Configuring MacOS keyboard shortcuts on KDE Plasma 6

This guide will cover the best way to get MacOS keyboard shortcuts on KDE Plasma 6

Reset existing shortcuts

You've probably been messing with your shortcuts already. I would recommend returning them to their defaults to ensure everything here works as intended.

KDE System Settings -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts
Click the Defaults button, then the Apply button

Github Actions Gotchas

Summary

List of hard to debug issues and unexpected behavior when using Github Actions

Github Actions UI

When you click rerun failed jobs vs rerun all jobs, if you've changed the workflow files being called from another repo, rerun failed jobs will not pick up those changes. To pick up the changes you must use rerun all jobs.

Enable / Disable additional 3rd party cooling on the Dell r630 - by default a 3rd party pcie card will ramp up the fans

apt install ipmitool

Set Third-Party PCIe Card Default Cooling Response Logic To Disabled

ipmitool -I lanplus -H <IPADDRESS> -U <USERNAME> -P <PASSWORD> raw 0x30 0xce 0x00 0x16 0x05 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x05 0x00 0x01 0x00 0x00

Set Third-Party PCIe Card Default Cooling Response Logic To Enabled

Backup a Raspberry Pi to Proxmox Backup Server using the Proxmox Backup Client

This works on a Pi 4, and should work on a Pi 3, but to work on a Pi Zero you would have to figure out how to compile your own client. More info in this thread on the Proxmox forums.

Determine if your Pi is 32bit or 64bit

Run the following command. If you get arm64, it's 64bit, otherwise you'll see armv7l which is 32bit.

uname -m

	#!/bin/bash

	# Spawns a speed test instance for every server in the speedtest --list output (~9 servers)

	# apt install speedtest-cli
	# or
	# python3 -m pip install speedtest-cli

	sptest="speedtest --server "

	# Apply updates and clear apt cache
	echo "Applying updates and clearing apt cache"
	apt update && apt -y upgrade && apt -y autoremove && apt clean

	# Clear this to regen this file (you can't delete it). Otherwise DHCP will give the same IP to every system built with this
	echo "Clearing /etc/machine-id"
	truncate -s0 /etc/machine-id

	echo "Running cloud-init clean"
	cloud-init clean
