last year when I went back to Arch from Manjaro, I made a critical error. I’m not sure if I was just tired when partitioning things off or what. but I made my root only 20GB instead of the 50 that I had intended. I know in a lot use cases that’ll be fine, but in mine, not so much. with steam compat taking up 1-2gb and...
Highly recommend using lvm in the future. You can undersize your partitions and when whichever one you need more space on it’s easy to grow. Also really easy to live migrate to other drives as needed. Good luck.
Smoking -dilates- constricts your blood vessels and capillaries. Drinking thins your blood. After quitting your body is going to over compensate the other way for a little while.
Congratulations on quitting.
Edit: correction for constricts rather than dilation

However, with multiple streaming services starting to insert adds into my paid subscriptions, I’m looking to upgrade to a network blocker that will...
I’m planning to set up proper backups for my server, but I’m not sure which software to use. I’ve looked for solutions with encryption, compressed, incremental backups. These seem to be the best options:...
I setup a script to backup my lvm volumes with kopia. About to purchase some cloud storage to send it off site. Been running for a while de duplication working great. Encryption working as far as I can tell. The sync to other repo option was the main seller for me.
Curious on the implementation. For example apps like signal and WhatsApp require you to either move or lose your data when you get a new phone. This will have to be the way Google implements or they are storing it somewhere on their servers.
I made a mistake **RESOLVED**

Is it normal for your BP to rise after quitting
Quit drinking and smoking cold turkey 9 days ago and my BP is about 140s over 80s (was observed to be even higher about 72 hours in)....
Pi-Hole or something else for network ad blocking?
