I'm just about to build a NAS with some leftover parts from an old upgrade, some new parts, and the disks out of my current NAS 7900X3D 64GB DDR5 (I'll probably run it at 4800MT/s) 4x 20TB HDD in ZFS Z1 (I have an off-site backup) 6.4TB NVMe (PCIe 4.0 x8) for L2ARC 1.92TB NVMe (PCIe 3.0 x4) for SLOG (maybe, not sure) With the recent changes to L2ARC persistence and block size in TrueNAS, I intend to basically warm my L2ARC for a couple months, and then just basically never hit my disks again. My seeding torrents will probably fit entirely within L2ARC, as will a lot of my media library. In theory I get the benefit of a 52TB array with one disk redundancy, with the speed of NVMe for reads. I know SMB doesn't do sync writes, so my SLOG won't help there, but I have some VMs and containers using NFS shares which I think does? Normally so sync writes.

Its just used for minecraft and plex right now Dell PowerEdge R740 2x Intel Xeon Gold G134 3.2GHz 256GB RAM 7TB HDD

>>1537 Is your HDD noisy? Like, do you shut it off when you are going to sleep?

>>1542 its in another room but the hard drives are actually not that loud. the only thing loud about it is the fans when its starting up

>>1542 Not that anon, but I'm the 7900X3D (soon) NAS, when the R240 is quiet enough (it's way louder than the R220 it replaced ) hearing the 4 drives chugging away from seeding is actually quite comforting, I have it iny bedroom.

>>1532 Nope. Broke my system completely, don't know what to do yet. I'll get home in evening and see further what I can do. Meanwhile I put it to re-merge world manually on by-package basis (`bash while read -r` loop). I do it so that it updates and re-links as many packages as possible. After that I'll try to update world again. If it breaks I'll update all packages manually one by one. If even that doesn't work, I'll post here again. >#gentoo People there are all smart and stuff, but the fact is that just running `emaint sync` breaks the system without any meaningful way to fix it. I heard elsewhere that the only truly working solution is to not update at all.

Removed all Qt6 related entries from /var/db/pkg/{dev-qt,dev-python}. emerge --ask --update --deep --newuse @world still fails, so instead I am trying to do emerge --ask --update --deep --newuse gui-apps/qt6ct This still fails, but step by step I remove offending packages from /var/db/pkg and see what happens Right now I am on 4th iteration...yeey. Good thing I keep ccache of the most retarded packages. Hopefully this is going to be the first step towards unfucking my system. I'll report back tomorrow

>>449 Bro just like install Ubuntu

>>1539 Gentoo is easier to maintain

Fucking qtwebengine not even ccache helps with recompilation probably some USE flag changed though I don't begin to imagine which, since I *didn't* change anything

Currently working on a project that will be a contribution to education. It's a basic 2D engine written in C/C++. I'm the only programmer here, so I have a lot of work to do: GUI, create all the systems, etc. I will post in this thread when I finish it.

Next generation *chan archiving. It's pretty much done, and an instance is hosted at https://ayasequart.org.

Working on learning vulkan but as an off project from that i am making an NES game

>>2 Working on my million dollar gaym

>>1536 waow what kind of gaym is it

>>1295 make a site dedicated to teaching people about torrenting or something. just something bro. make a neocities.

i am making a personal site on neocities as a project to learn html and css, but i do not knopw very much at all and it is far from complete. maybe when it's closer to completion i'd consider adding it to a webring.

I've followed the LC ring threads for yeaaars but never posted any site I made because they're all smart nerds posting blogs about the same tech stuff I don't understand plus thats kind of their theme. if more h3 sites are posted I might join too, since people here are less intimidating but I also buy new domains every year when I think of something new, so maybe I wait

>>1305 just post, nobody else will

idk if unreadable.info will ever come back but I updated my website 2 years later

what do you mean?

I'm not a tech worker. I was too stupid to see a bull market staring me in the face.

I've been using CRTs from 2020 till beginning of this year. If you use it too much, it can hurt your eyes, I've felt this. I usually use my computer for idk 15 hours/day, so this can be a pain in the ass. Now I'm using a LED 27'inch monitor with nice colors and it was the best thing I've done. I love CRTs and it's aesthetic, but I don't think it's suitable for me anymore. Here's one of my old photos using it.

I wish I had a CRT monitor...

I always stop at garage sales to try to find them for cheap but I haven't stumbled upon any yet

I don't even own a flatscreen display (besides the ones built into my PSP and gameboys)

>>1521 Curved monitors are gay hikarin

>free Linux VPS with full admin access https://terminator.aeza.net/en/ alright i don't want to be a dick i don't really think you can do this, other than the numerous "free" cloud tiers that will ask you for your card then turn up a bill for your bandwidth. there are things like tilde.club (can't remember others) but besides always being available on a community/as-is/if-i'm-jiving-with-it basis they are also, uh, all non-root. honestly, if you waltz around lowendbox/lowendtalk for a suitable KVM, reading carefully, and spend A DOLLAR per month for actual service from a small-to-medium provider you could walk away with something pretty nice. alternatively, https://www.nearlyfreespeech.net/services/hosting, or tunnel through cf from your home machine

you can rent a low-tier vps for less then a 1$/month i pay 45$/4years for 1thread/1gbram/1gigabit + 96gb disk space

Damn, I forgot to clarify that it was for setting up a website.

>>1511 You did mention you were making an imageboard.

>>1504 holy scam

>>1478 my fellow retard but a nick name doesn't make non anonymous. i've been wondering about it lately

Yes, I'm on Lemmy with the lemy.lol instance and on Mastodon. Personally I like Lemmy a lot more because it's very hard to find content at least for me on Mastodon. Ive never experienced any of the problems that people discuss on here, I just ignore the stuff that I obviously won't like

>>1480 can you kindly explain me how it works, in terms of, are you able to send direct private messages across fediverse to other users? (e.g. lemmy, mastodon, peertube etc)

>>1481 Google is free

For Lemmy on Mobile, I use the apps Boost and Jeroba but I want to stop using Boost because its closed source. Any recommendations? I think Jeroba is fine I just have 2 accounts and like to experiment with new clients

ricing is gay

>>1267 i'm not sure if that's possible. i could be wrong tho. good try on your first rice hikarin.
