Pop_OS shows me the size of the partition incorrectly
  • Thanks for pointing me into this direction.

    When I use an online calculator to convert Gibibytes to Gigabytes, I get this result: 634.8 GiB are 682 GB. So, exactly the size that the Gnome-Disk-Utility shows.

    The App Stacer tells me 624.2 GiB. When I convert this into Gigabytes, I get 670.3 GB. This size is also shown in the Pop_OS file manager.

    So, in conclusion:

    • fdisk command and Gnome disk utility are showing 634.8 GiB / 682 GB.
    • Stacer and file manager are showing 624.2 GiB / 670.3 GB.

    One step closer... Now I just need to figure out why two apps are showing too less storage space compared to the other ones.

  • Pop_OS shows me the size of the partition incorrectly

    I have increased the size of the partition of my Pop_OS installation (/nvme0n1p4) from 128 GB to 650 GB using Gparted (from the live USB stick). I have set it exactly to 650 GB.

    But in Pop_OS I now have the problem that I am shown three different sizes:

    • The command fdisk -l tells me that the partition has a size of 634.8 GB.
    • The app "disks" tells me that the partition has a size of 682 GB.
    • The app "Stacer" tells me the partition has a size of 624.2 GB.

    I am now a bit confused and would like to ask you if anyone knows a solution or can at least tell me which indication is correct. I mean, if this indication is wrong, is the information at all correct, how much space of the SSD is already used? I also see different specifications there...

    What got you into selfhosting and what was the first thing that you hosted?
  • Around the 2000s I hosted a Shoutcast server that played a playlist of about 30 punk rock MP3's on continuous loop. As far as I can remeber, it was running on a Win2000 machine. Yeah - Pirate Radio 😆

  • Alternative to Google Shopping List

    I am looking for an alternative to Google shopping list, self hosted if possible.

    KitchenOwl looks promising. Nextcloud and Homeassistant also offer something like this.

    But: I would like to add items to the shopping list via voice control (smart speaker). Does anyone have experience with this or an idea how this could be implemented? I mean, I can already control devices in Homeassistant via Google Assistant, which works perfectly. But adding items to a list?
