The gist: The internet has become incredibly centralized. Reticulum is a protocol (and supporting hardware and software) that aims at using any physical means of communicating (e.g. wifi, or any other wireless connection) data to build a communication network. Anonymous and encrypted by default.
I think the new one is funnily written. Sorry for being a pleb.
Sounds more like you’re looking for reasons to hate on the article.
They’re hinting at the fact that those 8GB are shared between the CPU and GPU. So it’s not dedicated, which you’d expect if someone said “RAM.”
AI info is never up to date. What where you expecting?
“Finally a hole I can hit!”
Apologies mean “I made a mistake and I learned from it so it won’t repeat.”
I beg to differ. An apology means that you feel bad about harm inflicted upon others. To prove the point: You apologize when you’re late due to circumstances that are outside of your control. Or when you accidentally bump into someone on the bus when the driver slams the break.
Same goes for artificial apple flavor.
If the GDPR were worth a damn, this leak of over 200M data subjects’ data should be more than enough to completely liquidate this company to pay for damages.
60m records in Germany. That 3/4 of the population. The US has 350m inhabitants. 200m leaked records accounts for more than half!
And why is that?
BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE FUCKING STUPID!
- Is your router on?
- Yes.
- What color are the lights?
- There are no lights.
- Please turn the router on.
To be fair, customer service is useless either way. At least I can curse the AI into oblivion.
If you argue like that then neither intelligence nor societies exist. A the fundamental level, every neuron just computes its output from its inputs, quite predictably even. That doesn’t mean emergent behaviours cannot exist.
You sure want to die on this hill.
It’s good you found some pathological examples, but I’m at the end of my rope here.
You can use these examples and the other information you gathered so far and ask specifically how these size discrepancies can be explained and maybe mitigated. I suggest more specialized communities for this such as !linux@lemmy.ml, !linux@programming.dev, !linux@lemmy.world, !linux4noobs@programming.dev, !linux4noobs@lemmy.world, !linuxquestions@lemmy.zip.
These differences really are insane. Maybe someone more knowledgeable can comment on why different tools differ so wildly in the total size they report.
I have never used BTRFS, so I must resort to forwarding googled results like this one.
Could you try compsize ~? If the Perc column is much lower than 100% or the Disk Usage column is much lower than the Uncompressed column, then you have some BTRFS-specific file-size reduction on your hands, which your external exFAT naturally can’t replicate.
du --count-links only counts hard-linked files multiple types. I assumed you had a symlink loop that rsync would have tried to unwrap.
For instance:
$ ls -l
foo -> ./bar
bar -> ./foo
If you tried to rsync that, you’d end up with the directories foo, bar, foo/bar, bar/foo, foo/bar/foo, bar/foo/bar, foo/bar/foo/bar, ad infinitum, in the target directory.
Personally, I have no more tips that those that have already been presented in this comment section. What I would do now to find out what’s going on is the age-old divide-and-conquer debugging technique:
Using rsync or a file manager (yours is Dolphin), only copy a few top-level directories at a time to your external drive. Note the directories you are about to move before each transfer. After each transfer check if the sizes of the directories on your internal drive (roughly) match those on your external drive (They will probably differ a little bit). You can also use your file manager for that.
If all went fine for the first batch, proceed to the next until you find one where the sizes differ significantly. Then delete that offending batch from the external drive. Divide the offending batch into smaller batches (select fewer directories if you tried transferring multiple; or descend into a single directory and copy its subdirectories piecewise like you did before).
In the end you should have a single directory or file which you have identified as problematic. That can then be investigated further.
I’d say you can trust that.
During our last meeting (where inexplicably 25 people where called to talk), my direct manager had to take a shit. He told my colleague who was sitting opposite of me to excuse him, should he be called while on the toilet (the order was random).
Unsurprisingly, just as he had left, it was his turn. Despite being muted and had no video on, everyone heard me laugh because it was so loud my colleague’s mic picked it up.
