I’m out of the loop. What did he do?

Don’t buy lto5. Lto6 is the sweet spot right now.

I can buy lto6 drives on ebay for 250ish. Tapes are like 15-25 bucks each.

My guess is the cleanup process is running as root and clobbers anything it sees regardless of permissions. But that’s a guess. I’ve never tried keeping long term data in tmp.

You have two things happening at once.

First. There a process that cleans up tmp files according to a configuration. Yours is probably set to clean files older than a day.

https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/latest/tmpfiles.d.html for more information

Second, As to the folder. Docker will create a folder with the bind mount’s name if it’s not found. So Docker tries to find your promethius file, doesn’t find it, then creates a folder with that name and mounts it instead.

You should move the files out of tmp. That’ll solve all your problems.

Snapdrop if they both have a gui/webbrowser. https://github.com/SnapDrop/snapdrop

Scp otherwise

No. It’s a weekend job that implements only the tiny subset of features I care about.

Nextcloud Talk

It’s great. Been using it for years. Even wrote my own bridge that integrates beautifully with their first party ones.

Finished setting up an email server and am now looking into a matrix nextcloud bridge. Doesn’t seem to exist, so I guess I’m writing one.

They’re still a few on .ml claiming Gaza/Palestinians are better under trump. Absolutely nothing will convince them otherwise
