I think that comparison is quite unfair to Teddy, and overly flattering to Chuck Norris.
Historian, sheriff, war hero, governor, explorer, and a successful President who reshaped America largely for the better. While Roosevelt was human, he led a life that very few have ever matched.
It is funny because you usually think of Death as something inevitable and people just accept it but then ... some of these guys put up a fight. Mega-LMAO!
I tried this out about 2 months ago when setting up a new server. I wanted something simpler and less resource heavy as webmin but it was just too simple. Adding questionable, half baked add-ons to get various functions to work just didn't give me the flexibility of webmin.
This has been my problem. Not necessarily that the rate limits are low, many can be gotten around by using multiple users to do the work since the limits are per user, but how rclone handles those rate limits when they hit them. The exponential back off will end up making hours and days long delays that will screw a migration.
How do you deal with how poorly rclone handles rate limits? It doesn't honor dropbox's retry-after header and just adds an exponential back off that, in my migrations, has resulted in a pause of days.
I've adjusted threads and the various other controls rclone offers but I still feel like I'm not see it's true potential because the second it hits a rate limit I can all but guarantee that job will have to be restarted with new settings.
I honestly haven't used it with Dropbox before, have you tried adjusting --tpslimit 12 --tpslimit-burst 0 flags? Are you creating a dedicated api key for the transfer? Rate limits may vary between Plus/Advanced forum.rclone.org is quite active you may want to post more details there.
I mean, you didn’t give it enough time. All of these cloud storage platforms are databases at their core. When you delete the file you’re updating the database entry, the data (and the record of it) is still there until their purge process runs, which could be days or weeks.
If it’s still there at a month I’d be surprised and be checking terms of service to see what they commit to.
The 180 days is documented for iCloud device backups, but not documented for iCloud Drive.
I also don’t think you can make that assumption. I’ve worked for many companies where we had recovery tools we didn’t advertise to customers especially since it wasn’t a guarantee that they would work, and they involved manual recovery effort. We didn’t want to just give customers the idea that they could be sloppy and delete their data and depend on us to do a low level database restore.
That’s because Diet Coke is not based on classic Coke. It’s based on new coke, it should really be called diet new coke. Coke Zero is based on Coca Cola classic.
I always appreciate when people make comments like this. It helps identify the trolls or people so completely outside of reality you can mark them as untrustworthy and ignore whatever they say.
