I am afraid to get home tomorrow from this work trip... It's already sitting in the library, waiting ominously

If you exit KDE is the passwd shell of the root user actually changed to /usr/bin/bash ?
Or is it just $kde_terminal_emulator running bash directly instead of respecting the shell selection (and possibly not opening a login shell) ?

(Jerboa does not seem handle bad data signal too well, ignore the duplicates)

Numbers from my instance, running for about a 1 year and with average ~2 MAU. According to some quick db queries there is currently 580 actively subscribed communities (it was probably a lot less before I used the subscribe bot to populate the All tab).

SELECT pg_size_pretty( pg_database_size('lemmy') ): 17 GB

Backblaze B2 (S3) reports average 22.5 GB stored. With everything capped to max 1 USD, I pay cents - no idea how backblaze does it but it's really super cheap, except for some specific transactions done on the bucket afaik, which pictrs does not seem to do.

According to my zabbix monitoring, two months ago (I don't keep longer stats) the DB had only about 14G of data, so with this much communities I am getting about 1.5G per month (it's probably a bit more as I was recently prunning stuff from some dead instances).

Prometheus says whole lemmy service (I use traefik) is getting within about 5 req/s (1m average) though if I go lower it does spike a lot, up to 12 requests within a second then nothing for few.

Attach it to the VM

Is this possible only with the extra, bought storage boxes ? Or is this possible even with the free 100G backup boxes offered with each dedicated machine ? (Or is this just nfs mount?)

We have a dedicated machine in a project from Hetzner with big raided hard disks but the latency is starting creep up on us, moving some of the data off to the faster ssd/san boxes would be rather helpful.

Edit: I've reread your post, you are trying to run non-steam games through steam & proton right?

Did you move/symlink compdata out of the NTFS disk?

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Steam/Troubleshooting#Steam_Library_in_NTFS_partition

https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/wiki/Using-a-NTFS-disk-with-Linux-and-Windows#preventing-ntfs-read-errors

I use ntfs3 (not ntfs-3g driver) with uid=1000,gid=1000,umask=000,rw,user,exec,nofail,nocase,windows_names flags and after moving compada out (see the github link) it kind of just works.

Also what is your HW? If you have a laptop with extra dedicated gpu or have PC with cpu with integrated graphics and extra GPU card the games might be trying to run on the wrong GPU.

When is an int not 32bits nowadays

C standard does not actually define the exact sizes of long/int and so on, it's just what is now most popular (it does have some limitations and requirements on these types though)

Graphical applications should definitely do this, it's rather easy to hit delete accidentally but in CLI? I wanna see a cat type rm and some valid parameters, so if the user typed the whole command out it should probably do just the one exact (destructive) thing.

There is also 6 hour long Down The Rabbit Hole of Eve Online (yt vid)

I've remembered this exists and there seems to be some very recent activity in the repo so if you didn't know what was possible with TUI graphics now you know! (recommended watching with sound :)

Official site: https://notcurses.com/
Repo: https://github.com/dankamongmen/notcurses

PS: dank (the guy behind it) is definitely one of a kind, just read the releases haha

PPS: here is a doom running through notcurses in the terminal: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_w5rh3c76g

 

My PCs encountered a vampire. The barbarian successfully trips the vampire and then grabs her.

Que the vampires turn and I am thinking about using the vampires special vapor form, Turn To Mist to get rid of the conditions - there is nothing preventing the vampire using it, it's not even manipulate.
But some of my well-versed-in-rules players seemed to really dislike it, mainly the "free" getting up (which I countered with the polymorph trait, you are getting magically reformed).

In my book it still costs 2 actions (physical to gas then gas to physical) same as removing the grabbed and then Standing up would, it does bypass rolling the fortitude check and any reactive strikes though.

For me, the most interesting point was the short mention of open sourcing Factorio (around 2:40). Kovarex seems to be very much open to the idea, he mentions that (as an approximation) maybe two years after the DLC after things calm down ...

(Hope this is not much of a titlegore)

Small disclaimer this is from the txt log which is not exactly complete, there are few pixels missing here and there.

One second of the video is about 30 minutes of drawing (one frame contains 1 minute of drawing, 30 frames per second)

Also a little bit of bragging - couldn't resist the challenge and got this all glued together in Python! Which is obviously a valid tool for this considering the rich data processing ecosystem.
Well maybe except the video generation part... definitely except the video generation - Pyav - bindings for ffmpeg, are really badly documented, luckily they have at least good enough examples.

The short story of how:

  • little bit of python script to convert the txt log into csv
  • from csv to pandas, there I made a few cleaning passes to get the "format" just right (mainly dealing with the mod_fill action)
  • pyav, ffmpeg and the world of video - oh boy:
    • for each one minute of drawing data
    • replay them over the canvas (numpy RGB array)
    • embed/copy the canvas into the video frame (another ndarray)
    • (add the timestamp above the canvas - cv2)
    • invoke pyav magic to mux/append it into the video
    • hope that your numpy array slices, splices, "broadcasts", pyav codec options and stream configurations are correct. Otherwise, watch as you end up with 1GB+ of mp4 file - 3 hours to watch whole (1s/30fps) with really bad resolution or inverted/wrong colors:)

If anyone wants to tweak this or has ideas how to make this better just hit me up. Can also put the code somewhere if wanted.

What a wild ride ha!

So, finished RoW, I did not read the halfs (yet?) Edgedencer & Dawnshard - instead I cheated a bit and looked up the summary for these (Dawnshard mainly) as I was too hungry for more "spice" of the SA story so I wanted to continue with next SA book straight away. I did read all of the current Mistborn series we have before SA though about a year or something ago

So I do have some notion about the...shards, investiture and stuff but... I am still confused how the Cosmere magic works in general - I know that magic (Investiture) is different for each planet/system of the Cosmere and guessing it has something to do with the specific shards of that system... ?
⠀⠀

Well, if anyone wants to chime in with pointers I would be very thankful!
Meanwhile I will be scouring the wiki and WoBs to get a better picture.

 

The server does not even respond to pings but I can see some comments/posts from the instance made few days ago.
