I mean, this is semantic. People have been treated as property. Just like land has been treated as property. Is it right? Fuck no. Let’s build a world where this is not true, but right now and historically it is

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez warns of potential impact of 2024 election in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] -4 points 2 days ago

We have very little say in how our government works. Over the course of US history the material decisions have been whisked away to less democratic structures (eg the supreme court, the federal reserve). Even early on the democracy was built for property owners (owners of people and land). People are feeling disenfranchised and the vote for trump is a (petulant) vote to flip the gameboard. Of course voting for trump is one of the worst things you can do if you want you and your community’s lives to improve, but the fundamental motivation is disenfranchisement and anger

I mean, in the US, the archetype of progressive policy success, the New Deal, was only possible because of labor militancy and the threat of systemic collapse. That should give an idea

“Property owners” covers both and is more concise

This mobile app is not associated with the current open source project. Like i think it’s a vestige from before they went open source. They recommend using actual in your mobile browser for now, which works decently well

He was gonna say he fed the fries to a house sparrow and the guy waiting around the corner was going to harass him for feeding an invasive species. I guess the joke is that the author sees humans as the most invasive species (which, as an aside, is a bad take when you think about indigenous peoples of our species)

Yeah, i agree that there are some really tough contradictions there, and the material result definitely looks like accelerationism.

Thanks for reading it!

How to fix my ZFS pool mistakes (lemm.ee)
 

Back when I was even less experienced in self-hosting I setup my media/backup server using a RAIDZ1 array and 3 x 8TB disks. It's been running well for a while and I haven't had any problems and no disk errors.

But today I read a post about 'pool design rules' stating that RAIDZ1 configurations should not have drives over 1TB because the chances of errors occurring during re-silvering are high. I wish I had known this sooner.

What can I do about this? I send ZFS snapshots to 2 single large (18TB) hardrives for cold backups, so I have the capacity to do a migration to a new pool layout. But which layout? The same article I referenced above says to not use RAIDZ2 or RAIDZ3 with any less than 6 drives...I don't want to buy 3 more drives. Do I buy an additional 8TB drive (for a total of 4 x 8TB) and stripe across two sets of mirrors? Does that make any sense?

Thank you!

Something like multi-library support for self-hosted music? Trying to recreate iPod feel (lemm.ee)
 

I've been self-hosting my music in Navidrome for the last 3 or 4 years and in general I've been very satisfied. Before that I was using an old iPod. The key difference I haven't been able to recreate in Navidrome is a feeling of my own curated library where I scroll through and recognize all the artists. When I set up navidrome I ended up integrating a bunch of mp3 libraries (my father's, my own, and a few of my friends). Because many people share the Navidrome server with me, I let them add stuff that they listen to. When I browse the artist in the iOS client play:Sub I end up not recognizing about half the artists. I've found that I forget about a bunch of music because I rely so heavily on the 'search' function and don't scroll through my artist library like I did on the iPod back in the day.

I'm not sure how to address this, and I think it pretty significantly affects my relationship to my music library. I'm not sure if the solution is server-side or client-side, but essentially I want to be able to have all the music accessible in some way, and most the time I want to just browse a selection of artists that I choose. I feel like creating a playlist is not sufficient because I don't know how I would browse by artist within a playlist (at least within the clients I'm familiar with). Has anyone felt this way? Any recs?

Thank you!

Sanity check - is rsyncing to a remote computer that has zfs snapshotting an okay way to back things up? (lemm.ee)
 

I currently have two computers, one that has a big zfs raidz pool that I currently back everything up to. Right now, on my local computer I use rsnapshot to do snapshot backups via rsync to the remote zfs pool. I know I'm wasting a ton of space because I have snapshotting in the rsync backup, and then the zfs pool is snapshotted every day.

Does it make sense to just do a regular rsync into a backup directory on the zfs pool and then just rely on the zfs pool snapshotting for snapshotting?

Maybe eventually I will put the local machine on zfs and then just send the local zfs snapshots over, but that will take some time. Thanks!
