I’m getting old…KISS!

I use du -hs * | sort -h

… Herpes?

Power is a big factor. I’ve never built a specifically torrenting machine, but I’ve added torrenting containers to my virtualized NAS, and for that I’ve built a server based on an AsRock integrated board, it’s passively cooled so it’s silent and intrinsically power efficient. They’re usually limited in RAM, but I got it up to 32GB by buying verified compatible sticks.

As for building ratio, something like autobrr helps get the torrents as soon as they are announced, improving your uploads, and on trackers where it is supported, seed bonus is nice, you can keep seeding old torrents and convert the points to upload.

I was assigned the installation of a whole industrial line for food packaging, multiple millions worth, on and off I spent like 8 months abroad forcing badly designed machines into working (I was the top tech and I resigned after this job), even ended up in the hospital, likely due to stress. Few months after I left, I go out drinking with a former colleague who had been on site with me, he says: “Well, I’m happy to inform you that, the customer hasn’t called us for months! Means everything’s working, great job!” and shook my hand.

The following morning, another former colleague sends me the screenshot of a mail from the customer saying that the business opportunities didn’t work out and they’re decommissioning the line. Literal blood, sweat and tears, completely wasted.

I use Nobara on my desktop and Fedora on my laptop, they both work fine, although I’ve had a few audio issues on Nobara, but it could be the different hardware. I don’t play emulators, but every game I’ve tried on Nobara worked with no fiddling, just recently: Cyberpunk 2077, Subnautica, Horizon Forbidden West, X4…

I’ve been using Fedora for I don’t know how long, over a decade I’d say, and it’s hard to overstate it’s stability, it just works, and has great repos. My main annoyance is the frequent major version updates, it’s a quick process anyway, and I never had problems.

definitely not as easy as virtualbox

I’m in ops but it’s… Unconventional. I’m having trouble building ratio.

Just like @BearOfaTime@lemm.ee suggested, Syncthing-fork works fine for now, I’ve been using it on my phone to sync logseq notes and I haven’t had any issues so far

I use the Kodi app on my smart tv to watch movies and shows shared from my server via SMB, never had any problems, aside from green tint on some HDR encodings. My TV’s wired tho.

Yes but I don’t know why

I use NUT with an Eaton Ellipse but it periodically stops working and I’m forced to restart the container

I used to have a Nextcloud instance on a shared webhost… It ran like shit but you can’t beat the storage space… VPS storage is expensive.

Now I use syncthing on my home server

There’s no rules here

Gets a bit annoying when you’ve got a tower with 15 years of old drives from previous builds connected

If you’re not yet confident in your Linux skills, a good idea would be to disconnect all drives except the one you want to install on, during installation… especially if you have multiple drives of the same size

I mean, people collect all sorts of weird shit

“it works for me!”

Accelerating wayland développement would mean forking it.

You mean feurking

“Please Mr. Router, mercy!”
