Valmond,

fetch, reset --hard, checkout -b and cherry-pick?

:-D

Valmond,

X can be a number.

Questions regarding Old-new Hard drives

Hi, I seek your help once again. I’m in the need of upgrading my storage now and I found what I consider to be a good deal via Amazon on an older gen enterprise WD drive that supposedly hasn’t been used, but I’ll let the power on hours tell me the truth. The price is about 16usd/TB and I’m wondering if this is a bad idea...

Valmond,

Mechanics doesn’t like just sitting around. 10 years is not nothing, I’d definitely take that into account.

Valmond,

Nice!

Anyone knows how much shipping is to Europe (it’s an option but you have to make an account etc, so if someone knows … I’d be happy)?

Valmond,

Christiania of course!

Valmond,

Isn’t it just pusher street that’s closed?

Valmond,

But what’s the green thing in her mouth, the frog driving the android?

Valmond,

Well he travelled forward in time :-)

Valmond, (edited )

There are some sweet used laptops with great runtime in the Lenovo ThinkPad series.

Not new though…

Edit: maybe new if you have the budget ofc

Valmond,

They singlehandedly created this mess.

What are some productive things to do when you wake up in the middle of the night and can't get back to sleep for a few hours?

I’m looking for suggestions that zombie-me could follow through with. The problem is I can barely bring myself to get out of bed, let alone do a useful task. It just wastes typically 2–5 hours of my life as I wait for tiredness to finally (re)take hold.

Valmond,

Who the hell thinks masturbation is bad in our mother of lords year 2000+?

And if you go down the hole and say that masturbating too much is bad, then:

A) Why are you not out there helping them?

B) Everything is bad if “too much”

Cheers

PS. Mine is go to the toilet, then go back to sleep. Or worst case, read the book I’m reading at the moment (touchy because of lighting, I should probably get one of those headlamps or something).

Valmond,

What I think is unhealthy is that you, or anyone else, should decide when masturbation is ok or not lol.

Valmond,

Lot of east-block stuff from after the war too.

Valmond,

I mean if you send them to Russia to check that the next Putin vote count is “correct”, then it would just make the whole voting farce somewhat credible.

Valmond,

You’re changing the question here, all democratic countries has their flaws for diverse reasons (France would be that as there is a two round system, lots of small parties would undermine the democratic outcome, I guess. Sometimes it’s history, almost always it can be better. But we’re democracies at least).

Russia is a dictatorship.

They want Legitimacy and if we, the west, sends people, and even better, we send people and they find no errors (in the small thing they investigate because believe me, Russia won’t allow us to send people checking out other things), that will bring Legitimacy to the dictatorship.

Valmond,

Oh no, a Russ bot, how unsatisfying.

Valmond,

Nah, just an astroturfer. Apparently he’s doing it for free too lol.

Valmond,

Tried to search for ZFS and just hit a lot of different stuff. I’m a senior CS/programmer person, slowly(since quite some time) but steadily floating/flowing/jumping from ms and all their obligatory stuff to a more personal small world. ❤️. Linux & al.

In that smaller world (with FOSS, Lemmy and so on!) I’d love having some sort of hard drive security, where I can chuck in an old drive, or replace another, but, hear me out, change the motherboard controlling all that too.

Today home is a mix of Linux (ThinkPad, ThinkCentre, Dell) Windows (kids playing + the little box for the “windows only” stuff), Mac (Adobe 🥲), and an old old Synology NAS (3TB+2TB backup).

All mixed up on ethernet and WiFi.

I am not going to be able to change this infrastructure very much (cables everywhere already).

Can I set up something so, for example if my ThinkPad crams(drive or mobo or say I just lose the laptop) I can like get it back in working conditions buying another ThinkPad and like switching out a burned out harddrive in a RAID system?

I wonder because Linux seems to separate “your things” and the “os things” very well, but there are obviously lots of other things, can you safeguard those things too?

Cheers to FOSS.

Valmond,

Uh no, I have a distinct backup system with Amazon glacier. My question was about day to say stuff, so that when a drive goes, or a mobo fries, I don’t have to go through all the hassle reinstalling and reconfiguring everything.

Valmond,

Oh yes this seems like it, thanks!

Valmond,

Cool! Post as you like, and share other art communities too, IMO we’re all in it together!

Greebles, guess I just learned a new word :-D that seems, hrm, time consuming to say the least O_o when can we see an example?

Cheers

Valmond,

I see you are working, but these threads are like 7-8 days old. IMO it’s a bit useless.

Valmond,

I don’t know really, I mean the (my) posts went up, worked out and somehow went to sleep forever.

You’re IMO doing the stack overflow approach, so yeah that’s maybe the thing for keeping high value content. I’d not remove posts that easily just yet as there isn’t not that much quality content but that’s just me.

Cool that you’re doing it putting in the time, we’re all in this together!

Cheers

Valmond,

O(k) time to be pedantic, where k is the number of layers.
