New hardware from the last 1-2 years or you want to take advantage of new software features quickly? Use a rolling release distro like Arch or Fedora or one of their derivatives. EndeavourOS is a great place to start with Arch if you don’t want to manually install things. On the Fedora side I’ve heard good things about Nobara and Bazzite.
Hardware older than 2y? Use literally anything.
Just finished the last of a bag of Counter Culture natural sundried Mpemba and I’m back to my standby inoffensive daily blend. The Mpemba was the best bag I’ve had in the last few years, I was put off at first by the figgy/fermented funk when I opened it but damn did it smell good after it was ground. The last creamy berry bomb I had that was this good was a natural process Yirgacheffe but that was more blueberry/blackberry than the strawberry/fig the Mpemba offered. Anyway, it was good stuff and I’m bummed it’s out of stock when I’m looking to order more.
Do we need to split hairs on money’s paw wish fulfillment?
That’s just asking for a large near-c rock. Can’t leave a crater if there’s nothing remaining at all.
Hardware accelerated JSON Markov chain operations when?
Time to train an LLM to format XML and hope for the best
The best I can do is an ML model running on an NPU that parses JSON in subtly wrong and impossible to debug ways
Yeah, I have a 1zpresso k ultra and it’s a phenomenal grinder. I haven’t fired up my electric grinder since I bought it.
I see a lot of people recommending the Timemore C2 as a cheap first grinder. Look for one on AliExpress and it’ll be cheaper than scAmazon. <$50 that sounds like the best option. I dug around a bit earlier and it looks like you can get one for ~$40 when they’re on sale.
I’m out of the loop here, you’re better off making a new post and asking everyone. I ascended to a $200+ 1zpresso last year and I’m never going back. Someone on Reddit bought it and had buyers remorse so when I saw it listed for half price I couldn’t resist.
I can tell you not to buy the Hario Skerton or Skerton Pro though; both were incredibly inconsistent and I had a terrible time brewing using them. Even with stabilizer ring mods they both made a ton of fines and boulders, they weren’t good for anything except very coarse grind cold brew.
Don’t store ground coffee? Buy an inexpensive hand grinder from someone who’s moved up to a more expensive model and keep your beans whole until you’re ready to brew.
Coffee stales amazingly quickly and there’s really no good way to prevent it, the longest I’d store ground coffee for is like half a day (if I’m taking some ground coffee to work to make a cup mid day.)
If you absolutely must store ground coffee an airtight container should work but it won’t be terribly fresh after a day or two.
I haven’t run anything older than Skylake since 2020. I imagine anyone planning to run these either hasn’t done the math on energy costs or lives somewhere where electricity is dirt cheap.

Just curious, what are you afraid someone would do with your dna results? The government in America already keeps dna results on all babies born in the 80’s and later.
Corporations aren’t exactly known for being honest or fair, or following the law, when they have valuable data to sell. They might tell you that they’ll delete your data but there’s always a chance that they’ll retain it and sell it under the table if someone makes a compelling offer. Or an employee could steal the data and sell it secretly, or they could have a security breach and someone could make off with it.
Why would any of that be bad? Because health insurance companies are salivating over new ways to deny your claims (or crank up your premiums) and genetic data that reveals an elevated risk of a serious condition is a damned good excuse for them to do just that.
Ad money machine didn’t go brrrrrr
For RSS I like ReadYou, for feeds I like Mastodon with a variety of interests followed. There are a surprising number of orgs on Mastodon these days.
Depends on the SSD, the one I linked is fine for casual home server use. You’re unlikely to see enough of a write workload that endurance will be an issue. That’s an enterprise drive btw, it certainly wasn’t cheap when it was brand new and I doubt running a couple of VMs will wear it quickly. (I’ve had a few of those in service at home for 3-4y, no problems.)
Consumer drives have more issues, their write endurance is considerably lower than most enterprise parts. You can blow through a cheap consumer SSD’s endurance in mere months with a hypervisor workload so I’d strongly recommend using enterprise drives where possible.
It’s always worth taking a look at drive datasheets when you’re considering them and comparing the warranty lifespan to your expected usage too. The drive linked above has an expected endurance of like 2PB (~3 DWPD, OR 2TB/day, over 3y) so you shouldn’t have any problems there. See https://www.sandisk.com/content/dam/sandisk-main/en_us/assets/resources/enterprise/data-sheets/cloudspeed-eco-genII-sata-ssd-datasheet.pdf
Older gen retired or old stock parts are basically the only way I buy home server storage now, the value for your money is tremendous and most drives are lightly used at most.
Edit: some select consumer SSDs can work fairly well with ZFS too, but they tend to be higher endurance parts with more baked in over provisioning. It was popular to use Samsung 850 or 860 Pros for a while due to their tremendous endurance (the 512GB 850s often had an endurance lifespan of like 10PB+ before failure thanks to good old high endurance MLC flash) but it’s a lot safer to just buy retired enterprise parts now that they’re available cheaply. There are some gotchas that come along with using high endurance consumer drives, like poor sync write performance due to lack of PLP, but you’ll still see far better performance than an HDD.
Looks like someone fucked up package dependencies somewhere.
I’m surprised they don’t have some basic automated testing running in a VM after new package releases but I suppose they don’t need it if they can farm that duty out to their free userbase.
