I've had good luck with goharddrive.com. They sell through amazon as well, but I believe they ship direct. I usually get the hgst, or now wd, ultrastar hard drives. I've had zero issues.

My parents' isp setup a static dhcp entry per customer. If you change the mac address of your router you don't get an address. The address you get with the proper mac address is constant and can't be changed.

Also trains the next generation to think these kinds of privacy violations are ok, when they are not.

Why would it require a license?

The jalapeno ones have way better flavor.

If it doesn't work, you don't have working ipv6.

Hurry and buy a new graphics card before the prices go crazy again.

could use nextcloud with s3, might work for what you need.

Yeah, it would be nice if those were still made.

I feel like a pretty good vehicle for a lot of people like that who need a truck sometimes and don't want a second vehicle could be one of the new small diesel trucks, like the ram ecodiesel. 30mpg is more than even most compact SUVs get, it's still a truck for people that like that, and it can haul/tow more than a compact suv as well.

A big problem with 2 vehicles instead of 1 is often that insurance costs so much more, even if you're driving the same number of miles as when you had 1 vehicle. Registration fees too.

I do and it's fine.

I used to have a separate machine for server stuff but it just cost more in electricity since I would leave them both on 24x7 anyway.

I've got 64G of ram and I often use up to 48 of it with various VMs. I wouldn't get any power savings with a separate server since I have a cron job to transcode everything that plex recorded off of TV during the day to av1 for disk space savings (usually turns 3GB of mpeg2 into 700MB of av1), so I would need a server with a moderately powerful cpu anyway for that.

I have a ryzen 3700X. got it since it was the highest performance that was still 65w tdp at the time, didn't want to spend a ton on electricity and extra air conditioning since I would be leaving it running 24x7.

The only time I notice a performance impact during gaming is if my windows 11 vm is running, I don't really need that one running 24x7 so I shut that one down if it happens to be running at the time.

one of our partners we have to integrate with at work sends us reports in ms access format. it's not fun, especially when everything is running in lambda and there doesn't seem to be any good libraries for reading ms access files that would easily run in lambda.
