I use LTO for my 70TB of data. My rig is done on the cheap. I got an LTO 5 drive external off ebay for around 500. SAS card and a really old cheap HP desktop for about 50. Works perfectly, I have done a full system restore from backups and the tapes are cheap. Have had this system working for 5 years now.

In the future i plan to upgrade to LTO 7 when the drives become cheaper, but I have found it to be very reliable, great for making my backups and just so cool and fun to use.

I agree Autism too and I always stick with the things I know. Cannot be dealing with unfamiliar textures.

Brilliant. Your RSS feed was very thoughtful, I have added to to my fresh rss so i will never miss anything. Really like your categories all stuff i am fascinated with.

Wow such a good site. Really interesting articles. Then I though to myself hmm… wish it had an RSS feed and it does, so perfect.

I look forward to reading any future articles.

Don’t really do playlists but i have Genres, They are then split into bands, Which are the split into albums.

I had the same trouble when looking for a NAS case that did not cost a fortune.I ended up buying a Gemini nas case from Ali Express.

Other than waiting a couple of weeks for it to arrive the price was around $140 USD and it is actually a really good case and mine holds 8 drives.

Thank you. Although I do switch up dinner, this evening I had a gammon joint instead of chicken.

I don’t really tend to eat snacks very often.

running the images through ollama using this model: gemma3:latest

It is working on cpu only and still gives a decent throughput

Might be worth a try.

The thing that has surprised me the most is how good this AI model is at accurately knowing what is in a picture when the model itself is only 3GB in size.

No i’m not just kind of thought it would be nice to have, that way if i ever need to make any cards or banners i have loads of stuff in every category, with no ugly AI pics like most search engine image searches show these days.

This feeds into my ultimate project which I think will take me all summer.

I plan to create a lan wide search that has kiwix, tube archivist, ubooquity, paperless, jellyfin, stock images and stash.

Then I would have a unified search point and i think it would make kiwix far more usable by not having to go to the specific zim first. BBut, it is a tricky project as some things are nice and have api’s others don’t

Thanks will give it a try.

Are there any good alternatives anyone can recommend?

Do you think it’s a prelude to in a year or so wanting age verification on accounts?

Unpopular answer, but Unraid; as i have mixed sized drives.

Nice a real step forward for private communication.

Would be awesome if it ever has a messaging section without having to make a call, still, an awesome start!

Wow so awesome going to try it out.
