Computer-oriented gear recommendation / step-up from a cellphone (sh.itjust.works)

Hi everyone!

Today I went on a walk in a park and had a lot of fun trying to find interesting angles and subjects to snap a pic with my phone. I really loved walking around "with the eye of a photographer" and wanted to hear your recommendations on what would be a good first buy geared towards my interests. While the pictures were satisfactory from my OnePlus 12, I am aware that they would never rival the quality of bigger sensors/lenses.

I owned one DSLR back in the days but never got the interest of playing in the manual and semi-manual modes.

My ideal camera would be one relatively simple to operate but offering good specs that would make computer touch-ups (cropping, colours, balance, etc) as I think that my interest will be on detecting good capture opportunities more than finding optimal camera settings.

My guess is an entry level DSLR/mirrorless would be interesting to explore different lenses?

The products will probably be computer wallpapers (4k HDR screens) and I would love to prioritize the crispiness/resolution.

As I don't plan to do more than play with it from time to time, I am looking in the sub 1.5k $ area (new or used)

TL;DR: Looking for a worthwhile step-up from a cellphone to capture crisp wallpapers of nature/sceneries. +-1500$ new/used.

Sadly the distributions I tried did not open the required port(s) on the built-in firewall (Bazzite and CachyOS, for two).

I would suggest to disable any firewall and check if you can pair.

I only know for Quebec, but our "college des medicins" is seen by many as blocking some ways to accelerate the count of MDs in the province, gatekeeping a bit.

Yes, the previous commenter just specified that the image should be seen "wide-eyed" (eyes focused on farther away / closer to parallel) than Cross-eyed (eyes aligned like you were looking at something closer).

If you go cross-eyed, the depth is reversed/incorrect since you are seeing the different images with the wrong eye.

Not if for all of those months you were at the prime seat to observe what "is" being this awesome person than you can be and learned from it.

I think it would be the very best option: you get a free, extensive course of "life as a person" and then get another chance to apply all that for the rest of your life.

Homelab upgrade - "Modern" alternatives to NFS, SSHFS? (sh.itjust.works)

Hi all!

I will soon acquire a pretty beefy unit compared to my current setup (3 node server with each 16C, 512G RAM and 32T Storage).

Currently I run TrueNAS and Proxmox on bare metal and most of my storage is made available to apps via SSHFS or NFS.

I recently started looking for "modern" distributed filesystems and found some interesting S3-like/compatible projects.

To name a few:

  • MinIO
  • SeaweedFS
  • Garage
  • GlusterFS

I like the idea of abstracting the filesystem to allow me to move data around, play with redundancy and balancing, etc.

My most important services are:

  • Plex (Media management/sharing)
  • Stash (Like Plex 🙃)
  • Nextcloud
  • Caddy with Adguard Home and Unbound DNS
  • Most of the Arr suite
  • Git, Wiki, File/Link sharing services

As you can see, a lot of download/streaming/torrenting of files accross services. Smaller services are on a Docker VM on Proxmox.

Currently the setup is messy due to the organic evolution of my setup, but since I will upgrade on brand new metal, I was looking for suggestions on the pillars.

So far, I am considering installing a Proxmox cluster with the 3 nodes and host VMs for the heavy stuff and a Docker VM.

How do you see the file storage portion? Should I try a full/partial plunge info S3-compatible object storage? What architecture/tech would be interesting to experiment with?

Or should I stick with tried-and-true, boring solutions like NFS Shares?

Thank you for your suggestions!

All we have are scriptures and texts that could have been a series of meme that built/improved from eachother but lost the common knowledge between the generations that it was fictional.
