No matter what setup you use, if you want redundancy, it’ll cost space. In a perfect world, 30% waste would allow you to lose up to 30% of your disk space and still be OK.

…but that extra percentage of used space is the intrinsic cost.

This new distribution of Fedora is FAT!

What monstrosity are you running and calling Debian that there are package conflicts on regular updates?

…or, are you talking early-2000’s Linux, where SuSe was the only consistent distro and package management hadn’t really been fully sorted out?

Good bot. Here’s some electricity. ⚡

Well, vote with your choices, I suppose.

I’ve seen enough poor practices go unacknowledged and buried, or simply forgotten (lemmy user count +1 is kindof a minor but hilarious ‘fix’ for divide-by-zero), that I just like or when an organization acknowledges it and makes a change. I don’t need rustdesk, but I wouldn’t mind using them.

Sad days.

There are two types of computer memory that fundamentally matter on the consumer level:

• memory, as in RAM, which is like short-term memory in people, or how much you can think about at once. It is blanked when the computer restarts. It is very fast.
• drive storage, as in hdd or ssd space. This is like long-term memory or overall knowledge capacity, and persists across boots. It is comparatively slow.

Solid state disk storage, and in particular some SD cards, can be vulnerable to excessive writes.

Ram, however, is not impacted by the number of uses.

A swap file works like this: When memory gets full, you move the least-used parts onto the swap file.

A normal swapfile is on-disk. When memory gets close to full, the system moves some onto the (much much slower, like 10-1000x) on-disk swapfile.

Zram swap creates a compressed swapfile out of your free memory. A file in linux does not have to be on a hard disk/ssd, it just has to look and quack like a file. When memory gets close to full, the system copies some onto the in-memory compressed file. This is very fast, but uses some cpu. It doesn’t touch your drive storage.

Zram swap is basically this: Turn all of your free ram into a swapdisk. Compress all access to that swapdisk.

So, it’s not using you storage, buy your memory. Most stuff in memory is usually highly uncompressed - so it compresses really well.

Instead of getting the additional space from disk, it’s getting it from compression.

If you don’t already use it, zram swap is great for providing a little bit extra oomph. If your server doesn’t have a lot of compressed data in memory, it can literally more than double your effective ram.

“But I shouldn’t have to” is a trap, everywhere it occurs. It cripples one’s ability to act on an emotional level, and manifests as all kinds of resistances and avoidances that ultimately prevent you from seeing the problem clearly - and if you somehow do see the problem clearly, you still don’t want to do anything about it.

The world owes you nothing. You exist. If you want love and fairness and a reasonable world, love and be fair and be reasonable, and choose to work together with those who are. Where you work, what you spend your time on, where you spend your money, and who you spend your time with are your places of impact. Don’t let others steal that - particularly over ‘but I shouldn’t have to defend myself.’

I don’t think that’s a better question. I’d just say ‘not everyone understamds the things I do, and someone might find that useful. But it’s useless noise to me, so I’ll filter it out (in this case by blocking it).’ Conveniently there’s a tool for just that.

The point to consider addressing it differently is when the bot owners pull some shit like creating new accounts to circumvent blocks. that would be an issue. How to address that, if it occurs, is a better question.

Asking others to do the thing you can do.

I dunno if you’re into scripting, but what I do is check my IP, and then update it via the API that Dreamhost (who are the nameservers I use) provide. If your nameservers have a public-facing API, that might be an option.

This comes off as a sick burn.

A folder for backgrounds, shared between gf and i.

We can change each other’s currently active background.

Also, synchronization of game assets - i save a template, and it almost immediately becomes available in her game.

Well, it’s about as good as you’re going to get right now.

Wow.

Nice take.

I myself am fine with the ruling, but only if we get a full-ownership deal on the car, and can legally completely gut and replace parts that do that. Also, the car should be sold with a warning label regarding these issues.
