Hello again! Ya'll are my last hope for help! I've posted to both the proxmox forums and r/proxmox and nobody's responding.

Here's the deal, I built this home media server about a year ago. Took some time to work out the bugs, but I got TrueNAS Scale and Jellyfin on it and started filling it up. A few weeks ago TrueNAS started freezing up, but would work for a little while after a restart, but then it stopped working. I poked around and I found that there needed to be some sort of new EFI boot thing established. I followed it and it worked. A few days later, jellyfin freezes, I can't access the pve GUI or anything, so I do a hard reset. Now proxmox can't launch pve, let alone the GUI. So I've been poking around and found that the drives are at 100% usage, and inodes are at 100% usage (see pic, disk usage is the same % as the inode usage). Digging deeper, I try to find the offending folder in /rpool/ROOT/pve-1, but there are no deeper directories listed. So I drill down into the other pig one /subvol-100-disk-0; this lead me to find a jellyfin metadata library folder with a bunch of small files using up <250 inodes each. I've searched all over the place and haven't been able to figure out what I could delete to at least get pve up and running, and work towards... idk, migrating it to a new larger drive? Or setting up something to automatically clear old files?

At any rate, I'm running 2 old 512gb laptop drives for all the OSs on the server. I have it in a ZFS mirror raid.

PS: Come to think of it, I've had to expand the size of the virtual drive for my jellyfin LXC multiple times now to get the container to actually launch. Seems I know just enough to get myself into trouble.

Someone, please help me rite my pirate ship!

If I was still in California, I'd be very tempted to get right in the face of devout computer touchers that still worship King Bazinga and laugh obnoxiously loud in their face in a way that might provoke a fistfight.

That's how I feel right now. For some reason, this many layers of blantant lies with no consequences and credulous techbros still buying into it sort of entertains me but also pisses me off enough that throwing hands, just once, might feel good.

I wanted to block Google's shitty AI results. Ok it looks like I can add &udm=14 to the url to do that.

Let me just add a custom search engine in Firefox... oh wait apparently you can't add custom search engines anymore. You have to install an extension for that.

Ok I found an extension that does it but it makes Firefox say "search with [extension name]" instead of "search with Google" and the icon is different which is annoying.

Should be an easy fix, just download the extension's source and modify the manifest.json to name it "Google" and change the icon to Google's.

Alright now let's install it and... "This add-on could not be installed because it has not been verified." Wtf I have to sign my own add-ons just to use locally?

Fine whatever download the shitty npm program to sign the add-on (it downloaded 400 dependencies btw). Oh wait I need an API key to sign the add-on to use it locally. I'm not getting a fucking API key to run local code.

Oh good there's actually an about:config setting to disable add-on signing... and it doesn't work anymore.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Is there a good Firefox fork that undoes this bullshit but otherwise keeps up with the main codebase and isn't a pain to switch to?

WOOAAAAAUW OH MY GOD WAOW

📱 LOOK AT THAT, THE MADMAN DID IT HE ACTUALLY DID IT

DAE THINK THIS IS THE FUTURE? IT'S LIKE WE'RE IN BACK TO THE FUTURE

musk does it again!

Please help. Send help please.

I want names of the people that we know that are falling for this

No I don't know who's behind it but I'd imagine fucking copyright holders are no doubt involved.

OpenAI, a non-profit AI company that will lose anywhere from $4 billion to $5 billion this year, will at some point in the next six or so months convert into a for-profit AI company, at which point it will continue to lose money in exactly the same way. Shortly after this news broke, Chief Technology Officer Mira Murati resigned, followed by Chief Research Officer Bob McGrew and VP of Research, Post Training Barret Zoph, leaving OpenAI with exactly three of its eleven cofounders remaining.

This coincides suspiciously with OpenAI's increasingly-absurd fundraising efforts, where (as I predicted in late July) OpenAI has raised the largest venture-backed fundraise of all time $6.6 billion— at a valuation of $157 billion.

I recently had a memory come back to being on aol sometime in 2001 and chatting with someone who claimed to be from Japan. This was in an anime chat room I used to visit.

Was the service available outside the USA?

On Friday night, cryptocurrency scammers briefly hacked the LEGO website to promote a fake Lego token that could be purchased with Ethereum.

During the breach, the hacker replaced the main banner for the official LEGO website with an image showing crypto tokens branded with the "LEGO" logo and text stating, "Our new LEGO Coin is officially out! Buy the new LEGO Coin today and unlock secret rewards!"

According to LEGO Reddit moderator "mescad," the breach took place at 9 PM EST and lasted approximately 75 minutes until 10:15 PM ET, when the site was restored.

Unlike many cryptocurrency scams, this one did not promote a malicious site with a crypto drainer that stole your assets when you connected your wallet.

Instead, clicking the "Buy now" link brought visitors to the Uniswap cryptocurrency platform, where you could purchase the LEGO scam token using Ethereum.

LEGO confirmed the breach to BleepingComputer but would not share details on how the threat actors gained access to their website.

"On 5 October 2024, an unauthorised banner briefly appeared on LEGO.com. It was quickly removed, and the issue has been resolved," LEGO told BleepingComputer.

"No user accounts have been compromised, and customers can continue shopping as usual. The cause has been identified and we are implementing measures to prevent this from happening again."

Overall, the attack was a failure, with only a few people purchasing the LEGO token for a few hundred dollars.

For years and decades now the concept of terraforming Mars has kept researchers and science experts on their feet scratching their heads to find a solution. This enthusiasm came from various fictional novels and movies that have given scientists hope that perhaps they can implement this idea. According to research, Mars has the potential to be humanity’s second home and they are trying to make this concept a reality.

If Mars is ever to be terraformed, it will be a monumental task. Terraforming Mars could take decades or even centuries in its initial stages. Additionally, we do not have the technological capacity to implement this initiative. This sobering realisation highlights the enormous obstacles that stand in our way of realising the aim of altering the Red Planet. NASA needs to reassess the grand dream of Terraforming Mars

The dream or vision of making Mars a planet that can give life to humanity is an interesting one. This concept has been part of scientific language and conversation for decades now and it promises not to just give humanity a different perspective, but, also to serve as plan B as the Earth is changing. Scientists have hypothesised that humanity may establish conditions conducive to human life on Mars by releasing greenhouse gases and altering Martian.

NASA has admitted to this impossible mission stating that It is not possible to terraform Mars with current technology. Mars’ thin atmosphere and deficiency in vital resources such as enough carbon dioxide that would be required to start a greenhouse effect and warm the planet are the main obstacles. The idea of converting Mars into an environment more like Earth is significantly more difficult than first thought due to the harsh reality of the planet’s current status.

Therefore, the issue is not entirely based on technology, but also based on the enormity of the resources needed. Less than 1% of Earth’s atmosphere is found on Mars, and the planet does not have a magnetic field to shield it from cosmic radiation. It is therefore a wise idea for scientists and researchers to discard this idea since reports state that it could take thousands of decades to implement this idea. Unless a new technology advances enough to take on this big idea. Obstacles on the journey to a habitable Mars: Scientific, material, and time

Mars does not have the nature or resources that are similar to Earth that can even give us hope. If it comprises less than 1% of what the Earth attributes, then it could be a waste of time, resources and investments. Due to the abundance of carbon dioxide in our atmosphere (earth), heat is retained and a rather stable climate is produced. Mars’s sparse atmosphere prevents the planet from efficiently retaining heat.

According to Bonsor (n.d.), NASA is reportedly developing a solar sail propulsion technology that would harness solar energy to power spaceships through the use of enormous reflective mirrors. Placing these massive mirrors a few hundred thousand kilometres away from Mars would be another way to use them: to heat the Martian surface by reflecting solar radiation.

NASA has found that, even in the event that all of Mars’ CO2 could be released, the atmospheric pressure required for human survival without a spacesuit would not be produced. The entire accessible carbon dioxide is insufficient to generate a habitable atmosphere, and transferring more gases from Earth or other celestial planets is currently beyond our technical capabilities.

The lack of a magnetic field on Mars presents another significant difficulty. The Earth’s magnetic field is essential for protecting the world from solar winds and dangerous cosmic radiation, which would otherwise remove our atmosphere. Mars has a thin atmosphere now because billions of years ago, the planet lost its magnetic field. It is just not possible to build an artificial magnetic shield using the technologies available today in order to terraform Mars.

The idea of terraforming may not be fully realised for several millennia, even though humans might visit Mars this century. It took the Earth billions of years to develop into a planet on which plants and animals could flourish. It is not an easy task to change the Martian landscape to resemble Earth. To create a livable environment and introduce life to the icy, arid planet of Mars, generations of human creativity and labour will be required (Bonsor, n.d).

I want to get one.

The neat part of this is that they're requiring Google to give up their library of apps to other stores and won't allow them to buy up exclusives for at least 3 years. I suspect we will see a lot of scam app stores really soon, though.
