Don't

Dr Becky, PBS Space Time and Angela Collier all release on the same days. Giving me one big day filled with quality astro physics. But leaving all other days devoid of good content. It would be nicer if they staggered a little.

Posting here for a lack of !verymildlyinconvenient.

Hi all!

I have a Debian stable server with two hdds in a md RAID which contains an encrypted ext-4 filesystem.

sda          8:0    0   2.7T  0 disk
├─sda1       8:1    0     1G  0 part                    
│ └─md0      9:0    0  1023M  0 raid1 /boot             
├─sda2       8:2    0   2.7T  0 part                    
│ └─md2      9:2    0   2.7T  0 raid1                   
│   └─mdcrypt

I'd like to migrate that over to BTRFS to make use of deduplication and snapshots.

But I have no idea how to set it up since BTRFS has its own RAID-1 configuration. Should I rather use the existing MD array? Or should I take the drives out of the array, add encryption and then add the BTRFS RAID inside that?

Or should I do something else entirely?

I migrated my wife's PC after a forceful Windows 11 update to Linux. I made a backup of her files by doing an rsync of almost the complete C: drive onto an external drive formatted with exFAT. This was a grave mistake.

After the Linux installation we noticed that several files were missing and older files were back. My current guess is that I was somehow copying from an old snapshot instead of the current state.

I rsynced everything except for the Windows folder. Does anyone know if there is any chance of getting our filea back? Amd what actually happened?

Edit: After several weeks I finally found the answer. There are two drives in the laptop. But Linux didn't see the NVME drive because it does not support "RST with Optane". As soon as I switched the SATA mode over to AHCI I could see the system drive with the lost files.

I can't read long texts anymore, so I don't really understand what's going on. My internal bullshit-o-meter tells me that it's being blown out of proportion.

Can someone summarise it?

And what should I do? Make some configuration adjustments? Switch to LibreWolf or another fork?

HandOfBlood playing a demo of the remake at the Gamescom. His commentary is in German and the game is in English.

He's not playing as the nameless hero but as Nyras. The demo is a small prequel set 2 years before the full game. They basically made it to test out the modding of the game. It's supposed to get full mod support.

Feels pretty much like Gothic. Good atmosphere, janky animations and it even crashed twice. Good times.

to see that AIs have as many problems as they do with drawing hands.

Just as I'm about to fight the Soiled Fist the frickin curse that covers everything in grass kicks in. Guess it's time for fire.
