(Quote) Debian/ubuntu gui installer needs a lot more work... I mostly use ubuntu server gui installer but I dont remember seeing the mdadm raid option... I guess we can always live boot the OS and setup mdadm and then reboot to start the installatio…

(Quote) What if I have 1 TB of ram and 1 GB of data? What happens to me then? On a side note, can anyone mail me 8 sticks of 128GB sticks of DDR4 ECC RAM? :lol:

(Quote) What is a "Hurricane Electric DNS"? How do you define stable? What kind of API are you looking for? Have you tried searching on google/chatgpt/local-pub? Finally, who are you?

(Quote) Why do i have 10 old HDDs for playing around with but all are of different capacities?!? Oh well, at least according to the internet, it'll still let me create a RAID, just that i'll take the size of the smallest device. Oh well, w…

(Quote) Raid 1 = 2 disks, Raid 10 = 4 disks, 2 on raid 0, then the pair on raid 1. Sounds the same to me...

(Quote) That's great to know that rebuilding doesn't take forever anymore. May I check on the size of the RAID disks you have? (Quote) You guys clearly have better experience with RAID that I did back in the day. Then again, I was running…

(Quote) Oh yes, I am someone who keeps 1 backup on a different disk, 1 backup on a backup server in different country and finally 1 backup made manually on a offline portable disk. Losing your data is the worst... I am also making a disk image back…

(Quote) Ah, sorry for phrasing it incorrectly. What I meant by backup is "backing up the entire os image" instead of just my project/data.

It's still better then getting into a lawsuite for some comment you made! As for the censorship, it doesn't make sense for platforms to direct traffic away from their own to another private platform. The longer a user stays on the platfor…

Some of those bounced emails could be SPAM as well, as the bounced emails gets to skip the spam folder and gets delivered to your inbox... I was receiving them as well since I setup my own mail servers. Tweaking the spamassassin settings helped to f…

What's the use of this thread? We all know that only after the server has been decommissioned, people will start to ask about why their sites are down and looking for backups... :expressionless:

(Quote) I think "youtube" is just a keyword for spam/hack or other illegal activies RDP is generally used for.

If you are using a browser made by a tech giant who started business with free search engine and is currently the biggest ad-pusher, I think your expections need to be adjusted. Watch their ads or switch browser.

(Quote) Since you just got a server, get self hosted bitwarden or vaultwarden. You can easily deploy it via docker. It has android/ios app as well as firefox/chorme app.

(Quote) I was thinking the same thing when I saw the thread. Moreover, I wouldn't run KVM on such low powered servers. I might have thought about running LXC containers or docker containers, but definitely not KVM...

(Quote) LLM made you a better developer same as programming languages and IDEs made assembly coders better. It may not be efficient or safe, but it does make life easier. But when people start saying "programmers will lose their job cause of LL…
