I can confirm that moving the disks to a very similar device will work.
We recovered “enough” data from what disks remained of a Dell server that was dropped (PSU side down) from a crane. The server was destroyed, most of the disks had moved further inside the disk caddy which protected them a little more.
It was fun to struggle with that one for ~1 week
And the noise from the drives…
I have rooftop solar, but only for the house because I can’t reach my car to charge it in the street.
The car sits outside for days (I work from home), so in my case this would be great.
This is the 1st I’ve seen of this car, so haven’t read any other details, but I’d be surprised if external charging wasn’t possible.
Am I the only one questioning the spelling of “tyre“?
And apparently monkey is only the 6th password attempt to try:

I don’t have any evidence to backup my statement, but for my usecase (Linux booting troubleshooting toolkit) Kingston sticks last a fair while (~10 years), but Sandisk fail sooner (<5years?)
The main thing I’ve noticed for all brands: there’s no warning before failure. They’re like nicad batteries… all good, then one day - completely dead. So never keep any data on them that you can’t lose.
Good point about the default video source. I had to use “hotel mode” on 1 TV to get that to work… I’ll check what this one does
thanks
Wha?! I didn’t know this was happening… Damn, that was my solution to multiple applications
I think they should consider the word “wages” instead.
Let’s be honest, this is compensation for skilled labour.
Just to add - if your phone drops off the wifi (mine does and I’m still trying to find out why… maybe due to power saving), then maybe, you could also look at bluetooth tracking (ie something like ESPresence) for HA to know you’re still at home.
(Bluetooth can also be setup in the Companion App)
What kinda thing are you thinking of? An actual photobooth kinda box?
You could usr an Android tablet, install Open Camera (from F-Droid) and that has the ability to take (for example) 4 photos with a 10 sec delay… videos too…
Then use syncthing to copy those photos to something else (your phone, a NAS, etc) before it gets trashed / accidentally wiped, etc…
This is the way.
There’s nothing worse than finding your DNS/DHCP has gone down and it’s a VM / container running inside a server that can’t start because it doesn’t have an IP address and you can’t resolve names to get the thing started.
Break things down into chunks that make sense - to you.
I have dedicated (low power) hardware for the interweb firewall / DHCP / core network stuff.
I have a NAS for storage with all the backups / reinstall images on (so I can rebuild the firewall if there’s no internet, for example)
Then I have everything else in a single server.
Sources: a house fire, water leak & many hardware failures & borked upgrades over many decades.
Yes, because the CLI command is poweroff, so I do agree with you 🙂
(Please Wait… comments about alternative CLI commands will arrive soon…)
Yeah, that was me a couple years ago… I’d read some blogs, watched some yoochoobz and had data going from my NAS to Backblaze… encrypted…so… ok… is it restorable? No idea.
No, you can jusy restore to a second location…it depends on whether everything was backed up, or just a few test files.
I prefer backing up specific folders rather than “everything”, so it’s easier to test. (I’d just reinstall the OS if that was nuked)
Let’s say I want to do a test restore of all my photos. I just rename that folder to simulate that it’s been accidentally deleted… then I just do a normal restore - and do a bit-by-bit comparison of the two folders and check it all went well.
I think the main thing is for you to try doing a test restore of your data before you need to (and you already have a local backup anyway if your test goes wrong)
That will give you a better understanding of the whole process - they might be 100% reliable in storing data which is totally unusable by you because you’ve lost your decryption key, weren’t backing it up correctly, etc (for example).
:) you don’t have to use containers, but they do simplify the install.
I don’t use containers.
There’s also no Setup.exe to download run where you just Next, Next, Finish.
So, instead, I have to install separate packages, configure them, deal with conflicting requirements, etc…
Did I have to learn Docker? No. Did I have to learn something else? Yes.
As someone else mentioned, spending some time learning what / how / why you’re doing will help massively later on. Probably why you’re getting Docker answers, they’re auto-suggesting it to start you off with something simpler…
Yeah, good summary - I’m not using the latest version, but LiveTV channel changing still takes a second (on a dual tuner machine), but, like you said, we rarely watch LiveTV now and if we do, we’re not really channel hopping either.
Yeah… I’ve been trying out the resizable cards and… well… hopefully the next version will be better.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for incremental improvements and that means we need a Step1 somewhere.
I wanted to just change one dashboard, but there’s no migration option (yet?) which is fair enough, so I created a new one and tried copying over cards…
I have a couple of Glance cards with a title and I can’t really get a single row of icons with title to line up nicely unless I use a 3-row card…
But, it’s also nice to slim down a Graph card to just 2 or 3 columns wide if it’s a short-duration graph.
I look forward to the next revision.
Interesting, I have those on my car and I actively avoid using them.
It can’t cope with anything more than a simple scenario (dim around car in front, deal with on coming car in other lane). If you also have pedestrians and vehicles on side junctions, then you burn their eyes.
So, I’d assumed it was a US feature (straight, wide roads) brought over here
