I’ve abused syncthing in some many ways migrating servers and giant data sets. It’s freaking amazing. Though it’s been a few years since I’ve used it. Can only guess how much better it’s gotten.

IBM/Red Hat maybe since it’s a US company. HOWEVER we went through this with PGP already and the infamous RSA Dolphin.

So could they try? Yeah. Would it work? I don’t know.

L2ARC only does metadata out of the box. You have to tell it to do data & metadata. Plus for everything in L2ARC there has to be a memory page for it. So for that reason it’s better to max out your system memory before doing L2ARC.

It’s also not a cache in the way that LVMCACHE and BCACHE are.

At least that’s my understanding from having used it on storage servers and reading the documentation.

I used to do this all the time! So in terms of speed bcache is the fastest, but it’s not as well supported as lvm cache. IMHO lvm cache is plenty fast enough for most uses.

Is it going to be as fast as a NVME ssd? Nope. But it should be about as fast as a SATA ssd if not a little slower depending on how it’s getting the data. If you’re willing to take that trade off it’s worth it. Though anything already cached is going to be accessed at NVME speeds.

So it’s totally worth it if you need bigger storage but can’t afford the SSD. I would go bigger in your HDD though, if you can. Because unless you’re accessing more than the capacity of your SSD frequently; the caching will work extremely well for both reads and writes. So your steam games will feel like they’re on a SSD, most of the time, and everything else you do will “feel” snappy too.

OP said they don’t want/can’t use the built in paid sync service and wants to self host it

I’ve been putting everything behind Tailscale. I don’t see any reason to make it public unless you’re planning on sharing it with the public.

I hope it’s either written so broadly that it covers everyone in the US on that day or it’s so narrow that it only applies to like 6 people. Because that would really fit the theme of the shit show that is combining

I’ve never in my entire life wanted something more than to see copycats going after the C-Suite of places that put profits over people, especially when they’re running a company that should not exist. Because then maybe… politicians will finally get some meaningful reforms. Because they sure as hell don’t care about dead kids. Thoughts and prayers!!!

I think that’s the party that is paid to loose…

It’s a libertarian wet dream…. That will fuck over regular people for decades…

Especially when I hear things like “They/she didn’t ‘earn’ my vote” … like stop lying to yourself and others. You’re a racist piece of shit who couldn’t stomach having a black woman as president. So you’re trying to hide it. We all can see it, just put on your red cap or white hood and go join the others…

Why? And what would be a replacement for it?

Yeap! About 15 million of them voted by not voting 😤

They were also too scared to vote too. About 15 million of them decided not to vote this time around. 😩

Restic, it has native S3 compatibility and when you combine with something like B2 it makes amazing offsite storage so you can enjoy the tried and true 3-2-1 backup strategy.

Also fedora magazine did a few posts on setting it up with systemd that makes it SUPER EASY to get going if you need a guide.

I have an ansible role that configures it on everyone’s laptops so that they have local, NAS, and remote, B2, backup locations.

Works like a charm for the past 8+ years.

MacOS, nearly everyone who does anything with development or ops is using a MacBook. Though lately more “normal” employees have been getting MacBooks too.

It’s kind of surprising he’s not…

Depends on the state. Most states from my understanding work like this:

Threatening to throw a rock and/or actually throwing it is assault. When / If the rock hits them then that’s battery.

So in this case the threat of violence is the assault. Had he actually made contact then it would have been battery too.

Because it’s good for society as a whole? We already do similar things like mandate contraceptives converged under insurance. Plus we also fund things via taxes eg schools, Medicare, etc.
