Hello, I have a rather complicated need to use a gre tunnel and I am having difficulty getting it working. The tunnel is between my home server and Oracle VM. Below is a picture of the topology with config.

Pings between the home server and Oracle VM over the gre tunnel do not seem to be going through as evidenced by tcpdump. I do notice however that the firewall has the correct state table showing that address translation. I am certain that both machines' firewalls are not dropping packets because iptables is not showing anything dropped. I am at a loss here so I welcome any ideas.

Hey! Does anybody have any information about if and when a company might offer ARM64 for general desktop use? I would like to build my own in the same way that I might build a desktop PC out of an Intel or AMD processor.

EDIT: Poor troubleshooting on my part. I missed the part in the dmesg about missing the firmware. I installed the firmware through AUR and everything works as it should. I need to be better than this .....

Okay, so I am ready to tear my hair out over this one. I've followed the Arch wiki to the letter and none of my devices are being discovered. The dmesg command shows my internal bluetooth adapter and blueberry recognizes the adapter. What gives? I don't know where to go to troubleshoot from here. Any ideas are welcome.

EDIT: With thanks to u/code@lemmy.mayes.io, I have a solution for cleaning up the one table that is growing ridiculously in size and that is the activity table. A TRUNCATE activity; command cleaned that right up. A word of caution is in order because the Lemmy instance must be shutdown completely and only the postgres container running if you're using docker.

As a new Lemmy admin, I think I really need to learn PostgreSQL administration because I need a way to keep my database from ballooning in size and there are no management tools built yet for it. Would someone be so kind as to recommend a good website for learning PostgreSQL? This would also help me maintain my mastodon instance.
