10/10 video. She knocked it out of the park.

Can you tell if an AI is being trained on these Lemmy instances? How would you detect it and stop it?

Depends on the usage. That’s the gamble you take. I would maybe buy three and put two in a mirror and keep the third one as a replacement?

That’s 240$ for three drives without warranty though… Nevermind I’d prefer to buy two new Toshiba X300 new for 210$ a piece and forget the headache and get the warranty.

Sometimes you get what you pay for … Sometimes

I think about this a lot and it really does depend on your needs.

Home lab vs home server. I like to keep them separate just because I consider my lab unstable and my home server stable. You don’t have to do it this way it’s just the way I like it.

https://a.co/d/6k6QpOD If you want to build a low power NAS I suggest investing in an Intel n100 based itx Nas motherboard. You can then use a case like this from Jonsbo https://a.co/d/1ayqwJV. This could be a nice cool and quiet solution. If you want to do video transcoding, the n100 has quicksync on board and with something like Truenas it’s pretty easy to set up via the app catalog (check out truecharts).

If you want something even more simple (good for home users or like a backup target you keep elsewhere) I’ve been meaning to grab one of these “Topton 2-Bay NAS R1 PRO 12th Gen Intel N100 Network Attached Storage Media Server” from AliExpress for just this case.

As for a Lab, I suggest finding a W680 chipset based motherboard like an ASRock IMB-X1314 LGA 1700 Intel W680. You can get a cpu like a 12400 or 12500T (lower power and less heat) used cheap and you have the option to upgrade and use ecc memory without a XEON. You also have a lot more pci express connectivity.

What ever you do choose, anything pre 12th gen Intel is basically ewaste (those 11th gen mobile erying I9 engineering samples are very good but less reliable than desired). Do not invest in any old x99 based gear (unless you get it for free). I have an old dual XEON system that is still running and it uses power like a small fridge.

I’m out of the loop. Is Taylor Swift a jet now? I tried to google Taylor Swift as a jet and ended up on reddit.com/r/aeromorph . . .

Taylor Swift isn’t real, her whole existence is a psy-op.

I recently went to a Burger King in a nice neighborhood the other day. I hadn’t been to a Burger King in a long time but I was there before the bank opened. I walked in and it looked just like this, all the seats were rigid, cheap, small and uncomfortable (I am not a large person). There were no fountains for drinks. There were no dispensers of any kind. The seating area was basically just a small hallway to a restroom. It wasn’t a place you were supposed to eat. It was more like a display from a shopping mall department store window and just as uninviting.

Inside you had to order from the digital kiosk. I assume that burger king transitioned to making the drivers window the priority during the pandemic. All the space in that building was probably allotted to increasing the size of the kitchen.

They still had the original burger king playpen and maze but it was permanently locked with an out of order sign.

It’s been an unsupportable business model from the beginning. Other than android, everything Google makes is easily replaceable by some other product. They don’t have a monopoly like any of their competition that will easily sustain them. I honestly don’t believe the majority of Google Engineers actually do anything innovative anymore as most of those people left the company when their pet projects were shut down in the first round of cost cutting measures (around the time Google became Alphabet).

Came here for this comment

Who was he?

Hi!I see a lot of great suggestions here but I was just looking at your chart and I think just one fundamental change would benefit you.

Think of your switch as the “core” of your network. Everything should connect to that switch (computers, access points, firewall) for your best experience/performance.

If you go with unifi, you should know that their switches are managed but if you intend to self host anything, you’re actually going to want the managed features!

Thanks and goodluck!

Did anyone else get the email that said Max is reducing its adfree tier to 2 screens instead of 3 and no more 4k? I just got it yesterday.

Cancelled.
