Well, that says more about you, who broke your btrfs?

Seriously tho, it’s fine, why would you even tell me ?

Thanks, got a new term today.

Someone just removed many lifetimes of CO2 emissions with a couple of lines of code.

Shame that usage will just expand to fill the gap. Thanks late stage capitalism. Degrowth.

Yeah, I was younger then, perhaps less disciplined, and as always, given enough work you can decompile or regenerate anything. Still, I contend, the nature of Perl, powerful as it was, lent itself to unmaintainable messes, and I’m not talking regex’s, which is why it has faded, no amount of get gud withstanding.

I upvoted you because I consider Perl write only (used to know it, now it inspires readable code as a high priority)

Eh, that moment when you get a different error message tho ;)

woof

Doo Eeeet, Doo EEeet Now!!!

Seriously though, I vote VM under linux. Spin it up for whatever you need, use it less and less, no regrets…

Great to hear!

Not sure, but it is still active with like 80 contributors. It’s much the same as the original with a couple of extra features and more languages, so transition should be minimally painful, maybe even export - import level. I’ve been using it for years as I saw the original wasn’t very active, but they’re pretty much (essential) feature complete and stable, which is good. Apparently, google thinks that’s bad.

Syncthing-Fork (F-Droid)

As noted elsewhere Syncthing-Fork is still going strong, and a drop-in replacement, it’s on F-Droid.

It also exposes a proxy (and a tun), most things you want behind a vpn can use a proxy.

Nice to see tech jesus here (getting this right?), normally in my rss feed…

Keen.

And a few people will get extremely rich by siphoning off a percent or two, circle of life baby /s

rclone supports lots of services

including Proton Drive …

Absitively, use case here IMO is set and forget autoupdate to stay current and SELinux (which actually reduces surface)

For a media server speed matters little (5400rpm is plenty), if you’ve only got one drive, warranty is king. Thing is you shouldn’t only have one drive, drives will fail, and warranty doesn’t get your data back, so you plan for it. At the very least, you should look at getting an offline backup as soon as possible, now you don’t care if your drive fails and can get the cheapest ones. Ideally, you also set up a RAID5 (or Unraid, or mergerfs+SnapRAID) on your server, now you just get a replacement drive and rebuild. Remember RAID is not a backup, it doesn’t protect against accidental deletions for example, so you still want the offline backup.

Also, don’t sleep on manufacturer recertified drives, as long as you have a backup they’re significantly more cost-effective.

TLDR: set yourself up so that a drive failing is not a problem.
