well the homelab would be for my nas, and all kinds of services, media storage, and for any compute intensive tasks, I just wonder if it becomes a bit useless to go to the lengths of librebooting a Thinkpad when the problem I am solving is still present on other hardware I use. I suppose this is more a philosophical question

Sounds like spending a lot of time for little gain unless you really want to make a homelab.

>What would you guys suggest?
If you just have a Samsung TV, then you need to do something else, which is easy and takes you only a few minutes to set up.

1. Install Kodi on your PC and set up the built-in DLNA server shown here: https://kodi.wiki/view/Settings/Services/UPnP_DLNA and point Kodi to your videos folder on your PC

2. Turn on you Samsung TV and look for the Kodi DLNA server. Now you can play all the videos from your PC's Kodi DLNA server on your TV.

OR

1. Install https://www.universalmediaserver.com/ and point it to your videos and set it up.

2. Turn on your Samsung TV and look for the Universal Media Server DLNA server and you can now play your PC's videos on your TV.

You can do either of these right now with little effort. Try it now.

>You lose 50% of the storage space since all data is duplicated

Yup that makes sense, I meant more like hypothetically if I had a pool of storage using RAID, the usage size is limited to the smallest drive in the pool. From what I've read so far that's only the case for stuff like RAID5, etc.? Like I said I only plan on using raid1 on identical drive sizes.

In regards to btrfs: I assume that'd it'd use the matching drives (8+8) (16+16) as raid 1 pairs, and present the pair as individual devices that are then added to the pool for 24tb total, but I figured I would ask to be 100% sure.

>>107735848
>btrfs has a lot fewer restrictions about adding new disks and rotating out old ones out
I think I'll do btrfs then.

>>107735848
>it's not out of tree
I didn't know what this meant so I googled it.
Is the issue here mainly that the out of tree module developers are at the whim of the upstream kernel developers, and shit can break at any time? So BTRFS would just be more reliable since Debian supports it naturally?

I recently bought a windows 8 era laptop with a pretty bad pentium and 4gb of ram. I was wondering what distro would be the best purely on the basis of getting the most performance out of the laptop. I'm basically a complete novice at using linux, but windows 10 ltsc isnt cutting it so I figured its time to branch out and try something new.

>>107736569
start with Mint XFCE

>>107736577
Don't do this, Mint is extremely cumbersome
>>107736569
You've got more than enough horsepower for any distro with the KDE Plasma 6 desktop environment, which will give you basically the Windows GUI except without eating up all your RAM. If you're not interested in tinkering, there's several choices! The question is what sort of update frequency do you want?
>I want updates very, very, very rarely
Go with Debian KDE
>I want updates maybe once a week or month
Go with Manjaro KDE
>I want updates ASAP
CachyOS if and only if your CPU supports x86_64_v3

I too had to install Linux on an old laptop and worried that I needed to install a lightweight distro. So I did, only to discover I had a comically large amount of headroom lol. Windows trains you into believing your hardware is inadequate when it is not. So I put a Plasma distro on this bitch and it's been smooth sailing ever since. In the Linux world, lightweight doesn't mean it'll run on a 10yo laptop, but a 20yo laptop, so I doubt you will find yourself stretched thin on the CPU side with Plasma. But if that does end up being the case, consider using the Xfce desktop environment instead.

There's multiple ways. First is this from the website; you paste this into the terminal and you are done:

sudo dnf install dnf-plugins-core

sudo dnf config-manager addrepo --from-repofile=https://brave-browser-rpm-release.s3.brave.com/brave-browser.repo

sudo dnf install brave-browser

The second way is you download the Brave Flatpak from your preferred app store. I believe there may also be an .rpm installers you can download from the GitHub, but don't quote me on that.

t. ReactOS and wine developer

File: kanjiforkike.png (137 KB, 1194x296)

137 KB PNG

Just so we're clear. The only reason ReactOS exists is for testing shit we want to add to wine. The only reason wine gets any development is because a few of us want to ensure we can continue running eroge and VNs that are no longer supported by modern versions of Windows.

I repeat: We do not give two fucks about your AAA games or shit like photoshop. If something like that does run after you pull in a bunch of .dlls it's a happy accident.

We don't even care about Linux if I'm being honest. I only continue working on wine because it still works on NetBSD and FreeBSD. Mostly the first because that's what my friends overseas that hook me up with old discs for testing run on their machines that aren't old PC-98 clones.

I hope I haven't broken your spirit.

Bitshift all system storage by non-consequtive prime numbers determined by a hash function that is derived from a random sampling of Lou Reed's Metal Machine Music (1975), and the unused bits are a write-off for implementation simplicity.

Rather not dox myself, so no screencaps. Hell, even their faq channel ends with it saying that if any issue is encountered and WAI is the checkpoint, then ditch WAI. Not a good selling point but I have been sticking with the CFG at 5 and steps at 25, which makes batch gens come out a little faster. Though while I'm here, I'd like a second opinion on prompt order and prompt mixing. They say the former has no bearing on the final result, while the latter varies. "short black hair" in lieu of "short hair, black hair" is bad while replacing "pleated skirt, white skirt" with "white pleated skirt" sometimes works but my experiences tell me it radically depends more on the LoRA. Without any character LoRA and relying solely on the checkpoint, I can gen miniskirts true micro skirts without issue. Throw in a character LoRA and even "sling bikini top" is a crapshoot with most character LoRAs, which is a pet peeve considering what I'm trying to do.

>>107736353
i believe it depends solely on how the data was captioned. i remember that angel (illustrious creator) said they condensed redundant tags for illustrious, so black hair and long hair would be long black hair or black long hair (cant remember which). the lora creator probably just used a danbooru auto tagger and didnt condense the tags

>>107736415
Incidentally, the tutorial I used to create my LoRAs (all three of them and only the first breached triple digits for some reason) also suggested to condense tags where applicable, but mainly in regards to color "red jacket" instead of "jacket" if the jacket is red, for example. However, that's only due to those condensements already being accounted for in both the autotagger and Danbooru itself. Once I get back to LoRA training I'd like to see if "long black hair" or something similar that doesn't exist on Danbooru imrpoves or mucks up the final result. The tagging process is said to be the most important (albeit tedious) part of making a LoRA, tied with ensuring the dataset itself isn't garbage. Peeking at the metadata of some LoRAs, I suspect the datasets used are disproportionately R34 inclined at best. If I must agree with them on one thing, it's that a LoRA must be accurate to the source but flexible as well. Give someone big ol bitties or iron them into a washboard if you must, but don't make that the first pic in the showcase. Gives a false impression.
