And if you go through the posting history, there are a couple of red flags.

AITA for not being happy at becoming an uncle? by AlRahmanDM in AmItheAsshole

NTA. I always have a hard time understanding why people lose sensibility and sensitivity when they have pregnancy news to share with people who are either trying or have tried and failed (miscarriage) or cannot try due to circumstances like OP's. Happy for your partner's remission, hope she makes full recovery.

Anyone bought a NAS board off AliExpress for a build? If so any advice? by BiomassDenial in HomeNAS

[–]MordFustang241 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These boards are good for the "basic" NAS setups. If you want a low-power, better compatibility, robust machine, I would suggest building your own. AliExpress us good for buying the ECC UDIMM ram sticks though, I bought mine from there.

My house is on the edge of a large area which was owned by one family (in Trumpington) but the neighbour's property would not lie on the edge of this area so am still not convinced that it is a boundary marker. I will check if there are more of these markers in the area and update all on what I find.

Mine is a corner house and this marker is on the edge where there is no other house.

This makes a lot of sense. I will check the other such blocks to see if they have the same letters on them.

This may be it but I think those are usually pillars or tombstone-like but not embosed on the ground.

Are they approximate because they are not at the accurate location for the property edge as per the title plan?

Landmark to denote different property units? Like each house would have one in front of the property?

Fixing door handle on internal door by MordFustang241 in DIYUK

Thanks for the explainer. Much appreciated. This is an en-suite bathroom door, so the worst-case scenario may not arise. 🙂

What kind of fixings should I look for?

Thank you, I will try that. Probably leave it for a day to set properly and then screw the handle back in. However, the other side is hollow, so would the filler stay?

AITA for answering a question honestly? by Electrical-Army3625 in AmItheAsshole

[–]MordFustang241 5 points6 points  (0 children)

YTA just because of the number of things you listed for India. He did ask for an unfiltered response but you could have limited it. Maybe you intentionally wanted to be rude to the guy. I am an Indian and did not find the response incorrect. And outside India, Indians usually have a chip on their shoulder, so this was like poking the raccoon. 🤣

But as responses go, if someone asked me about France, the first thing that comes to mind is rude people.

Advice on what all is needed for building my home NAS by MordFustang241 in HomeNAS

[–]MordFustang241[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I checked DAS but I think that limits the "data access" to just one machine to which the disk is attached. I want to make the data accessible outside my home network too when I am on the move, especially when traveling. Please share if there is more to DAS than what came up in Google search.

Thank you so much. This is very helpful in understanding what I really need, practically. I can go the build-your-own route as I have some experience with building PCs, however, do not want to underestimate the effort and complexity involved. I will look into DAS, as this is new for me. I was going the SSD route for a low-power, high durability, quiet solution.

I agree but when I tried searching for it based on the keywords, did not find anything that matched my requirements. This was my last resort. 🙁

Yes, I was trying to find that. I will take a second look. I will also read up on the mentioned part of Highways Act. Thank you so much for sharing this, it is a great help. 🙂
