13/09/2021 (things i learned)
- ugh read up before making assumptions, raspberry pi 2 cannot boot from external harddrive :/ eh i did try to boot from usb before ugh cant even remember what u did last time
- storage is fun and interesting, I think i almost know what file systems and partitions are (ext4, ntfs, fat32)
- btw... cloud-init, network-config, cloud init, network config
- zettabyte era https://blogs.cisco.com/sp/the-zettabyte-era-officially-begins-how-much-is-that, "If each Gigabyte in a Zettabyte were a brick, 258 Great Walls of China (made of 3,873,000,000 bricks) could be built."
- youtube-dl scraped tiktok data is stressing me out, takes up sooo much space and its so wrong and incomplete but some ppl may have deleted stuff alr and it may be the last place on earth which hasnt lost the entropy for (ok that's dumb, but i gotta analyse first which is useless which isnt before deleting)
- Organizing storage satisfying af tho, but very humility-ing that i can never do it perfectly, wait.. humiliating comes from humility??? wtf?
- alphago documentary, a little cringe but not too bad surface introduction. im not their target audience + it's full of colonizer sentiments
- sabah sarawak separationism IS STILL A THING~ Not bad,
- Is there a term for newly independent nation states being colonizers themselves? Malaysia, Indonesia... Who else? Obviously it's much more nuanced but i still think they could be categorized based on its extractive features
- wow separationism is complicated af, so much to think about so little to do about
- https://voxeu.org/article/what-s-worth-knowing-economics-global-survey-among-economists
- old people probably love hearing their language spoken by others, watching Ria Ricis and seeing the old woman laugh when they speak Acehnese
- you'd think editing grammar on wikipedia was simple except you actually need to know about the topic cuz sometimes it's too ambiguous to edit. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dubbing_(filmmaking)#Indonesia
- Unit tests for refactoring! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_refactoring#Testing
- miss my little home under the table
- hmm am i being rate limited by youtube?
software bugs:
- firefox drags tab to new window when I didn't mean to wayy more often than i expect.
- vlc seeking (i should try out the new beta version)
- vlc volumes and brightness indicator goes away too slowly, newpipe better
- Tracker Control freaked out abit for a short while, only Ecosia could connect to the internet
[missing feature] Librera PRO cannot highlight text... :(
[missing feature] Many audio recorders do not support FLAC
software appreciation:
- df . works splendidly for harddisks
- gparted, transferring files, all worked super smoothly given no megacorp behind it
- firefox remembers my zoom options
