Is noise the most important prio? Would you spend money for this goal?
Not the most important, but it is an important factor. If I am not losing much otherwise, I'd like to keep it not louder than say, an idling fridge. I would spend some more for quieter drives and fans, since those are the biggest noise concerns.
How about power usage?
Absolutely important, power prices here are some of the highest globally.
How about price limitations?
I'd very much like to stay below 2000€, preferably below 1750€. Currently it's coming out at around 1600€.
When looking at harddisks, there is that performance issue called "CMR or SMR" (google it). Your ST8000NT001 seem fine performance-wise as the use CMR.
Yup, took that into account, but nonetheless thanks for mentioning it!
If you need really quiet ones, then maybe you want "desktop" harddisks. But many of them use SMR which limits their performance.
Doesn't need to be super quiet, just not disruptive, I'm planning on having the NAS in the hallway.
Most guides recommend Raidz2 currently. Do you use backups?
Raidz2 means there are two entire "unused" drives which would be quite painful for my budget. I am planning on renting around 1TB of rsync storage and throwing things like Immich's data on there. This is fine to me since I'd prefer one backup off-site anyways. Any of my jellyfin stuff can always be redownloaded as long as I keep a list of what I got somewhere else. Oh also I'm planning on getting all four drives at different stores and/or different times (at least a week or two in between) to reduce the chance of them failing all at once.
Prices fluctuate but last I checked it was around 1600€. Also, after posting this thread I re-checked the CPU and noticed that isn't even available in my region anymore apparently, so I'll have to find a suitable replacement there anyways.
A friend of mine had an unRAID NAS and moved that over to TrueNAS later after being bothered by the licensing costs, that's why I was looking into the latter more. I do know how to RTFM, so I think I should be fine on that? But maybe there's gonna be a huge negative surprise, I suppose I don't know that yet
Yeah, I thought about the RAM, but since I already have two 8GB sticks I decided not to bother. Couldn't even buy two more since I have no idea what those are exactly, there are no stickers on them, so I'd have to buy 32GB entirely which is like 80-120€.
And as you said, that can always be done later if I run into trouble :)
Ah, sorry, I should've specified this further. Whether this can run what I need it to isn't the primary concern, I believe it can do so, I primarily attached my decision making basis just in case it changes anything.
I'm more concerned about things like picking the correct drives, or if limiting my motherboard selection through an ITX case was a bad idea, or if my choice of not going with ECC was a poor one, those kinds of things.
Or immigrational issues. Where I live that's a huge talking point that moved from right-wing to even slightly left of the center. Immigrants tend to bunch up in groups and sadly since a lot of them come from countries which are rather socially conservative, they bring those values with them and can be hostile towards women or queer people, sometimes even democracy. And since their social circle shares those values, as people are most likely to connect with other like-minded people, there's no shift there over time or in future generations.
Yet politicians and many voters forget they are human. It's just "send them back to where they came from" from the right-wing parties, instead of trying to find out how to actually improve things. What's missing is integration. Something Denmark is doing for example is spreading immigrants, especially refugees since those don't really decide where they go, out. Have a few scattered here or there, still able to find connections to people from the same places, but unable to build a complete social network without also interacting heavily with Danes. There are still awful people, immigrant or local humans will be humans, but this type of action means there's a far higher chance for immigrants to adopt local values, especially second or third generation ones.
They identified a notable issue that needs to be addressed, but the response is always hate instead of actually trying to figure out how to live as humans side-by-side.
Over the last one or two years I feel like Rust haters have gotten even louder than the Rust evangelists. For every person who declares "Rewrite it in Rust!" I see two or three people saying how they hate Rust or how pointless it is and so on.
My interpretation is that "witch" is more for the cooking type of magic, while "wizard" is more for the baking type. As in, a witch goes by vibes and is generally more improvisational, while a wizard is a nerd who is very exact about everything.
Most of these criticisms are from a time which they have at least claimed they're out of. They made a huge deal about apologizing, slowing down, and doing things properly. Have they done so? Hard to know without a look behind the scenes, but so far I haven't heard any new complaints.
On the other hand it's just a good way to get to know your neighbours. I baked too many sweets a while back and shared them around and now they know me better and, I believe, are generally more fond of me. So win win, I get better relations with them and they get sweets :3
My problem with that is mobile. If I want tasks, I'll use a dedicated primarily mobile app, (e.g. Tasks.org) because if I'm checking a grocery list or tweaking my daily todo list while out of the house, I'm not gonna pull out my laptop lol
Of course it seems reasonable for more long-term plans which you don't need to change day-to-day, but at that point I'd just end up with two to do lists/apps which is also a bother.
What I also appreciate about Chaos is that their writers know they're evil. I swear the people writing loyalist books forget that the Imperium is basically as bad as the rest in its own way.
Even worse when a version is actually different. I had to check the US prices in a store once, it decided "nah mate, your IP's not American, clearly you're a bloody idiot, here's your native version" and even when I manually changed the url to US English, as they did languages based on part of the path, it still decided clearly I must not know what I want. I couldn't even try to infer the price, as the product didn't exist on my version of the site.
And aside from that and language pet peeves, what if you're on Holiday? Or live in an area that speaks a lot of languages close together?
As Cousin Mose said, the language is in the header, the fact that some web devs decide the IP address is clearly a better way to figure out what language you want is insane
Der von Bundestagspräsidentin Julia Klöckner (CDU) in dieser Wahlperiode neu berufene Direktor Paul Göttke hatte entschieden, „dass die Bundestagsverwaltung als solche, insbesondere aufgrund der gebotenen Neutralitätspflicht, nicht an politischen Demonstrationen und öffentlichen Versammlungen teilnimmt“, wie der Bundestag vergangene Woche mitgeteilt hatte.
"Dass unterdrückte Minderheiten das Recht haben sollten in Frieden zu existieren ist nicht neutral genug" ist ja mal eine wundervolle Einstellung. Ich finde auch Gesetze zu vollstrecken ist nicht neutral genug, hat mal jemand an die Täter gedacht?
Even as a work truck it's comically large. You can get the same amount of cargo space in a far smaller vehicle, this one's only advantage would be the sheer horsepower which you only need for very specific work.
For me it's pretty likely to replace it, at least on my laptop. Don't get me wrong, I love Plasma, but per-screen workspaces and native window tiling are two features I never knew how much I needed before I tried out Hyprland some months back, especially on a single screen. While I'll definitely miss the desktop panels and extensive settings menu, I'll give those up for the other features without much of a second thought.
