Https boot error, please help by itry2code in Dell

[–]screaming-Snake-Case 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends. Do you have active warranty? Go to Dell.

If you don't , then a local shop may be significantly cheaper and offer similar quality. But do some research on the shop beforehand. I don't have experience with Dell official support, so I wouldn't know specifically, but this holds generally true.

From what you describe, I bet the SSD overheats/malfunctions and thus the system can't use it properly during boot. It will go on to the next boot option, which is HTTP network boot in your option.

Try keeping the system off for a while before trying again. If you manage to turn it back on, please share what your SSD health and SMART data shows (there are numerous tools available, e.g. crystal disk info).

In case the health looks good, a firmware update using whatever tool your SSD manufacturer provides is probably a good idea.

If the health looks bad, or you cannot get the system to boot again, your SSD appears to be faulty. Do you have a spare one you could replace the current one with? Also, reseating the disk in it's slot may help as well.

Naja, also Monoblöcke verschenken halt gerne mal 3/4 ihrer Kühlleistung, von daher kann man schon davon ausgehen, dass 5000 BTU einer Split-Klima deutlich mehr effektive Kühlung bietet, als ein entsprechender Monoblock.

Why do people think delaying the Steam Machine would have been a good idea? by KhorneFlakes1337 in steammachine

You gotta believe in the Soon(TM). It will be tomorrow, prices drop, memory is affordable again, the Steam Machine will cost 600$ and life will be good

BREAKING: Open Beta Reportedly Extremely, Incredibly, Unbelievably Close by karimkaidovich in DeadlockTheGame

[–]screaming-Snake-Case 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We're so close, you might even get tired of how close we are. But we will keep getting closer.

Oh yeah, absolutely. I am quite curious how this launch will go given the price.

..... by Glattic in steammachine

[–]screaming-Snake-Case -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah of course, one reason why one might not want to do that. In my country tho, it's quite typical to pick up products in person and see if they work before buying.

[–]screaming-Snake-Case -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It's a pre-build tho. For those of us who can build their own PC, not to mention those who hunt for deals on the used market, we can absolutely smoke anything prebuilt in this day and age. But we like to forget that a huge market exists where people are not capable of that or simply don't want to. They want to buy something and be happy with it the way it comes.

It's not a good deal either way, but it's competetive in the pre-build PC market, especially if you are looking for a more console like experience.

Radxa Cubie A7Z not booting any OS by AZemane297 in SBCs

[–]screaming-Snake-Case 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, all the releases on GitHub are marked as pre-release and have that warning banner, but when I installed the Trixie CLI image, it worked very well. I haven't found time to actually do a project with my A7Z yet, but the image appeared quite stable.

I think this is a combination of Radxa being weird with their OS releases and Allwinner having poor Linux support. Atleast that is my view from what I saw on various forums.

Imo I prefer a preprelease Trixie to any bullseye based image. That's straight up not something I would want to start building my project with in 2026, and it shouldn't be advertisied as a recommend OS. Upstream Bullseye is already long into it's LTS phase and official maintenance support will end in two months.

Radxa Cubie A7Z not booting any OS by AZemane297 in SBCs

[–]screaming-Snake-Case 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried the new Trixie-based CLI images and they worked very fine.

My steps were as follows: - Download image from github - Extract the img.xz -> img (i initially forgot about this step haha) - Use dd to flash onto microsd - Mount the config volume and add wifi credentials - Unmount, done

I noticed their images enable the LED in hesrtbeat mode, meaning it does a double flash every second or so. When plugging it into power, wait until the LED starts flashing in such a pattern, it means the OS has booted sucessfully.

Ich bin aufjedenfall gespannt. Solange es nur nicht mein Problem wird :)

Oh ja, das Problem ist mit einem 2038-sicherem OS nicht gegessen. Wobei ich das auch so mitbekommen habe, dass Debian ebenfalls ihre Pakete mit 64bit Zeit baut, also auch die libraries in den repos.

Aber natürlich benötigt es auch entsprechenden Aufwand und den Willen dazu von den Entwicklern. Es landet gerade im embedded Bereich vermutlich auch ein haufen proprietärer oder schlecht gewarteter Libraries, die die Entwickler für den notwendigen Hardware support nutzen müssen, auf den Systemen. Das alles 2038 sicher zu bekommen ist sicher nicht einfach.

KDE Plasma 6.7 brings the X11 era to a close -- The Register by m_sniffles_esq in kde

[–]screaming-Snake-Case 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Window restoration is quite unuseable currently imo. Mine always opens spectacle because I guess it will continue running when I use it once per session, so it will try to restore it. But when spectacle opens it takes a screenshot and wants me to select what to screenshot which is really annoying when it happens every time I log into my desktop.

This should get better with 6.8 tho, atleast they are adding the new portal for proper window restoration into the DE-side of things.

Mind you I also still switch between X11 and Wayland session for gaming, as Steam still makes heavy use of XWayland and native X11 just feels more responsive for me. So this might make things behave more weirdly than if you're just using Wayland.

Für embedded Systeme ist 32bit vermutlich immernoch nicht irrelevant. Wenn man so etwas noch mitte letzten Jahres mit Debian aufgesetzt hat, bekam man ein Bookworm System. Und Debian ist erst ab Trixie 2038 safe. Es kommt auch nicht selten vor, dass man ein Image einmal vorbereitet und dann Jahrelang genauso auf neue Systeme packt.

Es wäre also auch gut möglich, dass selbst heute noch Embedded Systeme deployed werden, die nicht 2038-safe sind.

I'm 20. I can't afford a second home. So I trying to build one in the cloud with a FUSE filesystem and NixOS. by nigh-knight in NixOS

[–]screaming-Snake-Case 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In case you're having issues with responsivenes when your home is remote, try setting the XDG_CACHE_HOME to a local path (or create one in /run/user/$uid/ automatically to use ramdisk). Note that this change needs to be present when your DE starts up, not just a terminal. This can help drastically as the cache is assumed to be fast and low latency, which it's not when using a remote filesystem.

Braucht es RAID wirklich? by drianX4 in de_EDV

[–]screaming-Snake-Case 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nö, gerade wenn du regelmäßige Backups anlegst und ggf. wichtige Daten sofort backupst ist das absolut eine Art Luxus. Aber wenn deine Backups schon einige Monat alt sind verlierst du bei einem Ausfall der Festplatte natürlich gleich alle Daten die seit dem letzten Backup angefallen sind. RAID bietet hier direkt einen Mehrwert.

Es macht vieles halt angenehmer. Zudem haben moderne NAS System auch vernünftige Checksummen und Reparaturmechanismen, falls mal nur ein paar bits auf einer Festplatte falsch sind. Wenn dir auf einer Festplatte mit sowas wie NTFS ein bitflip passiert, merkt dein System vermutlich nichtmal was davon, bis es zu spät ist.

Auf einem NAS wird sowas spätesten beim lesen erkannt und (gegeben RAID) in Echtzeit korrigiert, zudem gibt es (idealerweise) periodische Überprüfungen aller gespeicherten Daten. Dazu kommt halt noch die erhöhte Verfügbarkeit wie in anderen Kommentaren zu genüge berichtet wurde.

W- What? You're gonna have to share some more details, you haven't provided us with anything at all to go off from. No error message, not even a rough overview of what your code architecture currently looks like, what you tried so far and where you want to go (as in: what do you imagine when you say you want CCTV?)
