couple new stickers in the store
https://store.mollywhite.net/products/im-not-hoarding-im-archiving-sticker
@molly0xfff I need one of each for each of my three 8 disk Synology NASes to tell them apart.
@simonschreibt i need to figure out how to get that label to show up properly... it’s not that they’re sold out, it’s that i can’t ship stickers to the EU/NI anymore :(
@molly0xfff oh, that's sad. those stickers are very cool! 
@molly0xfff Going to have to be extra nice to US colleagues so I can get someone to repost some to me
@molly0xfff @simonschreibt Aww, why not?
@max @simonschreibt the new GPSR law would require me to have a representative in the EU
@molly0xfff
A thought: if you're selling the stickers as a digital file, than afaict you do not need a representative in the EU. IANAL.
@max @simonschreibt
@BjornW as far as i'm concerned people can have the digital files for free
@molly0xfff
That's very nice of you & will solve this issue 
@molly0xfff @BjornW can you reply with a link in this thread when you share it? Don't want to miss this!! 
@TheDragon @BjornW here are the images: https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0716/8511/2045/files/hoarding.png?v=1734653170
or if you have a cutting machine: https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0716/8511/2045/files/hoarding.studio3?v=1734653189
@molly0xfff @BjornW thank you so much!! Massively appreciated 
@molly0xfff @simonschreibt oh! That one slipped right past me! Well, yes, I can see how that complicates things. You'd have to find some European sticker shop and have them sit in the middle, but that's a bit of a drag for just a funny sticker...
@molly0xfff @simonschreibt Oh no! I clocked the second I saw those.
@molly0xfff Im not hoarding these calories, Im archiving pounds.
@molly0xfff aieeee I will be ordering these! 
@awfulwoman @molly0xfff can we go splitsies on an order? I just did a big haul from molly the other month and I don’t wanna do the shipping (fully) again <3
@janl @awfulwoman @molly0xfff if you are just ordering a couple of stickers then “shipping” is a 73¢ stamp. (At least it was for the 5 stickers
I just ordered. I suppose at some
Level a stamp doesn’t cut it anymore.)
@merlyn383 @janl @awfulwoman yep, i ship with stamps unless you’re ordering 20+ stickers at a time
@merlyn383 @awfulwoman @molly0xfff this is to Berlin, Germany.
@janl @awfulwoman @molly0xfff "I do not ship stickers and art prints to EU countries or Northern Ireland, due to the GPSR." 
@xgebi @awfulwoman @molly0xfff blegh, understandable of course. Glad Infot my order in not too long ago.
Those are terrible stickers and i am totally not buying them right now. They would totally look bad on my 32TB data server that contains my life, obscure media and basically everything I do not want to get lost ever.
No really, awesome stickers. 
SOLD OUT D:
My current project is called Indie Archive and it looks a lot like that bottom pic.
Seven copies across four machines. Three copies with version history.
Also hourly file integrity checks using checksum.
Implemented with rsync and rsnapshot.
@hairylarry Sounds interesting, in both name and concept. What's the target use case for this?
It's designed for Indie Producers, like myself, to store projects they really don't ever want to lose, like albums, videos, last year's blog posts, a novel or other writings, photos, etc.
Backups first, backup everything at least daily, automatically.
Archival storage, next, For more redundancy, 7 drives on 4 systems in 3 locations with file integrity checks for completed projects or milestones of works in progress. Files added to archival storage manually.
@hairylarry Very thorough. Impressive!
It's three or four shell scripts. Probably less that 20 lines total.
The hard part was learning how to use rsync, rsnapshot, and ssh to get the desired results.
The second hard part is the installation document. It's a hardware and software project with three systems each slightly different and I am not assuming computer expertise for the installer. I'm on the second pass on the install documents, notes.txt - overview and install.txt - actual commands. It's Been fun!
@hairylarry
Cool project! Noting that fixity checks of that frequency are outside of current digital archives best practices and may compromise best practices for environmental sustainability for digital archives.
Thanks. Using rsync dry runs with checksum enabled results in very quick checks. It may, however, be desirable to make it less frequent.
I appreciate your input into my Indie Archive project. I will keep you informed as I progress. The outside points of view make me think of things I've missed as I focus primarily on implementation.
Keeping the systems cheap to run aka green was mentioned in early documents but then got lost in amongst the head scratching.
@molly0xfff I need these in my life. They are awesome!
@molly0xfff Influenced.
@molly0xfff
I honestly don’t know if I’ve ever order anything faster in my life. TAKE MY MONEY!
@molly0xfff Xmas gifts for @internetarchive 
@molly0xfff I am missing a picture with a tape library.
@Reinald @molly0xfff Spectra Logic T 950 fam, represent!
@molly0xfff I know these stickers are for me because I felt a little tingle seeing that stack of hard drives. I'll get help... maybe after I get a few stickers.
@molly0xfff Cue Promo:
"From A&E,
The cable TV Channel that in 2009 introduced 'Hoarders' to an entire generation of viewers, shaming people living in Cluttered Houses,
Brings you "Archivers",
Sharing the stories of people whose cases of VHS tapes and 8 Track have yet to be digitally transcoded onto NVME SSDs.
Coming January 2025."
End Credits.
@molly0xfff the 3d-printed save icons look cool.
