I am mainly hosting Jellyfin, Nextcloud, and Audiobookself. The files for these services are currently stored on a 2TB HDD and I don't want to lose them in case of a drive failure. I bought two 12TB HDDs because 2TB got tight and I thought I could add redundancy to my system, to prevent data loss due to a drive failure. I thought I would go with a RAID 2 (or another form of RAID?), but everyone on the internet says that RAID is not a backup. I am not sure if I need a backup. I just want to avoid losing my files when the disk fails.
How should I proceed? Should I use RAID2, or rsync the files every, let's say, week? I don't want to have another machine, so I would hook up the rsync target drive to the same machine as the rsync host drive! Rsyncing the files seems to be very cumbersome (also when using a cron job).

Why is the exposure time/ shutter speed for my phone capped at 1/2 (half a second)? I would like to take photos with an exposure time of up to 30 seconds. Even when installing other apps, like GCam or Open Camera, it is not possible to increase the exposure time. I have an Fairphone 4 with Android 13.

In the screenshot you can see that the exposure time (S) is at the maximum value.

Do you have the same "issue" as me, or know how to fix it?

I am living in Germany and I need some Keycaps, which are not expensive. They don't need to be special, they just need to... work.

I want to reset my server soon and I'm toying with the idea of using a different operating system. I am currently using Ubuntu Server LTS. However, I have been toying with the idea of using Fedora Server (I use Fedora on my laptop and made good experiences with it) or even Fedora CoreOS. I also recently installed NixOS on my desktop computer and find the declarativeness pretty cool (but I'm still a complete beginner) and could imagine that it would fit well into a server setup.

I have quite a few services running on my server, such as Nextcloud, Conduit (Matrix), Jellyfin, etc. and all in containers. I would also rather not install programs without containers, because 1. compose is super easy to maintain and set up, 2. it remains very clear with containers (and compose) and 3. I believe that containers are more secure. But since I also want to make the services inside the containers available, I currently have Nginx installed as a reverse proxy (not in the container, but on the system) and always create certificates with certbot so that I can use HTTPS encryption.

In the paragraph above I actually described exactly the use-case of Fedora CoreOS, but I have no experience with the system and how it works. That's why I'm still a bit hesitant at considering the OS at the moment. I can imagine that NixOS with its declarative nature seems well suited, since, as I have heard, you can configure containers as well as Nginx and with Nginx also https certificates declaratively. But I could also use a base system like before (Fedora Server or Ubuntu Server) and simply install podman, nginx and certbot and manage everything that way.

Have you had any experience with Fedora Server, Fedora CoreOS, NixOS or a completely different operating system for servers and what are/were your impressions with this setup? Or do you just want to share your knowledge here? I would be delighted.

When I'm in-game (using steam and proton-ge or just proton) and have Discord open, I sometimes (or better often, just not predictable), have no sound. I can't hear the system-sound anymore (including discord) but my microphone works fine, meaning others in a discord call for example can still hear me. When I have Spotify open and music running the issue appears less often. But when it appears Spotify seems to not being able to play a song. There is a small white popup with roughly the text "current song not playable". The same in YouTube, just that the video is not loading (even when it has buffered). When I close my game and Discord the sound is back and Spotify/YouTube is able to play the current song/video again. Also, when I change the Audio Output from my Headset to my music speakers, then the sound is available again (when changing back to the headphones it is stuck again).

The Headphones mentioned are Sennhaiser GSP 960 and the music speakers are the Logi MX Sound. I am currently running stable NixOS, but the issue also appeared on an Arch Linux install.

Did anyone of you experience the same issue as me and found a fix for that, or know how I can debug the problem or can help debug the issue?

What was your beginner keyboard and which keyboard are you using now? It seems, that a lot of people tend to prefer smaller keyboards with layers. I myself am a bit intimidated by them, and would much prefer a somewhat more traditional number of keys, like the Lili58 or the Sofel has (as for now, I think I will get a Lili58).

Do you "regret" buying your first keyboard and would have preferred to start directly with your current keyboard (e.g. for saving money), or do you think that your beginner keyboard was necessary/important for you, to get into Spit-Ortho keyboards?

I want to get a corne keyboard, but I have a few questions, before I dare to dig deeper into the topic.

1. Can I use the keyboard wired and wireless? Meaning, when I plug in a cable, that it (turns of its wireless connection and) uses the cable connection?
2. Can I also just use one site at a time, meaning that the other side is turned off/unplugged?
3. Which version (corne-classic, corne-cherry or corne-chocolate) should I use when I want to use Gateron Hot-Swap Switches (not low-profile)?
4. Do I have to pay attention when buying keycaps, e.g. to also get special sized caps?
