Thank you. Honestly that had not really crossed my mind. I'm on the spectrum so I take people literally sometimes. That seems like a very real possibility.

Thank you! I'll try this out. I've been mostly using it while playing around with new things rather than to expand scaffolding on existing stuff.

However what I find frustrating is that it so confidently gives you garbage sometimes. I was trying to configure some stuff in docker that needed a very extensive yaml config. It confidently gave me flags and keys to accomplish what I wanted that looked logical and fit in with rest of the style but simply did not exist.

Thank you! That's been my experience as well. It just gives you insidious junk that you have to be vigilant to catch. That is so much more stressful for me than having to deal with repetitive stuff.

I can't fathom how people are claiming it generated whole projects for them.

I've found it okay to get a general feel for stuff but I've been given insidiously bad code. Functions and data structures that look similar enough to real stuff but are deeply wrong or non+existent.

I was hoping that testdisk would show you something funky going on with the partition table based on the parted error. No luck I guess.

My next two ideas are,

  1. As far as I know wipefs just tries to wipe what blkid sees and it might have screwed up something. What if we just dd the whole drive with zeros and let your enclosure take it from there?
  2. What does smartctl say? Might be worth it to run the long and short tests to make sure that the drives themselves are okay.

Total shot in the dark but what does testdisk say?

Keepa which gives a chart on every Amazon page or camelcamelcamel

That's good old Canada.

It's making fun of the popularity of pumkin spice stuff in certain demographics.

That's your take reading a post talking explicitly about how a person won't be outraged about something without actually taking into consideration how the people who the issues is about feel or act?

Maybe you should stop for a moment, think over what you've said and read, and consider that many of these discrimated groups can actually think for ourselves and doesn't need to be told what to be outraged over?

I mean if you're going fast enough with a pointy train, you could chop up people pretty easy. You just need to make sure that each person is a tire width apart to make sure the wheels don't lose traction. Assuming a person is roughly half a metre across and a tire is 75cm in diameter, we get 1.25m per person, so a track of 1250km for a million people. Not very long at all.

Let's also start removing phrases with white, yellow and brown as those are used to refer to people's skin colour as well.

The only reason I would even contemplate not using blacklist or white washing is if an actual person of that skin colour says that it is not okay for them, or there's an actual consensus among people of that community that it isn't acceptable.

I can tell you as a person with brown skin, with brownie or whatever used as a derogatory name, almost everyone I know isn't even concerned with terms like brown out or brown note.

Online outrages or articles aren't an accurate depiction of reality.

Even more dangerously, shit like this drives outrage and diverts attention from actual, real issues faced by people of different races. Like not having stuff to eat or indoor plumbing or mental health infrastructure or access to health care.

 

With Netflix and other streaming platforms increasing price, I finally decided to get a seedbox for my family members' needs with Plex/jellyfin.

My budget is 10-15 USD per month. I'm currently on the 11$ hostingby.design plan with 4TB storage and 9TB traffic, 10gbit connection. I've been mostly happy but,

  • Their app selection feels small though I've found most of the mainstream stuff.
  • I'm missing things like cross-seed, jellystat, jellyfin-vue, transmission and audiobookshelf.
  • Not happy with how apps installed by the GitHub scripts are not available on HTTPS.
  • Can't disable ssh password login for public key, which is making me really uncomfortable.
  • Their wiki seems quite sparse.

The other options I'm thinking of are:

  • 13$ HDD plan at seedhost.eu - 4TB/9TB but only 1gbps, downgrade in specs but seems to have more apps.
  • 14$ plan at ultra.cc with 3TB/8TB but 20gps (which feels like an overkill honestly). Also a downgrade but their wiki/app support looks top notch.

I really wish there was a way I could manage docker containers on my own on a similar shared setup without paying for a dedicated vps but haven't found something like that so far.

Any advice regarding the other providers, experience or otherwise would be greatly appreciated :)
