We need to make homebrew computers the norm again.

:blobwizard: You don't need a $1000 camera or an hour of traveling to take a good Aurora photo.
:ablobcatbongo: You need a tripod, patience, and a decent point and shoot that with a manual mode and RAW output.
:ablobcatwave: Set the exposure time to "forever", the ISO to "grainy" and the F-stop to "eyes dilated at optometrist."
:blobcatsanta: This one was taken in the Chicago suburbs with a tripod and a Canon PowerShot S100 at ISO 80, F2.0, and 15 second exposure, then processed in RawTherapee.

@Linux_in_a_Bit Not a bad camera that. I bought a used one for my little sister a couple years back, and I picked up a used S95 for myself as well. They're really impressive for the size, price, and age

Hey fediversians, what are your recommendations for an easy to use peer to peer messenger?

What in the world is wrong with this machine?

Something as simple as syncthing running, an apt upgrade, or even just doing a dd of a gigabyte from /dev/zero to a junk file can cause the system load to scream up to 10 (quad-core system), and it starts freezing.

Do I have a dodgy SSD???

Update 1: I am using full disk encryption (LUKS)

Update 2: gsmartcontrol output https://bin.benjaminhollon.com/fersimebia

Update 3: I'm going to try copying everything over to a spare SSD later.

@RL_Dane Are you using disk encryption or software raid?

I've used both, and I do not recommend either for this and other reasons. Especially not both at once.

Also make sure you've got plenty of free space. Modern file systems absolutely freak the hell out if you don't have plenty of free space.

@RL_Dane I'm not saying it's definitely related to the encryption. On account of I'm a know nothing moron with no right to say anything for sure.

But I've had no end of problems with disk encryption. But then, I'm a know nothing moron, so that is the expected thing to happen with anything I touch.

Ok, as broken as youtube is on a low res screen, it's even more unusable on a high res screen, as the "includes payed promotion" banner that only appears once your cursor is hovering over the video thumbnail, is nearly as big as the video thumbnail, and takes you to a useless help page instead of the video

@falken @frameworkcomputer dunno then, but on my laptop with a 13" 1080P screen, that message takes up half the thumbnail
