  • Well all i can say is that every time my bike was stolen it was locked with a heavy duty chain, or in a locked basement, or in a locked cage-room in the basment so the thieves have no chill. My biggest mistake was probably that it wasnt locked to an immovable solid pole in the ground but you cannot always find that whereever you need to park, and a thin bikerack that is the only thing you can find in the city is so easy to cut open for thieves that they’ll cut that instead of the lock so no lock will help here either. Thieves are lazy so making it look like it’ll take hours to make the bike resellable is the only true option together with a heavy duty chain like the abus city chain x-plus


  • This is drastisc i know, but it works: lots of electrical tape spray paint, coffee grounds, sawdust and more spray paint. Be sure to tape/paint over all brand names and emblems so the bike looses its identity. Put random pieces of ducttape on a few cables and gear changer. Never wash it and always leave it a bit dusty. Basically make it look like garbage and not worth the effort. It should look unsellable. I did this after having 3 bikes stolen within a year. Now i can hopefully have it a bit longer. Protip: use foil paint /plastic dip so its technically reversible.








  • As soon as my autocorrect is contaminated with spelling errors I’m doomed. For some reason when spelling a word wrong just twice or thrice it’s automatically added to the dictionary which is so stupid. So in reality it’s not me spelling it wrong because I’m ignorant, it’s because autocorrect does not actually correct me when I need it and it’s teaching me back my own mistakes. I have the same issue with the word “very” that I spell “verry” because it got into the dictionary once and I never knew it was wrong until much later and I had alread learned the muscle memory. Who was supposed to teach me anyway at this point. I’m far past school.



  • RaidZ er nu fantastisk.
    Og et praktisk setup er med en SSD cache til at forbedre skrive hastigheden men også læsehastighed for de mest brugte filer. Se billede herunder, med 6 HDD har du op til 4x læsehastighed

    At bruge HDD er helt normalt i sådan et setup da flaskehalsen alligevel altid vil være din internetforbindelse. Selv med 1000Mbit kan du med blot en enkelt HDD udnytte hele hastigheden.

    [Seagate ironwolf] Higher capacity drives deliver up to 7,200 RPM spin speed along with sustained data rates up to 180 MB/s and burst data rates of 6 Gb/s.

    180MB/s = 1440 Mb/s


  • Nu aner jeg ikke hvad det koster at købe terabytes hos en hosting service, men en stak HDD’s koster ikke alverden i dag, 12TB for ~2000kr, 6 stk med zfs vil give ca 48 TB brugbar plads med mulighed for at midste op til 2 HDDs. Med ca 100GB om måneden vil det tage pænt lang tid at fylde op. Det var blot et eksempel, men det kan jo sagtens gøres billigere. Er det overhovedet en løsning at selvhoste det eller er det at helt urealistisk. Vil godt være med til at sponsorere noget hardware, men det skal jo selvfølgelig give mening. Man kan sikkert også købe pænt meget plads for de samme penge, men som først sagt så aner jeg ikke hvad det koster i sammenligning.
