  • NP, glad I could help 😉 👍.

  • There was a holup community here, just can't remember the instance.

  • Like scat posts?

  • Fuck 🤦... I just knew my wife was behind that...

  • Well, yeah, but it's not like people shared piracy links there. Mostly software or sites related to piracy, no direct links shared whatsoever.

    Wasn't dbzer0 hosted at his place (db0's home I believe)? He said he had a spare server laying around, just put to good use.

  • Yeah, lasim, that was the name of the app. I did backup, but not entirely, fmhy had some problems exporting my subscriptions, so I had to add a good chunk manually. I just never finished completeing the export/list 😒.

  • Nah, I got it set up on a P4 with a 20GB drive, takes about 2 or 3GB. As time progresses, older snapshots get deleted automatically by Timeshift 😉. So, say you got 4 daily set up, 4 weekly and 2 montly. Only the last 4 daily, 4 weekly and 2 monthly stay, the rest are deleted as new snapshots are created. That's the while point of having this setup, so you can go back in time, but you decide how long.

  • Yeah, it just stopped out of nowhere... like one second here, everything fine, the next, poof gone 🤷.

    Made what after the exploit?

  • Yep, you're doing it right... or at least that's how I do it as well, lol 😂.

    A snapshot is exactly that, a snapshot. It doesn't take forever to create, like with rsync, it litelarly takes a second, even on very old rigs (775 or even older). It's basically a snapshot of what the current drive holds. If a file changes (gets added, removed, whatever), the snapshot grows cuz it needs to hold the older versions of the files (the ones saved at the time of the snapshot).

    This might not be exactly how snapshots work in BTRFS, but this is what I gathered from using it with snapshots enabled. The older the snapshot, the larger the size of the snapshot (takes way more room cuz more changes have occured).

    Also, it's wise to set up daily, weekly and monthly snapshots. I have it set up to hold 5 or 6 (can't really remember now) daily snapshots, 4 weekly and 2 montly. So basically, I can go back in time for a max of 2 months. I was thinking or raising the montly snapshots to 3 or 4, but I'm still not sure. Still, I wouldn't go lower than 2.

  • It's more or less a standard that describes how UNIX compatible OSes are supposed to work. That includes the APIs/ABIs as well.

    At least that is how I understand it.

  • The scientific consensus is that children start forming memories after the age of 3.

    That being said, some toddlers might form memories earlier or later, depends on the child and brain development in general. I suppose girls are more likely to form memories earlier cuz they develop qucker, but this is just a theory I have, I haven't actually taken any scientific steps to proving or disproving it.

  • The main reason why kids write like neanderthals nowadays.

  • What? They measure in chains and stones 🤨 😂. I actually didn't know that 🤣🤣🤣. Regarding oz, I thought it was a liquid (volume) measurement unit... cuz I've seen it on milk containers... oh well, guess I was wrong 😂.

    EDIT: Oh wait, no, it's for both weight and volume 🤣🤣🤣.

    EDIT 2: Nope, there is a volume and a weight oz 🤣, this thing just keeps getting better and better 🤣.

  • Then they also use 1000ths of an inch. Because fuck it, let's just throw in a single base 10 unit.

    Well, to be completely honest, you could say the same about miliseconds... I mean, they are the only ones that do base 10 regarding time measurement 😂.

    Ain't no one gonna take you seriously using your off-brand clown units.

    🤣🤣🤣 gave me a good chuckle 🤣🤣🤣

  • Computation theory, but that's not math as in regular math. It's just a fancy way of expressing how things inside a computer work, so we can actually make better versions of it. You just have to express it somehow in math terms.

    It's like saying engineers use math all the time. No, they don't. We use simple aproximations of what is actually happening to dumb down the problem, cuz, it does the job nicely and no one will notice the difference between what we used, a simple aproximation, and the real thing, a full blown advanced calculus model of the thing we're working on.

  • So, torn frenulum, about 2 or 3?
