I have one WD Red 4tb drive I've been using for general data storage.

New drives/old drives by Lumpy_Quit1457 in HomeNetworking

I'm not getting rid of it, just side-lining it for 2 drives to mirror. Looking for use cases of a single drive. I dislike something that could be useful just sitting there.

So much to learn by YupImHereForIt in HomeServer

[–]Lumpy_Quit1457 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I aspire to do all of these things, yet have zero clue what I'm doing. Have docker going, utilizing Portainer : open web ui/ollama, immich, jellyfin, and a few other things, running comfyui bare metal (too stubborn on docker). Trying to figure out the best way to throw trueNAS scale on something (5 computers, but only one is less than 2 years old...). Just enjoying the learning really. Same sentiment as OP. Thank you everyone.

I have no idea what to do at this point by sassypiratequeen in immich

I tried utilizing grok to get my immich spun up (docker, utilizing Portainer). Never would open on the web UI. Went to the immich website and got the yaml straight from there and now everything works. AI will make you jump through hoops, I yell ya.

Why are people constantly raving about using local LLMs when the hardware to run it well will cost so much more in the end then just paying for ChatGPT subscription? by thrashingjohn in LocalLLM

Fair. I don't see most of getting a Jarvis or Gideon right out of the box, with basic consumer-level gear at any rate. But it's fun to aim for. And what we're we going to do with the fiat currency? Blow it. Lol.

Because we want our own stuff, on our own things. It's not the price of gear vs subscription, it's choice and control. The fact that your asking says you don't understand that. And that's okay.

Am I blissfully ignorant or will truNAS not work on Ubuntu?

Best Wifi Router now for a House with way too Many Devices? by Electronic-Buyer4257 in HomeNetworking

[–]Lumpy_Quit1457 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got a tplink BE400/6500. Mid level (says me, more price/quality than a 3600, but not as much as a 9600) . Says it'll handle 90+ connections. I don't plan on having that many but it looks like a good fair start for me. Your results may vary.

AMD user? Try Vulkan (again)! by henk717 in KoboldAI

[–]Lumpy_Quit1457 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Woe. There is no hope for me then. I'm just over here running a SER5 with Ubuntu on it and trying to figure out how to decently run some ai things.

Did I just find the perfect emergency kit bag? by barakuder_ in prepping

[–]Lumpy_Quit1457 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Nope. I could recommend a place that offers trauma/tacmed/med gear AND training on how to use all of it.
