My dude, I understand your unwillingness, but docker is just a fancy new way of saying "install apps without it being a major PITA". You just find the app you want on docker hub or some other docker repo, you pull the image, you run it, et voila, you have a container. No worrying about python suddenly breaking, or about running 5 commands in a row to spin up an app (I used to do this, including the whole python rain dance, to run home assistant. I feel stupid now).

Decluttarr actually has a section to set up their container:

https://github.com/ManiMatter/decluttarr#method-1-docker

It's step by step, all you have to do is get docker installed on your machine, then copy paste that text into a file, and run the docker command mentioned in the same directory as the file.

Trust me, you want to learn this, because after the first 15 minutes of confusion, you suddenly have the holy grail to self hosting right at your fingertips. It takes me all of 5 minutes to add a new service to my homelab all because it's so easy with docker. And it's so ubiquitous and popular! TrueNAS SCALE uses docker for all its apps, the idea of containers essentially reshaped Linux desktop to be what it is today, with flatpaks and all.

I mean, newer server-grade models with independent actuators can easily saturate a SATA 3 connection. As far as speeds go, a raid-5 or raid-6 setup or equivalent should be pretty damn fast, especially if they start rolling out those independent actuators into the consumer market.

As far as latency goes? Yeah, you should stick to solid state...but this breathes new life into the HDD market for sure.

Usually a React dev, have been some other stuff, but generally yeah, websites. Anything from resort chain websites to complex internal applications. Unit tests were optional at best in most jobs I've been at. I've heard of jobs where they're pulled off, but from what I've seen, those are the exception and not the rule.

Edit: given the downvotes on my other comment, I should add that this is both anecdotal and unopinionated from my behalf. My opinion on unit testing is "meh", if I'm asked to do tests, I'll do tests, if not, I won't. I wouldn't go out of my way to implement them, say, on a personal project or most work projects, but if I was tasked to lead certain project and that project could clearly benefit from them (i.e. Fintech, data security, high availability operation-critical tools), I wouldn't think twice about it. Most of what I've worked on, however, has not been that operation-critical. What few things were critical in my work experience, would sometimes be the only code being unit tested.

I honestly don't think I'd notice a real world difference between 4G and H+ in most scenarios except for, maybe, video. I never understood the hype for 5G, especially considering the horrendous frequency limitations that imply line of sight AND very small coverage radii.

How's performance on that setup? I own the case and am looking to do the exact same vdev setup this next year, but am wondering if the wider vdevs negatively impact performance in any noticeable way. Also wondering if 128gb of ram is too little for that kind of setup with 20tb drives, I feel like I might have to find out the hard way...

The article makes no mention to the molecules only working on cancer cells. The molecules, according to the article, attach to cell membranes, and then the molecules are jiggled to blow up the cells. That process doesn't mention an ability to differentiate between cancer and non-cancer cells. The technique was tried on a culture growth, where a hammer would have the same results. It was also tried on mice, where half were left cancer-free, but little is said about the process, the specifics of the results, or what happened to the other half of mice.

We all get the goal of cancer research, OP is just doubtful that this achieves it, as am I, as well as anyone who's read good news about eradicating cancer in the past few decades. Most are duds or go nowhere even if initially promising, so...

The problem is the content being uploaded to these platforms serves a real and meaningful public, community purpose. Reddit has always been a knowledge base for a plethora of different subjects, YouTube has all sorts of content that has historical importance to the internet, as well as a trove of educational content that is unparalleled in size and quality.

I take issue with that, because it's not the company's content, it's just their platform. The content is vastly more important than the platform, but the companies act as if it's theirs. They do everything based off what the community has built on their platforms, it's their true essence and what actually attracts people.

In the specific case of YouTube, I'd say that content is irreplaceable and indispensable. While it's true that it is a privately owned platform and we don't have much of a say on its direction, I truly believe the content is so important that the only viable path forward to prevent its loss, is to take said platform off private hands. I don't believe it'll ever happen, but it is what should happen, as it's literally impossible to back up YouTube, just like it's currently impossible to compete with YouTube.

I am constantly amazed at this for the US. I'm from Honduras, and most dentist stuff is like 20 bucks, with some more intricate things running you maybe 60 to 90 usd. I've literally never spent more than that on a dentist visit in my life, and I've been to at least 5 dentists in all 30 years, stayed loyal to two of them because they have been so good, they're the kind of people you just stick to.

most sane ppl already know fb's crap isn't good for your data

Bold of you to assume they care enough to do something about it. It took half a second for more than half of my friends to jump onto threads when it launched. None of them ever considered the fediverse before that. People just flock to whatever the big companies do.

I'm too retarded to understand SMART values so, I 100% have read errors on them, I have no idea what the numbers mean, though, so I can't say how bad it is. I don't see critical failures or unrecoverable errors being reported on them, so I don't sweat it too much.

You can get 20tb seagate exos drives for ~$15/tb on ebay, sometimes on Amazon as well.
