone know if there's a work around?
