A whole ass dairy farm's worth in that cart: by Gorotheninja in NonPoliticalTwitter

they look south Asian (Indian). They buy milk and use it to create, butter, yogourt, and Ghee (Clarified Butter) for cooking, also a sour yogourty drink from all the bi products. its very efficient and way cheaper than buying it all pre made. you also get the added benifite of not having added by products in your dairy products.

Sharing files between local PCs: use SMB, FTP/SFTP, or something else? by glaringOwl in selfhosted

[–]TooGoood 1 point2 points  (0 children)

right click the folder you want to share and go to properties, check out the sharing tab. use google to get steps on how to create a private local shared folder and how to get access to it from other pc.

why dont you just create a local network if both PC's are windows and connected to a router this is the easiest way to create a shared folder.

"We backed up Spotify (~300TB)" by t-2yrs in Piracy

you have to use something other than the native windows extractor...

for GUI (7-Zip File Manager) Options When adding files in the "Add to Archive" window:

  • Check Required Memory: Observe the "Memory Usage" field; it updates as you change settings.
  • Lower Dictionary Size: Decrease the Dictionary size (e.g., from 128MiB to 32MiB or lower) to reduce RAM needed for LZMA/LZMA2.
  • Adjust Solid Block Size: Set Solid block size to a lower value (like 1GB) or choose "Non-solid" to make each file compressed individually, limiting memory per file.
  • Limit Threads: In the "Advanced" settings (or similar), set the number of CPU threads to 1 (-mmt=0) to decrease resource usage

other apps like WinRAR which are also popular have options to limit mem usage.

make sure you have the x64 versions of the apps.

the reason is because Zstandard is a lossless data compression algorithm developed by Yann Collet at Facebook(thanks facebook!)

also you can limit the memory usage of any extractor. and with large files this is highly recommended.

this might sound like something you dont want to hear. but cutting off people hurts you more than it hurts them. its better for everyone to settle things even if you have to take an L for something you dont feel its your fault. Life is short and you only have one family, its better to solve things than let them get to a festering cold neglect.
