Since you brought up salad, any lettuce other than iceberg, lest we forget arugala-gate

Except they were seen as property and not part of the state.

What's it from? Because Poe's Law…

I took the Empire Builder from Seattle to Chicago, and then I forget which through W Va up to Philly. It was a great few days watching the countryside roll by.

Hundreds have already fallen out of orbit this year alone.

But just think how blazing fast the speeds will be! When they're hurtling out of orbit and crashing into your house!

I have a 220+. It works well for what it's supposed to be. If you want a set it and forget it nas, this is a good one. However, after a year and a half, I'm ready to move on for the same reason I don't like Apple: too walled garden. It was a great starter nas, but it's too limiting now. But again, of you don't want to think about it and just have it work, it's a good choice.

The LLM for home assistant, or just HA in general doesn't move the needle? My HA is also pretty low key, but I was considering the idea of running my own small llm to use with HA to get off of OpenAI. My current AI usage is very small, so I wouldn't need too much on the GPU side I'd imagine, but I don't know what's sufficient.

I think I mentioned somewhere, but if not, over the last couple of years I learned a lot about the software side of running my homelab via synology and the vps's, but I still know almost nothing about hardware, so this is all really useful information. Thanks!

So I want to reduce the cooling, CPU (get one with integrated graphics), and motherboard, and not necessary but look into adding ssd and more memory.

I'm okay with spending a bit up front if it'll last a long time, but I also don't want to buy too much and be useless.

Yeah, I posted this assuming I would get a lot of comments about it being more than I needed, and this was already me paring it down. But then I got a lot of comments saying to add more memory, reduce the cooling, and add a ssd but otherwise not much about reducing it.

Then how does Australia get a pass?

Yeah, I'm not sure if I really want to deal with an llm. It would mostly be for home assistant, so nothing too crazy.
