Been using ubuntu for almost 15 years. My annoyance with snap made me just switch to bazzite (gaming focused fedora atomic ). Takes a little getting used to since its immutable but im liking it alot more so far.

Been running factory refurbished. Thats the important part. It must say factory refurbs. Ive had one failure in 5-6 years and was warranty replaced

I assume youve seen trashs guides. But yea I get it. Im sure your aware reencoding can kill quality too. Many grab the blueray and then reencode that to hevc just depends what works

Why dont you just redownload hevc on whats available and convert the rest?

Nowadays thats less than 10 drives. I literally just ordered 10 20 tb drives to fill my second nas.

I have two synolygy 1019+ with ds 517 expansion units. That 10 drives for each set. Technically i could set that up to have about 400 tb usable.

I buy factory recertified drives for about 200 ea. with a couple spares.yea its a chunk of change but not too crazy.

I have multiple friends with more than a pb.

Thats about a few days worth of downloads for me. Over 150tb raw 80 tb used

Factory refurbs. I have 3 nas boxes full of drives from there. No issues

18434 Will never forget it. So many good memories there

I think you can generate static html reports from tautulli

Yea. Choices have consequences

Being a self taught programmer (6502 assembly on a vic-20) All my first few jobs were basically here are the manual you’re the new (banyan vines,netware,sunos,oracle, sql server etc) expert.

My son got a infosys degree and all his jobs required additional certs. Helpng him navigate that was mind numbing

What i will say. Develop your network full stop. I got every single good fit job by references. All my shit jobs were headhunters or cold applications.

As far as tech goes. Everything is so nuanced and dependant today i feel it make everything overly complicated and harder to baseline and run. Let alone debugging.

I am sooo glad i just retired (early) and dont have the need to delve into current tech for anything now besides hobby stuff.

100% this. Long long time portainer user. With multiple upgrade failures where it would not move my container setup forward i moved to dockge after it got remote system support. The difference in simplicity is night and day.

Love your books and have bought the all book bundle. Please keep doing what youre doing. Good stuff

I love grav. Yes its a chore intially but ive move 30+ site from wp to it and all my clients love it

I do the same. If i like them i download the discog. Gotta do something with 200tb nas

Well i think its a little of both. Technically i think epa overstepped its authority, but CISA is the exact place it should come from. Ideally any agency like this would work with CISA who has the mandate. Its certainly complicated when you get into an agency “making law” and theres a case in front of the supreme court now that could disrupt all of that.

Joplin server also will use a file based storage instead of the db. And db then is only used for users

I use joplin as i share notes and collaborate with my wife. Obsidian etc dont do that. Id love to be on obsidian as i really like it but sharing notebooks is mandatory

Any ideas about linux/wine support?

I finished deliver us the moon (fun game) The gunk Jusant
