  • Bernie Sanders urges progressives to vote Democratic in November

  • Why would the centrist leadership do what they are paid not to do? This shift won't happen through convincing but through losses of centrists in primariea and victories of progs in generals.

  • This is true but it's nice to have the whole app, data and database in one place, going together, snapshotted together, "backupable" together. It's slower for sure. That said it can be reasonably fast with a large pool (more disks). With the magic of SSD cache, database reads fly and reads are the majority of the loads in my heads. In the future I would put root on ZFS as well and either do SSD cache or have root on ZFS SSD pool that gets send/recved regularly onto the spinning pool so it's easy to restore when needed.

  • Wrong. Plenty of German large corpos helped Hitler come to power and made good money under him, and are prime brands these days. E.g. Agfa, BASF, Bayer and Sanofi. Our capitalists definitively do not want democracy. Plenty of them have said as much and their interests are aligned with autocracy. Democracy means taxes and regulations and they def don't want either of those.

  • That's what I'm thinking too. They're gonna go as far and as wide as they can go.

  • Kamala Harris contributed plenty towards destroying democracy by refusing to represent a significant part of the American piblic that would typically vote D.

  • A smart decision which the Americans are probably not gonna make would be to nationalize Micron once they become unviable for-profit business, in order to keep the competency and ability to make RAM, which is an essential economic input these days. Instead I think they'll just let the CXMT gang buy them at that point, just like they've let that happen to so many important firms. That's unless democratic socialism has taken enough control of the US political power.

  • Do you think they'll stop expanding after filling the consumer memory market though?

  • This shit is so over. This gang ain't gonna collude on price with Micron. They're in for eating Micron. First its market share, then its IP by buying it for pennies on the dollar.

    Especially pay attention to the CCP's directive to share IP among RAM manufacturers. They appear to be looking at this problem as a supply shortage of an essential component for the rest of the economy, which it is. But that also means they aren't playing for profit.

  • Datahoarders, how many Linux ISOs do you actually have?

  • Nice try FBI.

  • Introverts will do anything but ask for help

    Jump

  • Apart from the socializing time, the time to help the helper doesn't accumulate as time spent on your end because the helper will help again speeding up another task of yours. In the long run the time saved from receiving help and the time spent from helping would balance out. The socializing time is lost and accumulates. With that said, there are tasks that are impossible or take significantly more than double when done alone compared to when done with a helper. That could very well make up for the lost socializing time. Now add specialization where you help in tasks that you're good at and the helper does the same for you and those tasks end up done way faster than without help. And that's why we invented division of labour, which allowed us to turn nature into useful stuff much faster than before. 😄

    I don't ask for help enough. Replaced a toilet yesterday and my back is complaining today.

  • Improve very slow library scans on Jellyfin 10.11 / 12 on spinning media

    Jump

  • Thanks for the pointer. Checked, tried a couple others - they don't know about it. They have some other non-random DNS records. AFAIK they can absolutely find it if they scan for all domains, but it'll take forever if the name is randomly-generated and sufficiently long. Someone has to be determined to spend the resources. This doesn't guard against that but against bots trying to fuck with the service at the port. I could move it to a wildcard though. There's an overlap with another subdomain (they're actually sub-subdomains and the first sub is common) but I could move that.

  • Hm. As far as I know that can only be done if AXFR is enabled (it's not), if the domain has entered some search engine that has remembered it, through SSL cert that's not wildcard, or through brute force lookup. Am I missing something?

  • Thanks for looking into it. As far as I read they moved to an ORM with 10.11 as a prereq to supporting other db engines. I'm guessing the db connection code would be undergoing major changes when they do that so I wouldn't rewrite the current implementation. I'd either follow that work and help them get it right or rework the implementation after they're done. We'll just suffer through the mean time. 😄

  • 64K is generally small recordsize. For media they recommend 1M. My db was sitting on the default 128K recordsize and perforned fine on 10.10. It doesn't matter much for reads because ZFS keeps it in RAM and if it gets evicted it goes into SSD cache (l2arc). But for writes the cache wouldn't help unless I disable sync which risks data loss. I don't think 10.10 did much writes during lib scan so write perf only mattered when something changed.

  • Not sure if this is the problem I was hitting with my Home Videos library type. It's got directories with YouTube videos. I tried re-adding it in 12-rc3, which was released a month after the nightly mentioned in the issue thread. Still couldn't complete. I ended up re-adding the media as Shows library. Works okay with the directory structure I have.

    The write performance was recorded without the problematic library (deleted).

  • That would be reasonable. I did repeated rescans and only counted subsequent rescans. For me the initial scan after upgrade took a bit more but not hours. Subsequent scans took less. E.g. 20min -> 13min for write-optimized filesystem. So that's reasonable, although 10.10 was way faster. Library scans are expected to get faster in 13 according to some Github threads I read.

    When I had the broken Home Videos library I waited 3 days for the initial scan to complete and it did not. Repeated rescans did not seem to complete although I didn't wait 3 days for them. I'm not taking into account those scan times. Something was wrong with this library type on 10.11 and/or my media. Worked fine on 10.10.
