I'm using Firefox with uBlock Origin on both android and windows. I'm finding more and more sites that are very slow to load, or won't load at all. Yet when I open them in Chrome they work fine. I'm assuming the sites are just failing because of the privacy protection features of ff+ubo, and I'm happy enough to just avoid these shitty sites in general. But - I'm just checking to see - is this expected behaviour, might I have configuration issues?
Looking for thoughts/opinions
I have a 5 disc raidz1 array. The volumes are accumulating CKSUM errors - fairly evenly distributed over the discs. I've been lazy and let this progress to the point where there are permanent errors in files.
# zpool status -v
pool: tank
state: ONLINE
status: One or more devices has experienced an error resulting in data
corruption. Applications may be affected.
action: Restore the file in question if possible. Otherwise restore the
entire pool from backup.

errors: Permanent errors have been detected in the following files:

I've done some research and believe (hope) that the cause of these errors is the "domestic" onboard SATA controllers I'm using and I have ordered a LSI SAS3008 9300-8i HBA as an upgrade.
I know I can fix the permanent error by deleting and restoring it and then running a scrub. But, I'm torn - should I scrub now and risk stressing it more on the crappy SATA controllers, or wait until I get the new HBA (in a few weeks - free cheap, slow, shipping)?
I'm not vegan, but I'm trying to reduce my meat consumption. Unfortunately I really like snacking on pepperoni sticks - I like to tough, chewy texture and the spicyness. When I search for vegan pepperoni substitutes I can only find things intended for making pizza etc. Any suggestions for vegan snacks similar to pepperoni sticks?
I'm a retired Unix sysadmin. Over the years I've built things in COBOL, FORTAN, C, perl, rexx, PHP, visual basic, various Unix shells and maybe others. Nothing has been a real "application" - mostly just utilities to help me get things done.
Now that I'm retired, and it's cold outside, I'm curious to try some more coding - and I have an idea.
The music communities here seem to post links to YouTube. I generally use Lemmy on my phone but don't use YouTube, or listen to music, on my phone if I can help it. I'd like to scrape a music community here and add the songs posted to a playlist in my musicbrainz account.
Does that sound like a reasonable learner project? Any suggestions for language and libraries appreciated. My preferred IDE is vim on bash and I have a home server running Linux where this could run as a daemon, or be scheduled.
I'm retired spend most of my time in my workshop or doing maintenance on outbuildings on our rural property. I really like Dickies Duck Logger pants, but they seem to wear out quickly. I have three pairs that get worn almost constantly in rotation. The oldest pair is now just over two years old and is worn out - I've repaired the seam in the crotch once, but now the fabric either side of it is thread bare. My phone has worn trough the bottom of the right front pocket.
Are there similar pants that will last longer, or am I expecting too much?
I'm in Canada.
I'm trying out Nextcloud to use as on my home server. It looks great, but seems way overkill for just two users that really only want the file sync. capability.
As I'm reading I'm seeing references to WebDAV and it seems that the Nextcloud file sync. server might be "just" a WebDAV server? If it is, might it be possible to point the Nextcloud sync. client (on Windows and Android) at an appropriately configured Apache or nginx server?
The reason I'm asking here, rather than just trying for myself, is that I have no experience with WebDAV and have no idea what an appropriately configured server might mean in this situation. I'm happy to go do the required learning to make it work - just looking for someone to tell me it's not possible before I put too much effort into it.
I'm a retired Unix admin. It was my job from the early '90s until the mid '10s. I've kept somewhat current ever since by running various machines at home. So far I've managed to avoid using Docker at home even though I have a decent understanding of how it works - I stopped being a sysadmin in the mid '10s, I still worked for a technology company and did plenty of "interesting" reading and training.
It seems that more and more stuff that I want to run at home is being delivered as Docker-first and I have to really go out of my way to find a non-Docker install.
I'm thinking it's no longer a fad and I should invest some time getting comfortable with it?
I know this is a tiny community and my chances of generating significant discussion are small, but we have to start somewhere.
I like beer. I am lucky enough to have a lifestyle where at the end of most days I get a chance to sit with a beer and listen to some music. I like to try different beers and most times I go shopping I get a mixed 6 pack. If I find something I like I might get a few more of them next week etc.
Last weekend I was buying beer at an unfamiliar location, it was crowded and I just wanted out so I grabbed a 12 pack of Alexander Keith's IPA (I'm in Nova Scotia). The main reason I went for the 12 pack of mass produced was cost - buying individual cans of craft beer I'm paying $4-$6 per can - it adds up.
Now we finally get to to reason for my post - I'm really not enjoying the Keith's IPA and I don't have the language to describe why. I can't say any more than it tastes watery and reminds of other cheap mass produced beers.
I've been to tasting sessions where the server describes the tastes of the various beers on a flight etc., but the information doesn't get retained. Maybe I'm not supposed to share my tasting experience with anyone? Any suggestions for reading, or other experiences, that might help me improve my beer language?
