Lol thanks for explaining

Why is it good?

First thing a malware would do is to replace top/ps and related utilities, to mask itself. Or directly replace kernel calls. You will not notice by just checking running processes

So why would this need docker at all?

Thanks so much for mentioning this, trying it out now

Not at all

One thing that hasn’t been said in this thread is the following: Do you trust your router? Do you have an isp that can probe your router remotely and access it? In those cases, you absolutely need a firewall

Totally the opposite of my experience. Depends on you needs i guess. Storage in particular is pricey

Same, always eorked great for me

For an adult that liked looney tunes a lot when they were a child, what was there? And what is available through torrents? What should I archive?

What the heck how do vanguard funds relate to this?

First of all ignore the trends. Fuck docker, fuck nixos, fuck terraform or whatever tech stack gets shilled constantly.

Find a tech stack that is easy FOR YOU and settle on that. I haven’t changed technologies for 4 years now and feel like everything can fit in my head.

Second of all, look at the other people using commercial services and see how stressed they are. Google banned my account, youtube has ads all the time, the app for service X changed and it’s unusable and so on.

Nothing comes for free in terms of time and mental baggage

Why is it taking so much space in compressed form? I think text compresses very well so you should be able to save tons of space compared to db tables

I started because I wanted to get around censorship in my country. I also wanted to view stuff in the original language and here we dub everything.

Can someone explain to me how this movie stand in the whole godzilla franchise?

Suppose I am a guy who only watched the original godzilla movies from 85

yeah, I would redownload all of those instead of transcoding. They are all available with very good encodes publicly

Are those your own blurays? Then share them before compressing.

Transcoding is hard. There is no way that your transcoding settings are going to be a one size fits all. I am currently encoding the famous iKaos Dragonball release and I did 48 samples before deciding what configuration to use.

You are better off downloading stuff from torrent, especially for newer media. You’ll find a community that put 100x your time collectively on transcoding. That will also save from your tremendous electricity costs.

Also look into vmaf for quality metrics. Consider that switching to uncompressed 1080 might bring you close to your goal with very very low effort.

Btw, can you share the title list?

It is unrealiatic, that in a stable software release there is suddenly, after you tested your backup a hard bug which prevents recovery.

How is unrealistic? Think of this:

• day 1: you backup your files, test the backup and everything is fine
• day 2: you store a new file that triggers a bug in the compression/encryption algorithm of whatever software you use, now backups are corrupted at least for this file Unless you test every backup you do, and consequently can’t backup fast enough, I don’t see how you can predict that future files and situations won’t trigger bugs in a software

Going unmaintained is a non issue, since you can still restore from your backup. It is not like a subscription or proprietary software which is no longer usable when you stop to pay for it or the company owning goes down.

Until they hit a hard bug or don’t support newer transport formats or scenarios. Also the community dries up eventually

As long as you understand that simply syncing files does not protect against accidental or malicious data loss like incremental backups do.

Can you show me a scenario? I don’t understand how incremental backups cover malicious data loss cases
