Yeah that’s what I’m doing but I played for the fast CPU and can’t make it the bottleneck ^^

Gehe, I wonder how well it would work ^^

I’ve been on Linux since 2002.

I just had a look, 2nd of April I payed 67,000 KRW for one 16 GB stick, now the same one (XPG DDR5 PC5-48000 CL30 LANCER BLADE White), they only sell them in pairs, a pair costs 470,000 KRW in the same shop, so 235,000 KRW per 16 GB stick. That is a price increase of 250%, god damn.

Two browsers full of tabs but that is not a problem, but once I start compiling AOSP (which I sometimes want to do for work at home instead in the cloud because it’s easier and faster to debugg) then it eats up all the RAM imediatelly and I have to give it 40 more GB or swap and then this swapping is the bottleneck. Once that is running the computer can’t really do anything else, even the browser struggles.

This is very unfortunate, about a year ago I built my PC and only put in 32 GB of Ram, It was double I had on my laptop so I thought it should be enough for the beginning and I could buy more later.

Already after 2 months I realizes I can do so much more because of the fast CPU in parallel but suddenly the amount of RAM became the bottleneck. When I looked at the RAM prices it didn’t seem quite worth it and I waited. But that backfired because since then the prices never went down, only up.

Is it designed by Hugo Boss?

It’s like saying:

I don’t care about morality, I only care about legality.

Yes: https://github.com/tt-rss/tt-rss

I’m also looking for something like that, I’m afraid of their closed source software. As a workaround right now I’m trying to move everything to some open source stuff which I can run in docker on that hardware.

Done.

Thanks for the downvotes.

Here is the app which chatgtp created: https://gist.github.com/jeena/9df0f9b59cec1225bed21223353c9137

And here is a video me using it: https://tube.jeena.net/w/b1nYhmdarbNMWcN18aUm4P

It took a bit longer because I had to bring my son to kindergarten in between.

It depends a bit on your operating system and your willingness to tinker a bit.
I myself would ask ChatGPT to create a application for that.

I heard he suggested to give Kimmel a ‘involuntary lethal injection’ or ‘just kill him’.

I use Radicale för it.

For now I feel disabling archives and my simple list of bots to drop in Nginx seems to work very well, it doesn’t create the archives anymore and the load went down also on the server.

Hm, but this only works on tmpfs which is in memory. It seems that with XFS I could have done it too: https://fabianlee.org/2020/01/13/linux-using-xfs-project-quotas-to-limit-capacity-within-a-subdirectory/ but I used ext4 out of habit.

For now I asked chatgtp to help me to implement a simple return 403 on bot user agent. I looked into my logs and collected the bot names which I saw. I know it won’t hold forever but for now it’s quite nice, I just added this file to /etc/nginx/conf.d/block_bots.conf and it gets run before all the vhosts and rejects all bots. The rest just goes normally to the vhosts. This way I don’t need to implement it in each vhost seperatelly.
