Is the copied file going to a usb? Is the usb fake? Otherwise I’m pretty sure your source is bad. Probably the disk sector if you’re sure the file was at some point complete.

Something like btrfs probably does block cloning or similar so a copy to the same disk probably just points at the same disk blocks as the original.

ffmpeg -v error -i file.avi -f null - 2>error.log

Check the source probably

Mm, not quite, when say having 60+staff work in a single building model you need something that allows object locking so stag can work on part of a building and check it in and out.

I’m not the architect, I’m the sysadmin that designs and builds the server/network infrastructure for a half dozen architecture firms, some which have over 300 architects spread around Australia, Europe, and south East Asia. That mostly means running up servers to host BIM and BIM cache servers, as well as maintaining PIM servers.

To be honest I quizzed you because I honestly never heard of it and my life revolves around both revit and bim360, revit and revit self hosted bim servers, or archicad. Not that I do anything much in them, BIM managers generally administrate their own BIM instances and their teams. But some of the projects are in the billions of dollars that you’ll find on featured on the b1m YouTube channel.

Id argue that while the architects themselves are by and far the largest cost, the largest IT cost is the modelling software. I’ve even had some people using unreal engine to do parts of their work now especially for customer facing flythrough demonstrations and city view with time of day and all that.

So I’m pretty open minded to keeping my ears open to new software since I’m never sure what to expect. It would be interesting to see if it could ever be possible to do one of these megaprojects in open source. But my gut says it’s unlikely.

Does it connect to the same arcgis BIM servers so I can work with my coworkers, in real architecture projects?

I use Ubuntu, it’s the default for ROS. I tried debian but the instructions didn’t work instantly so I just as quickly gave up and went back to Ubuntu since I was busy. Lol.

I’m not in America but the organisation for NIST recommends it in guidance now and its getting backing by the nsa

I see this becoming required in the future for new projects and solutions when working for new governnent solutions. The drum is certainly beating louder in the media about it.

I love the hand gesture at the end!

Start realising that the way you’re used to scrolling with your mouse wheel, is a cog between you and the service it’s moving. Actually you were using natural all along. It was the early touch pads that were wrong and nonsense.

Traceroute.

Hi, I run pop! Os for about a year on a mac book pro 2012. My biggest hassles are Bluetooth audio sucks (glitchy) and I had to install a wireless driver to get wireless to work at all. Other than that, it’s working exactly as expected. Can recommend. It can’t game, it can’t play videos well because the inbuilt speakers suck (and the Bluetooth audio is glitchy), but it’s plenty performant for my actual tasks. Runs smooth. I’m sure most distributions will.

I think that’s a good idea, good luck with it!

I can guess at some things but let me first start with what I think is happening:

You have a gateway set. Your device sends a broadcast arp message asking 'who has ip ’ and the device with that ip is supposed to send back ‘me with this mac address!’.

That device is either sending it so slowly that your machine says ‘I can’t go past the gateway, the gateway isn’t responding’ which in your error message is no route to host.

Assuming that you have no custom manual network route in play.

So things that can cause that are usually link layer and layer two issues and sometimes duplicate IPs. Two devices with the gateway ip.

You should watch your mac address table and arp table (arp a) and watch if the router gateway disappears or changes Mac addresses.

Don’t feel bad because you’re really good at using a tool that doesn’t follow your values. I use Windows during the work week and I use Linux for gaming on the weekend where I literally can’t work even if I wanted to.

For me Windows is a tool box with propriatry tools that have no Linux compatibility. That’s OK for me. People get emotionally invested but that’s neither healthy nor helpful. No point being angry at work, it’s like being angry that your work uniform is made by one textiles vendor not the other.

You get to choose what you use at home in your own time. If you feel good using Linux then, do it!
