Motion on my RPI. I didn’t want it to save videos or photos, so I turned it off in the config. But it still saved them. So I tried a few other places in the config to turn it off, but nothing worked and I’d run out of space within a day. So I changed the save directory to /dev/null.

Then I tried to upgrade the pi, and the new version of motion has a different config, incompatible with the old one. So I’m running the old one.

Hi, I’m a chef. I’m just playing around with raspberry pis and stuff. I just like learning and seeing what I can do.

I had an Acer laptop once. I had Ubuntu on it. I had problems with random crashing after a few minutes, I ran memtest, it took a few hours for a full test and came back with a whole slew of faults. I sent it to Acer under warranty and they told me that Linux was the problem and I should leave windows on it.

If you can put together Lego with the instructions or IKEA furniture, you’ll be fine. It took me three tries, and I learnt stuff from each mistake, so the worst that can happen is you learn.

It’s a heavy crown to wear.

I haven’t played with it but I installed tandoor.dev ready for when I get time to look at it.

Plus tax. Finland is stopping everything from outside EU and demanding proof that tax is paid. So I have to look at the prices with postage and add 24%.

Usually, I’d agree with you, but I use mine about half the time as a copy machine. To have to scan on one device and print on another would be annoying, I have enough trouble making the thing work already, I don’t want that trouble doubled.

Play with the settings before you start, if I want a relaxed play around, I’ll set competitors to zero, breakdowns to never and stuff.

Then I’ll find a nice area with a few towns close by and connect them with roads. Then I put bus stops in the centre of the towns, the ones you put on a road. Between the towns, I put a depot and buy a bus. Then you have to tell the bus to go to each bus stop, and send it on its way.

Then I have a basic income, and I look for industry and resources to truck around. Later I play with trains and ships and airports and supply chains and stuff. But I keep the busses going.

I recommend next time to use btrfs. With / and /home (at least) as separate subvolumes. Each subvolume will use the space it needs, and no more. If you have a 500Gb SSD with 300Gb in /home, and 20 in / they both have 180Gb they can use.

And when you manage to fill the 500Gb, it’s easy to just add another drive to the volume.

I had a 6 month old Acer laptop that started misbehaving so I ran Memtest, it took hours, but found faults in the memory. So I took it back to the shop, they sent it on to Acer who sent it back saying Linux was the problem and I should only use windows. But they replaced the main board, “just in case”
