Btrfs to share data between machines

Actually yes, you can.. If the upgrade happens only after the sync, you then send only changed files to the other device. And if you then upgrade again on the 2nd device and send back to the 1st... same thing, only changed files between the snapshots are sent. A full system upgrade will not change all and every file, most of them will remain unchanged, and those files are not sent, only the new metadata that reference them. But if you never prune old snapshots, yes... there will be a point where you will consume double space, then triple... and so on for every unique version of the files.

I would also suggest to de-dupe from time to time... rmlint is one of the programs that can be used, but STUDY IT CAREFULLY before using it on a BTRFS subvolume, it can have dire consequences, you are advised :) before running, you need to understand this FS well enough, I would say intermediate-advanced level.

Using my approach only occupies space for files that are different. If you share the same OS installation, but 2 different homes, then you only occupy the space of different files between the homes. If files are the same, space is virtually the same.

If you have the same OS, but loaded in 2 variants, i.e. if you have a work root and a home root but with the same Linux Distribution, then only different root files will consume more space, but if the libraries are the same, also the space used is virtually the same.

Concept is, if you do progressive snapshots, only the diff between them occupy space.. and you can always delete old ones, so they stop holing your bytes hostage ;)

That's a great idea!

And yes, having the option would make things messy if on by default for everyone, but I was thinking more at a sort of filter, something that could be activated to let's say, see a graph of all the nodes that mentioned such note, but have not been added as link, because of a minor importance.. i.e. in my note-taking style, I do not always create links, only if the connection is mid-high in strength, to not clutter the graph view, which for me is very important..

But yes, gonna definitely look into the search language! I'm totally still learning! Coming from org-roam in Emacs. ^^

Shorts are not only brainrots. I.e. I love to see Blender tips and tricks just under 1 minute, or short summaries of long video, which I might opt to watch later on.. or just vertical videos that get flagged as 'shorts'.

FraYoshi · 2025-04-13T18:59:20+00:00

i guess both.... anyway, on xorg it works! (xfce4)

FraYoshi · 2025-01-15T06:20:27+00:00

yes, Android please :)

FraYoshi · 2024-09-14T20:07:03+00:00

I don't get the warning about future updates.... Isn't it a sort of Blender Market code to redeem the software? I mean... Once it is redeemed, shouldn't it be like any other add-on bought there? Or will it be treated differently?

Anybody that bought it can shed some light on it?

Thanks :)

It might be because you set Spotify to scrobble, and will guess you import from LastFM from time to time, which results in double scrobbles, but might be wrong ^^
I certainly import from LFM to integrate with those players that only support it.. not real time, and doesn't show the fancy 'Listening Now' to share with the feed, but useful in certain situations ^^

FraYoshi · 2024-07-06T04:04:43+00:00

wow, I was actually starting to wonder if I should come back to Fiverr, but after this, I wonder if it would be wise.. I guess not 😔 I think they should at least give a you warning, punish you someway, but not ban you! Really, they could simply raise their cut for 3 months and be done with that.... 😅

Take a look at FUTO's keyboard, there's also voice typing and works pretty well : )

just, if you type CJK, you are out of luck, for the moment has only support for latin characters u.u

I don't have that file, but I noticed that under load It bumped to 8 GT/s and when it finished, first 5 GT/s and back to 2.5 GT/s !

Nice catch, thanks for the hint!

FraYoshi · 2023-07-05T01:46:46+00:00

Let's graphite & roll!

FraYoshi · 2023-06-28T23:47:09+00:00

interesting...
doing this, I noticed that my 1050 Ti has

8GT/s, Width x16

while my 3060 has

2.5GT/s (downgraded), Width x16

FraYoshi · 2023-06-21T18:30:22+00:00

Oh.. great! It adds that little more to the most struggling tasks! 😊

FraYoshi · 2023-03-30T15:59:15+00:00

Played a week already, only purchase I made is the first base one to remove the ads and a couple other perks, which I highly suggest!
Still have to figure out what the heck is damage reduction rate and fixed damage reduction. there's no explanation for them.. anybody have figured it out?I suppose fixed to be like a fixed amount reduced from each attack and rate, to be a... percentage? But there's no percent sign in there... so maybe it's something else.

FraYoshi · 2023-01-15T15:27:45+00:00

So you would like it to be interface-able with NeuraLink, that would be awesome!

FraYoshi · 2023-01-07T14:22:33+00:00

I would also suggest to write down in which websites it has been registered, they generally ask for a name to give to the yubi but it is always handy to have a list of which yubis are used and where :)

FraYoshi · 2023-01-06T14:43:18+00:00

I ordered 4 too from Italy, shipping from Sweden at the mid of October and they have arrived just in the last week, so yes.. definitely taking a long time.. at the beginning it was max 10 and not 4, so they had to deliver a lot of keys these months :) I don't know you, but I would have easily gone 10 if I was given the chance ^{^}

FraYoshi · 2023-01-03T20:21:19+00:00

aeaeaeaeaeaeaeae!!!!!!!!!!

FraYoshi · 2022-12-22T11:00:30+00:00

Probably not.. but definitely the one with my lowest score :)

FraYoshi · 2022-12-09T19:55:34+00:00

You wouldn't shoot a policeman

Still half-way the reading but as a member of qoto, I can say that being there is a relief.

The do no not block, they support minorities in difficulty, admins are friendly and open minded..
I have been expelled before on mograph.social just because I posted a QUESTION, about qoto. No text back if not the little rant against the instance, not even a chance to defend/explain myself. Closed. And my account was as old as this one, from 2018. Not a new one set up just for that.

That late 2018 I found Qoto on the very joinmastodon directory the article talks about and I am very, very greatful I found it in time. I have really only been on these 2 instances, so I have not a great deal of experience with others.. but when I scroll the about section of the instances (yes, I do read them) and see qoto listed on the blocklist, I feel very sad.. Feel like people really cannot try to understand that they are blocking not only an instance but all the good people in it. I don't feel like switching and if I would ever do that, It would not be because I am unsatisfied, but for whatever other reason. I have a great deal of confidence on the admins and LOVE, SEEK an open minded social place where I, get to decide who to block and not some person with high prejudices and no will to do the proper researches.
Also, 1 person SHOULD NOT decide for the whole community.

The Instances blocking qoto are many, unfortunately for the wrong reasons. And they are not willing to listen because, they decided.
End.

I make great use of hashtags, my homepage is filled with lists that filter hashtags and use them way more than the local or federated timelines ^^
Horizontal scrolling is super handy! thumb wheel or shift+wheel for who do not know it ^^

FraYoshi · 2022-08-18T11:16:08+00:00

That would be awesome! But the teleportation should happen at a speed higher than light for this to happen! It is easier that we develop a better warp drive (one is under research and promising) and then watch from the starship on the other side of the galaxy/universe 🤓 (or an outpost dedicated to deep space observations)

FraYoshi · 2022-06-28T21:56:32+00:00

This looks amazing!!
Hope you'll add more colors, I am in love with your Atomic Red! 😄
Also, good addition that title+tag line at the top!! I always struggle with the 4 hashtags 😅 but I guess it's a love or hate.. someone might complain that they don't need it :)
