My week as a windows forced office worker just peaked having seen this meme.

I highly prefer a wireless mouse, but only if does also come with a wire.

I would still consider myself a noob but i do feel accomplished enough to answer this properly.

Hardware depends on your budget. It does not need to be bleeding edge either, i would focus on a good server case that makes it easy to upgrade over time and maybe fits a few harddrives if you don’t plan on having a nas.

Also make sure to check how much sata connections your motherboard can handle, using an m.2 slots may occupy some of the physical sata connections.

I highly, highly recommend proxmox for an OS.

You can set up every different service into its own lxc container, its wonderful to know you can experiment with whatever and everything else will be unaffected and just keep working. Within lxc things can just run using docker (though this is officially not recommended it works fine). The resource sharing between lxc containers is excellent. Taking snapshots a breeze. And when an lxc is not enough you can easily spin up some vm with whatever distro or even windows also. Best server-choice i made ever!

The zfs format for your storage pool is also very good. And you definitely want redundancy, redundancy makes it so x amount of drives can fail and the system just keeps running like normal while you replace the broken drive, otherwise a single drive failing ruins all your data.

Unless you make every drive its own pool with specific items that you backup separately but thats honestly more troublesome then learning how to setup a pool.

How you want a pool and how much redundancy is a personal choice but i can tell you how i arranged mine.

I have 5 identical drives which is the max My system can handle. 4 of them are in a pool with a raidz1 configuration (equivalent to raid-5) this setup gives me 1 drive of redundancy and leaves me 3 drives of actual usable space.

I could have added the fifth drive in the pool fo more but i opted not too, to protect my immich photons against complete critical failure. This fifth drive is unmounted when not used.

Basically my immich storage are in a dataset, which you can think of as a directory on your pool that you can assign to different lxc to keep things separate.

Every week a script will mount the fifth drive, rsync copy my immich dataset from the pool onto it. Unmount the drive again. Its a backup of the most important stuff outside of the pool.

This drive can also be removed from the cases front in an emergency, which is part of why I recommend spending some time finding a case that fits your wants more then worrying about how much ram.

Best of luck!

While we all have and know so much information in our modern age, the average peasant during the rebound age of the 21st century knew less in total then you can find on a single digiread today.

Its another thing to literally be so autistic that the extremely bad repercussions simply don’t matter.

It wouldn’t really be a choice on my part. If society finds my existence so offensive they execute me for it thats a problem for their conscious not mine, i will die some day anyway and i am content to do so for not betraying what i know is right.

Feels bad for my family though but being an example of making unethical compromises is worse.

Autist here, i refuse orders on principle, the only way people can get me to do anything is to have me decide that i agree on doing so.

My expectations if i was ever forced in a military setting would be to get punished for Insubordination at a constant rate, i assume to get beaten, locked up, be given the extra shitty food (which i just wouldn’t eat).

When it comes to being put under pressure i have a lifetime of experience. They can hurt, torture me all they want but will never rule over my independent thoughts.

I am no hero, nor a vigilante but simply holding on to what i know is right is what gives me strengt. And while i expect coming out bruised, broken and traumatised it will stil not be close to the horrors my own mind will inflict on me for going against my nature.

Whether I would actually shoot someone giving me orders, depends on the person, the context and the orders. But chances are they will already know i am more trouble then worth something to them and wont be handed a weapon.

Once detail is removed it can never be restored faithfully. Ai can generate details and an individual may not detect much difference but in direct comparison it will be different.

If you somehow include the details as data all combined in a compressed format you save space but the result is not a lower res, but a lossless compressed native res in which case upscaling is irrelevant.

You joke but dynamic content based on site, user settings would be so damn cool and a great accessibility feature.

Granted it may take more data but there is so much more we can do with digital media than just static pictures.

Id love if pictures showed some actual buttons when you hovered over them that can change to a readable font. Feature an explanatory description (or easter egg) Copy parts of the text or link to the oc source.

Slapstick and other silent humor: “Am i a not a joke to you?!”

Relativity would like a word with you.

We don’t know if the conditions that allow for into the past time travel can form naturally. But math as far as we know it, does allow it.

Traveling to the future at different speeds is well established on small scales. Astronauts in orbit arrive in the future having experienced an insignificant amount of time less then we do.

I once wrote down a food recept in code style because it seemed like the most structured way to do so.

There is a lot of things I blame neo hitler for but “ the US on an unsustainable fiscal path” is something that has been true for decades, and is more a global consequence of capitalism itself.

It feels like a few people just bought the loudest megaphones and are shouting at the world

“If man is to survive, he will have learned to take a delight in the essential differences between men and between cultures. He will learn that differences in ideas and attitudes are a delight, part of life’s exciting variety, not something to fear.”

• Gene Roddenberry

The code to handle errors would be so bloated to deal with every conceivable and inconceivable situation you will get errors on your errors.

The computer is as helpful as it can be with what little context it knows of what was going on. Mostly it just knows that codeline 123 went fine and 124 went not.

This isn’t even fucking with them, it directs them to provide an actual proper answer.

Splitting crucial information on 2 pages is something i expect to be a well used trick in intelligence work.

Also the story about the killed newborn, this is the testimony of Epsteins niece is it?

They hope to learn it to be a better fascist because for some reason trying to make ai smarter has the “sideeffect” of it agreeing with altruistic and woke ideas.

Use it upside down for a while? May need some time though.
