Fair, my home office is a monument to too much free time, a hoarding habit for ewaste, and a wife who works weekends and overnights.

That is a self-made soldering kit box I made when I was in college and had to haul it around a lot. I have actually been meeting to replace it with something more permanent now that I’m a grown up with my own house. I have an air flow soldering rig which doesn’t really have a home, and I could have a much better use of space. I have my brocade ICX6610-24 next to that which I’ve been programming for way too long, and a whole bunch of 3D printer parts on top of that.
I’ve done some of that, recently I have an old putty knife and I will put it right against the crack and just hammer it which will unstick it enough that I can pull it off. Newer drives definitely have weaker magnets than some of my much older ones.
I started collecting in probably 2007, so manufactured before that for sure.
That’s rad, and you did an amazing job keeping them whole. Recently I have been wrapping them in cloth, then the kids form clay around them for various fridge and office magnets.
Yes. Look here, the plan is per-device, and the capacity is unlimited: https://www.crashplan.com/pricing/ . I think the restore would be extremely painful, it’s not a fast pipe, but the bigger you go that’s gonna be an issue no matter what.
I don’t have the exactly solution for you, but I went through this a while ago and came up with using openLDAP for this. It’s not tidy at all, but it was a tremendous learning experience, and I documented it in 2 blog posts which may be interesting to you; I doubt you’ll want to do what I did, but it was informative and has worked flawlessly since. I documented some of the flaws I found in options I considered at the time:

I think discovery seasons 1 and 2 were fine and help as a precursor to snw which is great, but for sure skip discovery seasons 3 and 4
I’m not an expert, but I’ve been using TrueNas Scale since I cut over from TrueNAS core, and before that Freenas, since about 2010. I have a bunch of lessons and assumptions, but someone can correct me if these are misguided, they’re my tl;dr of knowledge.
You mention Jellyfin…my struggles with that were never storage. My struggles there were networking; it was a big part of why I decided to upgrade my server networking to 10G, which supported running Jellyfin on another hypervisor and having all that go over the network.
For most systems, ext4 because it seems stable and uncomplicated.
For my NAS and big data, ZFS. People whose opinions I trust recommend it, and to the best of my technical ability to evaluate said things, the claims make sense and seem to be extremely beneficial against the threats I perceive to my data.
The pi4 especially is great for proof of concept or MVP testing, but I often migrate to VMs on my proxmox hypervisor once something becomes critical. I started Shinobi, pihole, and home assistant on a pi4.
Tt-rss though the developer can be a bit abrasive if you go asking for help. Been using it since the icanhaz days.
I really feel like all the TNG content as of late has felt so recycled and fan service without bringing much to the table. Trek is always the best when it is commentary on an optimistic view of humanity told on the stage of space exploration and geopolitics. “Borg changelings…but different Borg than the Borg we did last season or the season before that” isn’t it. Also, Trek always balanced stakes so well…either the ship or the planet they were on was at risk, or maybe a tense situation with a known galactic enemy, but galaxy-extiction events were rare and built up to. We are now 3 for 3 of galaxy ending events that were only averted by having one decrepid old celebrity in the right place and time…it’s lost me.
Crashplan can’t tell the difference between local folders and NFS mounts, and they have an unlimited size backup plan per device for like $10/month. I have 1 device with NFS mounts from many desktops and my Nas. About 9TB.
Subdomain; overall cheaper after a certain point to get a wildcard cert, and if you split your services up without a reverse proxy it’s easier to direct names to different servers.
It feels manipulative to paint this whole thing as if there is a violence risk to reddit employees. Spez is seeing hate because of his direct actions and he is, IMHO, deserving of a lot of the vitriol. Also, this is clearly a management move, not a decision by employees. Lastly, reddit gear exists for non reddit employees, I’ve seen meetups with users in reddit shirts. I think that comment was a dog whistle to playing the victim under the guise of being a nice guy to his employees, when his direct action is causing the problem.
Lots. I have 2 proxmox hypervisors and 3 Raspberry Pi’s; my OS of choice for servers is Ubuntu Server or Raspbian.
Experimental:
It’s a lot for the homeland, but I love zabbix
