Not technology.

I will be looking into AMD Halo Strix' performance as a poor man's GPU to run LLMs and some scientific codes locally.

https://wiki.debian.org/ZFS has nice docs. I would practice in nonproduction first if you're unfamiliar with zfs.

No hardware RAID. Use zfs, if you can. Mirror the boot SSD. I would use a stripe over mirror and 4 HDDs. Two drives are not enough redundancy. Use enterprise or nearline drives, if you can. Debian is great, you can install Proxmox on top of it, but from the sound of it plain Debian would work for you.

It is a widely known word. All greentexts are always 100% true.

Have you read it? There is nothing automatic in it, and there are plenty of weasel words. That's by design, since the US didn't want to entrap itself.

Which is why it can't join as long as the frozen conflict in Transnistria persists.

Right now Moldova is being prepped to take the role of Ukraine once it's exhausted. Articles like these are an instance of a disinformation campaign it accuses the other side is doing.

https://www.debian.org/ports/mips/ supports Loongson 3 so it seems everything I'd need is in the green.

In a Linux distribution for a particular architecture all code is compiled to the underlying CPU architecture. Packages can also be built from source.

Proprietary software is different since it doesn't give you the freedom to build things from scratch. There are emulators, of course, but they all fundamentally suck.

I would buy it. No US fed backdoors, just Chinese ones, and I'm not in China.

If it runs Linux no need to translate anything. It's been a while since I ran Unix on a MIPS CPU but it should just work.
