  You might want to set up dynamic DNS for your domain. If you’re hosting from a residential internet connection then your ISP will change your address eventually. Ddclient can be used to report your current IP to your Registrar regularly, so if it changes the domain moves along with it.

  Build is solid, but here’s some suggestions.

  1. Another 8TB HDD. the reason being you can merge the 4 drives of the same size into a RAID5 array for data redundancy.
  2. An SSD to install the OS on.
  3. (Optional) More RAM check the mobo to see the max size and speed it can handle, and then fill every slot with that.

  I tried Joplin for a while but dropped it, too simple. Also tried Trilum, which I liked more but it’s still a very young project.

  Eventually, my Obsidian vault will go there, but not just yet.

  *Employees" are outsourced vendors that can’t afford to say no, most likely

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are the minimum or recommended requirements for a personal home server?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Rather than give you specific recommendations, here’s some guidance for parts Mobo: The more slots you have for RAM and storage, the better. CPU: literally anything. More cores and faster cores are ideal, but CPU requirements for these things are generally lower than a desktop. RAM: Buy 1 stick of the fastest stuff your motherboard can handle. When you’re ready or you start to see slowdown, buy another of the same stick. You can get far on 16-32GB, you won’t need much more until later. Storage: an SSD for the OS and one or more HDDs for storage. PSU: generally anything in the 500-700 range will be good. You’ll want more if you plan to put a GPU in, though.

  They got bought by a German game developer, Gunzilla Games.

  Gunzilla Games is an independent, innovative, and player-focused developer of AAA games.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Windows 10 LTSC – the version that won't expire for years⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve been using 10 LTSC for a few months now, it works great with the few Windows-only apps I still use. I mainly use it to organize my media library, but it’s not had any problems with the few games I’ve installed with Kernel-level anti-cheat (Destiny 2, Delta Force)

  I had to download the Xbox Accessories app to control my Elite controller, but that’s really it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Which co-op first person shooters would you recommend?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Call of Duty 3, World at War, Black Ops 1, Modern Warfare 3, and Black Ops 3 all have local split screen Co-op as an option

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Which co-op first person shooters would you recommend?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  There’s technically a reason.

  The OG Xbox version made by Bungie was ported to PC by Gearbox back in the day, and the port made some changes to the game in the process. More visual than gameplay oriented changes, but purists will say they ruined the game. The Gearbox port is what they built Halo Anniversary (the Xbox 360 remaster) and the TMMC version off of.

  Read 1984, if you haven’t already.

  This is exactly what The Party does through simplifying the Newspeak dictionary - targeting words to remove from the lexicon to make even communicating against The Party’s narrative impossible.

  The “Promised Land” should become like the Garden of Eden - Promised to God’s people, but God’s people fucked up and failed to follow his instructions, so they had to leave.

  Return it to the animals. As least they won’t send missile strikes wherever they think they should be “living”.
