The nice thing about keeping most of my stuff on spinning rust is the throughput on the drives are just about the same as the network.

Asshole roosters roast quite nicely. Lots of dark meat and more of a turkey flavor. Not sure if it's them being aggressive jackasses or not, though.

Does a double wheel caster count as two wheels or one? Either way, every office chair probably has 5 wheels, 10 if it counts as double.

I think this is all Velcro has to do to keep they're trademark. If you think about it, there's not much ends they can do besides the occasional PSA, what are they going to do, sue someone who says Velcro? Besides, I think they kind of enjoy trying to make "It's a hook and loop fastener!" their new slogan.

Yellow means it's turning red. Beyond that the safest way to treat it is how everyone else in the area treats it. It's like what I tell my stepson, it's better to be predictable than right. There's a lot of dead pedestrians and cyclists that had the right of way.

I had to use various AIs to create an SOP for one of my courses this year. It was so much more exhausting than just writing one because there's so much you can't trust in it. Almost every section had a very specific reference that I needed to check to be sure it wasn't hallucinating.

Luckily I was supposed to pick one as my favorite, so I chose the one with the fewest specific references, deleted the few it had and generalized them instead.

Less options and it expects user input, so when you update and there's a changelog or warning, it shows it to you and you can read it. It doesn't continue because it thinks you're there reading it. The options and output are subject to change, so you don't want it in a script. Apt-get will always have the same options and expected output for automation purposes.

Well, music is kind of a team sport, I'd be pissed if one of the percussionists could never hit the damn triangle at the right time.

Of which no one would know about had they been practicing proper opsec. Point signal.

I'm sometimes disappointed that I live in blue NM. There's no politician I can hassle, and Stansbury is even arranging protests, so who am I supposed to yell at when she's there in the crowd?

Throwing shit at a wall and walking away isn't that big of a flex.

LVM question (lemmy.world)
submitted 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) by Cenzorrll@lemmy.world to c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
 

Hi all, I'm playing around with LVMs to expand data storage and I'm looking at what would be required to transfer those drives to another device, all the steps I can find require exporting the volume group and then importing on the other device. But what would be the case if your boot drive were to fail, and you needed to move the drives without being able to export the volume group. Can you just do an import with a new device, or are there other steps required to do so?

Secondly, is there a benefit to creating an LVM volume with a btrfs filesystem vs just letting btrfs handle it?

 

Hi sysadmins, I am thinking of doing a pretty drastic career change. I have 10+ years of experience in chemistry doing bioanalysis and a few years repairing breath alcohol analyzers. I have always considered messing around with electronics, networking, and computers/servers as a hobby and have been using various Linux distros as my main os for almost 20 years.

I have come to see my specialty in my line of work as a dead end. I'm pretty damn good at my job but I feel like automation is going to be taking over very soon, and I'm not that good that I think I'll be in the top 10% that get to stick around and run the automations when the robots finally take over. So I'm considering doing a career change to IT/sysadmin.

What I'd like to know is what should I learn how to do to see if I'll even like moving down this path? What can I set up at home, break, then fix that would give me an idea as to what the sysadmin life is really like?

I'm pretty sure I haven't ever really done any sysadmin type work with my home setups, seeing as I build and set up services I want for myself and at the level I'm willing to put up with. For the most part I can be handed something already implemented and work within that space to keep it going and adjust it to what I want it to do or fit my set up. I can usually find my way through log files and error codes to figure out what the problem is and duckduckgo my way to a fix.

 

Alright meshers, I've been playing around with meshtastic for some time now and I've ended up with a good number of devices. I'm mostly in the rakwireless boat, with a pair of heltecs.

I have two RP2040 (rak11310) units that I just can't come up with a good use for. They use less power than a heltec on full blast, but don't have Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. If you disable Bluetooth and Wi-Fi on the heltec and turn on power saving, the heltec ends up using less power for what I can see as the same capabilities as the RP2040.

So, what can I put these units to use for? The processor is definitely more powerful than the NRF52 boards, but meshtastic doesn't seem to need any more than the NRF52 has to offer. With power saving, the heltecs can perform equally well with less power, while also having a more powerful processor in case it's needed.
