My Synology NAS seems to be doing this thing where no services are available after a restart. I can't get to the web interface, samba isn't available, and a bunch of scripts don't seem to work from command line. I really didn't have let's go through a bunch of logs and see what's broken today on my non-existent bingo card, but here we are, I guess.

Truly excellent writeup about the current clusterfuck that is Framework (computers):
Framework under fire for Omarchy/DHH/Hyprland support?

Get a refurbished ThinkPad through Minifree, preinstalled with Libreboot and funds the further development.
Or get a vintage ThinkPad with modern internals.

I guarantee you every Linux distro has fascist retards involved, they just keep their mouths shut. I've met them everywhere. They don't just not exist because they're smart enough to code switch and conceal their alternate online identities
so what are people gonna do when they learn the Linux kernel has a ton of code written by fascists in it? *crickets*
@feld
Thanks for the elaboration, now I understand your point a bit better.
There is, however, a difference between the two of them. Framework does this on a corporate level, whereas contributors to the Linux kernel (or whatever open source project) are individuals.
It is like finding out that your favorite barista at the coffeeshop chain is a nazi, as opposed to the chain donating to $fascist_party.
alright I'll play your game.
Tuxedo, Slimbook, NovaCustom, and Star Labs all sell Windows so they're supporting genocide in Gaza, why don't you care about genocide?
@feld
so being specific about why this alarms me:
I don't actually care that they donated to the projects without looking into it, that's pretty normal.
it's that, when pointed out, their response was "we don't care about their beliefs, so long as they are participating in open source". and. to me, their beliefs have a pretty direct impact on whether or not they can be good participants in open source!
it points to this idea that, actually, they are just fine with a vision of open source that doesn't include me and lots of my trans/POC friends, same as these other projects.

#FediHelp needed: the final phase of our metadata reorganization is now in progress. During our cleanup, we a.o. found a bunch of no longer maintained apps which we think might be considered "niche" – but are not sure which of those are really still useful, and thus should be kept.
So if you use one of them and still find it useful – or recently tried one of them and it didn't even work, can you please check codeberg.org/IzzyOnDroid/Every… and leave a comment? Thanks!

so, my current de-stressing activity is learning English round hand from period copy-books. the lines in copy-books that aren't just practice letter-forms are horrifically boring, extremely cringe moral mottoes, and I'm running out of stuff to practice writing
current texts include the long-term nuclear waste warning message, old copypasta like "then who was phone", city names, scientific names, this alphabetic poem from an 1806 manual
any ideas for one-liners or very short texts? or, I guess, anything you want put in fancy script, albeit by a beginner

Hi there.
I'm a big ol' Docker idiot.
I need to add a private key to a docker environment, specifically referencing this projects:
github.com/mattmelling/asl-zel…
I guess I need Docker Basics 101, since I don't really have much experience with it.
I have built the thing based on it's included docker file. Now I need to add this private key before launching it with docker run.
The README expects one knows how to actually use docker, which I suppose is fair. So, do I run a minimal something so I can shell into it and create files before running the complete environment, or what?
GitHub - mattmelling/asl-zello-bridge
Contribute to mattmelling/asl-zello-bridge development by creating an account on GitHub.GitHub
Mount the local keyfile as a volume inside the container by adding something like this to the `docker run` command:
-v local\path\to\private.key:/container/path/to/private.key:ro
Then tell the project where to find the in-container keyfile as the GitHub page indicates.
(Note: I'm assuming you're on Windows with the backslashes there, but change to forward slashes in the host path if not.)

Ich teste momentan ja #Gnome unter #Fedora auf meinem Arbeitsgerät, während ich eigentlich seit Jahren privat und vorher beruflich #KDE #Plasma gewohnt bin.
Weiß noch nicht ob ich dabie bleibe. Ich muss mich ehct bei sehr vielen DIngen umgewöhnen und einiges umbiegen bzw. nach meinen Bedürfnissen konfigurieren. Aber eigentlich will ich den Desktop ja nicht zu stark verbiegen...
An anderen Stellen vermisse ich Features.
Nein, ist natürlich nicht alles blöd: Gnome ist wirklich schick und fühlt sich wie aus einem Guss an, außerdem gibt es auch wirklich tolle #GnomeCircle Apps.
Gibt es tolle Exklusiv-Features oder Workflows, die ich mir mal anschauen sollte? 👀
was ist GNOME circle? (Ich benutze eigentlich fast ausschließlich GNOME seit bestimmt fast 10 Jahren, aber glaube eigentlich fast keine einzige der GNOME apps)
Ah, gefunden. Mh, i don't think I have a need for any of those ^^.
Today my fishmonger Fran in el mercado Salamanca, had some really wonderful clams - almejas de carril. Just the right size, not too big, not too small.
Perfect for almejas a la marinera #cooking
I'm making a sofrito. Just with an onion and two tomatoes, finely chopped, and some salt.
The trick is to let the onions cook slowly. In Spanish, this is called ‘pochar’ - to poach in oil. It gives the onions a complexity of flavour, and then once they’re translucent, in go the finely chopped vine tomatoes (I peeled these, because they’re delicious but the skin is a little tough) again, simmering slowly, to bring out that magical change that happens to slow cooked tomatoes. #cooking
One of the things I love most about a lot of Spanish #cooking is that, often, there aren’t a lot of ingredients. The object is to let the few that are there shine. Which is why we’re so picky about ingredients down here. Good olive oil, good tomatoes, good onions, good clams and a nice manzanilla to steam the clams in with some garlic.
The complexity of flavour tends, I think, to come from the method of cooking, rather than seasonings.
I've officially finished the email<=>XMPP gateway grant 🎉. Lot of stuff done. The gateway is working but there are still things to do, notably finishing the e2ee encryption which is complex.
I'll most probably blog about it (and the previous A/V one) next week.

The volume my raid lives on isn't mounted. Yeah, this might be more serious than I thought. Neat!
Patrick Perdue
in reply to Patrick Perdue • • •Broken NAS update:
Good news:
Taking out the motherboard and replacing the CR-1220 battery wasn't particularly difficult. I've done way worse things.
Bad news:
Other than the new battery, I'm still right where I was before.
The RAID isn't mounting, whatever is supposed to sync the time isn't, and everything is still broken... except now it keeps time after a reboot. And, by the way, due to whatever IO junk is going on, it takes about 7 minutes to reboot after executing sudo shutdown -r now.
sudo reboot just never works.
So, yeah, fun.
Next step, probably, is to install a single, initialized drive (which I don't have) and set the operating system up as new to see if it will import the RAID from the existing pool when I put all the original drives back in, unless someone has a better idea.

in reply to Patrick Perdue • • •So, I want to post some questions about this DS1815Plus problem on Reddit.
I've never used Reddit before, and the official Synology support forum has a big stupid CAPTCHA that, yes, I could solve with AI or whatever, but I just don't have the spoons to deal with all that today.
So, trying to sign up on Reddit, I was greeted with no fewer than seven "something went wrong" errors in different places, and a verification code but no place to put one in. Very exciting.
Patrick Perdue
in reply to Patrick Perdue • • •Even more updates:
It seems like the NAS is trying to repair itself. All my shares are now visible under /volume1 again, even though essentially none of the built-in services -- web management, samba, etc. are currently useable. The drives are chugging madly, and the shell is still not quite completely unresponsive.
Also, I manually set the clock less than an hour ago just to see what it would do, as it went back to January 01, 2014 again, since NTP isn't happening for whatever reason, and it's already gained about 24 minutes since then.
Uptime has this to say for itself:
22:12:42 up 51 min, 2 users, load average: 26.05, 27.44, 22.21 [IO: 26.04, 27.32, 21.93 CPU: 0.01, 0.12, 0.28.
So, I guess I'll just let it sit here and do whatever it does, and hopefully it will fix itself in time, and not blow up and make terrible noises in the middle of the night.
It's probably just coincidence that the CMOS battery was dead.
Hopefully, at some point, I can just restart this thing again, and it updates the system clock, and things start working as normal.
I've got a couple of projects that are currently in limbo until I can access resources again. Great timing.
Update: Samba just came back online, though it's very, very sloooooow.
Anyway, it's progress.
Patrick Perdue
in reply to Patrick Perdue • • •Basically, all this happened because at least one drive has completely failed, and another one wants to very badly. This pool has two disk tolerance, so I have to do stuff now, right this very now, to prevent data loss. But, for whatever reason, I got no notifications. No beeps, no emails or push notifications. Anything that should have alerted me completely failed to do so.
On top of that, the CMOS battery just happened to die, which turned out to, I think, be mostly unrelated.
I've just ordered four 12TB Ironwolf drives. Can't afford to buy eight in one go, so I'll replace half now, half later, obviously one disk at a time.
Patrick Perdue
in reply to Patrick Perdue • • •Continuing to play with this messed up NAS, because I can't put it down:
I have no idea how I'm going to deactivate drives and replace them in the prescribed way. The Synology web management portal is brutally slow, often times out internally, and sometimes, elements of the page just don't appear at all for minutes at a time in it's current state. There is also a potential accessibility problem highlighting a drive in the storage manager, when I can even get to the storage manager. I say potential, because I can't tell if it's not working due to accessibility, or because the interface is so ridiculously slow in it's current broken state. This is so much fun!
Edit:
It was the thing being slow. I'll have to be very careful replacing the drives on this thing.
Patrick Perdue
in reply to Patrick Perdue • • •I've been running a full S.M.A.R.T test on one of the failing drives of the NAS since around 1:30 AM.
The ETA was just a bit over 10 hours.
It's been stuck at 90% (granularity is only in 10% increments) since this morning at around 11:30.
Four of the new hard drives will be here tomorrow.
Will this thing finish it's test before then? Stay tuned... or don't.
Patrick Perdue
in reply to Patrick Perdue • • •Drive 1 of the first set of 4 has been physically replaced, and is now theoretically being integrated into the raid.
Too bad I can't figure out where to go in the stupid DSM web management interface to get status on that so I know when to replace the next drive, and email notifications are all still broken. A thing to fix the notification system requires a DSM update, which I don't want to do while it's repairing the raid.
Patrick Perdue
in reply to Patrick Perdue • • •The rest of the drives haven't shipped yet, though. Just replacing this one drive will buy me a little time, anyway.

in reply to Patrick Perdue • • •The rest of the initial set of four replacement drives showed up today, so I am now repairing the raid after replacing drive 8. Drives 6 and 4 will be replaced next, then, eventually, the other four, probably next month.
Worryingly though, it seems to think that drive 7, which I just replaced, has bad sectors. I'll scan it again after this is done. Maybe it's a holdover in the log somewhere from when the original drive 7 was basically unusable.
[>....................] recovery = 0.7% (43711056/5855691456) finish=1318.3min speed=73474K/sec
It's taking so long for each drive, because my storage pool is at 87% capacity.
Patrick Perdue
in reply to Patrick Perdue • • •As I suspected, drive 7 doesn't actually have any bad sectors.
The new drive 8 has now been fully integrated. 6 has now been replaced.
Only one more out of this set after this one. The next four, when I get them, will go faster.

in reply to Patrick Perdue • • •The last of the first set of four new hard drives for the NAS has now been replaced, and is currently processing.
After this, I get a level-up in the volume's storage capacity to 43.6 TB, which will increase again when I get the next set of four 12TB drives.
