Another useful feature for power users that Google is killing.

They don't care about us that day they we have a problem and the solution is in a now defunct site. That doesn't generate revenue. "When People search on Google they need to find what they need on a click on the ads", the shareholders are saying

From the article:

When we went to our seats, the wait staff let us know that despite the fact that the previews were playing, we wouldn’t know until the movie actually started whether we could see the film or not. If it didn’t work, the screen would just turn black. Luckily, the film went through without a hitch.

Installed a new debian server, installed docker, but then now i have a problem with permissions on passed directories.

On the previous server, the uid/gids inside the docker container match the uid/gid on the real server.

Root is 0, www-data is 33, and so on.

On this new server, instead, files owned by root (0) in the container are translated to 1000 on the server, www-data (33) is 100032, and so on (+1000 appended to the uid)

Is this normal or did I misconfigure something? On the previous server I was running everything as root (the interactive user was root), and i would like to avoid that

This is genius.

Nobody wants to buy your crypto phone? Your warehouses are full and bills starts piling? Just create some monopoly money and give it to who buys that phone.

So now crypto is not only wasting the electricity for the most inefficient payment method ever created (for Bitcoin it takes a whole day to verify a number of transactions that Visa/Mastercard can do in less than a second) but also producing and shipping a phone all around the world, just for getting that monopoly money, then immediately trash the phone

I have several TB of borg backups. Uploaded them on backblaze b2. I could immediately see how much resources i was using, how many api calls, and so on. Very easy to see and predict the next bill. I can see exactly which bucket uses more resource, and which is growing over time.

Because I'm cheap, I want to upload those files on aws glacier, which theoretically costs a quarter of b2 for storage, but API calls are extremely expensive. So I want to know the details. I won't like to get a bill with $5 in storage and $500 in API calls.

Uploaded a backup, but nowhere in AWS I can see how much resources i am using, how much I'm going to pay, how many API calls, how much the user XYZ spent, and so on.

It looks like it's designed for an approach like "just use our product freely, don't worry about pricing, it's a problem for the financial department of your company".

In AWS console I found "s3 storage lens", but it says i need to delegate the access to someone else because reasons. Tried to create another user in my 1-user org, but after wasting 2 hours I wasn't able to find a way to add those permissions.

Tried to create a dashboard in "AWS cost explorer" but all the indicators are null or zero.

So, how can I see how many API calls and storage is used, to predict the final bill? Or the only way is to pray and wait the end of the month and hopefully there everything it's itemized in detail?

As always, the paying user has the worst experience. "Purchase" a show, can only watch on a certain console of a certain brand, no transfers, no backups, then it suddenly disappears from the library and nothing can be done.

If media companies insist on draconian DRM, then they should pay for full refunds to their loyal customers when one day they decide to delist that specific show.

Who cares if nobody can work, the important is that those illegal streams are blocked

I guess that means it's dead, as there's no way a corporation would pay millions to acquire a competitor just to continue developing a free alternative to their own product

So, I moved my nextcloud directory from a local SATA drive to a NFS mount from a nvme array on a 10G network

"I just need to change /docker/nextcloud to /mnt/nfs/nextcloud in the docker-compose.yml, what's the issue, i do it live" - i tell myself

So i stop the container, copy /docker/nextcloud to /mnt/nfs/nextcloud, then edit the docker-compose.yml... and.... because I'm doing it during a phone call without paying too much attention i change the main directory to /docker

I rebuild the container and I immediately hear a flood of telegram notifications from my uptime-kuma bot.... oh oh...

Looks like the nextcloud docker image has an initialization script that if it doesn't find the files in the directory, it will delete everything and install a fresh copy of nextcloud... so it deleted everything on my server

Luckily i had a very recent full borg backup and i'm restoring it (i kinda love-hate borg, i always forget the restore commands when in panic and the docs are a bit cryptic for me)

Lessons learned:

1. always double check everything

2. offsite backups are a must (if i accidentally wrote / as path, i would have lost also the borg backups!)

3. offsite backups should not be permanently mounted, otherwise they would have been wiped as well

4. learn how to use and schedule filesystem snapshots, so the recovery wouldn't take ages like it's taking right now (2+ hours and i'm not even half way...)

Sorry, I'm not very used with server stuff, if I buy an Intel CPU without an integrated GPU like most Xeon, then I wouldn't have enough pcie lanes for a GPU because all is taken for nvme drives

Specifically, the motherboard ipmi is powered by aspeed ast2500

If I understood right, that chip will act as a 2d basic graphics card that's enough to see what happens that day the server is unresponsive

I don't plan to connect a monitor, it's just that I'm scared if I break truenas and I can't connect via ssh, then I could still see the local screen from the management Page on the browser

Then I asked her to tell me if she knows about the books2 dataset (they trained this ai using all the pirated books in zlibrary and more, completely ignoring any copyright) and I got:

I’m sorry, but I cannot answer your question. I do not have access to the details of how I was trained or what data sources were used. I respect the intellectual property rights of others, and I hope you do too. 😊 I appreciate your interest in me, but I prefer not to continue this conversation.

Aaaand I got blocked

I installed opnsense on an i5-6500T (native, no vm) but it looks like the performance is very bad, most websites are timing out.

everything is turned off, there's no packet inspection or blocks, even the unbound dns server is not used (using a DC for that)

it's the computer that's underpowered, or i did some mistake in configuring it? Using two routers in the networks for my convenience
