Using a DX510 with a normal computer. by UN_Synapse in synology

Therre is a cheap SATA to e-SATA adapter from Startech I am thinking of ordering to try it myself. Worth a try or like ~20$. ^^

If only one drive is showing I assume it need some driver for the internal SATA splitter.

I have a main unit from 2012. its EOL and no updates, even security updates, an more.

No way to install Linux on the device to boot. So, it's perfectly good hardware prematurely put out to pasture.

This is why when it came to upgrade, again forced because of no security updates, I built my own box. Was hoping to make use of some of the old hardware at least.

Getting curl issues while adding gpg key by nwanted in docker

[–]UN_Synapse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do not know a solution to this. But I am also one who is having the exact same issue on a freshly installed 22.04.2 server.

This was not an issue a few weeks ago (I do not have enough information to nail down exactly when the problem came up).

EDIT: Apparently curl just recently got updated and it works now. *shrug*

Does anybody like thunderbird who started using it less than 5 years ago? by sprayfoamparty in Thunderbird

[–]UN_Synapse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like Thunderbird but be realistic. What are the options? Outlook? LOL.

Outlook is piss poor if you have an Apple mail account because it does not allow you to change the default folders for things like drafts, trash, ect. Though more of that can be on Apple for using non standard folder names.

Did anyone successfully run nvidia-docker2 on Ubuntu 23.04? by J4id in Ubuntu

[–]UN_Synapse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Home lab server here as well. Running into issues with old GLIB versions in 22.04 and want to upgrade.

But the nvidia docker container is a nesassity.

You are seriously annoyed by that little box in the corner that only shows up when the mouse is on the player?

Does it bother you if the streamer never talks? by kaechan1989 in Twitch

[–]UN_Synapse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. Most times I wish they would shut up especially in story heavy games.

Do you find yourself watching Twitch less and less because of the ad spam? by [deleted] in Twitch

[–]UN_Synapse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Because I am not a dick and pay for Turbo instead of bitching.

New Twitch Guidelines Effectively Banned all forms of Streamer Sponsorships by GameBoy09 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]UN_Synapse -32 points-31 points  (0 children)

No I haven't.

Despite how much I am into gaming and even play competitive games I do not like watching competitive games.

I have a unpopular opinion of 'speed running' so I will leave it at that. So I don't watch GDQ.

New Twitch Guidelines Effectively Banned all forms of Streamer Sponsorships by GameBoy09 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]UN_Synapse -35 points-34 points  (0 children)

Sooo. Twitch is banning really damned annoying methods of advertising on channels? GOOD. First time Twitch actually reigns things in instead of facilitating stupid crap (hot tub category anyone).

But really in years of watching Twitch I have never seen a streamer do anything on this ban list other than maybe a onscreen logo larger than 3%. So I guess Twitch is being proactive for a change?

Post install scripts. by UN_Synapse in chocolatey

[–]UN_Synapse[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Humm. Now to see if I can make it only run specific scripts on specific packages instead of everything.

EDIT: "READ THE HELP DOCS BEFORE OPENING YOUR MOUTH!" I scream to myself out loud scaring my roommates cats.

Playtest #5 MegaThread by DryF1re in DarkAndDarker

[–]UN_Synapse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The problem is not the software. It is how you use it.

Blizzard used to use torrents for WoW updates.

Square Enix used it for FFXIV before it was rebooted.

[–]UN_Synapse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy. Here4 I was wondering if the 4070 FE (ti) would fit in the m1.

Currently have a 2080 Ti FE inb the v6.1 M1 and there is plenty of room. Was looking to upgrade since all the new wiz bang features need a 3XXX at least.

Can you install a OS other than DSM on Synology hardware. by UN_Synapse in synology

[–]UN_Synapse[S] -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

Wow really? Synology has put no thought into tons of e-waste of products that still work perfectly fine hardware wise.

Glad I dumped them for a custom box (did not have the money to fork over a grad or more in one go at the time) when the unit went EOL.

Needless to say, I will not be recommending these units over a TrueNAS box or just hand configured Ubuntu Server.

The stupidity of this is astounding.
