traches , to selfhosted in If you had to redo your self hosting setup, what would you do differently this time around?

The only real pain point I have is my hard drive layout. I’ve got a bunch of different drive sizes that are hard to expand on without wasting space or spending a ton.

nhoad ,

Depending on your comfort level and setup, you could use LVM. Then the differently sized hard drives wouldn’t be such a problem.

Or if you want a much more complex situation, you could set up Ceph. It will also give you redundancy, but it’s a really steep learning curve.

Or mergerfs if you are not too concerned with performance

Btrfs also allows for mixed size drive. It’s the reason why I use it

Edit: autocorrect

traches ,

I’m on btrfs. I have a 14 TB, a 16TB, and two 7TB drives in RAID1. I’m running out of space for all my linux ISOs and I’d really like to transition to some sort of 3 or 4:1 parity raid, but you’re not supposed to use that and I don’t see a clear path to a ZFS pool or something

Frederic , to linux in What do you like about your Linux Distro?

MX Linux AHS because of xfce, it’s fast, stable, use a recent kernel, no systemd.

linkbattosai , to linux_gaming in Has anyone gotten Street Fighter 6 to run on Pop_OS?
@linkbattosai@lemmy.one avatar

Do you have mangohud or a game scope enabled? There’s currently something going on between the Steam Plant and the NVIDIA drivers where on my end I have to disable mangohud for any of my Steam games launch. I’ve read that the new beta client of Steam fixes the issue.

Sterben , to nostupidquestions in How does an app like Threads get access to financial, political, health, religious or browsing info through your phone's OS. What is the actual source of that data?
@Sterben@lemmy.world avatar

As long as you use iOS (Apple) or Android (Google) services you will never have any kind of privacy.

First, using Gmail is not a good idea if you care about your privacy. Google is known to being reading email contents.

Second, you buy the device, not the OS. so both Apple and Google will try to profit from you using their OS.

Apple looks like is good for privacy, but I am afraid with iOS closed source there is no way to know. On iOS, app like TikTok can track the sh#t out of you even if you ask not to.

And Android is focused around Google, so using it means give up on privacy. However, you can install GrapheneOS (Android ROM), which is much more secure and privacy focused.

5redie8 , to showerthoughts in Now that we are all switching to Lemmy, now is the time for all the redditors with embarrassing usernames to make their username right! Don't screw up this time!

I’ve never felt so free as finally ditching my 2013 tier username

Iron_Lynx , to lemmyshitpost in Truth.

NL here: Imported American trucks. You do not need a car that costs €5000/month in fuel alone that you cannot use practically in any way that a van, a regular car or even a bakfiets could do more cost-effectively. The only people who go through the effort to get such a vehicle are compensating for something, and a Dodge Ram in The Netherlands is only useful for dick measuring, and the most significant thing it’ll ever move is the owner’s fragile ego.

5redie8 ,

We look at those people the same in the US too tbf lol

In NL they have a lot less legitimity, there are no mountains, no huge private farms, no vast plains with subpar roads.

Coherence , to books in What are you reading this week? [July 3-July 9, 2023]

Stand on Zanzibar - John Brunner

Acid , to startrek in Who are your favorite Trek reviewers/Youtubers?
@Acid@startrek.website avatar

Honestly, the only one I still catch from time to time is Sean on Trek culture because all the other ones got absurdly hostile the last few years when it came to Discovery & Picard and it ended up with people quoting some truly insane alt right sources like midnights edge.

I find it better to just enjoy the shows and discuss on reddit(now lemmy) than watch these influencers.

small44 , to nostupidquestions in Should I try to access an old Facebook account that I lost access to to delete it?

There’s no point, they will not delete your data even if you delete your account

lambda_notation , (edited ) to selfhosted in What file system do you use and why?

jfs+lvm on personal machines, ceph on storage, I used to use zfs on solaris and freebsd but haven’t touched it in linux (there isn’t any good reason, and I prefer to not break licensing)

Kissaki , to nostupidquestions in We're growing quite fast! Let's discuss our future and what you'd like us to do. [META]

The rule list could use some formatting so they are scannable. Right now every rule is one long text paragraph. If the central words or short summary head were bold it’d be much better UI and UX wise.

It may be worth it to consider or discuss whether certain types of questions that have more fitting alternative communities should be posted there and not here. (General open questions may be better fit on asklemmy. Questions that are not “stupid” either through lack of knowledge or lack of context knowledge or risk of being looked down upon may not belong here.) Although moderating those could become difficult because they may not always be clearly one or the other.

Asking for opinions is not a possibly considered stupid question unless it’s something people generally don’t have to ask about or shouldn’t ask about.

meldrik , to youshouldknow in YSK: Pixelfed replaced Instagram for me, the same way Lemmy replaced reddit.

Is there even a proper mobile app for Android and iOS yet? Pixelfed won’t take off because the concept is dependent on a smartphone app.

ConsciousLochNess , to showerthoughts in I think I would take monarchy over whatever this corpo hellscape is. At least a monarch can be overthrown. How can you overthrow a multi-national corporation?
@ConsciousLochNess@lemmy.world avatar

Man you would love NRx-type thinking and people like Mencius Moldbug if you’re interested in this line of thought.

Clean the oven, make some bread (cheating with breadmaker today), do some washing.

Not much else as wife had tooth out yesterday and is feeling a bit out of sorts.

What an exciting life!

shadowbert , to selfhosted in Email Hosting w/SMTP, what do you use?
@shadowbert@kbin.social avatar

Mailcow dockerised is a solid option. It also has a really nice built in DNS checker which was very useful for getting that set up right.
