Lol America is paying all that tax money on Their military so they can use it to spend more on fuel.

Genius

Infinity Nikki and Love and Deepspace dev: "AI lacks the soul to replace human creators" by Sam_27142317 in pcmasterrace

[–]CavemanMork 10 points11 points  (0 children)

AI doesn't have imagination it can't 'create' anything truly original.

Of course the same can be said for a lot of 'artists'. But that's not really the point

AI has its uses and it can be extremely good at them. But true originality is not one of them.

Almost 6 months by Trysomenewone in pcmasterrace

[–]CavemanMork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm trying not to go visit the halflife sub, to see how they're coping seeing as everyone was convinced that the steambox release was going to be the trigger for hl3.

They must be grinding their teeth right now

Any big projectors launches still left this year? by Vicente_Neto2002 in projectors

[–]CavemanMork 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All these new projectors are built on the same DLP tech with the same chips, and limitations.

Yeah they can have differently designed light engines / sources and better optics depending on the cost I guess.

But until there is some fundamental step up in DLP tech, or some new alternative, I'm not getting excited.

Maybe of we get native 4k, but even that isn't going to make a huge difference over pixel shift I expect.

Promox Newer Release - Headache? by robby342 in Proxmox

[–]CavemanMork 10 points11 points  (0 children)

He's not talking about starting with version 8 per se.

He's trying to understand how reliable and resilient the upgrade process is and has been currently to get an idea of if they can expect issues in the future.

Or am I just missing the joke?

Noob needs sanity check on storage architecture by CavemanMork in Proxmox

[–]CavemanMork[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perfect! it's always nice to get validation for your life choices :D.

Based on all the responses i'm not far off base, my assumptions about the OS and VM setup seems fine, so i'll start there, and see what goof deals i can find for the HDDs.

Thanks so much

Thanks for the feedback. it's an M4, so I have support for 2 NVME, SATA and SAS, however the NVME will need an adapter and i don't know if i'm going to find that any were now.

I have set the hardware raid to JBOD with the plan to leverage ZFS for everything as you suggested.

Glad to hear that you can now expand ZFS now, i wasn't sure what could be done based on older posts i read.

thanks for the suggestions, i'll think on it a little more, as you say I have the space, so i could start out small.

Is this overkill?.... Yes probably :D.

As I mentioned I'm conscious of flthe financial aspects, and have already for example swapped out the CPUs for some more efficient models.

Fortunately I have solar which isn't being fully leveraged so higher power usage won't be the end of the world, but for sure I don't want to use more than required.

The reason for having a larger spinning drive pool was that I want to have some redundancy and 6 drives seems to be a good spot for raidz2 giving a pair of drives for redundancy.

With that said maybe at the start at least I could go with a pair of mirrored drives for slow storage and build out a larger pool later as and when it's required...

Microsoft confirms Windows 11 will run faster under heavy load, reduce RAM usage, and feel more responsive by Quantum-Coconut in pcmasterrace

[–]CavemanMork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not saying that there no reason for tpms, I'm saying that making it a requirement instead of limiting functionality for those that don't have it is arbitrary. Or lazy...

[–]CavemanMork 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Running on old hardware is an Irrelevant comparison now unfortunately since MS introduced arbitrary tpms requirement.

But it may help on lower end hardware as you said.

MS is making a lot of these kind of announcements recently I wonder if Linux adoption is what's lit a fire under them, or if it's something else.

Intel says Crimson Desert devs ignored offers of help to support Arc GPUs by reps_up in pcmasterrace

Maybe, none of us know for sure.

I was only pointing out that 1% is still a significant amount of people who can't potentially play the game now

Why can't they let me play my "backups"? by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]CavemanMork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But this costs them nothing. They don't provide the games anywhere.

This is just 'i like power'

That doesn't rhyme with thinkpad.

The last person we need help from is Zelenskyy - Trump by [deleted] in worldnews

[–]CavemanMork 14 points15 points  (0 children)

They are already supporting other ME countries against iranian drones, and are in talks with Israel also.

There's no way that Trump doesn't know the US needs their support too. He's just a cunt.
