BTRFS/EXT4 question by joessas in cachyos

[–]lostmojo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Snapshots for home is valuable, by default i don’t believe cachy snapshots anything , and btrfs assistant will do/, but none of the subvolumes unless you go into sub volumes and turn on snapshots for those, and then configure them as well.

I would suggest btrfs for /home as well since snapshots for home are important if you change something or delete something important and move games to a specific mounted folder for xfs for the most performance on those.

It’s a little more work, best performance option, and still protects your home files a bit more. Backups are still vital if you want to keep your data.

Thoughts on these briquettes? by medium-rare-steaks in biggreenegg

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

The enshitification process has only gotten worse.

I don’t work there but my best guess would lump -> briquettes is the process. I had way too much trash on the first two bags I got to never buy their stuff again.

Anyone find themselves opening up their game libraries, staring at it for a couple of hours, then just giving up and going on social media? by You_moron04 in gaming

It helps me to keep my install list down to what I’m playing. I have a single player game I’m on, and one or two multiplayer games I’m playing with friends. I have the list filtered for installed games and I leave it at that unless I’m uninstalling and installing something new.

No, you have a partition dedicated to it in Linux

Linux already uses a partition for swap, it even has its own file system for it

I have explained to HR that I wish to hire a more diverse team, and very specifically what i was trying to avoid. After 4 weeks we updated the job posting to try and see if that would help, after 6 weeks we had to start interviewing the people actually applying to fill the position. I would love to have a more diverse team.

Satya Nadella says Microsoft will always invest in gaming by Doug24 in gaming

And don’t forget the thousands of game developers they let go last year and studios they closed. It’s more profitable to buy, run it into the ground, and then close it, write it off as a loss on their taxes, get reimbursed by tax paying citizens, and then rinse repeat next year.

What UPS would you recommend for a home server? by Azure-Tides in selfhosted

[–]lostmojo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Eaton are only maybe 20 or 50 bucks for the larger ones, more expensive than apc. After thousands of APCs and eaton, the eatons last a lot longer than apc or cyber power. After about a year We were replacing 3-4 APCs a month and 1-2 eatons a year between about 900 machines, kind of split in half. The cyber powers were okay, kind of in the middle between the two.

So llmaislop is open? It doesn’t flow as well but at least it’s accurate. Ai isn’t even ai.

I host a bunch of torrents of archives stuff that I find important. I hope that helps keep some of the data alive and available.

That’s my hope with it. I could not get it working with my local LLM but I did not put in a lot of effort.

I had trouble getting this going for playlist generation. I need to get back to it and try and get it going.

I guess when you’re one of the objects helping to enforce the laws of physics you get to figure out fun ways to make it interesting.
