  • Get yourself a broker to do the selling for you.

  • Why is the public domain (in terms of intellectual property) useful?
  • It's supposed to be an exchange between the public and artists. The overall purpose is to increase the amount of art available to everyone. Artists get legal protection for a limited time to be able to monetise it. And in exchange the public gets full access to the art after that time is up.

  • Ram in use after suspend issue
  • Can you see with top or ps what program is eating up all the RAM? Probably some bug you may report.

  • The Last of Us Part II Remastered is Steam Deck Verified
  • Does the first game finally run well on the Deck? Or is this as verified as Spider-Man 2?

  • Are color palettes subject to copyright protection?
  • In Germany at least it's not copyright but a thing called "taste patent". As far as I know it can cover colors, shapes and probably literal taste as well. But it's not automatic like copyright. It's more similar to trademarks.

    [Solved] How can I free space in BTRFS?

    Edit 2: Through all of my shenanigans I ended up on a read-only snapshot for root. The error I got just seemed similar to previous out-of-space errors. I went to a later snapshot as default and everything is working great!

    My OpenSUSE Tumbleweed is wonky since I last did a dist-upgrade with about 4000 packages. Midway through it errord out with an error that indicated that the filesystem was full althou df showed plenty of free space.

    BTRFS seemed to be the culprit. Removing snapshots let me continue the upgrade until it errored out again. Rinse and repeat until it was done.

    Edit: My root subvolume is read only. So there must be some error in that. The other subvolumes work correctly. So I guess it isn't about free space after all.

    But now the BTRFS seems to be almost full and I cannot update anymore.

    ... Checking for file conflicts: .....................[done]error: can't create transaction lock on /usr/lib/sysimage/rpm/.rpm.lock (Read-only file system) ( 1/40) Removing: ovpn-dco-kmp-default-0.2.202412[error]Removal of (76899)ovpn-dco-kmp-default-0.2.20241216~git0.a08b2fd_k6.13.7_1-2.2.x86_64(@System) failed: Error: Subprocess failed. Error: RPM failed: Command exited with status 1. Abort, retry, ignore? [a/r/i] (a): Problem occurred during or after installation or removal of packages: Installation has been aborted as directed. Please see the above error message for a hint.

    I've tried a full balance but that didn't even seem to help. So I suspect that the space is caught up in snapshots, but I can't delete them.

    Thursday Triumphs

    What went well for you? Today or this week. No matter how small, let's celebrate the good things in our lives!

    I'll try to post this regularly.

    I started a website to collect all my late grandmother's art. She made great paintings and collected other great art. I hope my relatives will help me in getting photos and descriptions. So far they all like the idea but nobody except for my sister in law sent in any photos. Hopefully that will change in the next few days.

    For anyone curious it's at https://brigitte-tantau.de/.

    My disability got boosted to the next level which means more money and it will be easier to organise transportation should I need to go anywhere. And I think applications for future stuff will get easier.

    Take that, lady who wrote I could wash my hair because I could lift my hand above my head once!

    Is there a German 7B Vision Model?

    I'd like something to describe images for me and also recognise any text contained in them. I've tried llama3. 2-vision, llava and minicpm-v but they all get the text recognition laughably wrong.

    Or maybe I should lay my image recognition dreams to rest with my measly 8 GB RAM card.

    Edit: gemma3:4b is even worse than the others. It doesn't even find the text and hallucinates others.

    Does oxaloacetate reduce ME/CFS fatigue?

    Summary of the latest study on oxaloacetate, a food supplement found in nutmeg among others. The supplement is pretty expensive.

    I've been taking 1000 mg per day for about a month and haven't noticed any change. I think I will raise that to 2000 mg when my current bottle is empty and then decide if I will keep taking it. Currently not very optimistic.

    Why is my pict-rs writing data?

    In my quest to tame my pict-rs instance I've disabled thumbnail proxying, deleted all thumbnails and images not uploaded by me and still the files folder is several GB big. And growing.

    I am the only user of my instance. But iotop shows constant disc activity for pict-rs. It's writing stuff at about 1 MB/s. The webserver logs only show my own activity and occasionally someone requesting an image. But not nearly enough to explain this constant activity.

    When I'm looking at the actual files at random it seems to be mostly memes and stuff, but not what I uploaded myself.

    Does anyone have an idea how I can find out what is causing all this activity?

    Edit: I've opened an issue at https://git.asonix.dog/asonix/pict-rs/issues/79

    I'm currently migrating pictrs' database from sled to PostgreSQL and even during that it seems to be constantly writing data to sled. Doesn't feel right to me.
