  • Well, with multiple users you'd need to decide what the use case is for the whole NAS and then work down from there.

    Are you sharing everything in the NAS with everyone? In that case your NAS setup is fine, just a little permissive, because with RW to everything, the end users can break everything.

    If it were me setting this up, I'd have different mount points for different users. 1 mount for each user that only they can read/write (not even you should be able to see it), and 1 mount that everyone can read/write, maybe if you want to go a little bonkers, 1 mount that everyone can read, but only you can write to.

    Then you'd mount those three to separate mounts in your /media, and you can link them from your home directory for specific use cases.

    Obviously this is completely overkill, but you can take the parts that sound appealing to you and ignore the rest.

  • How many users are there?

    Is there a chance that the computer will boot without access to the NAS (aside from failure conditions).

    Are you doing anything with ownership to prevent reading, or changing, sensitive files?

  • People in here are missing the point. Yeah, Applebees, Olive Garden, IHOP, etc. aren't "classy", they're cheap chain sit-down restaurants. They appeal to a wide audience, cause they are clean, the food is fine, they serve a variety of drinks, and you can go there semi-regularly as long as you have some disposable income.

    Sure, you're not going to see multi-millionaires who grew up rich going there, those people go to the "fancy" chains, like Ruth's Chris Steak House. But you'd probably see a 6 figure tech job family sitting in a both next to a plumber family sitting next to a doctor family. Which is something you don't really see at most other places.

  • That's my point though. They don't really address how McCoy got the glasses he gave to Kirk in Star Trek II. Did he buy them? Did he just ask someone for them? Did he barter for them for services?

    Same thing with alcohol, some people pull out alcohol they obtained through some back alley, black market deal. But what was traded for this black market alcohol?

  • Star Trek was pretty inconsistent with money. Riker often gambled for money, and they certainly treated specific items as "valuable" (historical items, weapons, and especially liquor.)

    I think some of the writers just didn't know how to picture a post-money world. But by DS9 they mostly treated things like latinum an inter-species trading valuable (especially to/from the Ferengi) or just something that's needed in the outskirts of the Federation.

  • You could theoretically split some of that power from multiple sources though. Run one USB-C line to power the hot end, one to run the bed, and one for the electronics and motors.

    Would get pretty complicated pretty quick, but it might work with a LOT of effort.

  • You're arguing for really odd behavior here. Should I quit a higher paying job to go work at home depot, just on the off chance I can get a union started there? Why would that make any sense?

    The reason higher paying tech jobs don't typically have unions is because the workers are typically in more demand, and someone leaving the job is punishing for the company. If two or three key people do this, it's worse for a mid sized company than a strike.

    If all the higher paid people at my job quit, it would improve conditions for the rest. Quitting and labor organizing are both ways to put pressure on a company.

  • Their self driving is not the best in the world, they're not really rated all that well in self driving, they just market it that way.

    Their infotainment system isn't great, their dashboard for the model 3 is in the middle of the car, and there's no speedometer where every other manufacturer puts it. The infotainment system also controls the wipers, climate, and everything else with a touch screen, making it less useful and more dangerous for an average driver.

    Their manufacturing isn't outstanding, they had a target goal of full automatic factories, but instead have to rely on underpaid, nonunion workers, and it shows in the build quality.

    They don't supply parts, info, and equipment to 3rd party manufacturers, making it more expensive to maintain and fix their cars.

    Their batteries are average, but they intentionally lie on the range estimate to make them look better.

    Basically, aside from the advantage of being the first major EV manufacturer, everything else commonly associated with Tesla is just marketing lies.

  • Depends on what the goal is. Heavy vehicles do disproportionately more damage to the infrastructure.

    They might want to encourage smaller, lighter cars, regardless of type. They certainly make small city EVs, as well as just encouraging walking, biking, public transportation, etc.

  • Republicans are blocking military officers for the same reason they blocked supreme court nominations, they're gambling on their guy winning in 2024 so they can pack the leadership ranks and hold power without winning an election.

    Dems can work on more than one thing, but these two are both critical.

  • Possums don't live exclusively on ticks, they don't even particularly have a penchant for eating ticks. There was just one study that showed they could eat ticks and potentially have a resistance to some diseases.
