Have you tried DietPi

briongloid, 1 year ago to piracy in I have received a copyright infringement alert, what should I answer?

I’ve found Usenet backbone+indexer to be the same price as VPN while being significantly faster to download, no seeding required.

It allows more complicated setups like radarr+sonarr which download episodes as they come out, at around your internet speed.

I ripped out all my portable drives, had to make a cable without the energy management line for inside a PC.

Big ATX case with 8 3.5’ bays, mobo with 6 Sata ports, last two ports will require a SATA-PCIe expansion card.

1x 4TB (shucked)

2x 6TB (shucked)

1x 8TB HDD

1x 16TB Ironwolf Pro

40TB across 5 bays, 1 left without expansion card, 2 more with the card, following that the 4TB will get dropped for a bigger drive.

I’ll likely be buying no less than 12TB per drive going forward, no RAID configuration yet.

Install official version from Microsoft website.

Open PowerShell;

irm massgrave.dev/get | iex

This authenticates Win and/or upgrades version Home/Pro

briongloid, 1 year ago to asklemmy in What are the bad patterns of Reddit to never repeat on Lemmy?

In the last year I started noticing on Reddit people typing the ‘letter’-word and half the time I wouldn’t know what word they are referring to.

On a couple occasions I would reply asking what word they meant and they would reply that I should know, with my comment downvoted.

That reminds me of another thing I was sick of seeing, people asking a question and getting told to google it or that lmgtfy link. You would later see people in the comments mentioning that Google took them there when Googling for it.

briongloid, 1 year ago to asklemmy in I need to survive for 3 days without pooping, and eating as little as possible. I can pee, but not very often. It can't take up too much space. What food do I pack?

Some armies use cheese to reduce frequency of bowel movements.

briongloid, 1 year ago to newcommunities in [META] Creating a new community is easy, but to get people on board, you need to create some content.

I’m trying to get into the habit of posting everyday, I fell out of it on reddit because it grew so big and would often go nowhere.

Mods rejecting posts willy-nilly, users who sit on /new thinking they can be the gatekeeper, shadowbanning of a post without being informed. It’s going to take some time to get used to posting more.
