HelloRoot

Thanks for the patient reply. The history of printers is super intriguing.

How/why are you printing on a goddammn mirror?

Is that a thing? Is it normal? I never saw it before...

I guess people don't like youtube video post spam that has no description or discussion topic

I didn't watch either, but I think it's about this:

That tool was designed to help users hide transaction history and protect financial privacy on public blockchains.

Authorities prosecuted him, arguing the tool was used to facilitate money laundering and other illegal activity.

@pmjv@lemmy.sdf.org ... bro, I think you got hacked bro like for real

Games often write to Program Files, system-wide redistributables, or shared folders. VC++ runtimes, DirectX, .NET, PhysX installers all require admin.

Repack scripts are usually written to “just work” everywhere, so they have the stuff mentioned above built in. Or maybe fitgirl is just lazy and asks for admin even if it is not strictly needed.

There is definitely a risk of malware etc. when pirating, so you are not dumb to be wary.

Ideally you'd install the game in a VM first and run some virus/malware check on the whole VM afterwards.

Waiting for the pine64 shift with this one

journalctl --list-boots

If you see multiple entries without reboots, those intermediate boundaries are suspend/resume cycles.

you can get the last resupe time with either

journalctl -b -1 -g "PM: suspend exit"

or maybe

journalctl -g "resume from suspend"

I don't have my laptop with me rn, so it would be nice if somebody can confirm whether this works

I tried that once and it takes way longer to run a backup. I forgot ehy exactly, something with running the comparisons against everything.

I have 2 powered RAID enclosures from icybox with 2 multi TB HDD in each one. The RAID is set to mirror the drives.

They are connected via usb 3 to a raspberry pi which runs borgbackup.

One is in my own place, just next to the main server.

The other is at my parents place in another city.

All my desktops, laptops and servers have borgmatic installed with the two pi's as two targets. So when I create a backup it gets send to both locations. On my PCs I manually do a borg backup like once a month when I feel like it. The server computers are all on a daily schedule.

Borg has extremely efficient compression and defuplication. So having 20 historical snapshots of the whole file storage of each device takes about 30% less space than the original size on disk.

For example my desktop currently uses ~800GB but the borgbackup of said desktop takes only ~500GB.

The only disadvantage I find is that there is no cross system deduplication.

The super useful advantage is that I was able to just take the HDD enclosure, plug it into my Desktop and restore whatever files I want. I did an rsync to a blank fs once and it restored everything properly. And it's pretty cheap. like 150$ total per backup location without any significant monthly costs.

I used hetzners storagebox for a while for borgbackups but restoring from it was SO SLOW. And my internet connection is not stable enough to do that without interruptions for multiple days. Never again, except for using it as an extra last resort "cloud" backup.

The earliest documented instances of piracy are the exploits of the Sea Peoples who threatened the ships sailing in the Aegean and Mediterranean waters in the 14th century BC. ...
