I install MPV and it somehow pulls this yt-dlp dependance named Deno that is taking an hour to compile on an M3 Max CPU.
It’s not the first time I see rust dependances creeping everywhere. Nothing against it but could they make the compiler faster?

> In early 1997, the University of North Carolina setup a new Novell server called “Server 54”. After it was set up there was no need to access it physically and it was quickly forgotten. During an audit 4 years later, they could not find the server... anywhere. With help from Novell and Staff IT they traced the connection to a wire that went into a wall. In April of 2001, they found that found the server had been walled in during a remodel. That means that this server had remained on for the entire 4 years completely cut off from any human intervention or ventilation.

Also invite-only hub-and-spoke VPN network projects seem to be appearing here and there. I am involved in at least 2 of these. Most are retro computing related and I suspect the OSA is the trigger for it since the admins seem to be just brits trying to run their communities without having to pay Persona for age verification compliance.

If rsync from macOS to Linux hangs or shows some weird behavior it’s because there is a clear mismatch between the implementations.
Modern MacOS changed from the Rsync published by the Samba project to OpenRsync published by the OpenBSD project.
Licensing drama as always and it seems both programs don’t really talk to each other very well on their defaults.
To avoid the problem you can set the --protocol= flag on MacOS (or OpenBSD). I think --protocol=29 should work and if not try 28.

pgvector
postgis
];

Fulcrum initial sync is extremely slow. If your computer crashes during sync you have to start all over again. Even after you finish it, if you close it incorrectly it while it writes something you are also toast.
I found that doing periodic shutdowns and running a backup is the best strategy here. And then repeat from time to time after you get it synced.
If anyone is wondering the speed in comparison ti electrs makes it totally worth the pain.
