  • California did not vote for Donny Dumbass. Retaliation on blue states is part of the Trump agenda.

    (Though he's pissed off a couple red states too)

  • Media attention benefits the Trump agenda and the point is to set off the powderkeg. There is no deescalation.

    To cause a riot is the point; that's why punishment for objecting to agents was fortified as soon as the turd defiled the white house.

    Americans will die, but only those who oppose Trump's agenda.

  • Ditto to your comment except power usage. I moved my Plex/Jellyfin (and hopefully Immich soon) docker containers to an N100 for the hardware acceleration. TDP is 6 watts on some of these devices and CPU use sits around 2% unless Plex is doing DB optimizations (about 60% for a bit). I haven't measured consumption or my older server, but I feel moving some CPU intensive services to hardware GPU is saving a few watts.

  • We all get to fight AI tax prep now haha. All they have to do is send notices, it's up to you to provide the man-hours.

  • I'm so glad I paid my Federal taxes this year. /s

  • Thanks for reminding me. I have to do that before the new TOS kicks in. I just never bothered to do the reset password dance because I don't care about reddit anymore.

  • [Comment removed because a better, non-tracking link was provided]

  • We used FM transmitters for those guys back in the day. Plug it in the headphone port and tune the stations.

  • Fun fact: A skilled linesman can use their tongue to tell the difference between 9V DC and 115kV AC.

    The more you know*

  • This conversation just got Quasimodo-esque for a number of readers real fast.

  • Ah thanks! I couldn't tell if the translator added the AI vibes or not. Updoot!

  • Don't know if it's the translation, but this reads like AI slop.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm not defending either group; two different piles of shit can still be called shit. Just pointing out this is giving me "convince someone ____ and ____ are linked" prompt vibes.

  • And don't think hiding your address on maps will help. We had a helicopter circle every neighborhood photographing houses earlier this year.

    The insurance denial market is in full swing.

  • There is M.2 on the mobo so I'd probably go with NVMe over SSD.

    I second the RAM recommendation. I have 32GB in my Synology and it needed it for all those docker containers and VM's.

    As for the mobo, not thrilling, but could work. If you have to add a PCIe card for more drives, 10G network, or more NVMe, you'll max out pretty quick with a GPU in there too.

  • I bought one last year and and that's exactly what happened. It's in a box. I'd love to install it, but have to build a little external box because it did t quite fit.

  • That protest video request is sooo for facial recognition and targeting. Fuck Trump's cruelty.

  • I installed one last year too. Absolutely love it and finagled it to work with Home Assistant.

    Never noticed any mold, but did add a activated charcoal prefilter. I do take it down for winter though.

  • Could look up the menu. At least it would narrow down options.

  • I don't think purchase info is necessary tied to hardware out of the box beyond asset tracking. That would cause issues with gifting.

    The easy answer is if you don't run the software, it can't collect data.

    However, the firmware is network capable and certain diagnostic tools and recovery modes can call home. I am not familiar to the extent, however.

    This also does not stop other devices, Apple included, from detecting the Mac and reporting home hardware/location data.

  • I've been slowly, very slowly, migrating away from Synology stuff, but everything you mentioned are my holdouts because they have been rock solid for decades. Even the cheap used products can swing those apps.

    I hate to be the bad influence (no, who am I kidding, not really) and suggest more servers, but if you can find something cheap, I'd maybe give it a try.
