  I think if you didn’t assign a tag on the Release Profile it applies to all series.

  Oh yea, I knew I forgot to cancel something after switching my gaming pc to Linux.

  Fun fact! Timezones don’t just break at 1 hour increments. timeanddate.com/…/time-zones-interesting.html

  I have never done RAID over USB, but have done various JBOD setups using SCSI. I think the general idea is that USB having such an easily disconnected connector plus the latency overhead on translating SATA to USB to SATA again means you have a higher chance of corruption. SCSI setups typically have connectors with locking mechanisms to prevent easy disconnection.

  If eSATA is an option it might be better for the performance and it has a latching mechanism to prevent easy disconnection. You can get a 2-port eSATA PCI card for about 50 bucks.

  I know tailscale prefers being installed on every machine but not all of my machines are even capable of running custom code. I use a single tailscale router that published my internal network to tailscale and if the internet is down everything still works fine internally.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨running Media Services on NAS or separate server⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  With TrueNas you can do it two ways: ISCSI disks that are mounted to the VMs or via NFS. With ISCSI you won’t have access to the data from the TrueNas side as the data will be stored as a volume file. With NFS you get the best of both worlds as you’ll be able to access the files via other TrueNas services like SMB/SFTP. I have my Jellyfin/Plex running via NFS and have few issues, though I’ve not tested it with large 4k/8k videos yet. I mostly run 1080p.

  That side view is pure xcom/fallout shelter. I’m here for it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why doesn't Sega care about Sonic?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This reminded me of this video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=IwTXCwqurNQ

  Sega doesn’t care because it’s now owned by Sammy and Sammy wants the good PR from Sega.

  +1 for Backblaze. They have a convenient backup software too that works great. I backup my parents laptop using it, and use their S3 storage for my NAS backups.

  The rng mechanics are definitely frustrating for some but the game is way deeper. Getting to 46 rolls the credits but you are left with so many unanswered questions. Some people stop there and feel satisfied, but others are curious about the world.

  My thoughts are to try to push through the initial frustration with rng on the drafting side. You’ll eventually find that there are Roguelite mechanics to help you along, and it will feel less rng-dependent.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A noob question about VPSs and bandwidth⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This would depend on whether the limit is defined as ingress or egress or both. For example AWS has free ingress traffic from the internet but there is a cost for egress traffic to the internet.

  A better solution would be to find a unmetered service, which means that you have a fixed transfer speed (e.g. 500 Mbit) but have unlimited bandwidth. OVH offers this in their VPS products.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Technology Connections' thoughts on Mastodon⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve been looking for a new instance to join due to various reasons. Ended up setting up and account somewhere and spending 2 hours manually copying over various settings only to find my Moshidon client won’t even connect with that new instance. Normal people are just going to quit when that happens.
