I don’t have pride in my government or its actions.

It was actively causing a lot of harm for most of its existence and is now turbo charging its ability to enshittify the world.

The LEAST I can do is make it clear we’re not all in support of this shit.

Love the country and people though. Lots of cool forests to roam and lots of people who don’t suck.

Now I need Tue rest of the pic

What am I looking at?

We’re trying to make popcorn

Nah that’s wrong

Shirt tags are loud as shit and it sounds painful at the base of my skull.

Sound is the correct sense.

Tylenol and Autism joke

Took me a second

You can. But with used parts which feels like has always been the case.

Playing with it locally is the best way to do it.

Ollama is great and believe it or not I think Googles Gemma is the best for local stuff right now.

He’s a libertarian who is, self admittedly, hard to work with. He’s also petty and a pedant.

Great for right to repair and digital sovereignty, but there’s a lot more arguably real issues in the world than making sure my tech is upgradable. Like I’m pretty sure he talk about supporting RFK Jr in 24 [citation needed]'. I don’t follow him as closely since he made a 20 minute video trying to argue that AOC is wrong about there being no such thing as unskilled labor by explaining the exact point.

I really don’t wanna know his thoughts on trans rights or the mass racist deportations.

That’s so fucking rough.

KazuK9_ is a brutal twitter handle for our friend Kazuk to deal with.

I didn’t know Pillion meant passanger

The disregard of

“Dress for the slide”

Was enough for me

This is one of those things where my 6+ ft height is a privilege.

I have never even dreamed of putting my feet on the dash.

And if you just want a NAS? It is really hard to go wrong with a 4 bay NAS from one of the reputable vendors (which may just be ugreen at this point?) as those tend to still come out cheaper than building it yourself and 4 disks means you can either play with fire with RAID5 or not be stupid and do RAID1.

Actually ASUS started to sell N100 motherboards with the CPU soldered on for $120

That plus a jonsbo N2 or N3, a few extra pieces, and its a few hundred dollars cheaper than the Ugreen options. Sure it will probably run Truenas instead of Ugreens custom truenas or whatever its built on, but that extra $300 is another 24TB hard drive or a HexOS lifetime subscription.

There’s also always the classic buy an old mid sized tower for $100 and slap two massive hard drives in it

I knew a guy who did actually make method in his apartment bathtub.

It was in part to make clean up easier and also had ventilation!

Although that guys was an odd duck and chemistry genius. He’s a PHd student now and was actually making them meth so he could try meth he “trusted”

I doubt your average method manufacturer cares that much about safety though.

Executive dysfunction hot chicken

Context? I just see a bunch of kids collecting sticks and I’m currently day dreaming about my future hobby farm for when I get out of tech. So this actually males my life feel worse.

Imagine less off a proper BOD and more of a 3D Printable holder for 3.5 inch drives and no actual connections.

I was considering a mini ITX PC with just an external SAS to Sata PCI card. But at the rate of just building that I might end up just building a better tiny nas box with maybe a jonsbo case like the N3

I just steal those.

I feel like I can do some gnarly satanic shit with stolen bibles

That’s basically what I’m going for.

How are you connecting the mini PC via SATA and how are you powering the BOD?
