  • Why do you need the files in your local?
    Is your network that slow?

    I’ve heard of multiple content creators which have their video files in their NAS to share between their editors, and they work directly from the NAS.
    Could you do the same? You’ll be working with music, so the network traffic will be lower than with video.

    If you do this you just need a way to mount the external directory, either with rclone or with sshfs.


    The disks on my NAS go to sleep after 10 minutes idle time and if possible I would prefer not waking them up all the time

    I think this is a good strategy to not put additional stress in your drives (as a non-expert of NAS), but I’ve read the actual wear and tear of the drives is mostly during this process of spinning up and down. That’s why NAS drives should be kept spinning all the time.
    And drives specifically built for NAS setups are designed with this in mind.



  • This is one of the exceptions.
    This reform will make judges be able to be voted by the people, and all the world knows the implications of that in Mexico’s elections.
    It also removes a lot of the requirements to the candidates.

    Currently there are cases of people trying to get judicial protection against laws the executive is pushing which the legislature blindly approved since they were put in there by the ruling party. Now imagine if that ruling party was also deep into the judicial system, the people wouldn’t have anyone to turn to ask for help.

    And that’s what investors are concerned about, investing in Mexico and losing everything because there’s no one to stop what the president says.


  • I had a similar case.
    My minipc has a microSD card slot and I figured if it could be done for a RPI, why not for a mini PC? :P

    After a few months I bought a new m2nvme but I didn’t want to start from scratch (maybe I should’ve looked into nix?)
    So what I did was sudo dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdc bs=1024k status=progress
    And that worked perfectly!

    Things to note:

    • both drives need to be unmounted, so you need a live OS or another machine.
    • The new drive will have the same exact partitions, which means the same size, so you need to expand them after the copy.
    • PS: this was for a drive with ext4 partitions, but in theory dd works with the bytes so it shouldn’t be an issue what fs you use.


  • What?
    Well, I can only speak for myself, I’m not here to follow users but communities.
    And if someone wants to follow me I’d see it as kind of annoying for them seeing all the different topics I post and comment instead of something focused.

    IMO the ability to see Mastodon interactions in Lemmy and vice-versa is quite annoying since they use the same protocol for different experiences.








  • I’m not completely sure I understand what you want to do, I can share some tips.

    With FreshRSS you can get the RSS feed of a youtube channel and receive notifications, but YT only gives you the latests 15 or 20 videos, so you won’t get older videos, only newer ones.
    From this URL https://www.youtube.com/@rossmanngroup you need to transform it to something like this https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=UCl2mFZoRqjw_ELax4Yisf6w
    You can automate it with an extension in FreshRSS.

    Or if you want you can use tubearchivist which will process the channel and download the videos to process them and index them.


  • I love playing Dwar Fortress, I’ve spent hours and hours in there.
    The game is free from the developera site, the download is only 15MB.
    If you want to support them you can buy it in steam, the listed requirements is 500MB of storage, I assume since this version has a tile set.

    I’ve also put so far 400 hours in oxygen not included, I think it uses around 2GB of storage.

    And to me, any monster hunter game its worth its price, I’ve bought each game and played it for minimum 200 hours each, I think I reached 500 in on of them.
    Tho the newer ones are pretty heavy for their respective platforms. Also triple-A game price.

    Text to speech is what piper is doing.
    What I’m looking for is called voice changer since I want to change a voice which already read something.

    That’s exactly what I want: “the thing in the Darth Vader halloween masks” but for linux, preferably via CLI to ingest audio files and be able to configure it to change the voice as I want, not only Darth Vader.
