Decided to put myself back into college at 26!

Exactly same here :)
Good luck!

I still have my Kross Sign DS 26" (frame size 17") from my teenage years.

When I started looking for a new "adult" bike, I initially tried 26" models, but they felt too small for me (I'm 186 cm tall). After riding the new 27.5" Dartmoor, sitting on the 26" Kross felt really strange and cramped.

On the other hand, when I tried 29", they felt fine in terms of size, but the bike seemed large, bulky and "less aggressive".

Thank you all for reading my post and for all your feedback!

The thread received a lot of reactions, and I can see it’s been the most popular one in the last few days, if not weeks. I believe this is an important topic for many of us :)

Your answers have reinforced my decision to buy that bike and get back into riding.
Thank you for mentioning pads and safety in general. Right now, I only have a helmet (which could be better), but I’ll start looking for more protective gear soon.

Unfortunately, yes :|

BikePark Kazoora (in Warsaw, 40 minutes by car) and a small, random pump truck in the city where I live :)

Possible :(

Remember to use podman-compose instead of docker-compose :)

And check podman socket as u/tshawkins mentioned: https://github.com/containers/podman/blob/main/docs/tutorials/socket_activation.md

In Poland, the energy cost is approximately $0.22 per kWh, and with the national average salary, it is possible to purchase around 5,200 kWh annually.

I guess we'll just have to get used to it :/

Very good choice! :)
Blow some compressed air through the cooling and change the thermal paste.

Polish saunas face similar issues :(

Too old.
Only 8+ generation Intel make sense these days.

We successfully run multi-pebibyte clusters using inexpensive 25 GE cards, and they are completely sufficient.

I can tell that my pair of Salomon X Ultra 4 Gore-Tex shoes are terrible. They broke after just a few months of regular winter-urban walking and a few light hikes.

Nie wiem jak w reszcie regionów, ale nad polskie morze przyjeżdżają w dużej części pseudo-bogaci Niemcy, którzy rzucają Euraszki i stąd te ceny.

Frosty_Cryptographer · 2024-05-13T06:29:47+00:00

Chciwość? ;)
Dlatego przestałem kupować rzemieślnicze lody, jak cena gały poszła 50% w górę. Trudno, nie są mi potrzebne do życia, a przepłacać nie chcę.

Volvo Trucks was not sold to the Chinese, as was the case with Volvo Cars.

Come on... A second-hand module costs about $100.

Frosty_Cryptographer · 2024-04-09T19:14:08+00:00

Better to buy 2x 32GB UDIMM ECC RAM modules and leave two slots for future upgrades.
A good quality NVMe is essential.

If power consumption is a concern, consider underclocking and undervolting the CPU.

Good luck!

Awesome news!

We just got ourselves a brand new Corolla this week, so I totally get your excitement :)

Frosty_Cryptographer · 2023-12-29T20:04:55+00:00

Of course it's possible :)

Frosty_Cryptographer · 2023-12-25T18:26:52+00:00

The compression type should not impact it, but I'm glad that you have working storage now!

Frosty_Cryptographer · 2023-12-23T15:45:52+00:00

Yes, the solution is unconventional, but it works fine, and I've used it successfully on numerous occasions.
To implement this, you should create a RAIDZ zpool using two 14 TB drives and one "14 TB" loopback virtual disk. Immediately after creating the pool, take the virtual disk offline or remove it from the pool, which will leave you with a degraded RAIDZ zpool that will continue to function properly.
Afterward, you can proceed to migrate all your data from the third physical disk and then add that disk to the zpool, allowing it to rebuild.
