Most will require you to just enter your user's password when mounting, that's it. Though, yes, your user has to be in the storage group, otherwise you might not get full read/write access (unless you mount with sudo manually that is), especially if it's a real disk, not a USB drive. Even physical discs comnected over USB usually have no problems with persmissions, but ones connected via SATA or M2, yeah, those can have permission read/write issues (user credentials required).
Also wise, though most distros don't do this: add your local user to the storage and networking groups. Makes setting things up a lot easier. Otherwise, you'd have to use root/sudo to do most of these things.
LVM has snapshot support � Is this a new thing?
ZFS and BTRFS also have other uses like RAID-like functionality and detecting and possibly correcting data corruption - with only one drive these features are not as useful though.
Yes they are. Regarding data integrity (bit rot or read/write errors) though. Regarding data backup, no.
BCacheFS is new to the mainline kernel and does much the same as ZFS and BTRFS, when distros start offering this as a supported option it's probably a good idea to use this, kind of unfinished at the moment though.
I think kernel support is planned for version 6.7... I think.
Yeah... compiling from source to get a kernel module loaded is a part of the past now. Though we still do it from time to time, for some obscure pieces of hardware (like my Microtek scanner π), but things just generally work out of the box.
It's not exactly backend. It's how UNIX like OSes work. Sooner or later, you're gonna have to learn this. The idea behind what @possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip said was (IMO) better have this in the back of your mind when it comes to Linux, cuz you're gonna need it sooner or later. Just keep it tucked away for when the time comes.
Gotta love those Indian dudes, always to the rescue π.
And they usually don't even monetize their channels, I mean, how cool is that. I think they do it for the heck of it, like why not.
The only thing I usually ROFL on is the way they speak π€£π€£π€£. But that's good as well, you get a good chuckle out of it while learning how to solve your problem π€£.
Is there π€? I've seen things in production you wouldn't believe. Rigs from the stone age, a 30+ year old DEC still running their version of UNIX and people saving files on tapes. Why? It's how it has always been done π€·. A firewall/router configured back in 2001 (no one's touched it ever since). An Ubuntu 12.4 install running a black box VM that no one knows what it's actually for, except that it was needed back in 2012 for something related to upgrading the network... so don't touch it cuz shit might stop working.
Trust me, I've seen homelabs that are far better maintained than real world production stuff. If you're talking about the 0.2% of companies/banks that actually take care of their infrastructure, they are the expection, not the norm.
Exactly why banks almost always use one form of a corporate UNIX based OS for this or that. Shit hits the fan --> blame the other guy. You can't do that with community based distros, even with Debian, they offer no guarantee whatsoever.
Me talking to Linus at gun point: You're gonna install Arch on that thing AND YOU'RE GONNA LIKE IT!!!
Seriously though, you have no idea how many times people have given me latops with Suse preinstalled and told me to install Windows on them. They just buy them because they're usually cheaper (no Windows license). They don't actually care that they're made to be Linux compatible. They could have FreeDOS or come completely blank for all they care. They just wanna have a working Windows install on their laptops.
No hardware supports it out of the box (standalone players), thus, it's not gonna happen for pirated content.
Plus, AV1 was nowhere near ready when x265 was in v2.x. It was open source, it had x in front of it (the logical successor to x264... name wise at least), it conformed fo the MPEG HEVC standard (in most things)... what was there not to like π€·. Pirates don't care about things like "but I have to pay royalties to use it in a commercial environment"... hence, why they're pirates.

That's why grep also exists π.
