Or you could encrypt the snapshot before it goes to sleep.

I agree. Unraid is great because it is user friendly and easily scalable. I started using it a few years ago just to set up a NAS with two HDDs and a Plex library and now have over 50 containers and 8 drives. That’s the beauty of it. You want more drives, just add one. I feel like TrueNAS is probably technically better but this feature was really important to me because I had a feeling that scaling up would be in my future.

The community is very supportive and SpaceInvader One is an amazing resource, as well as Trash (SIO is not trash, Trash is the name of another resource lol)

Sorry - I didn't mean to be insulting with the word ignorant. I meant it literally, not pejoratively. That is, in order to believe that there is no trend of boomers having less digital literacy than millennials, you have to ignore the facts that not only present themselves in obvious and ubiquitous anecdotes, but also have been well studied and published.

I disagree. I don’t think it’s age specifically, but rather your date of birth if that makes sense. It’s not that once you reach a certain age you are incapable of understanding something new. Millennials are good with technology because we grew up in a time where the internet was blooming and it made sense to adopt it into our lives. A lot of what we learned with regards to how the world works was through technology. Boomers already had a life that worked fine before the internet and had good reason to reject it. Now that technology is at the heart of everything they are decades behind millennials in their learning curve.

Obviously there are boomers who are tech wizards (and many whom we owe for how technology has shaped us for good or for bad) and there are millennials who suck at it. But to deny that there is no trend is ignorant.

On the other hand, as more time passes the technology involved in ocean cleanup may improve.

I’m a teacher too and it shocks me. Even kids who are successful in school struggle to use a file system — usually just dumping everything into google drive and “searching it up” when they need it. I almost never see a kid directly type a url (let alone know what a url is) since they google everything.

I’ve even had this interaction:

“Why are you googling everything?” “I’m not googling this is safari, I have an iPhone”

In a lot of ways I think they’re worse than boomers. At least they’re good at making tik tok videos!

Same. It’s a shame. I started following Linus since the GT 400 series in 2010, in the NCIX days. Bought my first graphics card under his advice (an MSI GT460 Cyclone). I always appreciated his consumer first approach to reviews, and found his ambition and entrepreneurial spirit inspiring. Watching his company grow from the ground up was very exciting and I was always happy to see the next stage of LMG unfold. Watching him move into the house and make the kitchen set, do the whole room water cooling, and then the warehouse (to name a few) have been really exciting milestones that I’ll never forget.

The past few years have been different. He’s started to become quite the narcissist, and it’s been weird watching him try to defend his awful hot takes on WAN show. It’s bizarre watching him never admit fault or admit that something that he’s done was wrong. Even in the most petty of objections, like a stupid contest on Channel Super Fun. I’m pretty sure he’s won every contest he’s been in - the race against Emily in the tech support challenge, all (I think) of the scrapyard wars he was in, and pretty much anything else that comes to mind. I always found that to be kind of pathetic for the CEO/leader of a company. I’ve always wondered if that kind of mentality bled into other aspects of his leadership.

I’ve mostly stopped consuming their content but occasionally I’ll watch a couple of their videos. I’m not sure if I’m going to cut them out cold turkey but I think I’ll take a break at least until the dust settles. Certainly, if/when Emily returns I would really like to support her.

If it’s not running Linux could one not just… install Linux? I wouldn’t be surprised if drivers were out before long.

Installation is fairly painless. It’s set and forget for the most part.

People don’t need to log in using your google account. Anyone with an account (can be several other types of authentication, not just google) can have access to any of your servers, you just have to share it with them.

I watched one by accident a few weeks ago. It was the audio that threw me off. You could hear people chatting. But the video looked not half bad - I figured it had just been transcode poorly or something.

The most important thing about learning math is the learning. It’s kind of like reading. Will you ever use reading in your life? Not always. But will it make you a more well rounded, interesting person? Probably.

Don’t get me wrong, there are countless applications of math that our society relies on for peace prosperity and health, but that shouldn’t be the motivation to learning math. That should be a government’s incentive to investing in good math education.

Being good at math means you are a good problem solver, have grit, and know how to work hard at something. It also means you’re probably not afraid of memorizing a few things, which is actually a good thing. As a math teacher (and someone with 10 years of math education myself) I have not yet met anybody who is good at math and didn’t have to work very hard at it. There is no faking being good at math.

So many average Joes use ABP. They should use ublock origin, but they’re average Joes.
