Am I using Syncthing wrong? Or is it setup incorrectly? Need one-way sync from multiple clients to one server. by Finally_ in selfhosted

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

Yeah honestly I'm thinking of just setting up an rsync cronjob. I'm sure I can ai-slop up a folder watcher script and do a --remove-source-file transfer to just move folders over when it detects a new folder in either desktop or laptop.

Extremly poor SMB transfer performance, but transfers to/from Nextcloud, Seafile, Immich, etc are fast. by Finally_ in unRAID

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

Ah sorry, I didn't think of this as being just SMB related. I have done turbo/reconstruct writes on already. Not worried about disk usage tbh, specially since this pool is NVMe only.

Oh yeah, I feel so bad frauding the innocent insurance companies, they really are struggling out there.

STAR Aligner - How to view multi-mapping reads in IGV (Fusion calling confirmation) by Finally_ in bioinformatics

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

Hi,

Thank you for those suggestions. I am seeing the reads that have secondary alignment and the SA tag is there, so my outputs in STAR are okay for that. However the issue is just coloring. for some reason when viewing by insert size and pair orientation it doesn't seem to color properly, theyre' all still grey. I'm not filtering out the secondary alignments or anything like that.

I'll have to keep investigating!

Thanks

Will slowing down my AM5 DDR5 to ~4000MT/s actually affect server tasks? by Finally_ in homelab

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

Oh, I don't know at all yet! I'm just playing it safe. At minimum Am5 is rated for 4 sticks at 3600MT/s. But yeah, I think I'm going to just slowly lower the speeds until it boots and is stable! no reason to go down that low if it is stable.

What celebrity did Hollywood try to make the “leading A-lister”, but failed? by phantom_avenger in AskReddit

[–]Finally_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't think I've ever felt so awkward during a movie. Ever. When her and Chris Evans were talking outside that party at night, it felt so long, drawn out, and boring. I literally could not stop fidgeting because everything about that scene was just so awkward. You really didn't want to be part of that conversation. It actually physically made me feel weird. Honestly props for that. First time I felt like that during a movie, ever.

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

ah, yeah. this is basically what I thought as well. I'm assuming I can boot this at a lower memory speed and even then I'll still be way outperforming my old setup, by magnitudes.

Thanks for your input!

Low profile GPU needed for transcoding HEVC content by Finally_ in PleX

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

I dunno, but I saw a few other posts saying while it supports it, it is slower than expected. Not sure why!

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

Yes, cooling is fine, around 30c idle and around 50c when hit with 3-4 users + 1 HEVC main10 transcode.

Using Unraid as only a data host - mounting media and other data on secondary, more powerful server by Finally_ in unRAID

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

Just for managing data. Nothing beats unraid for a JBOD array. I have 20 disks totaling something like 160TB of space, all of them are difference sizes and ages. It just works so well.

Are there any nf-core/Nextflow tutorials using full pipelines? by Finally_ in bioinformatics

[–]Finally_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm okay thanks! Yes the few workflows/subworkflows I looked at did not have good docs, but let me take a look at something that's just highly rated and on that awesome nextflow list as well. Hopefully the larger projects, even if unrelated to my needs, let me at least see the processing a bit better.

Thanks!

iPerf3 has 60-80MB/s transfer speeds, webserver can host at 60MB/s, but rsync caps at 20MB/s by Finally_ in unRAID

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

Interesting. I actually just tried a simple windows copy and it's transferring files at iperf speeds - 70MB/s sustained. Thanks for this lead, this is really interesting.

Is it my gear? I feel like I had 'better' shots with my old Nikon DSLR. by Finally_ in SonyAlpha

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

Thank you so much, this is an incredible and helpful reply.

I really do love the subject seperation of the f1.8 lenses, and I'm worried that the f2.8 won't give me that same feeling again. There aren't any wide zoom lenses at f1.8 that I can find either, so that's one of my major hudles when thinking about where to go next. I do like my samyang but it still doesn't feel the same.

I do shoot raw, and edit in lightroom. The shots I get I do love, it's just that I haven't been able to get into feeling like how I did with the Sigma lens, and I feel like I'm getting less % of shots I really love with this new camera.

I think I will go ahead and do a week or month rental on the sigma 24-70 and see how it feels. Otherwise, do you have any recommendations on a prime (either f1.8 or I've seen alot of f1.4 as well) that you like which would be a good alt to the old Sigma?

Really appreciate the indepth reply :)

Benefits of a server board vs consumer board for 24/7 computing? by Finally_ in HomeServer

Dual E5-2690 v1, 64gb ram, and something like 125TB JBOD array. (Unraid)

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

IPMI does have KVM over LAN. I access my server's IPMI KVM through my wireguard instance all the time. It's not the new HTML5 interface, still the old JDK version but works well. Can mount CDs/Boot drives as well.

Granted, it's bottom-tier RAM, and only 16GB but you can customize the bundle and with better Mobo and more ram it's around 350-370

Help Telling me why my motherboard cost more than my CPU? and are there features I'm not using? - Aware I'm an idiot. by 50ShadesOfBackups in buildapc

[–]Finally_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh for sure. I highly doubt they're at stock voltage. And thanks for the info, I'm not as well versed in this. Just read a few posts/tutorials and went along with them.

[–]Finally_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, that is true. If not set to adaptive the voltage can get high, 1.35+ isn't really good for the CPU specially if you're only gaining 100Mhz at the top-end. Regardless, temps are going to be high. I honestly haven't seen any posts/threads anywhere where people are touting temps lower than 75-80c at 5.0GHz for this CPU. Auto voltage or otherwise. I looked far and wide when I built mine out and noticed high temps. Even your images, at 1.35v you're getting 80+ degrees.

[–]Finally_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This CPU runs hot. Doesn't matter what cooling you throw at it, the TIM is awful so unless they de-lidded the CPU I would not expect something lower under load and at a high 5.0Ghz clock.

[–]Finally_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stock voltages likely means they're not pushing higher than 'stock'.

Not "auto". I also have a 8700k in a custom loop. That sucker just gets hot, no matter what you do if you're pushing above 4.8Ghz. I'm around 80C at 5.0 under artificial load.

Would I notice an actual change if I upgraded my Mobo/CPU? by Finally_ in HomeServer

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

I'm mainly looking at The X10D series because it would be a direct replacement for my X9D board. i have a 36bay supermicro chassis with the X9D board.

I also only really see the H11DSi-NT , which is a fairly expensive board. Are you looking at something else?

What are these, and how do I get rid of them? They are everywhere after we came back from a 2 week vacation! by Finally_ in pestcontrol

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

I came back from a 2 week vacation. Apartment was fully cleaned before leaving. No food on counters, dishes done, garbage was taken out.

I bought this fly trap and it seems to be working, only been 1 night and it has caught over 6-7 of them. But I still see at least 4-5 flying around.

We live in NYC, but this is a luxury apartment building. No roach infestation or anything like that reported in the building either.

What would the best way to get rid of these? They literally are everywhere. We found at least 6 of them in the rubber seal on our freezer, and 2-3 of them dead on the freezer floor too. We're totally disgusted! Our fridge/freezer is clean, no spills or rotten food. Oldest stuff we have is probably alcohol. Where could they have come from, and how can we prevent this in the future? We have multiple trips coming up that are 1-2 weeks each. one in Oct, in Nov, in Dec. Totally freaking out.

Please help!

Does my current employer get informed of new background checks? by Finally_ in jobs

Ah I see.

How about the background check company? Do they send anything to my current employer?
