I’m thinking about just doing something outside kubernetes that just copies the data from the directory that NFS provides to another storage.

This is what I’m doing for the most part. A TrueNAS server provides the NFS shares and periodically backs them up with restic.

Some apps don’t like NFS very much, especially those that require SQLite. If you’re running Jellyfin over NFS you probably know what I mean. For those apps I use Ceph instead, which is highly available and a lot faster but also more complicated. Those PVCs I backup from within kubernetes to S3 storage with velero.

Uhhh, git add -p?

I found this: https://news.itsfoss.com/organic-maps-fork-comaps/

It doesn’t look like anything to me.

This does not actually work, right? Right?

Never thought I’d agree with Goldman Sachs.

Musk wrote that X “has no choice but to file suit against the perpetrators and collaborators” behind an advertiser boycott on his platform.

So he’s going to sue himself then?

If somebody is going to try to blackmail me with advertising, blackmail me with money, go fuck yourself. Go fuck yourself. Is that clear? I hope it is.

I guess it was pretty clear. What a clown.

Funny to seem him arguing against HibernateDelaySec because of possible data loss, yet if systemd-tmpfiles purges your fucking home directory it’s “documented behaviour”. The superiority complex of some people…

Oh hey, it’s me!

I use Wasabi S3, but only for my most critical data. For full backups including large media I setup a offsite NAS.

Regarding tooling I’m really happy with Restic (coming from Borg).

I’m currently having a good experience with MikroTik. I think their products provide a good combination of features and pricing. There are a “CRS317-1G-16S+” and a “CSS326-24G-2S+RM” in my rack and I have my eyes on the “CSS610-8P-2S+IN” as a efficient little POE switch.

I haven’t used Ubiquity, so I can’t compare these two brands.

For APs I’m currently using TP Link Omada with a selfhosted Omada Controller and for Routing, DNS, Firewall and stuff I use OPNsense.

“Well hello friends :^)”

If you try to spin up multiple services but get stuck on creating a directory, you’re moving too fast. I think you’ll need to start a bit slower and more structured.

Learn how to do basic tasks in the terminal and a bit about how linux works in general. There is a learning curve, but it will be fun! Then move on to docker and get one service up and running. Go on from there with everything you learned along the way and solve the other problems you’ll encounter - one at a time.

Do you want to build one yourself or are you mainly interested in off-the-shelf solutions? What’s your budget? Do you run your services as containers? Do you need hardware acceleration for streaming with Jellyfin/Plex?

I would like to already have some redundancy, can I use the hard drives as they are or will I have to do something to them besides adding other hard drives?

Why do you want redundancy? To keep your data available or to keep your data safe?

One of us! One of us! One of us!

I usually check my emails while on my autopilot commute to work

Also, with a 90-minute commute each way, in 2023, he apparently started sleeping in his car, showering at the factory and microwaving his dinners on days that he was working.

This guy sounds like a fucking idiot.

No way. Sitting around for 4.5 billion years doing nothing while nothing happens for most of the time? I’d go insane after a few months with billions of years still to go. The “with all your senses” part also sucks for the millions of years when earth was a ball of lava with a steady rain of asteroids and no atmosphere.

Kurzgesagt made a video about the entire history of earth, each second representing 1.5 million years. I’d suggest watching this to get a sense about the absolutely massive amount of time. Our monkey brains are not even slightly made to observe all of this.

Also funny that you mention money, as if someone who just witnessed the entire history of earth would care about a measly million dollars.

Does it have to be by monitoring emails or do you have control over the backup script? I’m using Uptime Kuma to monitor my backups via push monitors. My backup scripts call a webhook to indicate success or failure. If the webhook isn’t called for X hours, the backup is also marked as failed. Works really well.

A great investment! Just a few nights ago my power died three times for a few seconds while my NAS was in a degraded state and resilvering. My UPS saved my ass.

Nice rack btw!
