Tulee myös mieleen joku satunnainen standupkoomikko, joka kävi läpi erilaisia pedofilian tasoja (kuten hebefilia ja efebofilia, googlatkaa jos kiinnostaa tietää mitä nuo erot ovat). Noissa erittelyissä ongelmana on se, että jos erikseen yrittää vääntää että enhän minä lapsista ole kiinnostunut, teineistä vain, niin kuulostaa täysin pedofiililta.

Sama homma kainalon tuulettelun kanssa. Jos pitää erikseen alleviivata että käsi oli vain 30 asteen kulmassa ja vielä vasen, niin kuulostaa silti täysin natsilta. Sama kuin yrittäisi väittää että ei Muski tehnyt natsitervehdystä kun ei huutanut samalla Sieg Heil eikä pitänyt SS-uniformua.

Ja tuota touhua kun katsoo, niin on hyvä pitää mielessä että jos pöydän ääressä on 1 natsi ja 9 muuta niin pöydässä onkin oikeasti 10 natsia. Ja vähän tuon sirkuksen jälkeen oranssi mies vapautti vankilasta aika kirjaimellisia natseja, vaikka nimittävätkin itseään ylpeiksi pojiksi.

En oikein tiedä miten tuohon pitäisi täältäkäsin suhtautua. Onko jenkeissä sisällissota pystyssä ennenkuin raitalippu vaihtuu hakaristeihin? Löytyykö Euroopasta tarpeeksi vastavoimaa itänaapurista löytyvälle toiselle hullulle? Mitä Kiina tekee tämän kaiken seurauksena Taiwanissa ja muuten? Lähteekö mopo käsistä Koreoiden rajalla?

Keksi itse paremmat kysymykset ja katso huominen jakso.

”Teknisesti se oli natsitervehdys”, sanoo asiantuntija Elon Muskin käsiliikkeestä Trumpin virkaanastujaisissa

Somessa kädenheilaus on tulkittu natsitervehdykseksi. Uutisissa liikettä on kuvailtu natsitervehdystä muistuttavaksi.

Erolla ei lopulta ole väliä. – Teknisesti se oli natsitervehdys, sanoo Taideyliopistolla työskentelevä dosentti Kimi Kärki.

Musk itse kommentoi asiaa X:ssä toteamalla, että ”Kaikki ovat Hitlereitä -hyökkäykset ovat niin väsyneitä”. Hän siis ohittaa koko asian. Hän jättää sen ilmaan.

Tämä on tyypillistä uuden ajan äärioikeistolle, Kärki sanoo. Ensin flirttaillaan fasistisilla symboleilla ja sitten todetaan, että asiasta huomauttavat ovat paranoideja.

Se, missä vaiheessa yhteiskunta luisuu fasismiin, on vaikea määrittää. Muskin heiluminen lavalla vain hämärtää tilannetta.

Better internet connection - a lot of hosts have 40Gbps connections now, and it’s a data center grade connection with a lower contention ratio.

And also better infrastructure in general. VPS's are running on a datacenter with (most likely) failsafes for everything. Multiple internet connections, pretty beefy setup for power reundancy with big battery banks and generators, multiple servers to take your stuff over in case a single unit fails, climate controls with multiple units and so on.

I could get 10Gbps connection (or theoretically even more) to my home, but if I want all the toys the big players are working with that would mean investing at least several tens of thousands euros to get anywhere and more likely hundred or two thousands to build anything even near to the same level. And that doesn't include things like having mechanics to maintain generators, security stuff to guarantee physical safety and so on, so even if I had few millions to throw on a project like this it wouldn't last too long.

So, instead of all that I have a VPS from Hetzner (I've been a happy customer with them for a long time) for less than a hamburger and fries per month. And that's keeping my stuff running just fine. Obviously there's caveats to look for, like backups in case Hetzner suddenly doesn't exist anymore for whatever reason, but the alternative could as well be setting up a server farm in the Moon as that's about as difficult to reach as getting similar reliability from them for ~100€/year.

Näin on. Vähän tänä talvena on puita mennytkin kun sähkö ei ole huidellut taivaissa. Pitää nukkumaanmennessä pistää sähkölämmöt kiinni ja jos alkaa tuntua kylmältä niin sitten voi pistää puuhellaan tulet ja jos näyttää että kallista sähköä on pidempäänkin niin voi alkaa leivinuunia lämmittelemään.

Well, sure, I could leave just the z-wave endpoint at home and move the server to the cloud, but that would mean that none of my automations would work if the network happens to be down. And my ISP is pretty damn good to keep me on line, but that's one thing of my home automation I'm not willing to compromise. Everything has to be local and not dependent on any kind of connectivity to outside.

Sure, the things rely on the infrastructure (networking very much included) I have in place in my house and it's not perfect by any stretch and my HA server in itself would most likely be 'safer' in the cloud, but it still is my home automation and I want to keep it local to avoid connectivity issues, latency and other stuff beyond my control.

And sure, should my server PSU die tomorrow, it would bring the whole system down. As I mentioned, the setup is far from perfect, but it's built the way I like it and, for me, this is the best approach. You may weigh pros/cons differently, and that's perfectly fine. I have my reasons and you have yours, both equally valid.

But I'd still rather not mess with hardware, I just need at least one physical server and other stuff around to keep things running the way I like them.

Without a doubt a lot do, but I personally couldn't care less. I have a server at home, but that's just a necessary evil. If I could I'd just rent hardware for everything, but there's technical and obviously financial limitations with that.

And hosting pretty much anything is practically identical regardless of the platform. Sure, there's exceptions, like my Home Assistant server with z-wave, which needs to be physically nearby my other stuff, but things like fediverse instances and other browser-based stuff are exactly the same to maintain regardless of the underlying platform.

My personal opinions, not facts:

For hdd’s to be used as long term storage, what is usually the rule of thumb? Are there any recommendations on what drives are usually better for this?

Anything with a long history, like HGST or WD (red series preferably). Backblaze among others publish their data on longevity of drives, so look for what they're offering. On ebay (and others) there's refurbished drives available which are pretty promising, but I have no personal experience on those.

Considering this is going to store personal documents and photos, is RAID a must in your opinion? And if so, which configuration?

Depends heavily on your backup scheme, amount of data and available bandwidth (among other things). Raid protects you against a single point of failure on storage. Without raid, you need to replace the drive, pull data back from backups and while that's happening you don't have access to the things you stored on the failed disk. With raid you can keep using the environment without interruptions while waiting for a day or two for a replacement. If you have fast connection which can download your backups in less than 24 hours it might be worth the money to skip raid, but if it takes a week or two to pull data back, then the additional cost of raid might be worth it. Also, if you change a lot of data during the day, it's possible that a drive failure happens before backup is finished and in that case some data is potentially lost.

On which level of RAID you should use, it's a balancing act. Personally I like to run things with RAID5 or 6 even if I have a pretty decent uplink. Also, you need to consider what's the acceptable downtime for your services. If you can't access all of your photos in 48 hours it's not a end of the world, but if your home automation is offline it can at least increase your electric bill for some amount and maybe cause some inconvenience, depending on how your setup is built.

And in case RAID would be required, is ubuntu server good enough for this? or using something such as unraid is a must?

Ubuntu server is well enough. You can do either sofware raid or LVM for traditionald RAID setup or opt for a more modern approach like zfs.

I was thinking of probably trying to sell the 1660 super while it has some market value. However, I was never able to have the server completely headless. Is there a way to make this happen with a msi tomahawk b450? Or is only possible with an APU (such as 5600g)?

No idea. My server has a on board graphics, but I haven't used that for years. But it's a nice option to have in case something goes really wrong. You can still sell your 1660 and replace that with the cheapest GPU you can find from ebay/whatever, at least as long as you're comfortable with the console you can fix things with anything that can output plain text. If your motherboard has separate remote management (generally not available in consumer grade stuff) it might be enough to skip any kind of GPU, but personally I would not have that kind of setup, even if remote management/console was available.

If you guys find any glaring issues with my setup

I don't know about actual issues, but I have spinning hard drives a lot older than my kids which still run just fine. Spinning rust is pretty robust (at least in sub 4TB capacity), so unless you really need the speed traditional hard drives still have their place. Sure, a ton more of spinning drives has failed on me than SSD's, but I have working hard drives older than SSD as a technology has been around (at least in the sense of what we have now), so claiming that SSD's are more robust (at least on my experience) is just a misnderstood statistics.

Maksajasta en tiedä, mutta sähköverkon kannalta vakaata tuotantoa tarvittaisiin ihan ehdottomasti lisää. Juuri nyt olemme omavaraisia tuotannon suhteen kun tuulivoimasta tulee reilu 5000MW ja sitä kapasiteettia olisi reilusti enemmänkin kun vain olisi ottajia, mutta tuulivoimatuotanto vaihtelee aivan valtavasti sään mukana. Tyynenä pakkaspäivänä ollaan aivan täysin sen varassa että lähinnä Ruotsista saadaan tuotua puuttuva teho ja jos nyt sattuisi niin että pakkaskeleillä tulisi vaikkapa Olkiluotoon joku hämminki niin aletaan olla jo (ainakin omasta mielestäni) vähän turhan lähellä riskiä siitä että koko verkko kaatuu.

Erilaiset akkujärjestelmät varmasti paikkaavat tuon vaihtelevan tuotannon ongelmaa tulevaisuudessa, mutta ei sekään mikään taikakeino ole millä voisi päivätolkulla paikata puuttuvaa tuulituotantoa.

ZFS in general is pretty memory hungry. I set up my proxmox sever with zfs pools a while ago and now I kind of regret it. ZFS in itself is very nice and has a ton of useful features, but I just don't have the hardware nor the usage pattern to benefit from it that much on my server. I'd rather have that thing running on LVM and/or software raid to have more usable memory for my VM's. And that's one of the projects I've been planning for the server, replace zfs pools with something which suits my usage patterns better, but that's a whole another story and requires some spare money and some spare time, which I don't really either at hand right now.

But i don’t know whether these are at all that important, so i don’t know if it’s worth it.

Well, they're not for decoration either. The board is designed for that component to be in place. But, as already mentioned, there's reundancy, so it might not be an immediate problem, or not a problem at all. It might have affect on how long the board lasts, it might be a problem with different components in place, cause stability issues under certain kinds of load and so on.

For OP, if it works, I'd keep just using it. Replacing the component would be the best option, but if you don't have experience on soldering (or know someone who does) I'd skip that. Looks like the pads are at least damaged if not missing altogether and replacing that isn't really trivial job. Not impossible either by any stretch, but not something you'd want to do for your first soldering job.

Cascading failure could, at least in theory, damage more expensive components on the machine, but that's pretty unlikely. And it won't catch on fire because of that.

Ylelle laitoin juttuvinkkiä että tehkääpä nyt fediversestäkin jotain, mutta nykyvalossa olisi kyllä ihan paikallaan lähestyä vaikka ihan kansanedustajia "oletteko kuulleet fediversestä ja mastodonista"-saarnalla. Muskin hörhöilyt on tietysti oma lajinsa, mutta en näe että threads tai bluesky olisivat alustoina mitenkään merkittävästi erilaisia kuiin twitter ja niissä on tasan samat hallinnolliset ongelmat.
