We have a Bluetooth adapter for our car audio and it's great. Plugs into the aux jack and car power. Really handy not needing to plug in.

Yeah, I did ak3 month first, then 6 month, then 12 month. If you do a family plan, I think you can also get the cheaper price with a shorter lock-in.

I get cheaper on Mint because I get the 6 or 12 month price, but it means you have to have the money up front to pay for it.

It's all with respect to humans. Humans aren't making the bird nests, so they're natural, not man-made. Our houses don't over naturally, we build them.

From the bird's perspective, sure, nests might be bird-made and humans are part of nature. But at humans, we've also done a ton to shape the world and separate ourselves from nature. If your house were a fire-heated lean-to in the woods, there might be less a distinction between it and "out in nature," but if you're living in a city or town, your immediate surroundings probably have been heavily constructed and modified by humans.

It looks like corroded metal, maybe?

When we were looking to buy a house, I basically crossed off the list anywhere that I couldn't walk to at least some essentials, like basic groceries, pharmacy, a couple restaurants. Our new neighborhood isn't nearly as walkable as where we used to rent, but everyone else heae seemed to have the same thoughts, and it's too expensive to buy a house there.

 

I’m looking to re-purpose an old desktop into a multi-purpose home server. I’m looking for some advise on how to set things up in a way that won’t bite me in the ass later. I’m a confident Linux user, but have limited docker experience. I’m looking at using TrueNAS scale for: straight cloud storage, syncthings, home assistant, and tailscale to access it. If things go swimmingly, I might add jellyfin or *arr apps.

Here’s the hardware I already have:

  • i7 6700
  • 32 GB DDR4 (non-ECC)
  • GTX 1060
  • Storage:
    • 1 TB NVME SSD
    • 250 GB SATA SSD
    • 4x 4 TB WD Black HDD

So, here are my noob questions:

  • Is this system capable enough to handle the things I want to do?
  • My first pass at research says I should use TrueCharts for Tailscale. For Home Assistant, should I also install through TrueCharts? I was reading that you can’t install community docker plugins for home assistant, but I’m not sure if that’s something I’ll need. I also don’t know if I that’s something I need. The alternative is a separate VM, but that seems a lot more complicated.
  • How should I set up my drives? Should the 1 TB NVME drive be the boot drive, is that better used for something else. I’ve done some basic reading on vdevs/pools, but I’m not sure how syncthings/home assistant/other apps fit into the picture. Any good resources you could point me to for understanding this better?

I've seen people have success with that on iOS, but it doesn't work for me on Android. If I disable and left swipes, nothing happens when I swipe, rather than going back.

You got me excited, but it's not working for me. Are you on Android or iOS?

Well, they didn't put carpet on the bathroom floor. But they've arguably found something far worse.

See, It's all safe now!

(/s, but I did royally screw up my own feature branch with a janked rebase off the main branch before though.)

Probably not surprising tht Oppenheimer is furthest ahead in New Mexico. But why is Mississippi so into Barbie?

I also discovered this. I was panicking a little bit when I started smelling what seemed like sewage in my basement. In a 100 year old house, I was wondering what broke. After a few hours, I figured out that there were potatoes rotting in the pantry, which was more open to the basement than it was to the main floor of the house - so all the smell sank down there. It was honestly a relief.
