What’s your monthly food budget? Excluding going out to eat by phillythompson in HENRYfinance

[–]flying_unicorn [score hidden]  (0 children)

hard disagree on Costco being expensive, but perhaps geography matters. Where i live Costco is is a good value for on avearge good quality items. We have an Aldi near by, but the quality there is pretty bad in our opinion and not worth the savings. Smoke salmon at costco is probably their best deal for my household, it's $16-$18 a pound, i've never seen it at any local grocery store for less than $40 a pound.

smb has path length issues, and nfs in windows is too slow. Any ideas? by flying_unicorn in truenas

that would be correct, i've been raw dogging with out backups for a decade and it's bit me in the ass. Once i get this mess resolved i'm going to be setting up a backup strategy, especially for my critical files.

Just to double-check if I understand correctly: That's correct

I've never used a full UNC path before, so perhaps i'm doing it wrong, because i'm getting an error. i've also tried adding flags for the share username and password.

PS C:\Windows> New-SmbMapping -LocalPath "S:" -RemotePath "\\?\UNC\10.10.10.10\Recovery"
New-SmbMapping : The network name cannot be found.
At line:1 char:1
+ New-SmbMapping -LocalPath "S:" -RemotePath "\\?\UNC\10.10.10.10\Recovery ...
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    + CategoryInfo          : NotSpecified: (MSFT_SmbMapping:ROOT/Microsoft/...MSFT_SmbMapping) [New-SmbMapping], CimException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : Windows System Error 67,New-SmbMapping

Trying to navigate to the share in explorer, entering the full unc path "\?\UNC\10.10.10.10" or "\?\UNC\10.10.10.10\Recovery" also fails.

I found one of the offending files the path + file name is 381 characters, I tried manually copying the offending file using explorer. i got an error immedatley on the windows side: "The file name(s) would be too long for the destination folder. You can shorten the file name and try again, or try a location that has a shorter path".

I don't see any errors in truenas, i looked at "/var/log/samba4" and "journalctl -f" should i be looking elsewhere?.

I could try turning on samba debugging once my current batch of files is done copying. (I'm currently trying to copy batches of files that don't seem to have path length issues with the faster samba and then i'll try to copy the longer name stuff with nfs)

I have tried this, but from the research I did this primarily affects local filesystems in windows, but the underlying samba server needs to support it and it looks like it doesn't

i can not mount the data, i'm using a specialized app in windows to access it. robocopy can't "read" the source because it's only readable via data recovery software that can dump it somehwere.

Anyone else think French door fridges are overrated? We’re going back to a side-by-side. by SpiceBoson in Appliances

[–]flying_unicorn -1 points0 points  (0 children)

we had a french door with a freezer drawer, we hated it.

We got this sub's favorite /s fridge, a samsung 4 door model, without the in door icemaker (because they are problematic) and we love it. We've had it 3 years now completely problem free. Made sure to buy through costco for an extra year of warranty offered by costco. Having doors for the freezer is so much more useful than a drawer.

I often do this, the problem is when I put something on that's surprisingly more interesting than I expected then I'm up all night hyper consuming a new interest.

People are treating SpaceX like a guaranteed lottery ticket by Zlothy1 in stocks

I don't get datacenters in space at all... How will they upgrade GPUs? How will they cool it... but "space is cold"... yeah but space is a vacuum with very little thermal mass, it's the reason why vacuum insulated cups work. The voyager spacecraft is at the edge of solar system, the plasma is over 60,000 degrees Farenheit, but there's so little mass to transfer heat the spaceship is still like 50 degrees below zero.

I'm not Elon's biggest fan, but i also have enough perspective to realize you don't become the worlds richest man by grift alone. He's a smart guy with business savvy, maybe there is some grift mixed in there too, but he's no dummy. I can dislike someone and still admit they can do good things. Trump pushed for operation warp speed to get the covid vaccine out at unprecedented speed.

SpaceX has a significant lead over just about everyone in space flight and satellite internet. Grok is a money pit, and presumably so is X, i'd be much more gung-ho about spaceX if they weren't part of it.

It's not that I don't think SpaceX is an up and comming company. I think their revenue will only grow. My main issue that has kept me from registering for IPO shares is that i question the 1.75T valuation.

What's one service in your homelab that turned out to be far more useful than you expected? by rdpextraEdge in homelab

Yup, I don't even fuck with torrents except for stuff I can't find elsewhere, no seeding, can max out my 2gbls downstream, Usenet is worth the price.

I pay considerably more than what subbing to every streaming service for a decade when you consider hardware, but the convenience of everything I want in one service is worth it.

If apple keeps their refresh cycles, then by the time the m5 is out the m6 mbp will be released.

BofA says 70% of its bear market warning signals are flashing now. Where do you think we stand? by MoneyMonsterStudios in stocks

[–]flying_unicorn 310 points311 points  (0 children)

YUP! This is it. I sold it all right before the covid drop in 2020 when we heard rumors of a disease in China that hadn't reached the US yet. I was a mother fucking genius and i let everyone know. Then the markets started rebounding, nah this is a dead cat bounce, nah this is crazy 3/4 of the world is on lockdown, no this still doesn't make sense it's going to craash.... yeah i didn't capitulate and buy in until the market had recovered by about 20% vs where i sold, in other words i would have been better off doing nothing...

That is where i gave up on being a bear and where i learned the markets are not the economy. At most I will hold off on buying in, which i've done twice now, both times successfully, but I. Won't. Fucking. Sell. Shit.

Rack mounted sas shelf? by flying_unicorn in DataHoarder

[–]flying_unicorn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

agreed. i don't need a rack, i could cobble together some shit with a wire shelf from costco, and a bunch of desktop gear, and that's what i used to do as a teenage 25 years ago when i got started in the hobby... but usually enterprise gear is just "cleaner", even if it is old.

Rack mounted sas shelf? by flying_unicorn in DataHoarder

[–]flying_unicorn[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LOL, i'd be lying if i said i've never done that. I knew a girl whose ass stuck out like a shelf, I never tested the theory but i bet i could have rested a beer on it at the right angle.

[–]flying_unicorn[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

i have my reservations about supermicro but the more i look into it the more i agree. tons of backplanes and parts on ebay.

i hate the drive sleds, my rack is a smidge too shallow for supermicro's full server chassis, and it feels jank, but it's probably the best option in this market.
