For a while I have stored my backups in S3. It's around 3 TB of data.

I'm looking forwards to a secondary service for a second back up.

Don't need fancy or GUI stuff, just the ability to upload from Linux CLI and/or API, with preferably a sync tool (think "aws s3 sync"), and an online tool to watch what's in it.

Any suggestions for places that aren't mega dodgy or do any kind of tracking? EU preferred too.

Alright. I get it, my SSD is total garbage. But how is it possible that the mouse cursor hangs when the SDD is under load?!

An die -Bubble: kennt ihr den Effekt, dass ein über Apple Podcasts geteilter RSS-Feed einzelne Folgen nicht abspielt? Habe mehrere Geräte ausprobiert, der Fehler bleibt gleich.

Der Feed scheint nicht das Problem zu sein, da andere Podcatcher und auch Spotify die Episode ausliefern. Im Apple Podcasts-Backend ist die Folge zu sehen und kann abgespielt werden.

Is there any viable alternative to Rancher out there?
Preferably something that I can let anyone login to, and deploy workloads, but something that is not that stupid to run

Sometimes, my KDE starts without the "taskbar"

When I boot my Arch Linux machine, about 1/10 times the "taskbar" is missing. (Do you still call it a taskbar?)

All I see it desktop icons, the background and the mouse cursor. I'm using NVIDIA proprietary drivers.

Do you guys have any idea what's with that? It's hard to troubleshoot because it only happens sometimes.

Hey ,

@ptlawrence for the solution]

I'm trying to write a script/function to convert qwerty-typed text into so I can play with it without actually converting.

It's working great, but won't pass newlines no matter what I try.

Any ideas?

Ze function:

function colemak-practice() {
while IFS= read -sn1 letter
do
echo -n "$letter" |tr "eErRtTyYuUiIoOpPaAsSdDfFgGhHjJkKlL;:nN" "fFpPgGjJlLuUyY;:aArRsStTdDhHnNeEiIoOkK"
done
}

Alright people, I'm at the point in my skills where I care about doing things right.

PEP8 specifies 4 spaces for indentation. Tabs are better for accessibility and can be set to equal four spaces.

Which do you do and why?

ator, to Autism

I'm finding it hard to deal with some of my feelings, and it feels like I can't relate to people's experiences. I thought I might be on the spectrum, but whenever I read about it it feels like I'm excluded somehow - not quite neurotypical, but not 'autistic enough' to be autistic. I think grounding my thoughts would help reduce the confusion. Would anyone be happy to talk with me about autistic experience? :blobcatheart:​ 💜

Dear Fediverse,

I have a domain, say "example.net" and I want to setup a couple of redirects so that "example.net/awesome" redirects to "foobar.com/something"

I don't want to manage a server or nginx config for this.

I currently use Gandi Web Forwarding but it doesn't support HTTPS.

Any recommendation for something as low maintenance as possible?

Hey ,

I'm thinking of writing an article about browsing Web 1.0 in the modern world (i.e., no JS, sometimes no CSS, sometimes no graphics at all).

Do any of you guys use online services* that work well without JS?

Care to share for my post? :D

Y'all are amazing <3

Question for people who like to geek out about Merkle trees. Anti-crypto comments will be ignored.

If a P2P network is storing genealogical records, it does need universal consensus, right? Alice can't be the daughter of Bob in one part of the network, and daughter of Johan in another part.

Does that mean this is legitimate use case for a BlockChain? Or could you use something like HoloChain?

What online multiplayer games play well over wifi/higher latency?

I'm thinking turn-based games may work okay in this respect, but which of those might you recommend besides Civ? Also what other types of games work better over wifi/higher latency than you might expect?

I know ideally you'd simply wire up your system to not have to fuss with either, but it's not always an option in some circumstances.

Hey ,
Any semitic language scholars out there?

I'm looking to translate Luke 18:13's phrase "God be merciful to me a sinner" into Aramaic, with something approaching period-accurate Aramaic script (whatever Unicode can handle)

I'm thinking about making a plaque for a friend.

I haven't taken a look yet, but if we implemented a hashtag syntax for nonstandard characters to be able to use things like DOIs and ISBNs and etc. like this:

#`hashtag-with:odd;characters`

would that federate?

Ultra weird. I pasted a toot by @arinbasu1 in Translate. This one: https://social.arinbasu.online/objects/8af7f48d-ac82-47e8-9c3b-7e9cd691c4f9

And the auto-detect didn't work, and provided a totally BS Dutch translation more indicative of some dodgy 😱

WTH happened? I might have some malign extension injecting that, but I only installed official and trustworthy ones.

(Also in English translation for the img caption it capitalized one occurence of "How To Make Your Money" that was lower-case in Dutch)

Hey zusammen! Ich hab hier ne URL zu nem Beitrag von „RTL Hessen“, der aber inzwischen leider depubliziert wurde. Wenn man sie benutzt, wird man zur Übersicht der aktuellen Sendungen geleitet:
https://www.tvnow.de/shows/rtl-hessen-1439/2023-06/episode-125-thema-u-a-protest-gegen-abriss-aktivisten-besetzen-druckerei-in-frankfurt-5465557

Gibt’s noch Möglichkeiten, da ran zu kommen (außer den Sender nach ner Kopie fragen)?

Probiert habe ich:
❌ URL direkt an yt-dlp geben
❌ Wayback Machine
❌ bisschen im Quelltext rumfummeln

Freu mich über Vorschläge.
