(Quote) build.sh command: ./build.sh -j 2 -O ../obj -r -T ../tools -U distribution Nope! :) I forgot the -x flag to add X Windows! So, probably, something like build.sh command: ./build.sh -j 2 -O ../obj -r -T ../tools -U -x distribution …

Hi again @quangthang! I got a chance to read your posts and to look up a few things. I've never used NixOS, so I don't have anything to add to what you and @cmeerw already have said. I hope you go ahead on the server and have a lot of fu…

Hi @quangthang! I've seen your posts above but I haven't had a chance to read them carefully. Luckily @cmeerw was here and kindly responded! I'm glad you got in to the server! Yaaay! :star:

(Quote) Hi @hobofl! Sorry about my delayed response to your comment. I wanted to wait until I had a chance to look at the SFConservancy link you provided. I really appreciate your comment for at least four reasons. * First, your comment concisely…

(Quote) Hi @quangthang! Thanks for your request, which makes me happy! Of course, I definitely do remember you from previous servers, and so I am very delighted to have you joining hlcs! :star: I sent you login info. You are sharing root with me a…

I hear from Google Gemini that the contents of the fs directory includes: * The Virtual File System Layer (VFS) -- abstracts common operations across various file systems to enable presenting a unified interface to user applications, * Specific …

I heard the the filesystem code lives in the fs directory. So I took a look. Hey! We can see ext4 in there! And xfs! And btrfs! If I understand right, the ZFS code is not present, but needs to be added via a kernel module. root@manassas:/usr/local…

Hello! I wanted to glance at the Linux kernel filesystem code before installing more filesystems. In order to be 100% sure I wouldn't mess up our Community Server (Thanks @Hosteroid!) I cloned the kernel code with git on a VPS elsewhere. Sinc…

(Quote) Thanks for mentioning Oracle Free Tier! I had forgotten about them. You certainly are right that Oracle Free Tier ARM is similar to Netcup. Hetzner Cloud has ARM too.
-
@ralf Looks like our experiences are similar both with Oracle and with Netcup! :) (Quote) After many months of enjoying my Oracle free VPS, there came one week when, due to switching laptops to facilitate 2FA, I went an extra day or maybe two witho…

@DrNutella Very cool! :star:

(Quote) In 1972, I remember watching a group of laughing guys scrolling ascii art off a Teletype 33. But I didn't do much with computers myself until much later. And I never have done much with IRC. (Quote) You got me! I am using irssi on Libe…

The ii IRC client which I hopefully am learning to use writes output from the IRC server into "out" files in different directories, one per channel. For example, ii makes a new chanserv directory when "/cs help" is used for the f…

If I understand right, the lowendirc server is using anope services. Here is a link to anope services' syntax page, which has been helpful to me: https://clients.sisrv.net/knowledgebase/86/Anope-Services-commands.html Best wishes!

(Quote) Here is what's shown as available for Windows on my VPS in Phoenix. Don't know to what extent that availability generalizes to other configurations and locations. Don't know what additional costs, if any, might be involved. (…

Thanks for making the major three BSDs available! :star:

(Quote) This should be "We recommend that you create a non-root account and use su(1) for non-root access." /s Anyway, @Crab, congrats on trying NetBSD! I look forward to hearing what you think about NetBSD since you have so much experien…

(Quote) I haven't ever tried what you are doing, but I am guessing you need to access the link in a browser running on the same machine on which ssh is running. That's because the link gives you a code that rclone uses to tell Google Drive…

Since it's Happy New Year! 🎉 time, I thought I might review what could be coming up on my terrific Linveo self-compiled NetBSD-current VPS. * Updating I need to update the sources and rebuild. That goes for both the system sources and the pk…

(Quote) @DrNutella A while back I asked Google One Support whether Google had instructions on using rclone with Google Drive. Google told me they did not. Here is a Google Sites page from NYU, which might be helpful: https://sites.google.com/nyu.…

@Crab Following up on your kind suggestion to try ZFS, I posted above: (Quote) Besides having to study up on ZFS itself, at minimum, I also need at least to * study up on logical block addressing ("LBA"); * install the ZFS packages @C…

Debian and ssh! 🍉

We seem to be close to articulating the reason why I stick to ext4. There are so many technical advantage to the advanced file systems. These make me jealous! But then there also are horror stories every once in awhile on HN. The file systems seem a…

Hi @Crab! Thanks! Don't have any services with H4F as yet. Nevertheless it does seem that we all ought to have even more fun throughout 2025! Wish even more fun for you, for Riyad, for H4F, and for everyone here! 🎉
