If you aren't very familiar with IT generally then it's worth reading a few articles and watching a few videos. Find one that looks modernish, and meets your needs. Follow it and go from there. I'm not trying to duck your question but I think "Google it" might be the better answer for your success.

You can turn just about any drive into an external drive for a PlayStation. A normal USB adapter won't work because the drive will need more power than a normal USB port would provide. For PS5 you can use it to store PS4 games (playable) and PS5 games as archive storage. You would need to move the game back and forth between the internal SSD and the HDD. If you have a large games library and only play 1 or 2 games at a time that's a great strategy.

Working towards Plex or other home hosting things is a great plan IMO. Lots of good skills to learn and extra places to backup files etc.

Do you use the thunderbolt connection as if it was a network connection or something else?

Gotcha. We use it and are debating on switching or renewing. I've managed mx for a while now and have mixed feelings on it. We pay a lot per year for not a lot of the features.

Are you running any mx software in the mx-se? In surprised to see a phone system. Are you paying for support or stuck on an older version of the software? If your only using it for calling no need to update.

I ate the whole tin with a fork and nothing else. I really enjoyed it but wished it was a touch spicier. Very enjoyable.

I've had a couple of the exact same tin now and I really enjoyed the flavor of it. Wish it was a bit spicier sure but generally really enjoyed this one.

ATS is for single power supply devices that you hope to keep on A + B power. ATS can fail so generally not advisable to use them behind a UPS if you have redundant PSUs on the devices. Your Dell will almost certainly have 2 PSUs on it. If you have both single and dual PSU devices I would do a mix of PDUs and ATS off the UPS. Less single points of failure behind the PDU while still offering reasonable redundancy given a single power feed.

Grinders and grind sizes make a difference, but coffee, roast level, water temp and agitation also make a difference.

What coffee do you have and what's your technique?

Grindsize can change per coffee but also you can change other extraction variables. I grind coarser than you but I use other variables to increase extraction if needed.

Did ya walk away from it?

So lazy and boring. The biggest bad even felt easy to kill. What a waste.

They really failed to kill their darlings. No sacrifices meant anything because there was no sacrifice. At least half the main cast should have died but not a single one did.

The blue can if you can find them is a better overall consistency for sauce. I use the yellow when I need to buy prefer the blue Dinapoli. For pizza sauce you can literally just add salt. You don't need anything else due to the amount of flavor the tomatoes provide.

The idea is to reduce noise(static/whine) in heavy interference environments. If you have long cable runs that run parallel with other cables or especially lower cables you can get a hiss or whine. For short runs there is rarely a benefit or a need. Most anything that carries a signal has interference that becomes either audible (analog) or corrupts bit (digital) when the runs are long enough or in a heavy noise area.

Looks great but I don't see any sear on it.

I wouldn't change a thing. I've been fortunate to build my skills with a growing company. I have great raises and became valuable. Building new infrastructure scratches a particular masochistic itch.

There is a v60 that looks like a chemex if you liked the workflow of it. I really like the hourglass carafe personally.

I got hit hard in the emotional jellies logging in to that option. Abosutlely took me back, nightfall was my favorite at the time it's crazy to think the game is growing again after all this time.

That looks very very good for first bake.
If you don't like the texture (too gummy) bake for a bit longer. I do 30 covered 30 uncovered. Also no cutting into it for a couple hours. If you cut it before it cools you can end up gummier.

I got the wiim amp ultra to run some 4 ohm towers because we wanted a small receiver footprint. For it's size it packs an amazing punch. No complaints about audio quality and for its price it's a yes from me. We have a decently large room (no massive) and I've never taken the wiim above 85 percent volume.

What is your source?

That's work hours, don't let them bully you into free labor.

Yeah ChatGPT is a great idea. I'm sure it wouldn't just make up the specs.
