retrieval4558,

Yeah as someone who has gotten into Linux and DIY computer builds in the last year, I’ve been pretty sad at some deletions. Ultimately the fault is on Reddit itself but still pretty sad.

I use a fractal design node 304. It’s pretty cool, but has all the limitations and problems you would expect from a case that size.

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...

retrieval4558,

Probably not the answer you’re looking for but I’d probably build a dedicated nas.

I’m hopelessly addicted to caffeine and the withdrawal from it is such a bitch, especially compared to cannabis withdrawal.

Kubuntu on my desktop and Fedora KDE on my laptop. I probably should explore some other DEs (I have some experience with cinnamon and xfce) but just really like KDE lol.

Also unRAID on my nas if that counts.

I just did something similar last week. My criteria were 1) small form factor like a Chromebook, 2) not actually a Chromebook, 3) could swap out or install an m.2 SSD.

I ended up getting a harddrive-less old Latitude 3190 for 30$ off eBay, put a 256gb SSD in (had it lying around + that’s the max capacity supported I think), and ended up installing fedora KDE. It’s not perfect but for the price it’s amazing

HWAT??

I’ve got an old one that I am trying that on first thing tomorrow. I assume you can plug the battery back in afterwards?

retrieval4558,

Yeah, did some research and it ended up being a screw that needed removed. Regardless, I didn’t know this was possible at all so I’m quite happy

I think there’s waaaay more 9s than that

issues with QbitTorrent stalled torrents

I am just getting back my sea legs, but apparently they’re pretty shaky because I can’t get my ubuntu torrent (no seriously, it is) to download. It never starts downloading and is stuck in “stalled”. I’ve tried a number of things, but even with default settings it isn’t starting. I’m using proton VPN on Linux Mint,...

retrieval4558,

I had a similar problem recently on windows. Qbittorrent (version 4.5.3 ish? Don’t quote me) bound to paid proton VPN. Torrents would be added automatically by sonarr, but remain “stalled” until I restarted qbittorrent with administrator permissions. It would work for a day before it stalled out again and I had to manually restart it. Happened for months. Never figured out why.

retrieval4558,

Looks like AvistaZ has it. They have open sign ups pretty regularly, just search for their discord.
