Question for #Linux users: I managed to cause filesystem damage on a 4TB drive during system stability testing after a few system failures while OCing. Whatever the actual filesystem damage is it is it's subtle though. At this time I can't rig up enough space to transfer all the data off of the drive and just reformat it like I'd love to do.
So far as I can tell, existing files all read without any problems. The weird issue is sometimes when writing new files, eventually it just sort of freezes up and then eventually produces an error until I unmount, remount (so it can run the journal back,) unmount again, then run xfs_repair on it (yes I'm using xfs.)
Until such time as I can get all the data off to reformat, is there anything I can do to actually fix this?

#FOSS is all about options:
- I chose not to use #RedHat systems 28 years ago.
- I chose not te use #GNOME 15 years ago
- I chose not to use #SystemD 6 years ago.
- I choose to accelerate the migration of all the #Linux based systems I can to #BSD systems because:
- I choose to keep up with the #UNIX way
- I choose to use stable systems which don't change for the sake of change
- I choose to be part of healthier communities, that don't promote monoculture or fall so easily into arrogance

🎞️ A developer managed to reverse pixelation in video using FFmpeg, GIMP and edge detection - no AI involved.
By analyzing motion and edges across frames, they could reconstruct original content from blurred areas.
It’s a reminder: pixelation is visual, not secure.

My latest blog post: Migrating my Mastodon server to Masto.host
https://mikecoats.com/migrating-to-masto-host/
I migrated my Mastodon server from a self-hosted DigitalOcean droplet to an instance provided by Masto.host. The process was straightforward and took less than an hour.
#0ad is possibly one of the most advanced #foss games. It's a multi-platform #RTS historical #game, and there's currently an appimage for #Linux users found at #github (in case #flatpak isn't to your liking).
Plays really smoothly, although it eats my 2015's #Macbook Air's battery (running Linux #Mint) for lunch. We're talking that it has about 30 minutes of overall #gameplay before I need to recharge. CPU utilization is at about 50-60%. @play0ad
Windows 9x Subsystem for Linux
You can find beauty in the oddest of places.
WSL9x runs a modern Linux kernel (6.19 at time of writing) cooperatively inside the Windows 9x kernel, enabling users to take advantage of the full suite of capabilities of both operating systems at the same time, including paging, memory protection, and pre-emptive scheduling. Run all your favourite applications side by side -
