Does one good to be challenged (at least) occasionally.

I learned something new.

I stand corrected. Thanks for the heads up… Really wasn’t expecting that.

Apologies to OP. I don’t know how to reference users: marauding_gibberish142@lemmybdzero

In terms of physical connections you’ve said that the card needs the x4. Not sure what there is to say further.

Can’t get a 30 cm ruler into a 15 cm pencil case.

Maybe I’ve totally misunderstood your post.

I don’t think you do.

A x1 will fit in a x4 but not the other way around.

Sometimes: a laughing hyena.

If you don’t have tested backups, you don’t have a backup.

If you haven’t tested your backups, you ain’t got a backup.

systemd seems to like mounting stuff on /media. However, I would consult the Linux filesystem hierarchy documents around (eg. Wikipedia and then follow the references) for the most compatible place.

/srv /mnt tend to suggest themselves. /home is for your personal stuff not shared user wide stuff.

Don’t put stuff in local directories, leave it in a NAS location and mount it where you need it using fstab or auto/mount units and the appropriate filesystem. Maybe I’ve misunderstood something you wrote to think of this last bit.

There’s a change detection add-on for Firefox I use for websites which don’t have RSS feeds. Might work on that other thing.

SiteDelta Watch.

Syncthing is fast. I have an IPv6 setup too which seems to help.

I have my downloads directory on my desktop linked to a downloads directory on my Android; you can’t link to the real Android downloads directory anymore so I use another.

When the file is removed from the desktop downloads directory it disappears from mobile.

I tried using Bluetooth between them but it’s more fiddly than Syncthing with my config. Switch Bluetooth on on desktop, connect to desktop, send file, disconnect, move file. Whereas Syncthing is always on.

However, before I started using Obsidian notes I used to transfer URLs using Signal’s Note-to-self thing. Signal on both desktop and mobile.

Obviously, I sync between mobile and desktop Obsidian using Syncthing.

Don’t fill copy-on-write fs more that about 80%, it really slows down and struggles because new data is written to a new place before the old stuff is returned to the pool. Just sayin’.

I wouldn’t worry if you’re backed up. The SMART values and daemon will tell you if one is about to die.
