  • Nope nothing about race, the name was just an answer to blackpeopletwitter, which is the same idea. Posting screenshots of funny tweets.

    There’s one here on lemmy !whitepeopletwitter@sh.itjust.works

    From what I’ve read the sub got ban after mods took time to delete violent comments about DOGE employees. Their names got leaked, peoples started to say dumb shit, often violent. Musk threw a fit about it and Reddit banned the sub.

    Making death threats is obviously a good reason for a ban but apparently the reason Reddit gave (unmoderated sub) was false as there’s screenshots of the post being actively moderated with plenty of deleted messages. But it’s those kind of posts with 18k comments so I guess it was moving too fast for the moderator team.

    I might be wrong, I just read about that from the r/france post our refugees came from. I did not explored in detail as it’s on Reddit and I just don’t care 🤷🏻‍♂️

    I just have my vault default location saved on a cloud drive. iCloud in my case as I have an IPhone but I guess it could be done with any cloud or owncloud if you have a server.

    I used to use Git, but it is easier to just move the vault on a network/cloud drive as you don’t need to pull/push. As obsidian auto save when you type a character this makes the sync instantaneous with zero effort.

    It is very good but depend on what you want to host.

    I have a second hand cheapest M2 with Asahi Linux and some container (like pihole) but not much. I like that it is small, silent and energy efficient (and it can run Xplane12 in 4k !). But I have an homemade NAS so most of the multimedia stuff and containers are on here and not on the MacMini.

    The M4 seems incredible, but Asahi Linux only support M1 and 2 at the moment (it might work with M4 tho).

    The problem with the mini would be disk space if you are looking for a NAS usage, although I have seen here on lemmy a dude making a Mac Mini NAS (can’t find the post anymore).

    But even without Asahi, an M4 with Mac OS, docker and a VM if needed would be plenty of power for price and energy. You can also upgrade to a 10Gbe NIC if your network supports it. Plug it to some screens and you have a workstation + docker server in one place.


  • I feel you. This ITX build is replacing a giant supermicro dual everything beast. I just kept its HDDs and moved everything to the Unraid ITX + some docker running on a M2 MacMini that is always on anyway.

    I said to myself that I’ll resell the supermicro on auctions but still haven’t started to disassemble it.

    Fun fact about divorce. A cute Jonsbo N3 with big Noctua fans is way more for peace and love at home than a 20Kg Supermicro chassis.



  • I was going to post the same link, I generally take inspiration from that forum and then adapt with what I can find on eBay etc for cheap. The prices they give are for US eBay and not always suitable to EU eBay.

    I’ve just finished my new NAS using Unraid OS and some info from the forum.

    • Jonsbo N3 case
    • Gigabyte Z590i Vision D motherboard
    • Intel i5 10400T
    • 2x16Gb DDR4 2666 (basic corsair)
    • LSI 9207-8i HBA in IT-Mode
    • An old 128Gb M2 SSD
    • 8x6Tb HGST SAS drives
    • Corsair SF600 PSU

    It took me more than 6 months to find all the parts at a correct price but I was not in a rush.

    It’s 2.5Gbe and not 10Gb SFP but you get the idea. The cost was really low (lower than 1000) because I already had the HDDs from an older server. It should be around 1500€ max with the disks.

    The real downside of doing that is the time it takes but it’s also a kind of pleasure to hunt for parts and one day assemble them all.
