Have been using TrueNAS for 13+ years since the FreeNAS 9.x days. Can attest to its bulletproof-ness in my case.

Would second asking in the iX forums. I've managed to get replication help directly from iX staff before when using the forum. You shouldn't have this issue, and you will find answers.

I've moved my disks to a completely new machine with fresh install and then import my config, reboot and everything is as it was. I've also done the same without my config and imported the pool with no problems, just need to recreate shares, and any jails (a feature which I no longer use) would need to be reconfigured to be 100% functional.

Must of have

There only problem being that 90% of webpages fail to load properly without JS, not to mention the ones that depend on features that aren't available LW enhanced protection enabled. Each page I visit, I have to create exceptions or they sit there blank.

It's :checksnotes: sarcasm.

windows phone was a joke

No. It was leaps and bounds ahead of everyone else. They just sat on their hands and didn't do anything with it, allowing Google, RiM and Apple to steamroll them.

And to blame Microsoft (which -- don't get me wrong -- is hugely evil and truly is the cause behind many of the problems you properly identify) for all of the tech problems without a hat tip to IBM is missing some important details. IBM showed the tech world that if you use your war chest to drag out a legal battle long enough, you will eventually get a president in power (Reagan) that you own enough to dismiss all claims. That's how Microsoft got off without even a fine for all their antitrust violations. They played the long game and George W. waved a hand, making the enforcement effort go away.

Exactly how my cats do. Gums must be involved.

For sure, but I worry that Amazon would see that as just cause to terminate my account, and I have some video and music purchases I'd lose access to. In the end, maybe that's the cost of safety in this marketplace, but it sure is getting hard to shop these days...

I have a screenshot of the original estimated delivery date of this Friday. I'll reach out Monday if (when) the GPUs don't arrive.

Still, it stings, because when I made the purchase, the GPU I want was still available from other sellers for close to MSRP, but now they are all over by more than 25%, and I'm not paying more than they're worth (which, arguably, I was already doing).

I agree that this needs to be out there. I'm not fully tapped into the overclockers and other enthusiast forums/communities, but I do follow tech news closely. I've read about a lot of scams, but this one had slipped by, if it was ever reported on where my eyeballs are reading.

I just never considered that I had to worry about sellers on Amazon. In hindsight, it's awfully naive of me to think they are this big and have a handle on fraud. Like put forth in Masnick's Impossibility Theorem: Content Moderation At Scale Is Impossible To Do Well, and that includes managing fraud on a marketplace.

Oh, man! What a horrible surprise that would be to receive a chip from 2011 when you're expecting the BEST GAMING CPU EVERRRRR.

I won't lie. I was looking at that CPU on Amazon a few days ago and noticed that the "sold by Amazon" one was being undercut by a third party (which COULD be totally legit) by $50. I think I am going to pause my tech purchases for a little bit.

Thanks for the link!

So many great titles in the comments. I'll add a few of mine:

Jill of the Jungle
Zaxxon
Heretic (Doom clone)
Stellar 7 (can't recall if shareware or if I just shared it)

"I am da Shaddo wahdiyah. Lessuh fight!"

RoTT WAS SO FUN! How about heretic, another Doom clone? The chicken weapon was a favorite of mine.

Long before

I agree that I was confused at first, until I remembered that any of the coalition countries (7 eyes?) has access to anything secret, they share with others that don't.

I just updated to 2.24.2 that specifically addresses this, but its back again.
