  • Why?

    跳过
  • Purely to record / watch TV, films, etc.

    I tried Windows Media Center (XP with some tweaks) and it was dire...

    Found MythTV and decided I needed to "learn Linux" to get it done.

    Now everything (except my work's laptop) is Linux (Arch btw)

  • Why?

  • Ah, but maybe they were never using anything else...

  • INHO never auto-upgrade anything.

    Leave it a day / week or so, and then manually upgrade.

    (And do a backup of application database(s) first.)

  • Ahh, ok. Thanks for clarifying.

  • Depends on which functions of NC you're using.

    Personally, I found thst no-one used the gallery, calendar or contacts apps in NC, so I replaced it all with radicale and syncthing.

    But if you're using all the collaboration stuff, then you'll need to look into it a bit more.

    For me, NC was way overkill, nightmare to maintain and an extra layer of software (ie vulnerabilities) exposed to the interwebs thst I didn't need

  • I use Vivaldi's built in calendar as the UI to Radicale.

    Just a suggestion

  • One thing I forgot to mention: rsync has an option to preserve file timestamps, so if that's important for your files, then thst might also be useful... without checking, the other commands probably have that feature, but I don't recall at the moment.

    rsync -Prvt <source> <destination> might be something to try, leave for a minute, stop and retry ... that'll prove it's all working.

    Oh... and make sure you get the source and destination paths correct with a trailing / (or not), otherwise you'll get all your files copied to an extra subfolder (or not)

  • Ah.. robocopy... that's a great tool

  • Hardlinks need to be on the same filesystem, don't they? I don't see how that would work with a remote backup...?

  • It depends

    rsync is fine, but to clarify a little further...

    If you think you'll stop the transfer and want it to resume (and some data might have changed), then yep, rsync is best.

    But, if you're just doing a 1-off bulk transfer in a single run, then you could use other tools like xcopy / scp or - if you've mounted the remote NAS at a local mount point - just plain old cp

    The reason for that is that rsync has to work out what's at the other end for each file, so it's doing some back & forwards communications each time which as someone else pointed out can load the CPU and reduce throughput.

    (From memory, I think Raspberry Pi don't handle large transfers over scp well... I seem to recall a buffer gets saturated and the throughput drops off after a minute or so)

    Also, on a local network, there's probably no point in using encryption or compression options - esp. for photos / videos / music... you're just loading the CPU again to work out that it can't compress any further.

  • Yep.

    I just read another post about EU politicians wanting to bypass encrypted chat - which would be spyware - and now I read this.

    Surely, surely, they understand these are the same things

  • Ah, but it's how old you feel which is more important 😉

    Maybe those statistics could be really interesting:

    • How old do you feel when using proprietary software?
    • How old do you feel when using FOSS?
  • Thanks for posting the version.

    Looks like Arch updated to this version on 1st July.

    My DMZ node had it installed a week later, so I'm all smug today

  • Nice. Glad you're on to something.

    I can't help you with docker files as I don't use it, but, there's usually a way to find out who / what owns a file, so I hope docker utils can tell you if it's safe to delete

  • No, even lighterweight - no containers.

    My NAS is mostly plain Arch packages, so just upgrade and all is well. No additional container software layer to maintain either.

    Btrfs management tools update with the OS, all is good.

  • +1 on all of this.

    Logseq basically saved my mind when I took on a new job where I needed to take a lot of notes quickly, easily and keep track of all the ToDos.

    Syncthing keeps my laptop and phone in sync (with my NAS) so I can start notes on my laptop and then finish on my phone.

    You can definitely reorder checkboxes, but on Android it's still not quite a smooth experience, but it's ok.

  • du -hs * won't find "hidden" (.) files and folders, you'll need a slightly sifferent regx (which I will leave as an exercise for you / I don't have that info here)

    And also both du and df show different results depending on the underlying filesystem, ie btrfs (and maybe ZFS?) won't show how much deduplication is happening.

    Also, you might be looking at sparse files too, and from memory, you'll need another option for du or df to report those correctly.

  • A confession in here is worth total forgiveness.

    I'll phone your boss and clear it for you...

    (Most of mine then eventually ended up on ebay)
