I also use an air mouse with keyboard Like this

I run a linux HTPC that runs Kodi so once it’s configured, you can just use the arrow buttons to navigate, not just the air mouse.

I always liked racing games combined with violence like Carmageddon and Twisted metal! Others along those lines are RC Pro Am, Spy Hunter, Road Rash 3D.

$200 for a refurbished 20TB drive on Newegg

The new ones were on sale for $270 so around $10-15 per TB. The best I can find is $40-50 per TB for SSD. Certainly not 7times more expensive but more like 3-5.

Glad to know that others still love this movie! Bill Paxton nailed his Hudson character to a T! This is the apex of 80s movies that cross over between action/comedy sci-fi/horror genres and still tell an awesome story! H R Gigers alien designs were also creepy as fuck and on point. Hats off to James Cameron and Sigourney Weaver as well, and even Paul Riser nailed his sleazbag corporate stooge character. There is not one bad scene in this epic movie!

Good catch! I went in my settings and apparently the bot account was checked. Not sure how that happened. I unchecked it.

I feel old reading the replies.

Good point. I’m leaning toward running the RAID as part of the OS rather than having either a dedicated NAS OS like xigmaNAS or TrueNAS, since I’d like to still use the computer for things outside just the NAS specialty that those offer. I’m still looking into the snapRAID which is more of a backup rather than RAID option. I have 4 HDs right now and have room up to 6, and that’s all I really need. With btrfs RAID, if my motherboard fails or if I have to reinstall or change the OS, will any new system with a different motherboard and operating system that recognizes btrfs still be able to read the existing RAID array on the drives, without needing previous hardware/firmware/OS info?

Thanks, I’ve had Redhat/Fedora and Ubuntu/Mint systems, so this should not be an issue. What flavor of Linux are you running?

I’d like to set up RAID1 or 10 with SATA drives so btrfs sounds doable. Although Ars gave btrfs a pretty good drubbing here a few years ago: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2021/09/examining-btrfs-linuxs-perpetually-half-finished-filesystem/

Thanks, reading up on ZFS now on Ars https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2020/05/zfs-101-understanding-zfs-storage-and-performance/

Sounds like I could dedicate a server machine to run a zRAID 1,2 or 3 with ZFS drives running on Linux or TrueNAS? Or were you thinking something a bit different for a setup?

Thanks, have you used any in particular like SnapRAID or TrueNAS or something else?

Like others said, this is an evaporative cooler aka swamp cooler. It takes energy to convert liquid water to water vapor. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaporative_cooler

lemmy.ca should be mentioned. It’s like midwest.social, super chill…

There is a small audience for it but moderating it is going to be very difficult. Like others said, you will need to host your own instance and you will getting various levels of creepy folks who will be difficult to control. Eyeblech, make my coffin, etc did serve a purpose to document some of the worst parts of humanity, but it also attracts some of the worst people.

I use my index finger and my pinky with my middle finger curling around my ring finger. As a white foreigner, I show them horizontally on the east coast of the US like an E and vertically on the west coast like a W to try to fit in better. ;)
