I love zfs. Started using it for my data storage pool and now I have it on root as well. It has some rough edges but overall it is very stable and has amazing features.

This is an oversimplification of the problem. Many times a search engine returns useful results inside reddit. You’re not going there because you love reddit as a platform, but because you need something that someone posted in there.

I’ve worked extensively with both virtualbox and kvm/qemu. While I prefer kvm since it’s open source, I could never reproduce the video performance of virtualbox. I’m not even trying to game, just use regular applications that I cannot run under Linux.

I wonder if I’m missing something.

https://github.com/marcopaganini/termotp is a CLI authenticator program with fuzzy find capabilities explicitly designed to work with Aegis export files.

When things lock up, will a kill -9 kill rsync or not? If it doesn’t, and the zpool status lockup is suspicious, it means things are stuck inside a system call. I’ve seen all sorts of horrible things with usb timeouts. Check your syslog.

I would really really love to turn off the quick share options in the system share menu. Unfortunately, this is not an option.

No love for xroach? Man, I’m old. Is it still around?

Twitter is a mess that we can see. Imagine all the shit hidden on Tesla software that we can’t.

Cat. Pupils are slitted.

You can still read the contents of the directory because you have -r on it. If you just run ls foo you’ll see your file on there, no problem.

However, without -x you cannot read metadata in that directory. That’s why all information about the file shows as question marks.

How did you manage with video performance? I don’t game and have had a lot of experience with both vbox and kvm. Kvm performance for video is excruciatingly slow. It got to a point I said “that does it” and went back to vbox.

I like tailscale and have been testing it for a few months. I’m also using headscale as the control plane.

Unfortunately the android client is somewhat unreliable. It works most of the time but once in a while, connections to your tailnet will fail for a bit and require retries. If you ping a machine in your tailnet during this problem, it will show packet loss and then start working after a few pings. This unfortunately makes it difficult to have a reliable split DNS setup.

I’ve done everything to try and understand what happens without success. It seems like state is lost somewhere and a few packets flowing will fix it. Running a constant ping from Android to my tailnet “fixes” the problem, but is not a great workaround.

Just something to keep in mind before you jump headfirst.

I have to say my faith in signal has been shattered since I got crosstalk on a signal conversation. I still can’t imagine how that’s possible but it was there, clear as day.

Odd consideration, but… I use 16Gb of ram and I have zero swap space and I’ve never seen a freeze in the three years this system has been assembled.

You won’t see big problems until you use most of the ram, then you’re toast. Also Linux (if that’s what you’re using) prefers to have more cache at the expense of swapping out pages. There’s a lot of rarely used code on many apps that can be safely swapped out to get you more cache.
