• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Every single time I think of restructuring my homelab storage. What do you use for storage engines and how does it benefit you?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve got Proxmox running on a nvme mirror. Two HDDs are passed to Turnkey Linux mediaserver; they are mirrored with BTRFS and act as storage. I am satisfied with all (prox, turnkey, btrfs) and would recommend.

  I had one BTRFS drive fail, and replacing it with no experience took about an hour.

  I do wish there was better user documentation for WebDAVcgi, the WebDAV frontend in Turnkey linux mediaserver.

  mediaserver comes with Samba, so I use that to connect devices like phone or laptop to the server

  Turnkey’s mediaserver was my replacement for Openmediavault with Filebrowser plugin. Filebrowser creates an internal user to write files for anything uploaded via web interface, so if you mount the folder later via NFS, the permissions don’t match. Openmediavault would stall or crash a lot as a container and especially as a VM, but maybe it runs better on bare metal.

  So I need a nose job…

  And a lip injection, and a cheek lift…

  You can check for tags around you with f-droid app AirGuard. It can make them beep too.

  Time travel to Earth’s past would be cool to study history. But how to not accidentally ruin our timeline?

  I think the real progress is to be made in space. Send a probe to a solar system 50 LY away but back in time to arrive the same day you sent it. It can travel really slow too, because time isn’t a concern.

  If there is a habitable planet, send settlers there at the earliest time in history possible. Settlers can be robots that just build infrastructure and plant stuff for 10k years. Then go yourself.

  Only sometimes. I can’t seem to replicate it today

  Blorp is great. I have learned to use it.

  The only thing is if I use my phone’s back button, it doesn’t respond. Android gets confused and thinks Blorp isn’t responding. So I use the Blorp back button at the top left of the screen.

  Thanks for runing the instances human. Viewing via Blorp app.
