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.

Do not like alcohol that much

Not sure about the thumb one but for screws with only have:

• Visser : sens des aiguilles d’une montre (clockwise)
• Dévisser : sens contraire des aiguilles d’une montre (anti clockwise)

It’s in French but the lyrics are a cover letter for a job, telling the hard truth about how she is unhappy to apply to an unknown company for a job she doesn’t want to do, only because she needs money.

Hardware related on a Linux home built NAS.

My mobo has 2 nvme ports and supports 10th and 11th gen intel cpu. I have a 10th gen i5 and 2 nvme ssd for cache.

The biggest 512Gb ssd is on the front (normal) side of the mobo, under a heatsink. The smaller 128Gb is under the mobo, inaccessible once fixed onto the case.

In bios and in OS I can’t see the 512 cache drive, only the 128. Quick RTFM on the motherboard manual states: “Front nvme slot only works with 11th gen cpu”.

FFS 🤦‍♂️

The server is fully built in a hard to fit everything ITX case.

Guess who is having only 128Gb cache instead of disassembling everything ?

From the forum in my comment below.

Yup, they used it, only for paratroopers but they had some.

Terrot 500 RGSTA ?

Peugeot 175 D4 ?

From this forum (en français bien sûr). It speak about motorbike since 1950, so that would make sense with Indochine and I think I can recognise some of the models from archive photos. It says that before 1950, French army used a bunch of brands like BMW, Harley, Triumph, Gnome et Rhone and others from 1930 and WWII, but from 1950 and onwards they tried to harmonise the material and the list is on the forum.

Otherwise, your best bet would be searching for CEFEO material (corps expéditionnaire français en Extrême-Orient) as it was the more involved in the war.

There is a book about material used in this war but I don’t know if they wrote anything about motorbikes.

The forum from the first link seems to be a good source of information tho.

As an atheist I agree, but I don’t think it as anything to do with religion.

It’s all about faith, in the sense of a strong belief in something. Be it a god, aliens, a spaghetti monster or just yourself.

Religion does provide that yes, their daily beliefs become auto suggestions that their subconscious brain accepts, making mental health and life easier.

But anyone can achieve the same outside of religions.

A kind of Indian grill in Basel (Switzerland). It was rated 4.8 stars on google maps but I failed to notice that all the reviews were made by German/Swiss-German peoples (we come from the French and Italian parts of the country with a French and Italian food culture).

The hella expensive meat platter was undercooked and served with a ketchup and mayonnaise mix. Ketchup and mayo at an Indian place ! They also made us pay 2 francs for a glass of tap water when we had their most expensive dish and a bottle of wine. Fuck them, and fuck those tasteless German speaking reviewers.

All my worst food experiences happened in the German part of Switzerland so now I’m super cautious of what I eat when I travel there.

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.

Yeah I love it. It’s one of the only itx case with 8 hdds and a SAS backplate.

Honestly it was the hardest part to find, I waited for months before having an auction on one.

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.

I won’t drink with you today

I mean, they wrote “learn” with quotation marks so… 🤷🏻‍♂️

I know that’s why I’m staying with that brand. I am just looking for another model, I probably don’t need all the fuss features of the top of the line model.

Well that’s true. I was looking at a Zojirushi rice cooker

One of its selling point is: ‘Advanced fuzzy logic technology with AI (Artificial Intelligence) “learns” and adjusts the cooking cycle to get perfect results’

I immediately said no thanks and looked for another model without that, and probably cheaper. It’s a rice cooker FFS!

+1 here, just a personal portfolio for my books. Or what I call a “site vitrine” in French (showcase website) so it is a very simple mostly static website.

I have read here on lemmy that “being sober is a super power” and I do want to be a super hero too.

So take care people, IWDWYT !stopdrinking@lemmy.world

For me it’s Quebec and Kilo, even after more than 15 years in aviation.

Like for spelling my handle here, my first reflex is to say Sierra Quebec uniform…Uuuh no, Sierra Kilo Uniform November Kilo.

I think that’s the one yes. Decreased food yield from 2040 to 2099 onwards.

Also, even if I’m not into that, an old fart like Nostradamus or something like that (I don’t remember his name) wrote at the time that humanity will be greatly reduced around the first part of the 21th century. And now scientific studies more or less agree with that.

I have hope that humanity will change, I have zero hope that the ones who can do things (industries, huge corporations, rich peoples, politicians) will do something.

Apparently it’s better to die seated on unused billions rather than having a living world for your kids.
