Hey #Adelaide live-music go-ers. A friend and I have just launched this: https://adlgigs.au
It's a platform for musicians to reach fans - via email. No algorithm getting in the way. You can subscribe to bands (when they register) directly, or you can subscribe to genres.
When a band of a genre emails our robot, Marvin, Marvin checks who is subscribed to that genre, and to the band directly, and Marvin passes on the email to you. It's a simple system that I hope will work well.
It's free. Always will be. We'll try to keep it ad free. There will be a ko-fi link at some point.
Are you in a band? Why not register yourself here: https://adlgigs.au/for-bands
Anyone had luck with rendering 360-camera videos in Linux?
@NewtonMark@eigenmagic.net Plug Google search back in and power it on.
Hey fellow nerds.
How do you handle large-ish volume backups between Linux hosts? About 1TB of data. Source has 100Mbps upload. Receiving end is Gbit.
Incrementals will be essential, since full backup is nearly a day's worth of upload.
FOSS suggestions only at this stage. It's currently performing backups put of my control with Veeam and I'm a bit nervous about the whole situation being out of my hands.
Give me a music recommendation. I can't just keep listening to Emma Ruth Rundle and Thou's The Valley over and over again. (I can, but maybe shouldn't...)
@decryption@aus.social Has Anna already done it, maybe?
Again I grew a partition to the left. Successfully. Partition managers sure have improved in the last...30 years. #nerdery
@Karolina@mastodonsweden.se Ny parfymtrend, kanske?
@rmgr@peoplemaking.games Hrm. Let me investigate. Can you dm me the first few letters of the email account used?

@kauer@aus.social Thank you - I'll make rsync work. It's what I've been using for the last few weeks since I started getting cold feet about the Veeam backup. But was wondering if there might be a better thing. Probably not!
Replying to
@kauer@aus.social This is a good question. I think 'better' for me at the moment is some sort of versioning where I can choose the state of the directory in a specific time.
Replying to
@DrHyde@fosstodon.org Snapshots is an interesting idea. But moving those snapshots offsite is pretty significant when it comes to bandwidth, yes?
Replying to
@aarbrk@mstdn.mx Yeah, rsync is great. But it doesn't (as far as I'm aware) do versioning as such.
