Can't open data from external hard drive, Qgis 3.10 - qgis

You should watch in /media or /mnt not in /run .

TYPO3 maximum file size for filelist?

In my TYPO3 installation only files up to (2GB?) are shown in the filelist.
But there are more files over 2GB in the folder (see screen ftp) - how can I view these?
Were all files uploaded via the TYPO3 Backend or maybe via FTP, SCP, etc.?
You could try to run the Scheduler Task "File Abstraction Layer: Update storage index" to update the index/cache data of your storage.

Use USB Drive files in html using Apache2

So i have a Raspberry Pi 3 with the latest OS (10-04-2021) and i have apache2 running. I created a website which is in the directory /var/www/html/ with a few folders (e.g css, img, etc.) and i used the image tag with src="" to the usb drive path, but the video doesn´t load. I tried, if i made any mistakes while coding the website. So i also placed the website folder on the desktop with also the video path to my usb drive and i could play it on the website. I can´t place the .mp4 files in the /var/www/html/ path just because my SD card only has a few GB and my video folder is about 100 GB. How can i use my .mp4 files from my USB drive on the server/localhost?
What i tried and didn´t work was:
chmod -R a+r /media/pi/KINGSTON/*
I am just a beginner with raspberry pi and its OS.
That's a totally correct behavior. For security reasons Apache won't let you access files outside the document root, which in your case should be /var/www/html/. There are multiple approaches to do this, the first is to create symlinks in the document root and instruct apache2 to follow symlinks in the configuration file. Another approach is to use aliases.

Samba read speeds very slow through Explorer, but OK through Firefox

I have a file server running Ubuntu 12.04 and Samba 3.6.3. A Samba share is mapped to a drive on a Windows 8 machine.
When copying a test file to a local drive (which is an SSD and not a bottleneck here), it is very slow when doing so through Explorer. It is similarly slow when downloading the file through Internet Explorer. When downloading through Firefox (by entering the file URI), however, it is more than 10x as fast, as the image below shows.
What's going on here? I know that Samba is not fast, but I thought that's generally the case when dealing with lots of small files, when its request logic is very inefficient. The test file was 826 MB.
Removing custom "socket options" line in smb.conf (the Samba configuration file) solved it for me.
It seems that it's best to leave that option blank nowadays, since it will calculate optimal values itself. Firefox seemed to be either using its own SMB protocol settings, or ignoring those set by the Samba server.

Fetching .kmz files from local disk and importing them into Google Earth via API

I need to import 3D models of each building in New York City into the Google Earth API. I fetched their .kmz files using google.earth.fetchKml. Since this command uses the URL of the kmz files and the number of files to imported is a lot it is very slow.
Is there any way I can fetch these files from my local disk?
Are there other formats I can use instead of .kmz? For example .dae files?
You cannot use a local file (non http) url to fetch your KML data.
But you could run a local webserver and use that.
For example, if you have python installed you could go to your directory with your KML files and run "python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8000", at which point pointing to http://localhost:8000/myfile.kml would load them up.
That said you should also note that the terms of use for the plugin require your site be publicly available, amongst other things - so hopefully you are only using this setup for local testing :)
