Big tech about to erupt into a civil war over whether or not they got into the AI slop bubble early.

i play the coop/ai games for this reason lmao

I hope we see a blossoming of high quality open source games. Beyond all Reason is looking towards a Steam release within the year or so and it’s really impressive how much love can be put into a game that is run almost entirely by donations!

It looks like a very basic screening tool to block suspicious file extensions from being uploaded/downloaded. I wouldn’t read (pun intended) into it too much, but it does mean you might have to work around it via sending epubs as zips or something. I doubt they bother scanning the contents of archives.

in terms of the fight against AI slop this is terrible news. in the fight to access information media freely forever this is almost… good news?

I’m probably in a similar boat thanks to 4x NAS drives (in 2x mirror vdevs so essentially half as power efficient too). I wonder if using an SSD or two for things like caches would help with power draw since you could defer disk usage for longer by relying on a more efficient cache.

SnapRAID is also an option. One benefit is that multiple disks don’t need to be spinning at once to access data. Downside is that your parity isn’t calculated in real time so less data redundancy.

Yeah they really like to act like they’re giving away £50k on a whim and not paying someone for their labour.

I’d probably do a clean install (eventually) even if it looked like stuff works for now.

I know the pain, though. did rm -rf in the wrong directory and wiped half my drive in seconds. Good times.

It’s a pain but also it’s no surprise that DNS and ipv6 are premium when ipv4 and dynamic IP works so well for 99% of us. Even if you wanna host something publicly there are totally free services and software tools to cover most if not all caveats of not using ipv6 (for now).

I have selfhosted for years and only paid for a domain name recently.

no fucking way

metronome for the other components to practice playing songs at the right bpm

Never play R&C but this is more like Portal deathmatch I think?

Yeah even if you’re someone who is super concerned about Jellyfin’s API safety, it’ll likely be less maintenance setting them up on tailscale than duplicating the streaming hardware. But that’s assuming OP’s family are as tech illiterate as mine

I have two 4TB in Raid 10 (ZFS Mirror) and two 8TB as the same. All in TrueNAS Scale.

TrueNAS is pretty good for a basic setup imo!

I would consider creating a swapfile if you have an SSD. There should be countless tutorials for doing it on Ubuntu.

It might mean your windows or Ubuntu install gets sluggish, but even 32GB (less than 10% of a typical storage drive!) of spare swap space can let your active and memory-hogging processes breathe instead of invoking the SystemD-OOM killer. Also, it’s essentially free! You’ll benefit from more RAM though.

For what it’s worth, I think Ubuntu is also fairly aggressive with memory management. I remember complaints that it was a little too hasty to kill user processes under memory-limited scenarios. not sure if that was addressed
