Armbian works on most, if not all, raspberry pi compatible boards. I meant that support from vendor is often a lot shorter than from raspberry and it can cause problems/bugs with bootloaders and drivers unless vendor is actively working with armbian/kernel development for their chipset.
Orangepi and other “clones” often use rockchip on their boards which isn’t as well supported as Raspberry equivalent so it’s not direct replacement. Also their supported lifespan is often much less than rpi.
It is, but the sad reality is that while you contribute your capacity for good cause it’ll be abused by bad actors as well. Obviously with snowflake node you don’t get to see what’s excactly going trough, but some time ago I had exit node running and I got several calls from my ISP that there’s malicious traffic coming from my IP address. ISP managed it pretty well when I explained what’s going on but eventually they got so many complaints from other peers on the network that they took ‘hard route’ and told that they’ll take my connection down unless I shut down the node. No hard feelings for the ISP, they took all the abuse mails and other annoyance for me and I absolutely understand their decision. But it’s good to at least acknowledge that tor isn’t just to get around oppressive policies.
It’s not monitored for security patches as it gets all the latest stuff anyways pretty quickly, security patches (and new vulnerabilities) included. It’s just not meant to be hardened nor rock solid as it’s excactly what it claims to be: development branch of the whole project. That doesn’t mean it’s insecure by default, it just works differently from stable releases where security patches are provided for years after official release.
I wouldn’t compare Swartz with the AI scrapers. Aaron pulled mostly public domain documents from JSTOR and caused minor issues with the servers which is “a bit” different than pulling everything from the internet to a database over a practically global DDOS-attack. But when companies do it it’s apparently somehow different and Swartz was pretty much publicly lynched and eventually bullied to suicide.
Our previous president son is on the files. There was a news article where he explained that Epstein had contacted him for fundraising or some other legal thing and they met somewhere once for a short while but that’s all. There was also other finns, like one young woman who applied for an assistant job on some of his businesses but didn’t get hired.
So, while there’s a crapload of people who should be convicted and thrown in a jail there’s also a ton of people who don’t have anything to do with pedo-ring or anything else. Good to keep in mind that having someones name on the files alone doesn’t mean too much.
And just to avoid any confusion, if you are mentioned in the files more than Jesus is mentioned on the bible it’s not an accident or one time thing. Allegedly that applies at least to Trump and there should be a small and dark cell somewhere ready.
It’s a government thing. I’m not sure when they’ve started to consider alternatives, but that renewal process (as old systems are on EOL) has most likely been on the table for years.
That’s my use case. But my frigate-box is strictly behind firewall and I access it over wireguard when I’m away.
Run the command and it all dies.
And all of your data on that machine is gone as well.
What errors excactly? Copy and paste what you’re getting from your terminal. Also post output of ‘df -h’.
What kind of errors you’re getting? First what you can try is to run ‘dpkg --configure -a’. If that doesnt help we need more information on what’s going on.
Get a VERY good on-site support deal for your hardware. You also may need to adjust TTL values on your network stack.
It wasn’t for nothing, you got some learning out of the experience and a story to tell. Good luck with the new system, maybe hold upgrading that to testing for a while, there’s plenty to break and fix even without extra quirks from non-stable distribution :)
Have fun and feel free to ask for help again, I and others will be around to share what we’ve learned on our journeys.
You’re not worrying for nothing. Losing wall power will shut down the drives and as usb-cradle is generally slower than “proper” drive bus it’s more likely that some write operation is going on when power is lost and that’ll potentially cause data corruption. Obviously not every power outage will cause issues, but I’d say it’s a higher risk with USB-drives than with drives on a SATA/m.2 bus.
But no matter what your setup is, raid is not a backup. All kinds of things can happen which cause loss of data and you should plan accordingly. If all you have is two drives on usb-cradles I might choose to use one of them as a offline backup disk and one for ‘live’ data so that it’s more likely that at least one of the drives is functional even after power issues or whatever, but that approach has it’s own problems too.
There’s a walkman model which is pretty much just that which runs some flavour of android but I don’t know who they think their customer base is as the pricing is absolutely stupid. Top of the line model has gold plating and a nice 4k price tag. Also it apparently has ‘oxygen free copper’ and other audiophile bullshit, but no FM tuner.
And then there’s a ton of similar products from China but no idea which models (if any) are actually useful.
I had a two (or maybe a bit less) bitcoins on my wallet back in the day. I sold them for ~20€.
Well, the touchscreen part and maybe a bit more, had the same reaction on many directors at Nokia at the time. I don’t know if they feel like an idiot, but at least you’re not alone.
Cameras don’t stop anyone, but I still have few recording my yard. It’s more of a hobby and I’m planning to integrate person detection on those to home automation but for me it’s also a small piece of peace on my mind. Should someone steal my car trailer (or a car) I’d have some footage for the police and insurance. Also a while ago we had a decent storm around and we weren’t at home so it was nice that I could check for possible damages remotely.
But absolute majority of time I don’t even think about them. I don’t have any notifications enabled, I’m not interested about neighbors cat running across our yard or getting interruptions every time someone on the family comes or goes. And while Frigate has some AI things built in, the whole thing runs locally. There’s no way I’d install nest or some other camera which sends/stores data to anywhere which isn’t 100% in my control.
I haven’t tested lvm on arm-based systems, but if it doesn’t automatically locate them you could try pvscan/vgscan/lvscan.
Team expects, may be useful, could be used, prototype, are currently investigating and so on. Cool piece of technolgy, but no even mention when they’d expect that to be commercially available, if it’s even possible to manufacture in commercial scale. Like many other new battery chemistries and technologies, it shows promise and makes a good headline, but at this point that’s pretty much it.
