- Comment on Stop cramming everything onto one Pi: treat your home lab like a tiny ISP - hardware, stack, backups and an update plan 3 days ago:
I’ve been running my Proxmox in suicide raid configuration for a year now and have only procrastinated this far because I can’t fix my TrueNAS replication tasks… and my proxmox machine is over the 1/2 full mark
- Comment on Google confirms AI search will have ads, but they may look different 2 weeks ago:
Let me guess, the AI overviews will become the ads? I think they’ve already started making up bullshit to lean in favor of the advertisers. So frustrating
- Comment on Help with home server plan 3 weeks ago:
I’m in the US so I was able to snag a lot of stuff for like $150 usd off eBay. Though my first home server was actually a mini PC which was only like $100 and is super power efficient, only using like 10-15 watts. The biggest downside though of that is that is only has two NVME slots and no SATA, because it’s a mini PC.
- Comment on Help with home server plan 3 weeks ago:
- buy a cheap atx case with >= 4 3.5” drive bays
- buy a mini itx mb with like 4/5 SATA ports or however you want. Btw pcie SATA hbas exist
- throw a 6000 or preferably 9000 series and onwards intel chip in there. Anything before that will have poor efficiency
- 16 gb ram min
- put proxmox on it

Can you ID where this guy lives using OSINT? Even just the location of his house is enough if you don’t know his name. Maybe get local police interested.

- Comment on Charlie Kirk suspect is a gun-loving Trump supporter 2 months ago:
This is not the same Tyler Robinson that is in custody for the shooting of Charlie Kirk. Property records and addresses show the donor residing at a different address than the shooter. The shooter never donated to Trump or any other presidential candidate.
- Comment on Plex got hacked. 2 months ago:
It’s possible to use salts, peppers, and password lengthening algorithms that repeatedly hash a password like 100,000 times. So yes, it’s possible to do so securely.
- Comment on generation 2 months ago:
the sad thing is that you can’t really avoid these things irl by not using them. It’s ubiquitous and you will always be indirectly impacted by them in a non-marginal way. Even if you have a phone with you during the day you’re affected since you don’t experience boredom like a normal person does.

- Comment on What’s the plan? 2 months ago:
show up early, so you only have to be around 1-2 people for an hour or so. Volunteer to drive shotgun to help pickup the wings. Arrive with maybe an hour left, then eat the wings and celery sticks in silence in the back. Talk to a few people, mostly just listening. Then leave at 10:15 sharp because you have work early tomorrow.

- Comment on Tesla withheld data, lied, and misdirected police and plaintiffs to avoid blame in Autopilot crash 3 months ago:
Agreed, if there was concern about the data falling into the wrong hands then there’s many different ways to secure the data (encryption, masking, hardening) besides just deleting it. Tesla’s strategy here totally foregoes any typical data retention lifecycle like you mention, which is usually to delete old data that has little to no benefit besides just adding additional risk (or if there’s no space left). Plus you have to take into account the additional consequences you take on by deleting the data locally such as not being in compliance with regulations, and potentially risking sanctions or heavy fines.
