What if my language is love?

It is useable but the user interface is clunky and the developers have a mindset that settings need to be hidden from the users which is kinda weird for the target group that are home automation tweakers. A lot of the UI/UX is designed from a software developers perspective, not from the eyes of a user. It would be nice to have different third party web interfaces to choose from.

I believe it can do either Zigbee or Thread, not both simultaneously, just for your information. And I’ve got the impression that IKEA is going all in on Thread and while some devices can still be programmed for Zigbee, it’s spotty and not guaranteed and will probably be phased out entirely eventually. Starting from scratch today I’d say go with Thread unless you have a very good reason to do Zigbee.

I got some from Ali Express. They seem ok for the price. Dirt moisture and air temp and humidity. Dual AAA though so kind of large.

The fallout for people knowingly risking their data beta testing a filesystem that is still in experimental and some users running into issues and possibly corruption?

There are no stories because it is not a story when a test environment for finding bugs fails and the bugs get fixed. Nobody with data they can not lose are putting it on bcachefs because why would they.

Thanks for running a test environment though. Please take backups of anything important, just in case.

That the developer himself finds it absolutely necessary to push new code outside the window for upcoming versions of the kernel is a pretty good indication.

It was nowhere close to be mature enough to be in the kernel. The developer is nowhere close to be mature enough to be involved in the kernel. It’s better for everybody if it is developed separately and maybe integrated again at a later stage when the file system and tooling are considered stable and changes are smaller and less sensitive. CacheFS being in the kernel might mislead people to rely on a filesystem that is still experimental and under heavy development. Personally I am looking forward to see it mature because I’d love to run it on my file storage home server when it is stable enough.

Install both, let her try them out and decide for herself.

If you think so and that this is important, maybe you could be the one that makes it happen. Start a project and gather like-minded people. That is how Linux, FOSS and community driven efforts operate. It’s useless to complain that nobody else makes the effort if you have the capabilities but can’t be arsed making an attempt yourself.

There is no authority delegating responsibilities of writing tutorials for Linux. It is the responsibility of nobody and everybody. If you can’t find one for your problem, write it yourself when you have figured it out.

For every change there is an angry Linux user. Even when it is easily disabled and never a problem again.

On the flip side - how often do you install new programs so this becomes an annoyance in the first place?

I install something new maybe once a month or less for desktop use. I have not even noticed this blip.

Somewhat more often in and for terminal use.

Hey OP, you were released today with performance gains!

Ha, gotchem. The drive by compliment strikes again.

I’m in the same position. I’ve got several paid VST that I’d like to use in Reaper on Linux but haven’t gotten around trying to fiddle about when the installer fails. Not very experienced with Wine and quirks.

Somebody told me I’d be easier off getting installer free cracked versions of the software I already paid for but idk about malware and such in pirated software nowadays. Is it possible to containerize VSTs so they have access to nothing but their instance of Wine?

Zigbee door/window sensors are like €3 on AliExpress. They are easy to install and work fine imho.

I remember expanding my Amiga with 512KB to 1MB Fast RAM and later going crazy with another two megabyte Slow RAM.

Yep, me neither. I’m looking forward to see how it compares with zfs and btrfs when it is ready, but for now I wouldn’t consider it for anything.

Oh, wow look at that. Last time I checked it was still ~“for testing purposes only, do not use in production”.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but everybody considers bcachefs to still be in alpha.

Only a complete idiot would use an alpha stage filesystem in production and then whine about bugs and data corruption.

I think this post smells of clickbait.

That floppy begs to be copied.
