Is the amount of snapshots limited to 50? (thelemmy.club)

Hello guys,

I've been using Cachyos for like a year or so; I switched to it after daily driving Mint for 2 years. With CachyOS, I installed limine and Btrfs. The reason being that I like its snapshot capabilities. I was just minding my own business and booting my system like normal. But I decided to check out the snapshots.

There I noticed that the newer snapshots were missing. So I booted the system like usual and opened Btrfs Assistant. Then I went to the tab called 'snapper' and saw that the last rule had the value 50 (see screenshot). It told me my boot partition was running out of space, so for now, I would like to limit the number of snapshots to keep. (Too lazy to perform a boot partition resize right now.)

My question is, does that number 50 represent the number of total snapshots my OS tries to make/keep?

I will increase the boot partition when I have time (if needed, for now I reduced the value to 10; I don't know why it was 50 to begin with).

Thanks in advance!

Anyone knows if vsts work in this version?

My wine is currently being helt at version 9.21 due to some bugs in newer versions.

Why is the transfer speed so slow from my laptop to mobile phone on wired cable? by Freakazoid in c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

It has probably something to do with the large quantities of individual files.

It works through the list of files one by one. The indexing, writing and checking of individual files takes longer than one single .zip file. Thus zipping them first increases the overall speed.

And burning cd/dvd's is getting more popular due to disappearing content on streaming services. Some shows got removed and are no longer available to watch elsewhere legally. Such a shame.

I was given a steam giftcard for my b-day, what now? by Freakazoid in c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Steam as soms sales so...

I understand your point and there are many reasons why people pirate stuff.

If possible I would spend it on a game or software if you like.

May I suggest games that can be played offline like indie titles if your into them.

Not an indie but still great: Sleeping Dogs Definitive Edition it's 20 euros and when at a discount drops till 3 euros.

I play on Linux myself work great and if your not into those online games with anti-cheats you can consider buying a steam deck.

Just like the energy bill. Those huge data centers use quite a lot of power...

I agree, indie titels are more unique/diverse.

Indeed it creates an flatimage, a file containing a base linux install and a runner of your choice. Wine staging for instance (Emulators also). You can add programs and or games to the package. Creating a one click solution to run software/game(s) without the need of aditional configuration afterwards like with lutris.

Works on all distros
