Online Gaming Platforms And YouTube Will Also Seemingly Be Banned For Aussies Under 16 in c/world

[–] isles 8 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

What you say is true, but also ignores the alt-right pipelining that YouTube and others are seemingly complicit in, or at the very least is the result of perverse incentives.

And I'll say the exact same thing about TikTok. It's serving as primary sources for many problems around the world, it's giving more broad and informed, collegiate level discussions of the world, and it's full of brainrotting limbic hijacking. All true and I don't think any generation is fully equipped to deal it.

We can also see historically that banning a "vice" has never effectively removed the vice from society.

NVIDIA Transitions Fully Towards Open-Source GPU Kernel Modules | NVIDIA Technical Blog (developer.nvidia.com)

I'm newer to Linux gaming, but the consensus I've seen is that AMD is better on Linux. Will these actions change your mind? I already have Nvidia hardware, so an open source kernel module sounds like a win.

Question - ZFS and rsync (self.selfhosted)

submitted 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) by isles to c/selfhosted

17 comments fedilink

Hey fellow Selfhosters! I need some help, I think, and searching isn't yielding what I'm hoping for.

I recently built a new NAS for my network with 4x 18TB drives in a ZFS raidz1 pool. I previously have been using an external USB 12TB harddrive attached to a different machine.

I've been attempting to use rsync to get the 12TB drive copied over to the new pool and things go great for the first 30-45 minutes. At that point, the current copy speed diminishes and 4 current files in progress sit at 100% done. Eventually, I've had to reboot the machine, because the zpool doesn't appear accessible any longer. After reboot, the pool appears fine, no faults, and I can resume rsync for a while.

EDIT: Of note, the rsync process seems to stall and I can't get it to respect SIGINT or Ctrl+C. I can SSH in separately and running zpool status hangs with no output.

While the workaround seems to be partially successful, the point of using rsync is to make it fairly hands-free and it's been a week long process to copy the 3TB that I have now. I don't think my zpool should be disappearing like that! Makes me nervous about the long-term viability. I don't think I'm ready to drop down on Unraid.

rsync is being initiated from the NAS to copy from the old server, am I better off "pushing" than "pulling"? I can't imagine it'd make much difference.

Could my drives be bad? How could I tell? They're attached to a 10 port SATA card, could that be defective? How would I tell?

Thanks for any help! I've dabbled in linux for a long time, but I'm far from proficient, so I don't really know the intricacies of dmesg et al.
