I think I officially have a hoarding problem…
Meanwhile here I am trying to upgrade my 512gb NVME drive to 2Tb while also still trying to afford car payments. Rookie numbers on my part.
I’m reading the command to the tune of Du Hast
Bob Saget would roll in his grave if he heard about your addiction.
I was like “nothing wrong here” until I saw that T that my brain just refused to parse the first time.
If I was on my laptop and not my phone I would post a screenshot with a P just for you
lol , is home separate mount point?
Yeah,
So Home is a separate 1.8TB NVME drive… But under home is my home directory, and under that is a half-dozen NAS mounts, including my
Plex stuff.collection of ISO images. ;-)omg. how many isos to get 100tb
If you’re doing raw bluray, not as many as you’d think.
Your username absolutely does not check out. Or your shredder is broken haha
I shred paper. ;-) After digitizing it of course. ;-)
For working I’m a backup and DR guy…the name was intended to be ironic. ;-)
Pardon my stupidity BUT why include stdout to Devnull? Why not omit and simply ‘du -sh /home’
There’s probably a bunch of permissions errors, filesystems warnings for cross-filesystem mounts or links, etc. all going to stderr. Linux output streams are a bit odd, 1 is stdout and 2 is stderr. So the command is redirecting the “noise” to null and just printing the actual command output. That would be my assessment, but OP could probably give a more correct answer…!
Nope, you are exactly on.
Noob, just use sudo, less chars!
Oddly enough, still generates errors. (There are stuff in user directories that are set to 600… so even root can’t browse/open.)
There’s also some stuff in Proc and run that won’t let you.
Well now I have to try this. Missing that executable bit would make sense. But last time I did this on / I didn’t get errors 🤔
2> means stderr… Keeps the “can’t access …” Out of the display.
That’s stderr, not stdout
Bruh
To be fair, all but about 2TB of that is on a NAS…but still.
Pfft, the only “hoarding problem” is that storage is expensive these days!
I know, I just paid $500 for a 24TB SAS drive that was $250 just over a year ago.
Greetings, fellow data hoarder!
Rookie numbers.
Try that shit on datahoarders and see hoards measured in Petabytes
I went there once, on Reddit, and they are indeed over PB for some years now.
I myself already have 50T and it feels like a bottomless pit
Jesus…
