It's getting a little better now because they can just scan in what they wrote and OCR it

I like how they manage to shoehorn Old Norde into the map but ignored Russian and Polish.

What does the 3-2-1 rule look like for you? (lemm.ee)
 

I'm trying to plan a better backup solution for my home server. Right now I'm using Duplicati to back up my 3 external drives, but the backup is staying on-site and on the same kind of media as the original. So, what does your backup setup and workflow look like? Discs at a friend's house? Cloud backup at a commercial provider? Magnetic tape in an underground bunker?

It'll be a great run or a great story!

[SOLVED] Problem getting Samba to work in c/linux4noobs@programming.dev
[–] SnootBoop@lemm.ee 1 points 3 months ago

Thank you, creating my own config file from scratch worked. Not sure if I'm remembering wrong. For some reason I thought in the past it was created with the install.

Yeah, I was trying to figure out why the install didn't create a config file or a log file. Can't do setup without the config.

Thank you. Removed the samba package and installed following the instructions. It still didn't create a config or a log file. I'll keep troubleshooting.

I'll appreciate it if you have a chance to check. I ran sudo apt update --fix-missing and didn't see anything.

I've installed Samba on my Debian 12 home server but can't get it to start. I ran:

sudo systemctl start smbd
sudo systemctl status smbd

Here is the output:

   Duration: 7h 25min 18.079s
  Condition: start condition failed at Fri 2025-02-14 17:13:11 EST; 14min ago
       Docs: man:smbd(8)

             man:smb.conf(5)
    Process: 598599 ExecCondition=/usr/share/samba/is-configured smb (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE)

Feb 14 17:13:11 harvee systemd[1]: Condition check resulted in smbd.service - Samba SMB Daemon being skipped.

The install also doesn't seem to have created a samba configuration directory in /etc or a log in /var/log

I'm stumped. Googling turns up a lot of people accidentally checking the status of 'samba' instead of 'smbd', but I'm not finding much on this issue. What am I doing wrong?

I could see that, but I also run with an arm strap phone carrier

This is why I run naked, wrapped in cellophane

Exactly. Although I haven't worn mine to the sauna yet...that might be the next test. I put a small one in my backyard so I usually just grab a robe for the walk to it and back and a towel to sit on.

What am I missing without expensive running shorts? (lemm.ee)
 

Bought a few $10 pairs of gym shorts from a big box store, probably an 8" inseam. I wear boxer brief style compression undies when I run, so netting and how they feel on my skin isn't really an issue. They have side pockets that are fine for carrying my key fob, which is the only thing I really need for most runs. On runs they seem completely adequate. What am I missing by not wearing more expensive or nicer shorts purpose made for running? Is it one of those things where if I try something nicer I won't be able to go back?

Stone Mill vs JFK (lemm.ee)
 

Has anyone run both the JFK and Stone Mill 50 miler? I've done JFK but want to do Stone Mill this year and want to see how they compare.
