Recently, upgrade iMac memory from 4GB each to 8GB. Officially this 2011 iMac only supports 4GB each, but 8GB memory can be installed.
It can also install mixed memory size and mixed speed. I also installed the memory which supported both 1.3v and 1.5v.
As the Synology DS1812+ NAS officially only supports 3GB RAM, I used 3GB RAM NAS for many years.
Recently, I got one 1Rx8 4GB DDR3 RAM, wanted to try to see whether DS1812+ can use it.
After installed, luckily it is working. Plus 1GB on board memory, it has about 5GB memory now.

To save time on reviewing comment in WordPress, I decided to implement ReCatpcha in WordPress.
Download Advanced noCaptcha & invisible Captcha plugin, because it supports many forms, including Contact Form 7 which I'm using currently.
Get Google reCAPTCHA keys and configure them into two fields in settings of plugin.
recaptcha.net as Recaptcha DomainNote: I chose V3.
Result will be a smal box at right bottom corner on each page.
In Contact Form 7 plugin configuration, click on the form which used and add following statement.
[anr_nocaptcha g-recaptcha-response]There is an issue after turned on.
The contact form has one empty non-editable box, very annoying.

Recently upgraded my DS1812+ memory, the backup job was stuck, but I don't know whether they are related. Because I was rebooting in the morning, but the backup was stuck at 4pm.
To fix the issue, run following command
sudo killall backupdSome people mentioned commands
sudo service com.apple.metadata.mds stop
sudo service com.apple.metadata.mds startBut there is no service command in my MacOS.
rmlintusageThe command rmlint can be used to dedup the files, which can support reflink.
I was using reflink dedup for BTRFS, but end up, I changed to hardlink. I think hardlink is more commonly used in Unix environment
rmlint -T df --config=sh:handler=hardlink /dedupThis will dedup the files in /dedup directory, and will generate a file called rmlint.sh in current directory. Run that shell script, will change duplicated files to hard link.
The -T df means dedup files.
The config=sh means generate shell script
The handler=hardlink means generate script using hardlink dedup
There are many options, but I don't use them.
I was changing harddisk in Synology DSM 7 in the volume with Docker package installed by recreating the volume, it requires docker package to be removed. I thought the docker folder (/volumeX/docker) might not removed, so backed up the container images into docker folder. But I was wrong, the docker folder was removed.
The docker folder was created by Docker package, which can be moved to other volume after stopped Docker package. I didn't see any data in it, and I don't know what the usage of this folder is and it is zero in size.
Spent a few hours troubleshoot the eWeLink could not add Sonoff switch issue.
After a few hours, still could not detect Sonoff switch.
In the evening, the suddenly can detect, but could not download device info, got error 401. Then I think it was caused by me after reset password, then used the phone which performed password reset to try again. Finally the device was added successfully.
Then tried at night again, everything ok.
I think it was caused by eWeLink website issue, which could not register new device. And once issue happened, need to reset the device to let the eWeLink App detects again, and I didn't notice the message as well.
In Monkey’s Audio, there is a function called Verify, which should verify integrity of APE audio files.
But after I downloaded the latest version of Monkey's Audio (version 7.21), then I don't believe it can do any more.
I got a few files which are different than another set of same files. They come from same source, shoud be identical, but there are a few bytes different. Then I used Monkey's Audio to test all of them, they all past the verification.
There are some other issues too, the Monkey's Audio could not add directory, I tried many time, just nothing added. But I can add files.
Possible to check integrity of APE files?
