I mean, it is fair for the company leadership to decide on what is said through their channels.

I don’t really see any issues with them limiting what can be said when representing their company.

However, any coworker should be able to post, comment and like what they want on their own personal social media pages without it affecting their employment.

I remember various attempts by employers to force employees to represent the brand and company at all times, that is just idiotic.

I will only accept that my employer will have me say “no comment” when asked about company opinions or details in my free time.

I am currently in the final phase of building my first own built NAS.

(I have an oooooold Intel NAS, that I don’t really use anymore…)

I need to populate the case with storage drives, I need to add an Intel GPU, a 10gbit NIC, and possibly add an HBA to add two SSDs for VM storage.

Currently I have a:

• Jonsbo N4 case
• Asrock B550m Pro4
• AMD Ryzen 4600G
• 32GB RAM
• Kingston boot SSD
• Corsair SF750 PSU

I am running TrueNAS on it, that was just installed to make sure that it is working, but I am planning on running it going forward, as I am mostly looking to run the server as a filserver.

I wish that people would stop using kids for their own gain.

Whenever I see people using kids like this, I want to reply “Put the child down, they are not a bat for your political gains.”

But as I don’t have Twatter, I don’t.

Does this get enforces with old.reddit.com?

You don’t really need a self hosted app, you can write a script to do the following:

1. Check if file X exists.
2. If file X does exist, delete it
3. If file X doesn’t exist, delete directory Y

Then create a new scheduled task to run the script every week.

The result is that you have a deadman switch with a weeks delay

Unless you recreate file X every week, directory Y will be deleted.

This is a very simplistic example, but it would be decently difficult to figure out.

I am a hobby photographer and usually take a few hundred GBs of photos every year (I shoot in JPG+RAW), I have other media as well, but I am mainly concerned about my photos.

I have them currently saved to a single HDD in my computer, which has worked ok, but I have seen bitrot in some files…

So I was reliable storage, currently thinking of a zraid1 with four normal disks, one parity, one hot spare and one cold spare, I am looking for it to last a minimum of ten years with normal maintenance.

I will probably put 64GB ram in the server, and possibly an SSD cache over time

I am currently building a home server, this project timeline has been extended as I had no idea hard drives would be THAT expensive at the capacities I want…

I do have an old computer that is not in use, but I don’t want to run a Bulldozer plattform…

So I am basing my new server on the AMD Ryzen 4600G, should be fine

No, do not under any circumstances use the hot water tank as a water source!

This can be deadly!

Legionnaires’ disease is bad shit.

Interesting, I have to look into that, I am taking it slow, and will buy storage drives over a few months to spread the cost out, so I have time to think about it

I am also working on building a new NAS, I didn’t realize it was going to be so damned expensive though…

Currently I am thinking of going for ZFS with six drives, four pure storage, one parity and one hot spare, I would also need another drive as a cold spare…

I am interested in ZFS due to it’s bitrot protection, I have already seen some of my photos affected by bitrot…

I have been very happy with my Panasonic Lumix S5 and previously GX80, though I am planning on getting a Sony A7 IV as I want better AF, I’ll keep my S5 and the lenses though as I love the colors from it

Just heads up, the protest have worked, Geoguessr will not be participating in the event.

Huge Geoguessr fan here, This is a great protest, I will take down my maps as well!

Until just now, I have always read it as Gork, Grok is more annoying to say.

This is the first time I ever heard the term, I didn’t know it was a thing, and given the source is Gork which is owned by a rich man with an agenda, I still don’t know if it is a thing or not.

I wonder how well that would run on a 700MHz ARM CPU with a maximum of 512 MB RAM…

I’ll wait for the official announcement before getting hyped up.

I don’t agree that these are an eyesore, they are not as pretty as a tree, no, but disgustingly ugly? Nah.

Seems like a decent idea if you have an over developed location where you can’t plant a tree.

This is the first time I am hearing about that site, I have just not been in the scene much… could it be a temporary problem?

I am a hobby photographer, and I am interested in some photo editing software, I heard great things about DoX Photo Lab, and wanted to check it out, I am not opposed to paying for software, if I get a perpetual license for a version, ok, they have that, looks good, so I try and find a trial version, ah, sweet they have that as well!

But I need to register to get access to download it…

Sigh…

Just allow me to get a trial version without registring, then I can decide later if I want it, I have bought several programs this way!

The only thing you will accomplish with forcing a registration on me in this case is a database full of temp emails…

STOP. DOING. THIS.
