The tell for me that it’s real is the fact that both ends of each manicotti noodle are the same direction. Ai would never get that perfectly right.

Also, it turns out Coatimundi are a type of mammal most common to North and South America. They are related to raccoons:

I’m guessing that’s a pop-up version? Like a good truck but longer term. Maybe they are there for a large term event or business. My brain’s thinking of stuff like the pop-up towns that appear near mines or big businesses that have thousands of employees.
Granted, it could just be a hella jank McDonald’s lol.

Maybe instead of starting with a hole, one player gets to choose which 2x2 to remove? It would have to be early on to ensure there is always a few empty 2x2s to choose from.
So maybe black chooses the 2x2 to remove and then white makes their first move. That way black gets a bit of an advantage since white moves first.

I think the article is alright. It has good info for people that know nothing about Stardew’s history regarding updates. Sure, for those of us heavily into Stardew it’s all stuff we already know, but most players don’t follow news like we do.

I looked it up and a 451 error is entirely on the website and not on the user.

- Comment on Bunnyhop elsewhere, streamers: EA are making Battlefield 6 more strategic, less run-and-gun following the beta 3 weeks ago:
As a person who prefers shooters that are more tactical and methodical, I don’t mind those changes. Granted, I don’t really play battlefield that much.

This is good news 😊
Browsing Steam on an ultrawide monitor leaves an awful lot of unused space.

Hmmmm… In that scene he was lying. He very much did care. So the meme is really saying that you do care about what people with anime profile pics say, but you just don’t want to admit it… 😆

Good forbid someone wants to read the text lol
The English text needs some drop shadow or something…
- Comment on US | Three more victims of 9/11 identified, almost 24 years later 5 weeks ago:
Was confused at first from the title, wondering how they found new victims (one of them being on the plane). The article is about how they identified the remains of two people recovered after 9/11.
Apparently there are still over a thousand victims still not identified. 😟
- Comment on Thingiverse uses AI to block production of ghost guns 1 month ago:
My guess, and confirmed by another comment, is that the ai only flags posts for review. Then the moderators have to manually check the post.
Honestly, it’s not a terrible use of AI in my opinion. Considering posts practically never change, they really only have to scan each post once. The mod can either flag it as safe or remove it. They are probably just running image and text pattern recognition on previously banned posts to flag newly submitted posts.

What is the range of a device like this? Is there any chance of using a mesh system like that if you’re not in a city? I’m about 30 miles away from a few towns, so there’s little chance for repeaters to be nearby.
- Comment on Looking for recommendations for a multi home NAS solution 1 month ago:
After all the other comments and recommendations, I’ll likely do something like that. Haven’t looked up Reatic yet, but Tailscale looks to be what I need.
- Comment on Looking for recommendations for a multi home NAS solution 1 month ago:
This will be for long term storage of files like family photos and document safe keeping, i.e. “let’s dump all our important files here so we don’t lose them”. Two people writing to the same file will practically never happen.
- Comment on Looking for recommendations for a multi home NAS solution 1 month ago:
Our needs are flexible in terms of how the backup is performed in the technical sense, so I would imagine any of the feature rich NAS units can do what we need in some way or another.
- Comment on Looking for recommendations for a multi home NAS solution 1 month ago:
I def need a massive drive just for me lol. I have multiple drives loaded full of files including an 8TB drive.
- Comment on Looking for recommendations for a multi home NAS solution 1 month ago:
We will likely read data from every location. That way people can access the data at full speed using WLAN
- Comment on Looking for recommendations for a multi home NAS solution 1 month ago:
I’ll keep Syncthing in mind.
I’ll probably go with an all in one NAS just to keep things simple for the less tech savvy people of my family.
- Comment on Looking for recommendations for a multi home NAS solution 1 month ago:
There will probably be several pools. Each household will get a private pool. Then there will be a shared pool for stuff like family photos. Finally I’ll have the second drive as my own pool. So there will be 4-5 pools on the small drive.
Each NAS will be identical so all data is mirrored to each one. That way if a NAS dies or something worse happens like a house burning down, we won’t lose any files.
- Comment on Looking for recommendations for a multi home NAS solution 1 month ago:
I’ll keep that in mind. Since you’ve pointed it out I can definitely see the technical difficulties of a system like that.
One thought I just had: could each individual NAS unit have its own 1:many? For example, the NAS in one house controls the backup for those people and the NAS in the second house controls the backup for them. That way each household can still access their own files through a wire if needed.

Having read some stuff on that drama, I got looking into Asustor NAS units. Their entry one looks perfect for our general use and has all the apps and features I think I could use.
- Comment on Looking for recommendations for a multi home NAS solution 1 month ago:
That would be nice. Sadly, it doesn’t seem like there’s enough relevant people here on Lemmy to keep it active.
- Comment on Looking for recommendations for a multi home NAS solution 1 month ago:
Is Synology still a good option? I remember them getting some flack a bit ago. Something about hard drives I think?
I’ll kept a look out for deals like that.
- Comment on Looking for recommendations for a multi home NAS solution 1 month ago:
I took a look at Nextcloud and really like it from a usability standpoint.
My question is what would my hardware options be? A form factor like the off the shelf NAS units is ideal since they will have to go on shelves next to the routers. If it was just me, a server rack would be fine, but I gotta keep it clean looking and on the smaller side. Also, I would like to keep the hardware price per house not much higher than the $300 range (excluding hard drives).
- Comment on Looking for recommendations for a multi home NAS solution 1 month ago:
Those are good points to clear up.
- At this point, 2 houses, but likely 3 by next year.
- The first two will be a short drive away, but the third will be hours away.
- The houses are on 100/50Mb fiber. Very stable internet.
- Me being the tech person, I’ll access them every way that’s available. For the rest of my family I’ll set them up either with a hardwire or local network.
- We will be using them as part of a 3-2-1 backup for all of our files like photos or documents. I’ll be using the second drive for occasional video backup storage.
- The shared drive will probably be 5-10 TB, depending on how much storage each household wants. The second drive for me will be around 20TB.
