If you hold down the "o" key on Android you can select 'ø'. Not that that really means anything.

Edit: didn't realize there was hate for PCMR, did something happen?

Absolutely, same here, but if there's music that I simply couldn't find and pay for then I would just use that

I'm on a low carb diet, if I watch that it'll just make me want bread

There's software that let's you easily download your music/playlists to your hard drive. I forget what it's called tho

The fact that someone would shorten 'good morning' to 'GM' and go through the trouble to put it in all caps bothers me

I was really hoping that reading all the comments would inform me about what GM means here

Just got all the hardware set up and working today, super stoked!

In the pic:

  • Raspberry Pi 5
  • Radxa Penta SATA hat for Pi
  • 5x WD Blue 8TB HDD
  • Noctua 140mm fan
  • 12V -> 5V buck convertor
  • 12V (red), 5V (white), and GND (black) distribution blocks

I went with the Raspberry Pi to save some money and keep my power consumption low. I'm planning to use the NAS for streaming TV shows and movies (probably with Jellyfin), replacing my google photos account (probably with Immich), and maybe steaming music (not sure what I might use for that yet). The Pi is running Raspberry Pi Desktop OS, might switch to the server version. I've got all 5 drives set up and I've tested out streaming some stuff locally including some 4K movies, so far so good!

For those wondering, I added the 5V buck convertor because some people online said the SATA hat doesn't do a great job of supplying power to the Pi if you're only providing 12V to the barrel jack, so I'm going to run a USB C cable to the Pi. Also using it to send 5V to the PWM pin on the fan. Might add some LEDs too, fuck it.

Next steps:

  • Set up ~~RAID 5~~ ZFS RAIDz1?
  • 3D print an enclosure with panel mount connectors

Any tips/suggestions are welcome! Will post again once I get the enclosure set up.

 

 

Just thought you should know.

I've read a lot (a LOT) of posts here and elsewhere that made me suspect I have ADHD. I made an appointment to get evaluated. Just curious about other people's experiences.

Hey all, I've been using the Omnipod 5 for 2 or 3 months now and I don't think it's going to work out. 4 or 5 times now, the cannula (the little tube that stabs into you) has fallen out, usually while I'm at my kickboxing class. When I woke up this morning, my blood sugar was high, the sticker that holds the pod on my arm was wet, and it smelled like insulin, so I thought it had fallen out in my sleep. Turns out it had started leaking and the whole fucking reservoir was empty. I'm pretty frustrated, I might just go back to using the pens.

Anybody had any similar experiences? Any other pump suggestions? As far as I know, the Omnipod is the only pump that doesn't have an exterior tube. I can't do tubes.

Edit: I'm really curious what that downvote was for.

 
 

I am of the age to have kids, some of my friends have them, but I have mixed feelings about it, just wondering about other people's experiences.

 

I've been shooting every now and then for the last 20-ish years and I'm a decent shot. I've shot a handful of different pistols, rifles, and shotguns. Leaning towards getting a pistol, not totally sure what I'd get. It would be for home/self defense but I like to go to the range sometimes. I'm considering:

  • Some sort of 1911
  • Ruger LC380 (is it even possible to get a CCW in CA?)

Any thoughts/recommendations?

 
 

First, a hardware question. I'm looking for a computer to use as a... router? Louis calls it a router but it's a computer that is upstream of my whole network and has two ethernet ports. And suggestions on this? Ideal amount or RAM? Ideal processor/speed? I have fiber internet, 10 gbps up and 10 gbps down, so I'm willing to spend a little more on higher bandwidth components. I'm assuming I won't need a GPU.

Anyways, has anyone had a chance to look at his guide? It's accompanied by two youtube videos that are about 7 hours each.

I don't expect to do everything in his guide. I'd like to be able to VPN into my home network and SSH into some of my projects, use Immich, check out Plex or similar, and set up a NAS. Maybe other stuff after that but those are my main interests.

Any advice/links for a beginner are more than welcome.

Edit: thanks for all the info, lots of good stuff here. OpenWRT seems to be the most frequently recommended thing here so I'm looking into that now. Unfortunately my current router/AP (Asus AX6600) is not supported. I was hoping to not have to replace it, it was kinda pricey, I got it when I upgraded to fiber since it can do 6.6gbps. I'm currently looking into devices I can put upstream of my current hardware but I might have to bite the bullet and replace it.

Edit 2: This is looking pretty good right now.
