What are you talking about? When was the last time you tried this?

And if you just want a NAS? It is really hard to go wrong with a 4 bay NAS from one of the reputable vendors (which may just be ugreen at this point?) as those tend to still come out cheaper than building it yourself and 4 disks means you can either play with fire with RAID5 or not be stupid and do RAID1.
Actually ASUS started to sell N100 motherboards with the CPU soldered on for $120
That plus a jonsbo N2 or N3, a few extra pieces, and its a few hundred dollars cheaper than the Ugreen options. Sure it will probably run Truenas instead of Ugreens custom truenas or whatever its built on, but that extra $300 is another 24TB hard drive or a HexOS lifetime subscription.
There's also always the classic buy an old mid sized tower for $100 and slap two massive hard drives in it
To be fair, IF tumblr had added the tipping feature while porn was huge on the site, it might have became Onlyfans.
OF wasn't always a porn site. It was trying to be a Patron that allowed adult content, but it became just a porn site.
I argue something similar would have happened to tumblr
I checked for you and good news!
Tap for spoiler
He isn't involved in much except investing in mobility aides and was apparently on the Planned Parenthood board for a while.
Quick search showed his most recent activity was being the single largest donor to Mark Kelly's 2020 senate campaign.
Completely normal progressive liberal stuff.
Imagine less off a proper BOD and more of a 3D Printable holder for 3.5 inch drives and no actual connections.
I was considering a mini ITX PC with just an external SAS to Sata PCI card. But at the rate of just building that I might end up just building a better tiny nas box with maybe a jonsbo case like the N3
That's basically what I'm going for.
How are you connecting the mini PC via SATA and how are you powering the BOD?
Its probably a parent company situation.
Lots of corpo structures are just large parent companies that actually just own a bunch of smaller companies so that the parent company gets the profits while the smaller companies make the risky products and can be bankrupted at any minute.
The company I work for does that. We just bought a couple companies that were competitors in a risky but profitable market. The full idea is that if one company gets sued to oblivion, we let that company die, move all the employees and customers to the backup company, and call it a day.
Capitalism baby!
Probably why they didn't do it in the first place.
They barely pay for moderation. Who is going to pay for that survey? And also why would they? Obviously most of the people on that site are under 18. That's when I used it.
What other demographic clicks the horny ads they run?
Do you fear technology
Oh yes! Greatly!
Windows
Ah, a different kind of fear was meant....
A 4060ti has been out long enough that you're fine with basically any main stream distro.
I think even the 50 series is fine now with most mainstream distros as well.
I still prefer arch based distros now for Nvidia cards and honestly, Fedora is great!
My rack is finished for now (because I'm out of money).
Last time I posted I had some jank cables going through the rack and now we're using patch panels with color coordinated cables!
But as is tradition, I'm thinking about upgrades and I'm looking at that 1U filler panel. A mini PC with a 5060ti 16gb or maybe a 5070 12gb would be pretty sick to move my AI slop generating into my tiny rack.
I'm also thinking about the PI cluster at the top. Currently that's running a Kubernetes cluster that I'm trying to learn on. They're all PI4 4GB, so I was going to start replacing them with PI5 8/16GB. Would those be better price/performance for mostly coding tasks? Or maybe a discord bot for shitposting.
Thoughts? MiniPC recs? Wanna bully me for using AI? Please do!
So I have rebuilt my Production rack with very little in terms of an actual software plan.
I host mostly docker contained services (Forgejo, Ghost Blog, OpenWebUI, Outline) and I was previously hosting each one in their own Ubuntu Server VM on Proxmox thus defeating the purpose.
So I was going to run a VM on each of these Thinkcentres that worked as a Kubernetes Cluster and then ran everything on that. But that also feels silly since these PCs are already Clustered through Proxmox 9.
I was thinking about using LXC but part of the point of the Kubernetes cluster was to learn a new skill that might be useful in my career and I don't know how this will work with Cloudflared Tunnels which is my preferred means of exposing services to the internet.
I'm willing to take a class or follow a whole bunch of "how-to" videos, but I'm a little frazzled on my options. Any suggestions are welcome.
Okay Kubernetes people. I am about to build my first cluster with 4 Raspberry Pi 4B 4gb models powered over POE.
I was going to host just some basic stuff on it (forgejo, a couple Ghost Blogs) and try hosting a Mastodon instance.
The documentation mentioned that I should not use the SD cards for database stuff. So I was going to get some super short thumb drives.
What is everyone else's set up look like with raspberry pis? And how important is matching hardware?
I'm sure I'll learn more from reading the documents but this is my concern right now.
(I was also required to upload a photo so have my Latitude D630)

That makes sense. I've never wanted to play bedrock so I've never tried.
Sorry other poster.
