AbidanYre,

Tiny Core runs on my 25 year old Pentium 2.

There’s an RFC for that

What's an elegant way of automatically backing up the contents of a large drive to multiple smaller drives that add up to the capacity of the large drive?

So I have a nearly full 4 TB hard drive in my server that I want to make an offline backup of. However, the only spare hard drives I have are a few 500 GB and 1 TB ones, so the entire contents will not fit all at once, but I do have enough total space for it. I also only have one USB hard drive dock so I can only plug in one...

Git annex can do that and keep track of which drive the files are on.

    AbidanYre,

    Amazon is definitely not any better if morality is your concern.

    For tablets, maybe one of the offerings from Pine64. Not sure how user friendly they are though.

    I’m not saying build your own, I’m saying that if you want to avoid Google for morality reasons, buying a Kindle is, at best, a lateral move.

    AbidanYre,

    Tomb might fit your needs

    AbidanYre,

    You can increase the size of a tomb, but IIRC it’s an offline process.

    AbidanYre,

    That doesn’t help the people who lost data.

    And the reports are common enough that it suggests cryptomator should consider making some interface changes.

    AbidanYre,

    That’s fair. But I’d still be really wary of something with a reputation for eating data just because a user looked at it funny.

    AbidanYre,

    “No wireless? Less space than a Nomad? Lame”

    You’ve solved one of the critiques.

    How to check a direct downloaded mkv file

    Decided to dip my toes in so I followed the guide to a website where I can download some content via google drive. Like an idiot, I didn’t research the risks of direct downloads before and so I’m now a bit paranoid. I understand the chances are low and my media player needs to be exploited but is there a way to be certain? A...

    AbidanYre,

    As long as it opens in a media player instead of trying to run as an executable, you’re probably fine.

    AbidanYre,

    The pinebooks are pretty inexpensive. I can’t speak to quality or usability though

    I’ve been eyeing the framework-in-a-case option.

    AbidanYre,

    If it was any company at all except Amazon there would be hope

    You won’t be saying that in a couple months when Facebook makes their own announcement.

    AbidanYre, (edited )

    I have to question their commitment to 480p though.

    Sometimes quantity is more important than quality. Hard drives ain’t free.

    AbidanYre,

    Press ‘m’

    The Futurama box sets I have are interlaced and the rips look absolutely terrible if I don’t remember to set the playback options right when I watch an episode.

    AbidanYre,

    I ended up writing a Python script that pulls data using tmdb’s api.

    The files still need to be checked though. Dvd authoring is always a crapshoot.

    AbidanYre,

    I would strongly suggest you not pirate things on your work computer/network.
