I actually don’t know whether timeshift can just run easily from a live USB, but I don’t see why not.
But of course that also requires you to have installed and set up timeshift before (which is obviously a good idea)
It’s quite a different deal when the whole operating system it built around a timeshift-like concept.
Depends what you break. Sure kernels are easy to fix like you mention, but what if you bork your display manager?
ZFS doesn’t really support mismatched disks. In OP’s case it would behave as if it was 4x 2TB disks, making 4 TB of raw storage unusable, with 1 disk of parity that would yield 6TB of usable storage. In the future the 2x 2TB disks could be swapped with 4 TB disks, and then ZFS would make use of all the storage, yielding 12 TB of usable storage.
BTRFS handles mismatched disks just fine, however it’s RAID5 and RAID6 modes are still partially broken. RAID1 works fine, but results in half the storage being used for parity, so this would again yield a total of 6TB usable with the current disks.
SSD longevity seems to be better than HDDs overall. The limiting factor is how many write cycles the SSD can handle, but in most cases the write endurance is so high that it’s unreachable by most home/NAS systems.
SSDs are however really bad for cold storage, as they will lose the charge stored in their cells if left unpowered too long. When the SSD is powered it will automatically refresh the cells in the background to ensure they don’t lose their charge.
When my dog was only about 1 year old, she stepped on a glass shard and cut up her paw. She needed stitches, so we went to the vet, and brought her favorite stuffed toy, which was a dog too.
The vet sewed her paw up, and bandaged the whole lower leg. And then proceeded to bandage up the stuffed dog too, so our dog would feel included.
Nope, those steps are the steps needed to legally watch Netflix on Asahi Linux on an Apple Silicon device, because Google has not officially released the widevine library for that platform
But the author is actually using less data than expected, because he’s paying for 4K, but only able to watch up to 1080p
My personal opinion is that soy milk tastes like grass… I’ve tried it in coffee, alone, on cereal, but I just can’t avoid feeling like someone dumped a handful of freshly cut grass in…
Almond is pretty good on it’s own, but in coffee it tastes like marzipan… It’s not bad, but not the taste I want in my coffee.
Oat is what tastes most like cow’s milk to me.
My home-assistant installation alone is too much for my Raspberry Pi 3. It depends entirely on how much data it’s processing and needing to keep in memory.
Octoprint needs to respond in a timely manner, so you will want to have the system mostly idle (at least below 60 percent CPU at all times), preferably octoprint should be the only thing running on the system unless it’s rather powerful.
If I were you, I would install octoprint exclusively on your Raspberry Pi 3, and then buy a Raspberry Pi 4 for the other services.
I’m running Pi-hole and a wireguard VPN on an old Raspberry Pi 2, which is perfectly fine if you are not expecting gigabit speeds on the VPN.
Yeah agreed… Now the cable takes up space in all three directions, where as if you just use a good old cable tie, it will mostly take up space in one direction…
I could see some point in using it to bundle up a bunch of cables under a table, so they are in one nice bundle and you can’t easily open the clip and take out one of the cables, but not for storage.
Oh, I misremembered… It’s only 7 disks in BTRFS RAID1.
I have:
For a combined total of 40 TB raw storage, which in RAID1 turns into 20 TB usable.
I never said anything about RAID5. I’m running RAID1.
BTRFS is running just fine for my 8 disk home server.
According to Karl, Billy must pay all the legal fees if he withdraws from the lawsuit. He must also pay the legal fees if he loses. Billy’s only way out of paying would be to win the lawsuit.
So the longer Karl strings him along, the more the fees will mount.
And since Billy doesn’t have a leg to stand on he can either withdraw now, pay a lot of money, and admit he lied. Or he can keep fighting mounting more fees in the slim nope of winning.
Uh… Please enlighten me on what DBUS has to do with DNS…
It’s rather important to understand the performance characteristics for people to know what to expect if they want to switch to Linux.
If games ran at half the FPS on Linux as they would have on Windows, then pretty much no one would be gaming on linux.
If you got 90% performance on Linux, only Linux enthusiasts would take the performance hit.
At 100% performance the choice is completely free, people that got fed up with windows could just switch.
When Linux outperforms Windows, this puts us in very interesting territory, as this might even entice a bunch of people to give Linux a try to see whether the switch is worth the performance. I’m personally quite interested in seeing whether this could be the tipping point for Linux on desktop and laptop to really start taking off.
I personally trust Asus, EVGA (Rip), Gigabyte, Palit, PNY, Sapphire and XFX when buying graphics cards.
My current card is a Geforce GTX 1060 6GB from Asus that I bought in 2017, and it hasn’t skipped a beat.3A
Honestly everyone should just stop offering 2FA over SMS
Interestingly the watermelon (and other plants) don’t quite eat the sunlight, but the chlorophyll in the plant uses the sunlight to get enough energy to steal the carbon atoms from the CO2 in the air. So your water melon is literally made out of thin air!
