How to setup an LXC container with AMD iGPU (Ryzen 7 5800H) passthrougth for Ollama in Proxmox

Proxmox

First we need to install the Alpine LXC, the easiest way is to use Proxmox Helper scripts: https://tteck.github.io/Proxmox/

bash -c "$(wget -qLO - https://github.com/tteck/Proxmox/raw/main/ct/alpine.sh)"

I would install in "advance" mode and be generous with the resources (8-16 cores, 16G ram, 128GB disk)

Proxmox - SPICE client setup for MacOS

Install a working (and compiled) version of virt-viewer. You may view the homebrew package's upstream source on GitHub.
```
brew tap jeffreywildman/homebrew-virt-manager
brew install virt-viewer
```
Once that's installed should be able make a call remote-viewer with a pve-spice.vv file downloaded from proxmox web interface

Better PowerShell

Theme | History | KeyBinding

in order to make windows powershell more comfortable and add a some theme and features like history binding, auto complete on keypress and so on, if you have used linux teminl wiht zsh for example, we are going to make powershell like that as much as we can.

What we will achieve

Running Plex in an Unprivileged LXC with Intel QuickSync Passthrough

First setup an unprivileged Ubuntu container with Plex Media Server installed. Inside the container take note of the id of the plex group.

# Your Plex group's ID may be different
$ getent group plex | cut -d : -f3

Exporting your 2FA tokens from Authy to transfer them into another 2FA application

IMPORTANT - Update regarding deprecation of Authy desktop apps

Past August 2024, Authy stopped supported the desktop version of their apps:
See Authy is shutting down its desktop app | The 2FA app Authy will only be available on Android and iOS starting in August for details.

And indeed, after a while, Authy changed something in their backend which now prevents the old desktop app from logging in. If you are already logged in, then you are in luck, and you can follow the instructions below to export your tokens.

If you are not logged in anymore, but can find a backup of the necessary files, then restore those files, and re-install Authy 2.2.3 following the instructions below, and it should work as expected.
