What an interesting design! I wonder what the inspiration was?

There is nothing like the sound of 2 dozen HDDs unexpectedly spinning down.

I could not find a –discover parameter, but I tried –assemble --scan and it couldn’t find a super block.
It feels a bit frustrating to have all the data here but no way to access it, maybe a tool will pop up at some point if I hoard the disk images.
Thanks for the suggestion though.

It recognised the disks in an ASR array, but the type is “unknown” and it fails to assemble with “Undefined RAID type (null)[1] on asr_”. So I don’t think that worked sadly.
EDIT: The RAID card I had supported RAID 5 and dmraid doesn’t, that’s probably why it’s not working.

update: I managed to get it working, look at the edit

Not sure about here but is was a hot take on reddit:
Pointers are not that hard and really useful

There where a lot of “painter hard” memes back r/programmerhumor. Probably a lot of beginner’s over there.

I guess i cheated by already having an understanding of how the computer works before starting C.

RPI: Actually dying

Me: Gitlab time

I was running lemmy on it too until a few days ago. I had an SSD for the database though.
oh and the gitlab instance was the straw that broke the camel’s back for the Pi, I ended up going with forgejo instead.

I like it better than gitlab, gitlab is too cluttered and has loads of features I don’t need. forgejo will be a lot better when they get federation going though

The bot uses smmry.com to make its summaries, it would be easy to make a fork that lowered the amount of sentences in the summary, but it might lose some important details.

EDIT: oops, completely wrong bot, I was looking at another lemmy TL;DR bot on github

EDIT2: should still be quite simple to fork the current one, but I couldn’t find where to reduce the number of sentences

I like to have different naming schemes for different device classes.
Desktop computers: Greek gods
Laptops: Elements of the periodic table
Cloud servers: Norse gods
Home servers: Planets of the solar system
Raspberry Pis: Greek titans

Why would you need more than one?
