2 you say? That is 2 more the amount I actually have of real friends

I checked their page and I have now a personal license. I am going later to try to find out how it works, so we will see

That sounds like a crazy story to find out what the issue was. As I stated somewhere on the thread, ram is not the issue, and the APS are quite new (Aruba stuff that is 1 and a half year old). And the only situation I get this issues is with my phones in specific. I will probably use the smb solution stated before and see how is goes. If the thing still happens, then is hunting time

That is something I can totally do after I figure out this syncthing thing. Probably will use Borg backup but same principle applies

Finished an all nighter memtest with a total of 12 passes. All good on the ram side

That is some crazy story right there. I do know for a fact that memtest needs multiple passes. But in my case the machine only has 1 stick of ram (used to have 2, one died). I will probably do a memtest overnight and get at you tomorrow.

That is some good info here. My HDD is totally fine (checked it very recently actually), as for the ram last time I checked was ok, but can check again to be sure

Great question. I forgot to mention but at this point syncthing is only accessible on my WiFi at home. No VPN to it and no remote locations.

From what I see, kopia is for the desktop. Unless I didn’t see something, it is not available for android, which is where more important to have backup in my case

Never tried unison or resilio can check. As for seafile, that is what I had before. At some point I realized I was getting several issues with desktop mostly, and the storage was only accessible from seafile wich in my case I am not OK with. Mostly was the inconsistencies between oses

I could try to do that, but I simply do not have reproducible steps that are certain to make the problem happen. I am a developer myself, and I absolutely despise when someone says ‘hey, something random happened the other day. I cannot say what are the steps, but it is there’ just to find out in the end nothing is there, or is simply not reproducible no matter what and for reasons that I might never find out

This is an interesting one, will check. Thanks! I do have some smb stuff already on the machine, so this might be an easier solution

From what I tried, next cloud just has so much clutter that makes the syncing part a bit of a slog. If that was rock solid with OK speeds, that would be nice. But there is somich stuff with it that I don’t care and tries to enforce (like users and user groups) that I find just too much

Had a pixel 8, and now a new pixel 9a. I think the problem is actually a bit messy. On my house I have several access points. There is a chance when syncthing is working, and I am going up or down, phone changes the access point. Syncthing possibly gets a ’ oppsie, didn’t finish that! Let’s go for the next one’ kind of issue. Of course, never looked into logs or anything so this is just pure speculation.

Usually the kind of corruption on the photos is the kind that beginning is always there, but at some point gets replaced with gray, hence my theory about the files.

That is actually a good question, in this case the HDD is totally fine. Thing is, the photos only get corrupted very rarely (probably 1 every 3000 or so, and only sometimes) and often photos that got transfered several times to the phone (usually the problem is in the phone. On the desktop never had that)

As for immich, I do know about of but seems to be a bit much for what I need (and only photos AFAIK)

You are not wrong with the vps. Although I am quite worried that my data stays with me no matter what. Not that I have state secrets or anything, but my stuff is my stuff. And to avoid issues with encryption and such, your own device most of the times is king

Either they are afraid of losing jobs, or afraid of not having hot single moms in their area. Make a pick

Quite frankly, considering the daily routine of a lot of people, this is probably the best thing to do. REST! Nobody will do it for you

Depends. Some women cannot have enough milk production, some have over production. It’s a bit of a gamble most of the times. In countries like Brazil there is a sort of system where is possible to donate milk in case of over production, and in case you don’t have or not enough, you can have some of it (not sure about the details, but for me this sounds great).

As for people saying formula is better than breastmilk, believe or not, Nestlé is to blame for this. Back in the day they touted that all over the place, and at some point, they got penalties for saying such bs. The fun part? They are using the EXACT same tactics on some under developed countries so they can sell more. Quite frankly, Nestlé is really up there on companies to despise ( Exxon is possibly the top one, but Nestlé is not really that behind)
