Probably just go with SSD storage because 2T is fairly low for hard drives these days. Still a pretty good idea to do a mirror.

Pretty much any CPU that isn’t a raspberry pi will comfortably max out a gigabit Ethernet connection.

Sorry, I wouldn’t have complained if I knew.

I use a USB connection to my UPS for the shutdown signal not Ethernet

I would detach one drive from the mirror first and make the raidz1 with the two drives if that’s possible (not sure if it lets you create a pool in a degraded state)

There’s different kinds of backups. For this you don’t need off-site storage.

For this I set up zfs auto snapshotting which means when I delete stuff it isn’t really deleted because a snapshot is still pointing at it until it rolls off the time window.

Both zfs and btrfs can do this but you do need to change the filesystem to use these which can be a lot of work.

Why not just host on v4 and v6 from home?

LastPass said the exact same thing. I won’t be a big target like they will though.

I think the main thing for not messing it up is just make sure you keep it updated. Probably set up auto updates and auto backups.

Because when whatever company gets a data breach I don’t want my data in the list.

With bitwarden If your server goes down then all your devices still have a local copy of your database you just can’t add new passwords until the server is back up.

No because the Democrats actually care about truth and justice

Bidet is life

Your senses do not feed back into evolution. It’s all random mutations that happen to make it slightly better at surviving. Generational survival is the pass/fail signal.

For many things that seem to require a large single leap in progress it turns out that there is a clear story of gradually developing it over a long time.

Ram is important but it has to be vram not system ram.

Only MacBooks can use the system ram because they have an integrated GPU rather than a dedicated one.

Stable diffusion is the same situation.

Only the GPU and primarily the vram matters for LLMs. So this wouldn’t help at all.

I have had the same Arch install for years where Ubuntu on the other hand breaks after 2-3 major version upgrades from accumulated cruft.

It is important to keep Arch updated but sometimes I go a month or two without doing it.

Occasionally they have some update that’s not backwards compatible and you have to be a bit careful about it but if it breaks someone already has the answer on the forums from earlier that week. You can also install “informant” which displays the latest arch news post before installing because they usually warn you when there’s a breaking change.
