Always use /dev/disk/* (I use by-id) for RAID, as those links will stay constant even if a disk is renamed (for example, from sdb to sdd).
redditor since 2008, hoping kbin/the Fediverse can entirely replace it.

I literally haven’t had ANY of those problems running Windows 10 or 11 FWIW, not have any of my friends or relatives.
I’m not anti-Linux or anything though, have used it for 26 years now, but only briefly on the desktop.
How I felt 10 minutes ago when I fixed a bug just after zipping it for release.
Ubuntu is just getting worse and worse. I was pretty happy running Ubuntu server for years after moving from Gentoo; I jag lost interest in spending time taking care for that server and wanted something easy.
I went to Debian half a year ago and it’s been great. Should’ve done it earlier.
“climate change and other left wing topics”… I know that’s basically how it works in some countries, but it’s insane to consider certain scientific facts left wing, and we really shouldn’t support such statements.
ZFS is really nice. I started experimenting with it when it was being introduced to FreeBSD, around 2007-2008, but only truly started using it last year, for two NASes (on Linux).
It’s complex for a filesystem, but considering all it can do, that’s not surprising.
Helpful yes, but far from enough. It only helps in some scenarios (like accidental deletes, malware), but not in many others (filesystem corruption, multiple disks dying at once due to e.g. lightning, a bad PSU or a fire).
Offsite backup is a must for data you want to keep.
That’s in bytes. A modern NVMe drive can do about 7 GB/s (more than 10 for PCIe 5.0 drives). Even SATA could handle 5 Gbit/s, though barely.
Sorry for the nitpick, but you probably mean GB/s (or GiB/s, but I won’t go there). Gbps is gigabits per second, not gigabytes per second.
Since both are used in different contexts yet they differ by about a factor of 8, not confusing the two is useful.
This again? It’s utter bullcrap I’m afraid.
What’s your source that he is a felon? Can’t find anything about that at all.
The article points out that the kernel version used in a phone is basically frozen when development of the device starts. They’re suggesting that at 2 years of support, the kernel will be EOL about when the phone is released.
z is for gz files only though, there are plenty of others. xf autodetects and works with all of them (with GNU tar att least).
iPhone strange speeds are >1GB/s, or >8 Gbit/s. WiFi is nowhere close in practice, but USB 3.0 is (recent versions are much faster).
History search is built into most shells AND it’s interactive. Try hitting Ctrl+r and stay typing. Ctrl+r again to go to the previous result.
When you find the one you want, either hit enter to execute or use arrows, Ctrl+a/home or Ctrl+e/end to start modifying the command.
Nice! I started using it just this week. I built a computer to serve as NAS with Debian and ZFS.
I’m also considering moving my Ubuntu based server to Debian; it gets too many package updates that I frankly don’t care about, plus even Ubuntu server feels a bit bloated.
I moved from Gentoo to Ubuntu a few years ago precisely to reduce my workload; I just wanted it to work… and now I’m considering Debian for the same reason.
Sure, but setting the .style attribute could really be argued as using CSS, just with a different interface. W3Schools refers to this as “inline CSS”.
CSS is used to create the design, basically the look (colors, layout and so on), but no substance.
JavaScript is used to implement code and logic.
HTML + JavaScript would typically (since you’re supposed to use CSS to create colors and design) look very dull, thus the black-and-white Oppenheimer.
I don’t think I’ve ever made a “clean upgrade” on Linux. I’ve done the opposite though, that is, bring an old install over to a new computer.
