Sanity check - is rsyncing to a remote computer that has zfs snapshotting an okay way to back things up?

I currently have two computers, one that has a big zfs raidz pool that I currently back everything up to. Right now, on my local computer I use rsnapshot to do snapshot backups via rsync to the remote zfs pool. I know I'm wasting a ton of space because I have snapshotting in the rsync backup, and then the zfs pool is snapshotted...

ryannathans ,

You don't sync the deletion of snapshots, you use expiry on the remote

ryannathans ,

Then you lose RCS?

Long overdue replacement to sms but unfortunately everyone has pretty much given up being a provider except Google and soon to be Apple

ryannathans ,

No open source implementation of our phone radio firmwares either but yet here we are

ryannathans ,

End to end encryption if both parties are using google's implementation, delivered/read indicators, far better data limits for media, works without phone signal over data, message limits increased, free and international, fallback to sms if recipient doesn't support it

ryannathans ,

This argument is dumb, open up the specs, APIs, etc and allow integration with their products. There's no reason only Apple should be able to write software for these products. The specification makes the product appear seamless, there's no reason it couldn't remain so if others developed or manufactured for the platform.

ryannathans ,

Sure, but so is your memory, you could study the originals and re-draw them a similar way.

ryannathans ,

That's correct. The structure of information isn't anywhere remotely similar to a file or database. Information pixel by pixel isn't stored, it more loosely remembers correlations and similarities and facts about the content as opposed to storing and copying it

ryannathans ,

Yeah, much more similar to the brain than a database or file anyway

Brute force attacks on a huge number of accounts on an online site?

Now talk about the bacteria in a vagina and how we shouldn't do any oral sex. Or how much bacteria is in a mouth.

AMD removes Taiwan branding from CPUs, says change wasn't made to appease China | The 'Made in Malaysia' markings will remain, though. (www.tomshardware.com)

AMD removes Taiwan branding from CPUs, says change wasn't made to appease China | The 'Made in Malaysia' markings will remain, though.::AMD will no longer mark its chips as made in Taiwan, a change that many theorize was made at the behest of China.

ryannathans ,

To be fair it makes it more consistent with their other chips now

ryannathans ,

I RDP to a windows machine to work, from Pop_OS!. It's nice because all the little stuff like web browsing can be done in my linux environment

ryannathans ,

Aaaand there goes linux support

ryannathans ,

Riot games official statement was that they were okay with linux players and actively went out of their way to make sure they didn't get banned unjustly. They didn't support linux as a software platform, which is why wine was required, but they did support linux players.

ryannathans ,

Why are you explaining this to a random user from the instance on a random thread?

ryannathans ,

Ipv6 is the replacement for ipv4. There now exist networks without ipv4

ryannathans ,

Not only that, but ipv6 makes networking easier and less complicated. No longer, needing port forwarding or NAT, amongst other improvements

ryannathans ,

Slaac does everything for you. You get dynamic public addresses that change (you can disable if you please). Nothing to deal with, just open a firewall port if you want to receive traffic

ryannathans ,

NAT is not security. We aren't talking about replacing friewalls.

ryannathans ,

Nothing stops you doing that with ipv6. NAT is complicated and unnecessary.

ryannathans ,

Heck you could set up a ULA or just use a range from your assigned prefix

ryannathans ,

It's a little bit unfamiliar, not the end of the world. It's not complicated and not as nuanced as ipv4 networking. No dhcp necessary anymore on your local network, how good is that? No more trying to hardcode MTU, no strict/open/hairpin/fullcone/etc NAT issues because no NAT, no port forwarding, no fear of IP collisions, less overhead, freedom of many public addresses per interface - host each app on its own public IP address if you desire. Ipv4 over ipv6 is part of the spec so you would never lose ipv4 connectivity. I could go on

ryannathans ,

You don't need to have long addresses, you should be using hostnames and domains anyway. Ipv6 addresses are often simpler than ipv4 ones. E.g. prefix::1 for your router. Prefix::2 for the next device, and so on to Prefix::FFFF for the first 65k machines if you wish to set it up that way. Ipv4 exclusively on your lan ruins my day because I have to maintain servers and software to support users that only use ipv4 and flat out refuse ipv6 connectivity - it's expensive and takes a lot of effort to maintain dual stack support.

ryannathans ,

Buy your own domain and point it to an email provider. You'll essentiolly never lose your address

ryannathans ,

Then enjoy not having your games work until you get the required updates years later

And protondb.com

Triggering home automation too. Like ventilating the laundry when it's washing/drying and for half an hour after.

ryannathans ,

Sounds like a south park episode

ryannathans ,

You could almost just script the launch of the flatpak at boot. It'll be rough around the edges but probably fine depending on your peripherals

ryannathans ,

No HEVC support IME, needs flatpak

ryannathans ,

HEVC hardware decoding doesn't seem to be supported in normal browsers. It works in the flatpak though

ryannathans ,

There are no browsers on android tv, probably for this reason

I'd argue a cnc mill makes a hell of a better gun than a 3d printer

Goodbye Youtube and thanks for all the fish (infosec.pub)

Youtube let the other shoe drop in their end-stage enshittification this week. Last month, they required you to turn on Youtube History to view the feed of youtube videos recommendations. That seems reasonable, so I did it. But I delete my history every 1 week instead of every 3 months. So they don't get much from my choices. It...
