Please remember things like this when you say “hate speech isn’t free speech”. I wouldn’t put it past the Republicans to claim that pro-LGBT+ or pro-choice is hate speech against Christians.

Hexbear sucks so hard you had to create an account on a better server? Or is it to get around being defederated for being obnoxious shitheads?

go the fuck back to hexbear. Your instance sucks so hard you went and created another account on another instance to get around defederation. Fuck you.

Hexbear users are such shit they had to make an account on lemm.ee because hexbear is defederated from so many places. Fucking losers.

STOP USING JAVACRIPT

so did it work?

Hard drives are divided into partitions. Once they’re made they’re (mostly) static, it’s just a division, no other features.

LVM (Linux Volume Manager) makes it’s own "partitions" with hookers and blackjack. Since it’s done in the OS and not on the drive it’s a LOT more flexible.

It takes disk(s) and/or partitions and combines them into a volume group (VG) and then lets you create it’s own divisions, called [logical] volumes (LV), to split up the storage. Think of this as a “virtual hard drive” that has a TON of features.

VGs can include multiple drives and are easy to grow or shrink, add, remove, or replace physical drives, cache another volume, encrypt, make snapshots and roll back (eg: snapshot before update, restore if update borks something). Just so much

You can even set the RAID level for each volume! RAID controls how many copies are kept on different drives. RAID1 (or raid10) has 2 drives hold the data) for important things so even if one drive fails you still have a working copy.

RAID0only stores it on one device. There’s RAID5 (3 copies) but it’s mostly obsolete at this point as the rebuild process is painfully slow and adds addition wear on the other drives.

Let’s say you have 4x 4TB drives, for 16TB of raw space (raid0). Making it a raid1 would give you 8TB of space (since two copies are stored on different drives). But if you only need 1TB as a raid1 and the rest is raid0 you end up with 14TB of space left over! That’s a lot more than 8TB!

There’s a brazillion different options and useful things it can do. Mostly I find it useful for working with raids on servers. But I’ve stated leaving a few hundred gigs on my laptop to create volumes as need, such as an encrypted volume that’s not unlocked on login to store passwords, keys, and porn tokens.

Is this an EFI or BIOS boot? You might need EFI.

 1 1 1 free            \
    $bios_boot{ }       \
    method{ biosgrub }  \
.                       \
256 40 256 fat32        \
    $primary{ }         \
    $lvmignore{ }       \
    method{ efi }       \
    format{ }           \

Add something like that to the start of your expert script should set up a grub partition AND and efi partition.

LVM is the Linux Volume Manager. In short it’s kind of like a partitioner inside the OS (but with lots of cool features, like encryption, snapshots and restores, and caches, RAID)

So you add all your drives, potentially with different groups like NVME, SSD. Then in those groups you create a volume (think partition).

Examples:

• For example my laptop has one drive, and one volume group, but I have a separate volume for home so I can take snapshot (which are small if things haven’t changed much!) and keep my home direecty when installing a new distro. I also make a separate volume for a VM to keep my machine clean.

• My server, however, has 2 NVME drives and 12 spinning rust drives in 3 USB enclosures. Each USB drive is set as its own VG. USB is slow though, LVM to the rescue.

I set the rest of the space on the 1st NVME and all the space on the 2nd NVME to work as a cache for each of the external enclosures.

Now writes are NVME speeds and it will write back to the spinning rust at USB speed. Reads from the usb enclosures if cached are at NVME If it’s in the read cache I get is at NVME speeds, otherwise it reads off the drive. At this point my read cache since creation is 82% and continuing to climb. So less than 1/5th of the reads actually went over the USB. At the rate it’s climbing the current hit rate must be in the mid to high 90s.

A pre-seed file is basically the answers to all the questions the installer would normally ask, like how to partition the drives, what mirror to use, software to install, settings to make, etc. default user accounts, etc. Now you can run that installer on a machine and walk away until it’s done.

What, exactly, is the current LVM setup?

does sda1p2_crypt need to be mounted and/or preserved at that point in the script?

What is the full command being run that fails?

The easiest answer might just be to remove it from the group and then add it back

pvremove /dev/sda1p2_crypt

your code

vgextend crypt /dev/sda1p2_crypt

Everyone I know uses signal, even our neighborhood group messaging is a signal group.

Then again my neighbors are all reasonable people.

Actual health insurance is literally illegal in the USA. It’s all some sort of partially pre-paid health subscription crap that you get punished for not buying. Every time the government steps in the help they make it worse, even as far back as WW2 with “salary caps” leading to extra non-monetary incentives, like medical insurance, company car, etc. Then the government gives business tax breaks to provide insurance making it more expensive for an individual to buy so now your health is tied to your work. Then they help by… etc. etc. etc.

Depends on what age you could as “child”. But yeah.

DO NOT START DRINKING

Then it’s really bad parody.

Either way, it’s poorly written.

That was a horribly written article. What is this tabloid trash?

chill, bro

Debian. It’s FOSS.

I can have a 100% FOSS system. Everything else includes non-free stuff by default.

A billionaire will implode going to look for it.

How? I don’t see what could find dns-over-https in the middle of other https traffic?
