Put your SSD into this case and enjoy proper CD/DVD/BluRay emulation, multiple VHDs and much more.
EDIT: Not an ad, @Okus@lemmy.dbzer0.com . Just the only case that has all these features. And it’s no affiliate link, so I don’t even get anything if somebody clicks on it.
What makes you think there’s no way of updating the firmware? Also, they could be made so that there’s a simple API (like a serial device exposed via USB) and apps for Win/macOS/Linux to update the label. But I guess the demand was never there.
Same here. Like “Cold! Look elsewhere…” 🤣
It’s a shame these never took off. I’d love for my various USB drives to have displays that show their labels and maybe even contents.
What’s the big selling point compared to ranger

Rather use dd_rescue
as it’ll retry if it encounters any reading issue.
This! And I’d probably add par2 parity files - just in case some bitrot happens.
And it has repair tools that actually work and can make the filesystem usable again.
Back in the days we had these things. But I doubt this would work with USB-C adapters and a Steam Deck.
Most modern Intel chipsets support “Dual Role Device” (DRD) where they can act as host or client as needed.
Instagram for geeks. My geeky followers follow me there, the normal people are still on Instagram where I post the same.
I prefer RSS for this to not clutter my feed with these things and keep it “people-y” instead. For taking part in the discussion you need to head over to HN anyways. I’m using Leonid Shevtsov’s Hacker News Frontpage Digest Feed as it shows the first paragraph of the linked website and the top 3 comments at a glance. Then I can decide to go the website or directly to the comments on HN.
And if you don’t like this, there’s also Hacker News RSS.
I’ve never noticed any issues or long delays. My Raspberrys come up either way. Might take a bit longer if the NAS isn’t accessible - but they still come up. Only without the mounted shares, of course.
As an alternative, you could do the same using systemd.
NFS is fantastic from a practical standpoint.
Only if you don’t care about the NAS’es file permission management and have the same uid on all your systems mounting the same shares via NFS. Not sure if it’s different with other NAS implementations, but on my Synology DS415+ all files put on there via NFS get the UID from the source system. Which isn’t the UID of my user on the Synology.
E.g. on my Raspberrys, my user usually is uid 1000 / gid 1000. But on my Synology, my user is uid 1026 / gid 100. So the integrated management tools (e.g. File Station) show mangled permissions as the user with uid 1000 is not known.
And the only real solution to this is to use a Kerberos server - which I think is a bit overkill in a 1 user environment. idmap doesn’t really work on my NAS.
You can literally specify it in your fstab to mount the network share at boot.
Uh, the same is possible with any other file system, too.
//nas/share /mnt/whatever smb3 defaults,auto,username=bob,password=xxx 0 0
The key component is some cheap DVB-T receiver with an RTL2832U chip and an R820T tuner. These things usually costed around 15€ but went up now as I just found out. Maybe there’s a newer/better combination for cheap now.
Cut the small DVB-T antenna to 69mm length for optimal reception on 1090 MHz. Or build your own.
Then you need dump1090 which is the tool using the receiver and tuning it to 1090 MHz to receive the ADS-B packages and decode them. It’s providing the decoded packages in different formats on different ports (30002 - RAW / 30003 - SBS / 30005 - Beast mode).
And once this is running, you can just sign up to any ADS-B page, get your feeder ID, take their feeder software and point it to the correct port of dump1090. That’s basically it.
I’ve created my own custom minimalistic containers for dump1090, fr24feed, pfclient and piaware, but you can find universal ones on Docker Hub. The services I feed to are:
(Most of these sites give you premium access to their data in return.)
Oh, and if you live near waterways, this totally works for ships, too. It’s just a different frequency (~162 MHz), so you’d need a second DVB-T dongle and different antenna (46.3cm). And the dump1090-equivalent there is called AIS-catcher. With that, you can feed to sites like ShipXplorer, MarineTraffic, etc…
What you suggest sounds a lot like the “Briefcase” that was in Windows 9x. I don’t know of something similar, especially not something integrated into Linux.
The easiest way might be to setup SyncThing to share all of your different folders and then subscribe to those you need on your laptop. Just be aware that if you delete a file on your laptop it will also be deleted on your desktop on the next sync. Unsubscribe from the folder first before freeing up the disk space.
