Did you ever see the movie Holes (2003)?

Gotta find something to sell to stay afloat. Why not user data? /s

Tesco in the uk does this.

Coincidentally enough this post a few down from yours (on my feed) shows a trial for the second part of your post

Honestly depends on whats being served. As i say people can run servers on enterprise grade multi thousand £ systems or a £50 pi or mini pc.

Since you have a specific usage in mind, media server, you basically want hardware that will allow optimised performance so you can have a lag/ buffer free experience.

Say,

hardware thats good for on the fly encoding/ decoding

Lots of ram for multitasking.

Lots of storage to store the media.

Maybe gigabit network cards for multiuser streaming without bandwidth bottlenecks.

It really depends on the experience and chokepoints

ECC ram ill let someone more familiar answer but im leaning towards non critical and nice to have

Nothing you couldnt upgrade on your typical PC. Just makes life easier…at a cost.

Server serves a specific application(s). PC is general day to day usage.

Both are computers. Pc hardware can be used as a server. Server hardware can be used as a pc.

Using a computer for day to day tasks - call it a pc. Use it to run a web server application or host a game - that one or more users will access - call it a server

Hardware can be configured to optimise it for its function. E.g pc can have latest GPUs and “servers” can have multicore cpus and loads of ram, rack mounting form factor and dual power supplies for redundancy.

But it could also be weak - i have raspberry pi’s and old laptops set up as a servers

Good on you and props to your parents :)

I just wanted to chime in that “nazi” isn’t technically a swear.

Sure, calling someone one when they aren’t (some willingly people wear the name with pride) can be hurtful, but in the context you’ve used it I’d say it’s OK.

Just my opinion though

I’m in the same boat… have made a model of my house in SH3D and sketchup in the past. Have since tried doing it in freecad but it really is a struggle but im persevering. Hopefully one day it’ll just “click” but its a major time sink atm so im putting it off

FreeCAD has a BIM workbench but a fair warning - the learning curve is pretty steep, especially compared to the likes of SH3D and Sketchup

GPL licence under the licences page on their website. Code is on sourceforge i think

They meant they cant “WEAR” the sticker because its already been stuck on the paper it came with

Understand its not your fault and you shouldnt blame the world. Everyone goes through this at some point (esp guys) - be it skinny, fat, coloured or not, tall or short. Everyone has their preferences.

Giving up on actively finding a girlfriend is probably the best thing to do in your situation - but not out of spite - some women find an attractiveness in someone who has fun in their own presence. People want to be a part of that joy. Being bitter will only drive away friends and potential relationships.

With that said, do your own thing. If being skinny bothers you (and you alone, not what anyone else thinks), hit the gym and eat more? Try more activites either solo or with friends. Maybe even some extreme sports which a partner would otherwise not join you in. Just enjoy life and someone will come. I know people who found relationships in the most unexpected of times and places.

I understand theres an inch in the intimate department that cant be scratched with just normal friendships but idk, resist tbe urge or find other outputs to bring your urges back down enough so you can just be you and comfortable

Why you decided to ask this question whilst hypothetically in the shower, im not sure i want to know

I find if I have NTFS problems, throw it back on windows, do a disk repair then come back to Linux.

Also remember to fully shut down (not sleep or hibernate) windows before removing the disk so windows doesn’t lock up anything

Edit: the error actually tells you the latter of what I mentioned… So back to windows you go for a shutdown before removal

Most people have answered doing a rollback is the best way. I usually find some updates break things then later updates dont have the issues.

But I wanted to add if you go in to yast snapshots and double click a snapshot you can actually select specific changes to rollback via checkboxes. I’ve not tried this yet though because of dependencies and whatnot

Are you saying the drive still shows up on the side as ejectable? Or the mount directory is still there?

If the latter what directory is it mounted to? May just be as simple as deleting that directory if its empty. (Assuming its like /media/xxx/ or /mnt/yyy/)

Check with lsblk command if anything is in those directories
