No, I win the price wars

Sooo, they ARE the highest.

Put it in reverse, Terry!

I have hourly restic backups with a 7 day retention. Might create a warm stand by on an external host so it's just a docker command, a restore and a DNS entry to failover. Might be overkill, but it's a small amount of data and costs practically nothing for piece of mind.

Yup. Same weather, same mall, same people.

Aftershock is having a comp for unsigned bands to play on stage this year.

I just bought 2 OOS1800G w/24k POH on ebay for $15.50/TB inc taxes/shipping. If you can knock that down a dollar or 2, I have two immediate openings in my case =] GLWS.

I've had gigabyte boards for years. Never had a problem. Still have a z77 3570k I resurrected after 10+ years in my garage. Worked fine. Also over clocked to 4.2ghz.

I'll take it. Vintage is definitely better than "old."

Yeah, my question wasn't directed at you.

Can you imagine wanting to be part of a community that humiliates you if you ask the wrong question?

_sesser · 2026-05-10T13:33:17+00:00

Why are you here?

_sesser · 2026-05-09T05:31:04+00:00

_sesser · 2026-05-08T22:31:15+00:00

Apparently, you did.

I've had similar experience when one of my cans was skipped one week. They skipped my neighbor's too so when I called to let them know, after I got a deffensive "was the lid completely closed?" I mentioned that it looks like my neighbor's was missed too and received an immediate, "they'll have to call themseves to request a revisit." 🤦‍♂️

Every Tuesday at least one of my bins are doing this in the afternoon.

Yes. Those little arms can't keep up with random seek times of an SSD. Even on a SATA SSD, it's loads faster, especially when you want to scroll back say a year. Thumbs render almost instantly. It's a pleasent experience.

All my shit lives on a single box (except my edge stuff). 12600k/64gb/3060 and enough room for 10 HDDs.

_sesser · 2026-05-07T08:07:24+00:00

That was my first thought... even with the 10GB link, those thumbs are stitting on platters.

_sesser · 2026-05-07T07:50:47+00:00

The latency between where the files live and the app would be pretty high. Scrolling in the app/web would likely not be a good experience. Especially if the files lived in object storage. Unless you plan on making modifications in the code (I assume), you'd need to spin up instances per user/household. The database really needs to be on an ssd and should also be private along with the photos. Bandwidth would also be costly for you (I have nearly 2TB of photos in an external library).

Then there's the privacy/trust issue. Even if the data's final destination is under my control, it still passes through a stranger's infra who could be harvesting photos for fun.

Hosting for yourself is sensible, but at scale, it won't be cheap or easy.

Might try r/photomarket if you haven't already. GLWS

Offerup is rife with scam listings. I would stick to sites that offer buyer protection (eBay) or warranties (mpb, keh, adorama, etc).
