So just swap new drives in one at a time, after backing your data up just in case. I upgraded mine to 4x10 drives 3-4 years ago, and its painless as long as you wait for the resilvering process to complete.

Must just be your area. Where I live we have roundabouts all around (I have to go through 3 of them to get to my closest hardware store) and I don’t really see that many people that have issues with them. Worst we have to deal with are cars who are too slow to get into the roundabout and wait forever, or drive slowly and clog up the roundabout, but those are pretty rare thankfully.

Using m/all is how i find a lot of the content I like. There’s a lot of magazine blocking to get rid of the trash I don’t want, and that allows me to get a moderately different feed than my main subscription page.

Wholesalers squeezing buyers because they can.

Because capitalism means that you always have to keep making more money year over year even if you’re not doing anything more than you ever were. So sometimes the only way to do it is to squeeze your customers even harder.

I’ve heard really good things about Hover, that’s probably where I’m going to go once I get close to renwal

You might be in luck, I see this under optional settings for items:

Arbitrary/Custom Fields

You’d need to log into your router to see if it’s enabled. Assuming you’ve got standard consumer grade stuff, it’s likely on by default because it makes things like console multiplayer 'just work’s without needing someone to go in and port forward stuff.

Before I built my home network, any Linksys/Netgear/etc router I used had that disabled when I was doing my initial setup.

That looks like a really neat util, and I can’t wait to find a docker container to spin that up.

Yes, the firewall is still your transition point from your internal network to your ISP network. Just like with ipv4, you should be configuring your ipv6 firewall to only allow designated traffic into your network from the internet.

My rack looks to pull about 325-350W. I need to downgrade my main server, as it’s a bit overkill as a decommed proliant. Need to figure out a high ram nuc as a replacement

You’re welcome!

I don’t know how new it is, as I’ve been running it for a while now, but it’s pretty good as a video host. I run it through docker and the only issue I’ve run into is when I lose connection to my NAS I lose the db until I restart the container, and it keeps all the watch/collection info once that’s restored.

Have you thought about using something like jellyfin? I run both plex and jellyfin at home for videos, for normal and porn vids respectively. Jellyfin lets me put stuff in categories, but I’ve not done much with the searching portion, so I can’t help there. Has support for images, might support gifs too, idk.
