You should be able to set a watch using the Linux Audit system (which home-watcher also uses). Try something like this

sudo auditctl -w /.Trash-1000 -p rwxa -k trash_monitor

You should then be able to search for events in the logs with

sudo ausearch -k trash_monitor

It's not 100% verifiable and nobody wants to get a defemation lawsuit. (And perhaps they don't want to piss of a guy that's "friends" with the president)

Some time ago a politician in my country announced they would start treating the people who protested at highways harsher. She said "people think these people are just protestors, but they're criminals"* and that they were "damaging the rule of law"*.

* Translated

Earlier on Tuesday, the College for Human Rights ruled that the right to demonstrate is "under serious pressure" due to the arrests of activists. They had called for the blockade of the important thoroughfare.

Yesilgöz does not respond to this criticism. She says that the Ministry of Justice and Security will look into it together with the Ministry of the Interior. The ministry is already looking into the right to demonstrate, about which reports have been published *2.

/* 2 They're currently looking into methods to restrict the right to demonstrate.

It's honestly really worrying how people just accept and even approve of these actions. It's not just because people are being inconvenienced, almost everyone I spoke to never noticed it themselves and that's honestly the scary part.

What do you mean?

Lemmy.world is considered the "normie" instance. Even if you manage to find another instance, it won't matter that much anyway since most interactions are from federated users. The only way to avoid leftist views on Lemmy is to avoid politics completely (which isn't viable).

This is completely absurd, why would they want to make the straws last longer?

All instances I've seen of "he's just autistic" on Lemmy were sarcastic and were making fun people actually arguing that was a valid excuse on other platforms.

I recommend going with Backblaze, they're cheap and in my experience very reliable so far. If you're looking for other alternatives, you could get a storage box from Hetzner. It's not S3 compatible but instead supports Samba, FTPS, SFTP, Borg, Restic, RClone, and others. I suggest avoiding Wasabi due to their strange / shady? pricing model where you pay 3 months of storage cost for every deleted file.

For those that are unaware, it's the slogan of The Washington Post, which Bezos owns.

I currently have a 1 TiB NVMe drive that has been hovering at 100 GiB left for the past couple months. I've kept it down by deleting a game every couple weeks, but I would like to play something sometime, and I'm running out of games to delete if I need more space.

That's why I've been thinking about upgrading to a 2 TiB drive, but I just saw an interesting forum thread about LVM cache. The promise of having the storage capacity of an HDD with (usually) the speed of an SSD seems very appealing, but is it actually as good as it seems to be?

And if it is possible, which software should be used? LVM cache seems like a decent option, but I've seen people say it's slow. bcache is also sometimes mentioned, but apparently that one can be unreliable at times.

Beyond that, what method should be used? The Arch Wiki page for bcache mentions several options. Some only seem to cache writes, while some aim to keep the HDD idle as long as possible.

Also, does anyone run a setup like this themselves?
