But seriously I probably have close to 100 TB of music, TV shows, movies, books, audiobooks, pictures, 3d models, magazines, etc.

Yeah the height difference would bug the snot outta me.

This would be a bitch to have to rebuild in a raid array. At some point a drive can get TOO big. And this is looking to cross that line.

I always thought these kind of keys looked cool. Especially the resin ones that have “stuff” in them. But are they functional? Like can you really type with them? I have a mechanical keyboard that spent a lot of time and money with switches, o-rings, lube, special south-facing shine through keycaps, and probably several hundred hours coding in QMK. And then duplicated so I have one at home and work. But I probably spend 80-100 hours a week (work and play) in front of my keyboards so they have to be functional first. I was curious if anyone actually types on these.

So its a giant sterling engine?

Well technically everything is solar in some form or another.

Fossil fuels - dead plants that got their energy from the sun Nuclear(fission) - Uses elements only created from the dying phases of a sun Hydro - Energy that’s created from the sun heating and moving water around Wind - same as above just air instead of water Geothermal - This one is trickier but planets are formed from dead stardust. I guess gravity fits in here somehow. Biomass - see fossil fuels but without as much waiting

The only one I can think of that isn’t solar is nuclear fusion. And this is essentially recreating a star.

Doing it once… how cute. You can always tell when someone only deals with enterprise level networking equipment. I’m not being critical, just realistic. Anything like this will eventually break. And in the weirdest ways imaginable.

The whole thing some like some giant check kiting scam or some weird looping Ponzi scheme. I’m going to invest money into your company so you can buy more of my products. Where is all the money coming from in the first place? Neither of these companies should be worth as much as they are.

This looks interesting since I already have my *arr stack in docker. Will give this a shot for sure.

I mean I get what you’re saying. And certain things I really do want in my house. But at this point I feel like we disagree on a definition which is just kind of silly. As someone else said that used the distinction of home-hosted and self-hosted. I like being in control of my stuff and I think we both agree on that.

They are failing.

I am running the software. I set it up. I maintain it. I can change it to whatever I want. It is therefore self-hosted.

So this is like a landlord “investing” in the renter for the renter to pay his rent.

Thank you. I was thinking the same thing. Some things it makes sense to host in your home. Things like large media, home automation, etc. Some things it doesn’t. Like DNS, service that require large amounts of egress (most home internet is very asymmetric), anything with a more public face.

Generally it boils down to privacy and reliability. If it’s private, keep it home. If it needs more reliability, put it on a VPS.

My home hardware is just not reliable enough to host something critical. I have redundant systems but it might take a bit to get stuff back.

This idea of it not being self hosted because it’s on somebody else’s computer is just weird.

Why is Grok not being charged with CSAM generation?

You already have.

We lowered your cholesterol. But you now have horns and crave the taste of human flesh.

Yeah Amazon will figure out a way to enshittify them for sure. Most. Likely with a subscription program for what should be totally standalone.

I have them. I also have a large monitor both at home and at work that the sweet spot for being able to focus is a narrow range toward the bottom. So I have a pair of single vision computer glasses that I either misplace or forget I’m still wearing when I leave the office to drive home. So I’m still constantly switching glasses. Yeah I know …. first world problems. I want my old eyes back. Getting old sucks.

I just want a technological fix for what my eyes used to be able to do on their own.
