and theres a PunPun adaptation in the works too, that’s going to be pretty dark, even if they heavily censor it.

you could have one plex master server accessing multiple storage servers over SMB/NFS without much hassle, that allows combined libraries and more or less seamless access if the network and connection between servers is up to scratch as it would require reasonably high bandwidth, but multiple separate servers is a bit of a pain as you cant easily combine them and you would have to have split libraries AFAIK.

If you follow the homebrewing socials world there was a flurry of AI vs human beer recipe videos and posts a while ago.

in short, yes most of these Ai tools can spit out a workable beer recipe, but as expected it’s more or less just the average of multiple published recipes and not particularly special, and if you ask it to tweak the recipe for a particular quality it falls apart quickly due to a lack of source data for the effects of all possible variables.

Adapt more of the books you cowards!

Unidan was a legend, he will be missed.

the radxa penta is a JMB585 connected with pcie gen3x1.

They do overheat though, might need a heatsink and some ZFS tuning.

They still push their exclusive features and services in the UI’s pretty hard, but I’m OK with that while they are making moves like this, and letting you have third party cameras mixed into their ecosystem reasonably easily.

Very happy to see this, I thought they were going to be pulling away from self-hostable and more flexible solutions a few years back when they stopped developing things like Unifi Video, but they seem to have made many positive movements towards openness, true ownership and self-hostability lately.

I stopped using Hotmail when gmail launched and I was given one of the early invites from a tech relative. I have the welcome email from '04.

But now I’m looking at moving my emails to a self hosted solution because they have used everything in my >20year email history for Ai and I don’t want that to continue into the future.

I have one, replaced a perfectly good Fold3 that I’ve had since launch. but I’ve put it in a fat case to take up some of the camera thickness.

But I wish they would do something like a Fold LITE without the cameras. Just put a basic lower end camera on the back with no bump. I don’t care if it’s only as good as an old Note 9 (their last flagship with a flat back!) that’s more than enough camera for me and I like using my fold in tablet mode flat on a desk.

If it is possible to make small amounts of those elements on purpose as a byproduct, it can help to offset the costs of the reactor in some small way and help with isotopic/nuclear research in general. But that can be done in pretty much any fusion reactor design to some degree.

As for Alchemy of the future, If in a thousand years we can just built whatever materials we need (including potential ultra heavy stable elements) from raw subatomic particles we don’t even need mining, just gather up some hydrogen/helium from space and transmute it into whatever you need. food, fuel, structures, etc.

a lot longer than that.

Synthetic corundum, spinel and others have been around for over 120 years, and optically transparent uncoloured sapphire glass for over 80 years. They are just aluminium oxides.

ALON is just the new hotness, and not as good as some others in terms of visible light transparency.

Aluminium Oxide (Al₂O₃) can be crystal clear too, it’s just Sapphire, I have a chunk of it on my wrist right now, looks pretty clear to me, and almost as hard as a diamond.

any particle accelerator can do that just incredibly slowly.

Alchemy of that sort has been doable for generations, it’s just WILDLY impractical!

Honestly, after watching both animes and playing through both games several times, I prefer SG0 anime too but as far as the VN goes I think I prefer the original there.

I love the story arc of SG0, but in the game makes it too easy to hit the bad endings and cut the whole story really short. They did it very well in the anime.

The ending of SG0… after the credits. so satisfying.

Yea, JF is getting mature enough for more people to transition.

I’ve been running it side by side with Plex for about 2 years now, and have a couple of clients (and all of my personal use) on JF, but a few users either cant run JF directly on their hardware (and don’t want to cast every time) or they are older and would struggle to learn a new app without some hands on practice with it.

The newest Plex UI update on some devices is causing some problems so I think I’ll have a few more users moving to JF in the near future.

It’s a bit of a ram hog compared to plex but that’s not a major issue.

unraid is great but on a little 4 bay mini nas with limited expandability you don’t get much advantage for the money, it’s better for larger arrays and lots of mixed disk sizes, and on systems where you can put in lots of SSDs to make a decently fast caching setup die to unraid slower non-striped array architecture.

On a 4 bay mini-NAS I’d go with the free truenas option and just make it a RaidZ1 of 4 disks.

For a beginner, OMV might be simpler, and for paid options, HexOS is probably more beginner friendly than raw TrueNas.

A free alternative to Unraid is Snapraid, but thats more of a roll-your-own solution, not an OS you can just install.

way back in the early days of Wifi (802.11B was the cutting edge magic future technology) I had a large antenna hooked up to my laptop PCMCIA wifi card and could pick up some open networks from a few neighbours away. I used to set it up and leave winmx running on my laptop to download all sorts of garbage.

My home internet at the time was up-to 512Kbps satellite downlink (usually around 200k and lots of packet loss and very high ping) with a ~56k dial up uplink which was also the failover when the satellite was too weak, so it was very asymmetrical and unreliable.

This is semi-rural Australia in 1999/2000 and was the best we could get until we got a 3G connection that usually got 1.5meg down and 500k up on a weak HSPA connection, that place didn’t get 8/1 ADSL a couple of years later around 2005/6. A couple of streets away there were already on cable and better DSL lines were available so I assume I was connecting to one of those.

Over the weak long range Wifi connection with a makeshift “cantenna” that probably wasn’t quite right I usually got around 250k symmetrical if I recall correctly, which was really nice compared to the satellite link despite the lower maximum speed.

the most I think you could do would be log IPs for malicious or litigious purposes, I don’t think you could really do anything like malware injection in this case.

don’t use Brave.

Yes its a decent piece of software made by some properly smart industry experts but I have zero faith in them on a personal trust level. The CEO (despite his amazing resume and past accomplishments) is an arsehole, a bigot, a crypto-scammer and a science denier.
