"I built a home lab to gain control; my network decided chaos was far more entertaining."
Recently was given a T300RS Thustmaster Wheel, kept [alt] + [tab] ‘ing out of the game to configure the options. When re-joining my game I could not exit out of the menu screen.
After a little hunting on the internet I found you can flick to windowed mode, then fullscreen and this solves the issue.
Or if you prefer a shortcut:
[alt] + [enter]Do this twice, and your game should flick to windowed mode then back to fullscreen.

Common Nextcloud first run error. Usually appears after changing the /data location.
In my case, it was when I setup Nextcloud to use my Windows NAS.
The easiest solution is to edit the config.php file on your install server (change the path to reflect your install location).
A) For regular installation:
sudo nano /var/www/nextcloud/config/config.php
B) For Docker
sudo docker exec -it nextcloud /bin/bashnano /config/www/nextcloud/config/config.php
In here we can add the line
'check_data_directory_permissions' => false,[ctrl] + [x], then [y] to save, then [enter] to write and close.
This will skip the permission check and allow use of the mounted storage.
Much easier way than dealing with permissions and messing with fstab.

One major hurdle I had when starting off was being able to use my NAS (Network Attached Storage) with my Linux VM’s (Virtual Machines).
Debian 11 is my flavour of choice, with cifs-utils being installed as a prerequisite.
Linux needs to mount the shares on bootup to achieve maximum uptime and autonomy. I achieved in editing the fstab file.
sudo nano /etc/fstab
This allows me to edit the Linux system’s filesystem table.
Scrolling down to the bottom, I added these lines, replacing everything in the brackets with my configuration.
//[URL]/[sharename] /media/[mountpoint] cifs vers=3.0,credentials=/home/[username]/.sharelogin,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,uid=[username],gid=[username],nofail 0 0
To not have my share login info so easily accessible, I placed them in them in a file called ‘credentials’ located in the /home/[username] directory with permissions -rw------- and it is owned by my user.
sudo nano /home/[username]/.sharelogin
The layout of this file:
username=[username]
password=[password]
domain=[domain]
I currently only use username and password for my shares so remove the domain altogether from the file.
