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?

Literally had a show about it

Which was quote meta considering he literally had a show about it.

Man I wonder what Tim Allen’s been up to. I wonder if he did another show literally about performing masculinity where he literally has a show about performing masculinity in the show.

Man that’d be wild.

To me, Art is a catalyst for discussion, reflection, and expression.

So yes, I view internet trolling as a form of art. Maybe not capital A Art, but is it not the art of a sub culture? A way to catalyze discussion, debate, expression? A well crafted message that in often a hundred words or less that sparks endless debates and reactions?

Is the art the catalyst or the consequences?

Is the art the banana or my feelings about it?

To me I think its all art.

Leto certainly didn’t help, but historically this is how this is supposed to go.

The classic

offers to recycle

actually installs esoteric Linux distros

Classic!

Do you fear technology

Oh yes! Greatly!

Windows

Ah, a different kind of fear was meant…

Yeah I’m not doing it for the energy savings I’m doing it for personal comfort.

If I was really concerned about energy use at that scale I would simply not use a computer.

Asphalt holds up shockingly good considering it has to support fucking Semi trucks and recreational semi trucks.

Lots of blue checks, AI Avis, and Trade + Crosses in usernames.

I wouldn’t call that an official response.

A deeply concerning response from the CEO, but a forum response isn’t the same as an announcement about policy change or something.

Im mad but I’m willing to give them time to grapple with the realities of the box they opened to see how they attempt to close it.

I would have been happy with a corpo

“We will be reviewing our philanthropic practices going forward.”

With pure neutral tone and no mention of the politics.

That’s the corpo correct answer. And its concerning they didn’t give that.

No its about Framework, Right now, sponsoring fascists.

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!

I usually follow the craft computing video whenever I have to set it up. He has a document in the description with all the things you might need to passthrough a GPU but only like half are needed to passthrough an HBA

Proxmox wiki has a more concise guide IMO

It was really simple to do in Proxmox.

You will find no name brand HBAs in IT mode on eBay for half the price of Intel, Supermicro, Dell, Etc branded ones. Do not buy the no names. I spent a week flashing and reflashing some cheap one, cycling through cables, etc. Nothing.

My supermicro branded one worked absolutely no issue. And I think it was like $40

It probably took a total of 30 minutes to pass it through and build the VM and everything. It took a couple days to rebuild my data from my previous truenas server but I had 10 TB of data on 4 drives.

The only issues I’ve had have been my own reading comprehension in setting up truenas accounts.

Are you using truenas as the entire homelab?

I also love messing with stuff until it breaks and I learn something, but I’ve decided I just want my files to be accessible.

So I actually have truenas virtualized with a passed through HBA so I can run proxmox to host all my breakable VMs while leaving truenas alone.

As a guy who felt the same way what 20 years ago when I played that game.

Keep it up. World needs to know.

But he did fuck up in the next campaign when he grabbed frostmourne. That was objectively a bad move.

I’m so mad at this anime for being so good it broke my rule

Do not get invested until it is finished

“Well it’s good to know weird shit happens everywhere in this damn universe. And I was enthralled by your personal logs. Sorry, we had to listen to them just in case you were holding back Borg Intel or something, and I just wanted to personally thank you for not trying to talk that Neelix guy into coming back with you. My stars, you gave him a cooking show?”

“These were dire times, admiral.”
