You should scrub your data regularly with btrfs. That’s just a mean to verify the data is in-tact though; to detect corruption.

You cannot really do anything actively to keep the data in-tact. Failure can and will happen. To keep your data safe, you must plan for failure to happen:

Expect a power surge to fry all your disks at the same time.
Expect your house to burn down or flood.
Expect to run the wrong command and istantly hose your entire array.
Expect your backup server to get ransomware’d.
…

Only if you effectively mitigate these dangers will your data stay safe.

Stable distros can and will backport security fixes. Good ones that is.

Pretty cool!

Have you thought about whether this could also be used for limited write access? A common use-case for abusive image gallery services that you cannot ordinarily fulfil with Immich is shared albums where multiple people that e.g. attended the same event can collect pictures in without complex authentication (just a single shared secret or even just the link to the album).

Ahhhhh whyyyyy, you’ve got all of these standard response codes made for you, why would you blatantly ignore them like that?!

Gaming with VRR is finally viable in this version!

You’d think so but IIRC when Phoronix tested it, Coreboot would always significantly underperform compared to the regular firmware. It wasn’t much but the effect was measurable.

Two posts up from what I posted: https://github.com/bitwarden/clients/issues/11611#issuecomment-2424865225

Hi @brjsp, Thanks for sharing your concerns here. We have been progressing use of our SDK in more use cases for our clients. However, our goal is to make sure that the SDK is used in a way that maintains GPL compatibility.

1. the SDK and the client are two separate programs
2. code for each program is in separate repositories
3. the fact that the two programs communicate using standard protocols does not mean they are one program for purposes of GPLv3

Being able to build the app as you are trying to do here is an issue we plan to resolve and is merely a bug.

I find Lemmy in general tends to lean quite authoritarian autocracy-ish; that feels more like a reflection of the general user base.

I don’t like that in the slightest to be clear but I do think it’s true.

What’s wrong with lemmy.ml? It’s a pretty generalist instance if you ask me. The only issue I have with it is that it doesn’t block obvious troll instances like lemmygrad or the one that’s even worse by default but you can do that yourself these days.

Hell seems to be freezing over at an alarming rate these days; climate change is getting pretty extreme down there too huh?

More likely is the device firmware and you likely can’t fix that.

If you have a reasonably up to date mesa and use a Proton version with a new enough DXVK, DXVK can utilise Graphics Pipeline Libraries to link shaders just like a d3d11 driver on Windows would, eliminating stutter.

I believe shader precomp is used for some video codec edge cases though, so YMMV depending on the game.

No, it wouldn’t make any sort of difference.

And also in any other filesystem’s code or the block layers below the filesystem. As I said, unlikely scenario.

Until the situation now, this was limited to the server, not the clients. You could replace the server with Vaultwarden and build it without enterprise features. Not ideal but fine because the server isn’t the critical part. It never handles your secrets in any way.

What they tried to do now was integrate proprietary code into the clients that everyone uses. This is a lot more critical as it can access the secrets in plain text.

This also wasn’t a “mistake” or “bug”, they openly admitted to doing this with the intention of subverting the client code’s GPL.

There aren’t any “extra access checks” to my knowledge. It’s just the same regular access checks applied to a different set of circumstances.

Flatpaks are containers. They do have a lot of holes though.

As long as the hardware functions as it should (e.g. respects barriers) and there is no software bug in the stack, no.

That’s a highly unlikely scenario though. Make backups.

A driver manager will not make the problems inherent to Nvidia’s crappy proprietary drivers that need workarounds go away.

If you don’t want to tinker a whole lot, buy a GPU from a vendor that hasn’t been actively hostile to its users for decades and is well supported by Linux and the freedesktop such as AMD.

No AMD GPU user has a need for anything resembling a “driver manager”.

Please stop trying to interpret the SMART data report. Even if you’re knowledgeable it can easily mislead you because this is vendor-specific data that follows no standard and is frequently misinterpreted by even the program displaying the data.

If the self-test passed, it’s likely the cable or the controller. Try a different cable.
