How does mergefs compare to btrfs and bcachefs in using multiple partitions?
How does mergefs compare to btrfs and bcachefs in using multiple partitions?
Drives connected to usb have an unstable connection in my experience, this is very annoying and gets worse with hubs.
RAIDs reduce the time a system is offline and reduce data loss, if a drive fails and you can afford to wait for the new disk and the backup to restore, and have regular backups that ensure no important data gets lost (though remember the data added between backups may be lost) then you don’t need a RAID.
I don’t use RAIDs cause if my disk fails then I can stomach the 2-4 days it takes to buy a new one and restore the backup
Very important: use S.M.A.R.T and a filesystem with checksums to make sure you’re not backing up corrupted data and know to get a new one
For encryption at rest you may want to look at clevis and tang, though you need a server in your home network for this to work. The client (with clevis) then decrypts the disk at boot if it can reach the server (tang). The server can’t decrypt the data without the client secret and the client can’t decrypt it without the server public key.
Don’t know what your server could be though, maybe a router with custom firmware?
You should also look into cloud storage/rclone, that way you can automate your backups more and reduce the need for manual intervention.
I use rclone and restic to automatically backup my servers daily which takes a few seconds most of the time due to them being incremental backups.
Something I don’t get is, why try to make all browser look the same when you can do the easier thing and just make each browser session have a new fingerprint?
A unique fingerprint doesn’t matter much if it’s only valid till I close that website, right? So why not change a lot of variables by some small amount to make the data useless?
As long as you only copy off the disk, you can just reboot and the whole system in RAM vanishes and the normal system boots again for the second try.
FYI you can use kexec and a prepared initrd to do something similar with only one command.
Or encrypt it before uploading
That’s fine as long as it can self reference.
And to calculate the offset needed to get them all synced up involves calculating time dilation, which involves knowing/assuming the speed of light. These synchronizations work just as well if the two way speed of light is different than the one way speed of light.
To know the speed of light you assume the speed of light is c, but you’re trying to calculate c so all those clocks aren’t verified synced.
Just read through the wiki or Harvard’s books if you’d like, this is an unsolved “problem” in physics for a reason or do you think no one cares about how fast c is?
See also This or, more accessibly “Synchronization conventions”
It is impossible to synchronize the clocks in such a way that you can actually measure the speed of light with it due to time dilation unless you define beforehand how fast the speed of light is to calculate that time dilation.
See also This or, more accessibly “Synchronization conventions”
The very accurate clock needed in this case is physically impossible as far as we know, there’s no way to measure it as far as our current understanding of physics goes.
Though if you can figure out a way you should publish a paper about it.
And further down:
Unfortunately, if the one-way speed of light is anisotropic, the correct time dilation factor becomes
, with the anisotropy parameter κ between -1 and +1.[17] This introduces a new linear term,
(here
), meaning time dilation can no longer be ignored at small velocities, and slow clock-transport will fail to detect this anisotropy. Thus it is equivalent to Einstein synchronization.
This is slighlty different though, we only know the two-way speed of light, not the one way speed of light.
We only know that this trip, to and back, takes x seconds. We cannot prove that the trip to the mirror takes the same length of time as the way back.
The special theory of relativity for example does not depend on the one way speed of light to be the same as the two way speed of light.
They do have a tab bar now, though it’s recent.
doesn’t support multi tab browsing
What do you mean? Having multiple tabs open at once?
IANAL: The short of it is that unless Samsung can prove that it’s the software’s fault that the malfunction is there, they have to repair it. A blown efuse is just as much proof as the ‘warranty broken if removed’ stickers, which is none.
There’s lot’s of cases online where Samsung/resellers try to stop people but as long as you are persistent and don’t just accept them not wanting to fix it they will repair it.
There’s also some cases of going through the small claims court to handle this (which doesn’t cost anything if you win) Small claims court
Also: This ONLY applies to the normal EU warranty which you always have, any extended warranty does not need to repair your device if you’ve rooted it.
In the EU at least Samsung can’t make a fuss either.
How does a search engine being offline interrupt a device flashing?
It doesn’t though? IANAL but as far as I can tell you can fork, modify and redistribute it as long as you provide the source code to your users.
It’s AGPL-3.0 so… https://www.tldrlegal.com/license/gnu-affero-general-public-license-v3-agpl-3-0

We were on the verge of greatness, we were this close.
They don’t because they don’t
Probably because this is still in early alpha and “the schema is still changing”.
