Great so what’s left at that point, the free value FOSS provides to corporations?
Criticizing people’s past and current actions relating to the subject and bringing up their direct history relavent to the subject is not a personal attack, nor is it out of line to point out he does his to advance his political agenda within the project, which is why he got banned in the first place. All of this directly relates to the subject at hand.
You know what doesn’t relate to the subject at hand? Your random little “sjw gender terrorists” comment. But it does make it rather clear why you want to obfuscate the facts about Srid’s history with the project, subsequent ban, and continued amplification of drama and general shit-stirring ever since.
You made one reply to me whining that I attacked the person by pointing out his beliefs, and then made another reply to me about “gender terrorist SJWs”. Do you just lack any form of self-awareness?
I attacked his beliefs which is perfectly valid. You should critically examine the motives and biases of people who feed you information.
You should know that the guy you cited in the second link, Srid, is a well-known right-wing shit-stirrer who is banned from basically all NixOS spaces because he cannot peacefully coexist. He literally gets up day after day with the seemingly sole purpose of fueling drama and causing problems. Don’t take his opinion at face value, he wants to see the project burn down and this colors his interpretation of events.
NixOS is going through a rocky moment for sure, but there’s no indication it will implode currently.
Whatever you get for your NAS, make sure it’s CMR and not SMR. SMR drives do not perform well in NAS arrays.
I just want to follow this up and stress how important it is. This isn’t “oh, it kinda sucks but you can tolerate it” territory. It’s actually unusable after a certain point. I inherited a Synology NAS at my current job which is used for backup storage, and my job was to figure out why it wasn’t working anymore. After investigation, I found out the guy before me populated it with cheapo SMR drives, and after a certain point they just become literally unusable due to the ripple effect of rewrites inherent to shingled drives. I tried to format the array of five 6TB drives and start fresh, and it told me it would take 30 days to run whatever “optimization” process it performs after a format. After leaving it running for several days, I realized it wasn’t joking. During this period, I was getting around 1MB/s throughput to the system.
Do not buy SMR drives for any parity RAID usage, ever. It is fundamentally incompatible with how parity RAID (RAID5/6, ZFS RAID-Z, etc) writes across multiple disks. SMR should only be used for write-once situations, and ideally only for cold storage.
Refurbished drives get their SMART data reset during the process, they absolutely had more than that originally.
Motorola has always had some custom additions, it’s not running raw AOSP. Unless it’s changed in the last year, not even the Pixel can do it. Good to know Moto has apparently had this feature for a while though, wish Google would get it into Android itself so everyone can benefit.
This feature unironically turned me from a decade long Samsung hater into a Samsung shill. The fact that it’s still not in base Android is just embarrassing.
If you’re waiting for Jellyfin to run some kind of relay like Plex, you’ll be waiting a long time. That takes a lot of money to upkeep, and the demand for people who self-host FOSS and then want to depend on an external service is very minimal, certainly not enough to sustain such a service. I’d recommend just spending a weekend afternoon learning how to set up Nginx Proxy Manager and being done with it, the GUI makes it very easy.
I chose Bookstack for the same situation. It’s dead simple in usage and maintenance. No issues yet!
I will have an OG Xiaomi Mi Box and it’s absurd how over the years it went from a purely functional media device to a complete shit show covered ads. Genuinely disgusted me every time I turned the TV on. I couldn’t stand it anymore, I had to tear out the launcher with ADB and replace it with FLauncher.
I wish Kodi wasn’t such a pain in the ass to deal with, especially for YouTube. We really need a new FOSS media center application. Until then, at least FLauncher works for now as a simple app switcher for a handful of Android apps.
Recently started using Tempo with Navidrome. Haven’t had more than a few days of use yet, but everything has worked exactly as expected! Can’t ask for much more than that.
I very recently started using borgbackup. I’m extremely impressed with how much it compressed the data before sending, and how well it detects changes and only sends the difference. I have not yet attempted a proper restore from backup, though.
I have much less data I’m currently securing (~50gb) and much more uplink bandwidth (~115mbps) so my situation isn’t nearly as dire. But it was able to compress that down to less than 25gb before sending, and after the initial upload, the next week’s backup only required about 100mb of data transfer.
If you can find a way to seed your data from a faster location, reduce the amount you need to back up, and/or break it up into multiple smaller transfers, this might be an effective solution for you.
Borgbase’s highest plan has an upper limit of 8TB, which you would be brushing right up against, but Hetzner storage boxes go up to 20TB and officially support Borg.
Outside of that, if you don’t expect the data to change often, you might be looking for some sort of cheap S3 storage from AWS or other similar large datacenter company. But you’ll still need to find a way to actually get them the data safely, and I’m not sure if they support differential uploads like Borg does.
The goal here is to make it difficult to link to things uploaded to discord from outside of discord. The malware reason is BS. If they wanted to curb malware it would be as easy as making it a nitro feature. What that doesn’t fix is all the people piggybacking on discord as a free CDN.
Discord isn’t even wrong for doing this. I just resent their dishonesty.
Why doesn’t Israel stop doing things that require other countries to intervene
Convincing argument, but unfortunately a cursory Google search will reveal he was right. There is very little CPU overhead. The only real consideration is a bite extra storage and RAM to store and load the redundant dependencies of the container.
While that isn’t false, defaults carry immense weight. Also, very few have the means to host at scale like Docker Hub; if the goal is to not just repeat the same mistake later, each project would have to host their own, or perhaps band together into smaller groups. And unfortunately, being a good programmer does not make you good at devops or sysadmin work, so now we need to involve more people with those skillsets.
To be clear, I’m totally in favor of this kind of fragmentation. I’m just also realistic about what it means.
I always come back to Smart Launcher. I grew up with category-based application menus on on PC, I can’t stand having a giant unorganized app drawer. It’s so cluttered and messy. I’m always surprised at how little mention it gets and instead everybody talks about these “minimalist” launchers that are literally just unorganized app drawers.
