The CLI refused the specific kind of disk IDs I used (it turns out I had to give it the full path for some reason) and I assumed that I had to add the disk as a new device
<dery>
I should have absolutely not done that
<dery>
and uhhh
<dery>
shut down everything
<dery>
and uhhh
<dery>
corruption
<dery>
luckily I have one (1) crappy backup with half of the important data in it (I perpetually postponed the other half)
<dery>
so uhhh lost quite some stuff
<dery>
but now I can store 4 TBs wahoo
<dery>
oh I already wrote that I fucked up
<dery>
yea as you can tell it was recoverable but I should have really not unplugged the new disk and rebooted the thing
<dery>
but I think I restored most of the essential data and services so here I am
<midfavila>
this is a certified kiss linux sysadmin moment
<midfavila>
speaking of computer shit have any of you seen silverstone's haha funny meme case
<midfavila>
considering reddit is basically the modern equivalent of usenet, being able to strip away all of the shit that sucks about the site could actually make me tolerate it enough to use it...
<midfavila>
then again, considering there was that debacle about paywalling APIs, it might not work any more, in which case boo
<midfavila>
looks like it uses libcurl
<midfavila>
i have to wonder if, once i restart and hopefully finish work on apport, i could implement some sort of minimal drop-in replacement library
<midfavila>
or, failing that, patch some stuff to use apport
<midfavila>
man computers are cool
<midfavila>
i wish there were more hours in the day
<midfavila>
this is the sort of stuff that makes me want to tinker more often out of legitimate interest instead of seething incompetent rage
<midfavila>
holy shit
<midfavila>
it still works
<midfavila>
that's wild
<midfavila>
thanks taviso
<kris_>
I LOVE JQ
<kris_>
that is all
<midfavila>
first i steal his fvwm config and now i steal his reddit to nntp gateway
<midfavila>
how can one man have such good taste in software
<sewn>
because it works best for both simple uses and complex uses

has written a 30-line jq expression and it still makes no sense to her

wait sewn from what I see jaq is a jq reimplementation
<dery>
it should have the same syntax
<dery>
I've heard of yq but I really don't like the fact that it mashes all those different formats toghether
<sewn>
probably better syntax
<sewn>
dery: doesn't make sense to me why you would think that
<sewn>
it costs very little for something like that
<dery>
no they all have different quirks
<sewn>
what, you wanna have each tool have each syntax and each installed?
<sewn>
and remember all of them?
<dery>
I'd at most convert between them
<dery>
doesn't take much
<sewn>
but anyway json is only useful youre not gonna be doing more
<dery>
yea that too
<dery>
json is used for 99% of interchange I'd reckon, the rest are used for other stuff like config
<dery>
btw regarding jaq
<dery>
> I drew inspiration from another Rust program, namely jql. However, unlike jql, jaq aims to closely imitate jq's syntax and semantics. This should allow users proficient in jq to easily use jaq.
<dery>
there are differences but it's akin from the various awk flavors I'd say
<dery>
Damn if Debian has good offline installs
<dery>
time to make a Trixie blu-ray and jigdo can update my old image
<dery>
and they even make images with source code
<dery>
that's some very resilient infrastructure
