  • My data is a raid5 (Linux MD raid) on top of which I have btrfs partition. They are 4 dad’s.

    I have another raid5 on USB mechanical disks again MD raid5 + btrfs, which is my 1st level backup.

    Os, Gentoo Linux, is on an nvme ext4, going to migrate to btrfs when I have time.

    Server is a Ryzen 9 with 64gb ram that I also use for AI inference thanks to two Nvidia RTX A4000. Currently one on PCIe 16x and one on pcie 4x. I am waiting for a pci-e bifurcation card to move both cards on 8x 8x pcie bus… Splitting my CPU bound 16x lanes in two…

    Edit: I host lost of stuff… Mostly on bare metal or podman rootless…

    Check out my wiki at https://wiki.gardiol.org/ where I keep track of what i install and how.








  • I have heard lots of stupid things, and this is in the top ten indeed.

    The first stupiditt is that people who use AI,.don’t use it all the time. So no not all their respondes are generated.

    The second stupidity is that using AI means they use it to generate responses. Maybe they only use it to gather information or automate work tasks.

    And the third stupidity is that using AI means you don’t also use your brain, thus “no conscience”.

    Applying the same logic, people who read books are NPCs too because all their responses are generated, no conscience there, just sentences taken from books.

    /s just in case (referring to books)







  • Many.

    The last part of the EagleXMan 113 extreme triathlon race, the 6km 1100m elevation gain part of the race, where I passed over ten other people.

    When my mother died, and my at the time SO choosed to go to a work meeting instead of staying with me.

    When I crossed my first Ironman finish line, at Tallinn, under severe storm, at night.

    When my mother, I was maybe 8, gave me a bad scold after I said the word fuck in front of her (never happened again…)

    The time I was on top of a live vulcano looking down at the magma boiling and rocks being fired up in the sky just near me, then we run down the side trying to flee to safety.

    The first time I saw my soon to be child (my wife’s son) he was three and I thought damn that’s SMALL… :)

    And I am sure many more







  • Markdown is not a standard.

    And if you think html is a mess, wait to see css.

    Sorry but complexity is part of evoluted and complex systems. There is always room for a more simple solution as well, but as far as the problem is complex, the solution can hardly be simpler that the problem itself

    Maybe the problem is not formulated correctly, of course.
