  • solving the first problem is probably easier than explaining the complex physics to everyone with the current education system. A more inclusive government would also improve the education system and lead to better understanding, too.

  • tbf all the big storage clusters use either mirroring or erasure coding these days. For bulk storage, 4+2 or 8+2 erasure coding is pretty fast, but for databases you should always use mirroring to speed up small writes. but yeah for home use, just use LVM or zfs mirrors.

  • We were using this well into 2010 or so. Better audio quality than an FM tuner as long as the electromagnet wasn't overheating.

    The best option though was to get an inline FM injector and plug it in where the antenna plugged in. Perfect audio.

  • Check out NixOS. It can build qcow images from scratch for you to import into proxmox

    I have 8 bare-metal servers and I do everything automated with NixOS, I rarely ever access the servers directly.

    Here are the nixos configs for my DHCP server and kubernetes servers that you can use as a base.

    For what it's worth, Ive been using Ansible off and on at work for 8 years, and I think it's pretty outdated and clunky these days, there are much smarter ways to manage workloads such as kubernetes, cloud-init, terraform, and NixOS. If you don't want to get into Kubernetes then definitely learn NixOS.

  • The nice thing is that NixOS will keep your setup and all your tweaks if you ever need to reinstall. It's designed to solve that exact problem.

    One way of switching over would be to carry over your homedir and just starting with migrating packages and config as a first step.

  • Some industries are saying they are completely unviable around 40-60%. See the recent Gamers Nexus video about the computer hardware industry.

    Some companies can survive 10-30% by cutting margins and passing to the consumer, but there are entire classes of product where demand will just evaporate if you raise prices 20-30%, especially budget and value products.

    It's impossible to reshore manufacturing to stop this too. Every single economist is saying that there is a 0% chance that the way Trump has weaponized tariffs will cause any meaningful production in the US. The only outcome from this is empty shelves and stagflation.
