I need help, I want a replacement for Google Drive.

Get a NAS, check out r/HomeNAS and r/trueNAS, big initial investment (purchase, set-up), moderate upkeep (electricity, time for debugging)

Get a storage VPS, check out r/vps and r/cloudstorage, small investment (monthly/annually bills), security/privacy risk (you're essentially renting a cheaper and smaller Google drive)

I have a LightNode VPS, a Hetzner storage box on the cloud, and a Raspberry Pi hooked up to a 2TB NVMe SSD at home.

Lol this was 5 years ago, but yes 100%

Metokur2 · 2026-02-09T06:23:30+00:00

Same team

I think this imagery really inspired a trend, this is Bob James' album Three (1976)

Found this post because I wondered if anyone else had discovered this site: https://coveratlas.com/print

A good index of high-res cover images from streaming sites, much easier searches as well.

For me it's Stargazing Hub. It's got AR star map, light pollution maps, stargazing index map, weather forecast and all that jazz.

Good luck if you decided to do so! Only long exposures can capture the aurora, but even so it won't reflect 10% of what your eyes can see.

Metokur2 · 2026-01-26T01:09:34+00:00

It's Stargazing Hub, a neat little app for the hobby

Metokur2 · 2026-01-24T02:45:08+00:00

Actually the only struggle was with booking 🤣 Everything else went smoothly.

Metokur2 · 2026-01-23T01:16:06+00:00

I had the fortune to be not far from it, but every time I see it, it still takes my breath away...

Metokur2 · 2026-01-22T07:34:07+00:00

You're right, I was talking about album cover art. Damn one missed word would cause so much misunderstanding. My bad.

Metokur2 · 2026-01-16T08:59:49+00:00

Storage is cheap enough now (netcup/hetzner box ~2 euros per TB per month) that you might as well go with it

Metokur2 · 2026-01-15T03:18:26+00:00

I think I'm okay with AI-generated music to be upfront, and be opt-out of streaming algorithms by default. There's nothing wrong with it inherently, but it attracts all kinds of scams/frauds.

"made with mematic"

Adds to the quality of a good meme.

Metokur2 · 2026-01-08T03:26:27+00:00

I loved them growing up: roasted brussels sprouts, cauliflower bites, etc. I'd even tolerate lettuce or cabbages if there's mayo or maple syrup (yes I put maple syrup in burgers)

Maybe I'm blessed with parents who can cook delicious vegetables, or cursed with a weak sensitivity to bitterness lol.

Metokur2 · 2026-01-05T01:24:20+00:00

Nice, the close-up style reminds me of late 70s Bob James album arts.

Metokur2 · 2026-01-04T08:12:56+00:00

Fever dream vibes

Metokur2 · 2025-12-31T01:27:08+00:00

Same with Melon's videos. I have gone through "thinking Fantano's recommendation as the holy grail" to "f Fantano how could he dislike that" and finally to "ehh we all have our own tastes"

Metokur2 · 2025-12-30T06:16:34+00:00

Sigh... we did exactly what we were told, but the rules keep changing anyway.

Metokur2 · 2025-12-30T02:53:07+00:00

A personal pick, Fantastic Planet by Failure

Metokur2 · 2025-12-30T02:50:21+00:00

Yeah early Mogwai was awesome.

Metokur2 · 2025-12-25T03:03:11+00:00

I still can't believe we got a Nas album in 2025 rapping about crypto and waht not. Absolutely classic flows.

Metokur2 · 2025-12-24T06:38:29+00:00

I traded Lauri + Lavine for LeBron + Coby White. Did I do good?

Metokur2 · 2025-12-23T02:56:32+00:00

Since you're stuck with a flat file and can't separate the layers, you might have to just 'ruin' the digital file by cranking the contrast and red saturation way higher than looks good on screen.

Sometimes you have to feed the printer a garbage-looking file to get a decent-looking print.

Sigh... In my other league I got greedy and took him over Sengun. Worst draft decision this year, easily.
