Heck yea! Getting closer! Keep up telling everyone

And all of her simps will fall over eachother at her feet over this.

Why hasn't anyone yet done the ballsy move by just learning her tricks and distributing that to everyone to learn? Why does it have to be this unhinged bitch?

It is pretty entertaining though, isn’t it? Like, this is the closest we will ever get to the movie Hackers, but in real life.

I think you may need to add some more slur placeholders in there, but yes.

siv9939 , (edited ) to gaming in Guitar Hero clone...with characters/venues?

As far as I know Clone Hero and YARG are the best options going now. They both support guitar/ bass, drums, and keyboard, although only YARG has vocals.

YARG is still in development but I haven’t had any problems with it. There’s also support to download venues, though I haven’t messed with it so I don’t know how well they work yet. I’m also guessing there will eventually be support for characters at some point, but I haven’t hear anything officially. They also release on Linux.

Clone Hero has a full release and the developers are still active. As far as I know there’s no venue support, although some people set the songs’ music videos to play in the background. It also looks like they only release on Windows.

Both of them come with a handful of songs, though you can download a ton more. They use the same files so you can have both pull from the same library if you want. I can’t remember where I found the links anymore, but I have the tracks for all of the Rock Band and Guitar Hero games that had a full band, plus other random songs I got from <a href="" rel="nofollow">https://rhythmverse.co/</a> and www.enchor.us The songs for the Guitar Hero games that were just guitar and bass are out there too if you don’t care about drums, keyboards, or vocals.

timestatic , to memes in HuMaN NatUrE!

Don’t you see the contradiction in your own meme? The clown says “we are born selfish” and then goes on to say “people are generous”. This in itself is a massive contradiction.

Dear diary,

Today I ate a burger. For real this time.

avidamoeba , to selfhosted in Best way to keep a hot spare SD card for a raspberry pi?
@avidamoeba@lemmy.ca avatar

Perhaps the best answer by far is ZFS but I don’t know how much pain it is to set it up to boot from on a Pi. The easiest to setup is probably LVM.

With ZFS you can trivially keep a hot spare even over the network. Just tell syncoid where to replicate.

ZFS isn’t going to perform well on a Raspberry Pi

avidamoeba ,
@avidamoeba@lemmy.ca avatar

I used it on a Pi 4 in 2019 for an USB-connected mirror and it worked well. Unencrypted throughput was upwards from 200MB/s. Encrypted throughput dropped down to under 100MB/s due to insufficient compute. The Pi 4 is a powerful computer and the Pi 5 even more so. Pi 3 and older, not so much.

traches OP ,

It’s a 4gb pi4, think it could boot from ZFS?

possiblylinux127 ,

You could boot from from an SD and then store data on a external drive. I would go Btrfs over ZFS unless you have at least 3 or more disks

avidamoeba ,
@avidamoeba@lemmy.ca avatar

I would try it. My only issue is I have no idea how to set it up on root on a Pi. Perhaps there’s docs somewhere. If had to setup a new Pi with Pi OS/Debian/Ubuntu today I’d definitely try it. Most of my Pis are running OpenWrt though.

traches OP ,

Performance is all but irrelevant in this case

possiblylinux127 ,

You say that but when the system starts to lock up you might change your tune

avidamoeba ,
@avidamoeba@lemmy.ca avatar

Why would it lock up? ZFS will use as much RAM as you give it and it doesn’t seem CPU-bound unless you turn on encryption. It’s not Ceph. Why do you expect ZFS to lock up and Btrfs not to?

sugar_in_your_tea , to selfhosted in Best way to keep a hot spare SD card for a raspberry pi?

Do you need a backup image?

For my NAS, all I do is:

  • keep notes of what’s installed and how to configure OS things
  • automatic, offsite backups of important configs and data

Any full-disk backups just make the restore process easier, they’re hardly the primary plan. If you want that, just take a manual backup like once a year, and maybe swap them out every 2-3 years (or however long you think the SD card should last). If you keep writes down, it should last quite a while (and nothing in your use-case seems write-heavy).

But honestly, you should always have a manual backup strategy in case something terrible happens (e.g. your house burns down). Make that your primary strategy, and hot spares would just be a time-saver for the more common case where HW fails.

traches OP ,

Well, this is my DNS server which means if it’s down the internet is down and I can’t resolve hostnames to ssh into. I know that can be worked around, but I’d really like a quick and easy fix that I could even talk someone through over the phone if I had to.

My real backups are squared away, no worries. Nightly automatic restic snapshots, one to an external drive on this very pi and another to a NAS at my parents’ house.

sugar_in_your_tea ,

I ended up making my router my DNS server, so if my router goes down, the internet is down anyway. I have static routes for things on my LAN, so if I hit mydomain.com, I can route it to an internal address instead of going over the internet. So far it works pretty well.

That said, I don’t have a PiHole setup, so I don’t know if that complicates things (I’m guessing pointing the router at the PiHole with a fallback to external DNS would just show ads or whatever if the PiHole is down).

But yeah, having a quick fallback is important. I think that should be as automatic as possible.

traches OP ,

I like the DNS on the router idea, I’ll look into it. I do have some split DNS set up as well as adblocking lists (technician). Not sure what my router can do.

sugar_in_your_tea ,

I think most can do it (esp. if you flash something like OpenWRT), but I have an entry-level enterprise router from Mikrotik and that’s a pretty standard feature on that tier.

Thassodar , to asklemmy in What is a new low key snack that you have tried and liked ?

Marlin jerkey. I was on a bit of a jerky kick last year and ordered all kinds of weird jerky, but the marlin jerky was my favorite. I think I got a lemon pepper flavored one from a company in Hawaii.

Ferrous , to asklemmy in Running: tips and advice?
  1. sustained elevated heartbeat is what gets you into shape. Aim for long slow runs over erratic runs with walking mixed in.
  2. if you are doing this as a lifestyle thing, I commend you. If you are an early riser, 5am runs are the way to go. However, find a running schedule that is sustainable. If you find yourself struggling to keep at the morning runs, adjust your schedule into one that allows you to be routine.

Best of luck

frank ,

I lift in the mornings sometimes cuz my schedule works better that way, but I just can’t run in the morning. It’d be nicer to do and have done, but my body just won’t. I have a lot better of a run after work or in the evenings. Your mileage may vary, for sure.

The best exercise plan, the best budget, the best diet – whatever one you can stick to

@AdrianTheFrog@lemmy.world avatar

I have a reverb g2 and the only linux projects that support it don’t work with the controllers

Microsoft is going to kill WMR in the next couple years so I’ll probably switch then, luckily it seems like people are working on controller support already so hopefully that’s stable by november 2026

AnUnusualRelic , to linuxmemes in Why Are You Staying On Windows 11?
@AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world avatar

I don’t use it (haven’t used Windows in decades), but I kept a small partition with Windows 11 on it which I boot from time to time as I enjoy watching what it’s becoming.

It’s like watching a slow motion industrial accident. Horrifying fascination.

Just straight up scranning some homemade kimchi
