Here's an idea, how about instead of developing 500 different and feature incompatible file systems, they all work together on one file system and make it really good. Oh wait, that would require an open source project to not fragment into a million competing things that all suck.

it exists already, it's called ext4

gonna sperg a bit here and say that the lack of permissions on vfat/exfat make them uniquely useful for thumb drives

Then why did they have to make ReFS???? Serious question for the thread: Is transmission a good program for sharing things with my peers?

This problem was solved in a satisfactory manner in the 1970s. Page tables solved the same problem in much the same manner for secure multiplexing of a computer's volatile memory resources shortly afterwards. These are not operating system primitives that need to be improved upon. If you want compression or copy-on-write or indexing or whatever the hell else then that should be layered on top of this blocklist allocation system. Ext4 improved precisely the implementation details that needed to be improved upon: directories are stored as B-trees and block lists are coalesced into extents.

For bonus points, seed it with a raspberry pi and cut your power consumption from 40 watts to 2.5 - a ~94% power reduction. EDIT: raspberry pi with raspbian comes with transmission

speaking of Linux Isos, i guess rtorrent lets you daemonize it easier so i upgraded that. i ahd to spend like an hour figuring out why xml rpc didnt work and it was some autoconf issue so i just deleted the if guards around the code and it worked

i'm retarded about these things but it looks like you just cant lock the file twice. it looks like a easier patch to rtorrent to just use syslog

it's opened by systemd. this is a stupid problem but you enter a file to log to and /dev/stdout doesn't work

/dev/stdout (and /dev/stdin & /dev/stderr) are an idiotic bash-ism where if it sees those strings in a file redirection, it dups fd 1 (and 0 or 2, respectively) instead of actually opening the file. at some point somebody tried to use them outside of bash and it didn't work because they're magic strings instead of files, so the symlinks in /dev were created as a half-assed solution that works some of the time

I did the wrong thing and decided to try Fedora outside of a VM. Installer was buggy but did its job, worked for a few minutes. Popped up a dialog saying get some updates. I got the updates, system is rendered unusable. Probably has to do with a nouveau issue+having 2 monitors plugged in. Not going to troubleshoot. I'll try again next year. 2017 year of Linux in a VM.
