Bind mounts aren’t specific to Docker. You’re asking specifically about bind mounts as used by Docker?

From my /etc/resolv.conf on Debian trixie, which isn’t using openresolv:

# Third party programs should typically not access this file directly, but only
# through the symlink at /etc/resolv.conf. To manage man:resolv.conf(5) in a
# different way, replace this symlink by a static file or a different symlink.

I mean, if you want to just write a static resolv.conf, I don’t think that you normally need to have it flagged immutable. You just put the text file you want in place of the symlink.

Also, when you talk about fsck, what could be good options for this to check the drive?

I’ve never used proxmox, so I can’t advise how to do so via the UI it provides. As a general Linux approach, though, if you’re copying from a source Linux filesystem, it should be possible to unmount it — or boot from a live boot Linux CD, if that filesystem is required to run the system — and then just run fsck /dev/sda1 or whatever the filesystem device is.

I’d suspect that too. Try just reading from the source drive or just writing to the destination drive and see which causes the problems. Could also be a corrupt filesystem; probably not a bad idea to try to fsck it.

IME, on a failing disk, you can get I/O blocking as the system retries, but it usually won’t freeze the system unless your swap partition/file is on that drive. Then, as soon as the kernel goes to pull something from swap on the failing drive, everything blocks. If you have a way to view the kernel log (e.g. you’re looking at a Linux console or have serial access or something else that keeps working), you’ll probably see kernel log messages. Might try swapoff -a before doing the rsync to disable swap.

At first I was under suspicion was temperature.

I’ve never had it happen, but it is possible for heat to cause issues for hard drives; I’m assuming that OP is checking CPU temperature. If you’ve ever copied the contents of a full disk, the case will tend to get pretty toasty. I don’t know if the firmware will slow down operation to keep temperature sane — all the rotational drives I’ve used in the past have had temperature sensors, so I’d think that it would. Could try aiming a fan at the things. I doubt that that’s it, though.

GPU prices are coming to earth

https://lemmy.today/post/42588975

Nvidia reportedly no longer supplying VRAM to its GPU board partners in response to memory crunch — rumor claims vendors will only get the die, forced to source memory on their own

If that’s true, I doubt that they’re going to be coming to earth for long.

Prices rarely, if ever, go down in a meaningful degree.

Prices on memory have virtually always gone down, and at a rapid pace.

https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/historical-cost-of-computer-memory-and-storage

If consumers aren’t going to or are much less likely to upgrade, then that affects demand from them, and one would expect manufacturers to follow what consumers demand.

I remember when it wasn’t uncommon to buy a prebuilt system and then immediately upgrade its memory with third party DIMMs to avoid paying the PC manufacturer’s premium on memory. Seeing that price relationship becoming inverted is a little bonkers. Though IIRC Framework’s memory-on-prebuilt-systems didn’t have much of a premium.

I also wonder if it will push the market further towards systems with soldered memory or on-core memory.

You can have applications where wall clock tine time is not all that critical but large model size is valuable, or where a model is very sparse, so does little computation relative to the size of the model, but for the major applications, like today’s generative AI chatbots, I think that that’s correct.

Last I looked, a few days ago on Google Shopping, you could still find some retailers that had stock of DDR5 (I was looking at 2x16GB, and you may want more than that) and hadn’t jacked their prices up, but if you’re going to buy, I would not wait longer, because if they haven’t been cleaned out by now, I expect that they will be soon.

Took down Framework’s website, which I was using.

Just keep in mind that the long run trend for storage prices is pretty strongly downwards; that’s a log-scale graph.

IRC, though you’ll want to use it over TLS.

XMPP, which someone else listed, is also good if you want a more instant-message-like interface.

is a pain in the assn

is dependent on 3rd parties

Well, one of the two, at any rate.

Eventually, I expect that advanced AI will. The same is true for many human professions. But I’m dubious that pure LLMs will be the route this takes. Too many limitations.

It’s possible that such an advanced AI might make use of or incorporate LLMs.

when I started using vim mode in zsh.

I’m an emacs user myself, but if you’re not aware, readline — which handles a considerable portion of the “prompt for text” stuff in many terminal programs, like input for bash and such — can be put into vi mode.

https://tiswww.case.edu/php/chet/readline/rluserman.html#Readline-vi-Mode

In order to switch interactively between emacs and vi editing modes, use the command M-C-j (bound to emacs-editing-mode when in vi mode and to vi-editing-mode in emacs mode). The Readline default is emacs mode.

When you enter a line in vi mode, you are already placed in ‘insertion’ mode, as if you had typed an ‘i’. Pressing ESC switches you into ‘command’ mode, where you can edit the text of the line with the standard vi movement keys, move to previous history lines with ‘k’ and subsequent lines with ‘j’, and so forth.

Or, in ~/.inputrc:

set editing-mode vi

To set the default.

I use emacs’s magit for git stuff (the bulk of things) and emacs’s ediff for most other things.

Good if you know emacs, but hard to recommend using it for someone who doesn’t.

EDIT: Oh, one exotic utility that’s useful for some rare cases, not really for interactive merging of code — wdiff for word-level diffing. Most code can reasonably be diffed on a line-by-line basis, but that’s not true for some text formats, which can have very long lines. Human, natural language in text format, is one good example.

No problem. Yeah, it’s an invaluable off-site resource that new users don’t get informed about. Indexes all of the Threadiverse instances, whereas any given instance can only search the communities that are local or at least one local user has subscribed to.

You might just ask your question and see if someone can answer it, even if they don’t specifically use that combination. I don’t think that there’s any deep integration between the two.
