Not for PostgreSQL, but for MariaDB we run replicas in FreeBSD jails on a server with lots of ZFS space. The jailed Maria instances just stop every hour (so the DB flushes everything to disk), the host snapshots all of their data volumes, a

It's not like VMFS (not a cluster filesystem), for Proxmox+iSCSI you get a large LVM PV that gets sliced up into volumes for your VMs. All of your Proxmox nodes are connected to that same LVM PV and you can live migrate your VMs around

Yeah, kinda have to agree. I like traefik fine but getting mTLS working with it was a serious pain and the docs for doing so were _terrible_, had to keep searching around and piecing together bits from various third party blogs. Coming from

Anecdotal but btrfs is the only filesystem I've lost data with (and it wasn't in a RAID configuration). That combined with the btrfs tools being the most aggressively bad management utilities out there* ensure that I'm stayin

Yeah, if your device is lost or destroyed and you rely on passkeys, you are well and truly f**ed. Your only hope is if you have recovery passwords stored in a password safe or manager. If you already have that safe or manager, than you can

Same boat, the attempt at bot detection prevents the page from working at all for me.

Hit the same issue, but it goes fine if you just clone the repo, cd down into the cmd directory and 'go build -o doggo'.

I'm with you, I need to read up more on where timeseries could benefit, at work we have a PostgreSQL instance with around 27 billion rows in a single partitioned table, partitioned by week. Goes back to January of 2017 and just contai

I got a Latitude 9430 on eBay for $520. This thing is an amazing laptop and I'd put it right there with the Macs I have to work with at dayjob, as far as build quality/feel.

Anyone who has owned a Mini would probably question whether their QA even gets that far.

Maybe it depends on the McDonald's franchisee in your area, I never see free fries in the app but it's always "any size fries for $1.29" (which is still massively cheaper than their normal price).

Works well to just spin up a python:3.11 container via Docker or Podman and do the pipx + reddit-user-to-sqlite installations, then run the utility in there. You can mount some folder as part of starting the container or copy the reddit.db

Great question, and yes, some of the better devices implement a small buffer so may be able to keep a day or even two in memory while they're out of cell coverage. If you activate the SIM you might get a small data dump. GPS doesn&#x27

What about it isn't idempotent for you? Are you falling into the anti-pattern of using shell/command all over the place instead of real modules? We have playbooks installing and managing our databases, web servers, VoIP PBX, DNS

My friends and I all own/owned it legitimately (we had LAN parties nearly every weekend), but over time we'd lose the key. Just entering all 3s has always worked and it accepts it as a valid key.

Have you finally stopped buying Intel? Current Ryzens are a much better CPU anyhow, just dump Intel and be happy with your ECC and everything else.

Here here! The docs don't really make it clear what Airflow is for someone who hasn't already used or been exposed to it. Is it a job scheduler like Rundeck? Something else?

Needing VMs to perform well, comparably to KVM/Xen, would be a blocker for going BSD. Jails are awesome but not containers you're blocked there as well (if you need containers and the tooling around them).
