a btrfs "array" in unraid is composed by individual btrfs partitions mounted as /mnt/disk1 /disk2 /disk3 and so on, then there's a daemon that makes a "unified" view at /mnt/user/, and it uses a different algorithm for parity.

There's a way to make real btrfs raid arrays, but it has been introduced very recently (1-2 years ago), and it's not the default that you create when you use the Web UI.

The unraid array it's not an array, but a bunch of xfs partitions where a third party program is doing softraid. If opened on any other Linux distro, they will mount but parity drives are ignored

If you have new drives: make a zfs array and copy all files there

If you want to recycle drives while temporarily keeping the parity drives: from unraid 7 set a drive as unused, use the mover (or unbalance) to empty it, check if it's actually empty by going to /mnt/diskX , format it as btrfs, set it as preferred for your shares, choose another disk to empty, use the mover to move all the data from the next disk to the new btrfs one, then remove the empty drive and add it to the btrfs raid. Repeat.

What I hate the most is that in order to know the pricing I have to watch a 2 hours demo, and at that point I already know that it's unaffordable because they're starting to do calculations "this is how much you're going to save".

Saw a 100% offline quoting tool that, they wanted $1000 per month because "you and your team will save 200 hours per month so this tool pays back in less than 2 weeks"

  1. It's offline
  2. We have to pay for the server
  3. It requires a month of training and data fitting (at our expense)
  4. Doesn't require any additional update and once set can be left like that for decades

Why the hell it's a subscription????

I always wonder if those actually work

"We help you find real verified customers 100% guaranteed" - says the ones that mass mailed a honeypot address that's visible only to bots (so it's not real, not verified and lands directly in spam dragging down your email domain reputation)

Uncompressed Blu-ray rips are almost the same size when compressed with lossless compression. The binary content of h264 files are almost random bits so deduplication is almost a waste of CPU time. Maybe you can save space from the useless repeated media like trailers and other ads in the bluray isos

I'd absolutely pay that 23 cents PayPal invoice as there's a fixed 35 cents fixed fee on every transaction plus 3%, so if you pay it, it costs them 13 cents

spammers they just email info@domain and call it a day, they don't try to see if you have some custom naming scheme. I bounce all emails sent to that, the rest is catchall, with occasional blacklist to some TLD like .monster .asia .xyz or .su

First amendment? That was during democracy,

Did the TikTok CEO donate some millions to Trump like all the others? Yes, someone in the bytedance board donated 1.4 millions to Trump super PAC, so that's what it counts.

Wait, there's now a paywall on the verge? It's a/b testing?

Fucking MICROSOFT did that with Hotmail

news site? BGR hasn't posted actual news in at least two decades, only clickbait and apple fanservice
