I’ve had good luck with goharddrive.com. They sell through amazon as well, but I believe they ship direct. I usually get the hgst, or now wd, ultrastar hard drives. I’ve had zero issues.

In utah, I can average 80 mph on a road trip, in the houston texas area I can go maybe 20 mph average, so time is a lot more useful of a measure.

My parents’ isp setup a static dhcp entry per customer. If you change the mac address of your router you don’t get an address. The address you get with the proper mac address is constant and can’t be changed.

Also trains the next generation to think these kinds of privacy violations are ok, when they are not.

Might do kind of what you want.

could use nextcloud with s3, might work for what you need.

Yeah, it would be nice if those were still made.

I feel like a pretty good vehicle for a lot of people like that who need a truck sometimes and don’t want a second vehicle could be one of the new small diesel trucks, like the ram ecodiesel. 30mpg is more than even most compact SUVs get, it’s still a truck for people that like that, and it can haul/tow more than a compact suv as well.

A big problem with 2 vehicles instead of 1 is often that insurance costs so much more, even if you’re driving the same number of miles as when you had 1 vehicle. Registration fees too.

I do and it’s fine.

I used to have a separate machine for server stuff but it just cost more in electricity since I would leave them both on 24x7 anyway.

I’ve got 64G of ram and I often use up to 48 of it with various VMs. I wouldn’t get any power savings with a separate server since I have a cron job to transcode everything that plex recorded off of TV during the day to av1 for disk space savings (usually turns 3GB of mpeg2 into 700MB of av1), so I would need a server with a moderately powerful cpu anyway for that.

I have a ryzen 3700X. got it since it was the highest performance that was still 65w tdp at the time, didn’t want to spend a ton on electricity and extra air conditioning since I would be leaving it running 24x7.

The only time I notice a performance impact during gaming is if my windows 11 vm is running, I don’t really need that one running 24x7 so I shut that one down if it happens to be running at the time.

I’m pretty sure you can set alacritty and kitty to a ridiculously high number of scrollback lines, like at least several trillion. I think I just add 4 zeros on to the default and I’ve never had enough output for it to run out of scrollback. At some point you’re going to run out of ram or storage for storing scrollback so you can’t realistically have unlimited scrollback without doing something ridiculous.
