I personally didn't dislike NuGet that much, but that's coming from someone who has been working with CMake for the last couple of months ๐Ÿ˜„

TLDR: Rust, Go and other modern languages don't use more dependencies than C/C++, but have larger binaries due to including libraries into the executable binary. This trade-off was chosen to ensure you can reliably run the executable on various systems without dependency issues.

I personally have gone with both options on several occasions. Being able to include an HTTP client without having to debug someone's cURL installation is certainly worth a few extra MiB's of disk space. However, I've also used C instead of Rust to avoid a very simple CLI program turning into several MiB's large binary (due to statically including the Rust std lib).

I do have some issues with read speeds but that's probably networking related or due to using RAID5.

Why? It seems on topic to me

Why did you decide to go with Rakulang?

According to EICAR's specification the antivirus detects the test file only if it starts with the 68-byte test string and is not more than 128 bytes long. As a result, antiviruses are not expected to raise an alarm on some other document containing the test string.

This won't work, assuming the database file is more than 128 bytes long

What do you do? (You don't need to be specific)

[โ€“] qaz@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The choice is yours. Would you like to be the sickest law-abiding citizen, or the healthiest BioTerrorist?

It's a joke about the criticism systemd gets

Well, the post is literally called "bioterroism rule(s)", so it's not strange that they feel like you're implying that.

I was talking about branch names, not file names. File duplicates due to case sensitivity aren't a problem on Windows anyway because those are already enforced by the file system. Unless you have people working on Linux that have multiple files with a similar name but with different casing but those should know better.

 

I currently have a 1 TiB NVMe drive that has been hovering at 100 GiB left for the past couple months. I've kept it down by deleting a game every couple weeks, but I would like to play something sometime, and I'm running out of games to delete if I need more space.

That's why I've been thinking about upgrading to a 2 TiB drive, but I just saw an interesting forum thread about LVM cache. The promise of having the storage capacity of an HDD with (usually) the speed of an SSD seems very appealing, but is it actually as good as it seems to be?

And if it is possible, which software should be used? LVM cache seems like a decent option, but I've seen people say it's slow. bcache is also sometimes mentioned, but apparently that one can be unreliable at times.

Beyond that, what method should be used? The Arch Wiki page for bcache mentions several options. Some only seem to cache writes, while some aim to keep the HDD idle as long as possible.

Also, does anyone run a setup like this themselves?
