You can buy a $400 900GB HDD, so OPs price gap is actually pretty narrow.





Look into the servarr suite. I just add what I want and it finds and downloads it for me.


AI is great, if used properly. It’s a tool, not a solution, and needs a ton of refinement.

My company has spent tens of millions of dollars and a year plus refining our AI platform, to the extent that we’re directly responsible for a leading cloud platform’s current and future offerings. We’re even at the point of them offering their services for free because we’re putting in so much work.

Properly using generative AI is possible, but most companies don’t want to pay for it.


As an American, me too. We’re a virus infecting the rest of the world.




Our government hasn’t cared about the will of the people in a very long time (if ever).


No, the site had 2 weeks. They decided to argue with CF until that deadline was up.


Well, yeah. They’ve been genociding Palestinians for a while now. They’re not being very secretive about it.


Please remove your suggestion for buying 18650s on Amazon. They are full of counterfeit cells, or rewrapped cells with dangerously inflated specs.

Get lithium cells from a reputable vendor that tests the batches they receive. Illumn and IMR Batteries are two such vendors.


What a moron.

My company hired me specifically to help get everything from the only guy who knows the system documented.

Well, that’s how it started, at least.



No medicines have copyrights, but they do have patents. And, drug patents are kinda necessary if you want money to be spent on developing new drugs.

No one is going to dump a few hundred million into developing a new drug if everyone can manufacture and sell it upon release.

Patents aren’t the issue, though, it’s companies charging out the ass because they can.


Except it is; you can add a batch script in your startup folder to disable it on startup. You could also just add the registry key that disables it.

If you’re actually a power user, disabling updates isn’t an issue.


The problem is when those systems become part of a botnet.

Plus, you can just disable the update service if you want to leave your computer vulnerable to attacks.


That’s why I chose to work in dev ops. The only humans I have to talk to are devs, and they usually know exactly what I need to do to unblock them.



Since the server is on an N100 that could very well explain it.


Have you tried changing out ethernet cables and trying different ports?

Also, try hosting the speed test from your laptop and running the speed test from the server to see if the results are reversed.


Most people have absolutely no need to understand how the systems they use operate under the hood.

If anyone does care to “reach up”, it’s not hard to find the steps to disable it on Google. But 99.9% of people aren’t going to do that.


Those notifications have existed for years. People don’t give a shit.

All you have to do is restart your computer every so often and nothing will be forced.


Or just filling the paper tray (that’s what the error means)


The forced updates are usually after the system has bugged the shit out of you to update for a week or two.

Plus, you can easily disable it.


Forced updates are a good thing for most people, though. The general population doesn’t know or care about infosec, so they’ll put off updates for months or years.


Unfortunately, the copyright issue was about a decryption key, not about Yuzu providing a better product.


You can absolutely add constraints to control for hallucinations. Copilot apparently doesn’t have enough, though.



Shit, I think most people would need prescription strength stimulants to do that job, especially in their 80s.




Oh please, that’s the same argument of, “It’s not a bong, it’s a tobacco pipe.” Yeah, they might call it that to circumvent the law, but everyone knows damn well that 99% of users aren’t using it for that.

They’re profiting off selling a tool that breaks encryption and bypasses copyright protections. The profit is the issue here.

While I support their efforts, I can also realize that Nintendo absolutely has a right to try to stop them, and it’s not unethical for them to do so.


Even putting pills in blister packs caused a statistically significant drop in OD suicides using OTC drugs.

Turns out that many people just need a bit of resistance to stop them from implementing a permanent solution to a temporary situation.


It is when the product is using their IP to violate copyright laws.

I fully support emulators and pirating, but I don’t lie to myself about it being legal or ethical.


That’s only going to be relevant for a few more years.

Radio is doomed. It’s not profitable to run without it being overloaded with ads, but even without ads the audience is going to steadily dwindle no matter what they do.


Have you checked out either Calibre-server or Readarr? They’re servers specifically for managing text libraries.


Lol, no. ML is not capable of writing extremely complex code.

It’s basically like having a bunch of junior devs cranking out code that they don’t really understand.

ML for coding is only really good at providing basic bitch code that is more time intensive than complex. And even that you have to check for hallucinations.
