Please re-read the original post re: tailscale.

Very true. It runs at good throttled speeds and the biggest power consumers are the hard drives themselves. Not to mention everyone else recommending different OS but no mention of hardware except people recommending synology boxes.
Simplest I’ve found personally is using an old Pc and getting a PCIE sas/SATA expansion card to allow more drives to be added if you need more than the normal data limit. Use windows server 2019 or 2022. The trial periods for these are 180 days that can be renewed another 5 times which gives a long time before you reinstall the OS. Then you share the folder/drive like normal. It’s simplest because it’s still a GUI and windows.
You can also pool drives so that multiple drives appear like a single drive, this is supported in windows itself (I forget the name in settings) or you can look at something like “drivepool”. I use this to have a “main pool” with a few large drives and then a “backup pool” which is mostly old 1tb or larger drives and use a program like “cobain reflector” to automate a backup of the main pool. Nice thing about “drive pool” is, if the server goes down for any reason, I can still pull each drive out and read whatever is on each drive without having to process them back into a “pool”. The files are just natively visible. Feel free to ask for extra info if anyone is interested.
And so we have the part I was worried about. This is becoming a “my secret formula” instead of sharing and helping others get better and share in the interest of creation. Personally I disagree with you on the premise that we should be helping others get better. Just sharing the prompts and the model used isn’t the ticket to the kingdom, but it does help people start to shape their own prompts.
For instance, using less iterations (15) sometimes gets a better result than using more (50). Didn’t know this until I saw someone who shared their experience. But that doesn’t give me the secret to make exactly the same images as them.
Something I wish we could see in the description of the creations being posted is the prompt, which model was used, and some of the general settings like iterations to help others who are struggling to get their generated pictures to look realistic.
The link no longer works, but I was able to follow the comment from the original creator to their post about the wiki.
@ChatGPT@lemmings.world What is the best way to make ribs fall off the bone?
Thanks, I’m not sure how I missed their about page. I appreciate the links.
Is there any extra info about the solid option? I went to their site and thinking to see about running a server on my home brew server to try it out. But, searching for “solid” doesn’t provide much relevant results. I’m wondering questions like, Do your files/information become basically a cloud storage drive? Is there a reason to use the solid server instead of just a NAS/home brew server with wan access?
Piehole would be the “whole house/device” Adblock protection. Ublock is the one device Adblock. Fair to use both in my opinion.
I appreciate the input of a link/name of the GitHub that can delete comments. I agree they should lose in the end for refusing to delete all content and it’s just a matter of getting them there.
Also, anyone still planning to delete their comments and then delete their account: make sure your comments are gone and then wait a few weeks to make sure the comments stay gone.
If you live in a country with the regular vpn protocols being blocked, you will need to be more specific with a vpn that obfuscates the network connection. Something like Astril or expressvpn will both have tunnel obfuscation. At that point it’s less about hiding your activity, and more about gaining access to other sites because I wouldn’t vouch for the privacy on those two vpns.
