Using this ended being a massive pain in the ass for me. I could file the federal taxes online, but after I submitted it and attempted to file my state taxes online it said I couldn't since I lived in NYC and made more than 75k/yr and I'd have to mail them in since it's impossible to file only your state taxes online due to the IRS' requirements.

I haven't used my printer in years so it was a hassle just to print out 5 pages and mail them half way across the country. It also delayed getting my refund by about a month.

Because it's funny to laugh at insane people

Threadripper already accomplished all of this years ago. My TR2970WX has 24 cores/48 threads, 48 PCI-E lanes, and it supports ECC and non-ECC RAM. My AsRock Rack board has BMC support as well.

The Threadripper series was the perfect workstation CPU. I've had mine for a few years and it can handle anything I throw at it, it can easily transcode 2-3 4K videos while doing multiple other things.

It wasn't cheap though, it was like $650 on sale, originally like a grand or so.

Yeah, but I should be able to have them separate as well like I can in every other Linux distro. In TrueNAS they force you to have them in separate subnets for some reason.

Russia, or possibly China and North Korea.

I agree, the VM management could be easier. I don't understand why I can't have two NICs in the same subnet as long as they have different IPs.

The bigger annoyance for me was there was no way to tell what disk is attached where in the VM device listings since it only shows the boot order and not labels or paths.

He just chills there on the screen, dick out 24/7.

Regardless of what they tell you, if you care about uptime, you ensure this yourself. I feel this is 60% the company's fault and 40% Cloudflare's.

Alright, let's not dogpile onto this, everyone.

I agree. It's shitty for Cloudflare to just straight up destroy this company's DNS, but also it seems like the company violated the ToS. They had about two weeks to migrate to something else, but instead they just continued debating with CF. Also, this company doesn't have a secondary DNS server in case CF ever went down? That's pretty stupid on their part. Redundant systems are key, I hope they learned that lesson haha

Q1: No it shouldn't matter as long as you didn't import the pool using device names (sda, sdb, etc...). If you're using labels or UUIDs (the better option for portability sake). If they do happen to use device names, just export the pool and then reimport it on the same system using labels or UUIDs.

Q2: It should work just fine assuming you're not using device names for your pools

Q3: it's just as robust as FreeBSD's implementation. Once again, see the answer to Q1.

Q4: IMO virtualizing your NAS just adds more headaches and performance overhead compared to running it on bare metal.

Out of my years running TrueNAS on and off, I've always had issues with it when doing anything other than using it purely as a storage box. I tried 24.04 a few weeks ago, thinking that most of the issues I had originally when SCALE was launched would be resolved. They weren't. So I went back to Arch w/OpenZFS...again

I volunteered at a shelter for two years and it's definitely easy for some people (those that don't give a fuck about animals): I was volunteering there one day and this guy came in with a happy and healthy looking Samoyed and said "I want to have her put down, she bit my kid". Luckily the shelter refused to do so.

They put a plunger-looking appendage on a chicken's ass and discovered that after this was done it walked more like a T-Rex does...seriously.

You're confusing "cooking temp" with "internal temp".

My first thought was "So that's where RFK Jr got it from"

It was my replacement for dear old WinAmp when I first switched to Linux.

...but so will the a large part of the US

As someone that grew up a half hour from Atlantic City, and has to go there frequently as a transit hub...you're correct. The casinos are a sad, sad place. Especially during the week.

How did the owners/directors even stand being in there? 🤢

Sad.
