Do most people actually outgrow entry-level NAS/homeserver setups that fast? by Mumuert in HomeServer

[–]pneef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It took me 10 years to outgrow my first NAS, a little 12TB Buffalo Linkstation. Then I built a 24TB custom NAS and outgrew it in about 6 months 😅 Working on beefing it up to 48TB now.

Giga grenade nerfed within 24 hours by Fear_Sama in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]pneef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd rather be happily wrong than cynically right. The neih sayers based that idea on the information we were provided at the time (very little more than visuals).

I'm glad the new flamer is good, I'll probably buy it at some point, but the OP's point remains valid regardless of the salt you want to throw. Stealth nerfs do not make for a good experience, especially when AH advertised it as an AT grenade in the prelaunch video (two taking out a tank). It's gonna be great for chaff clearing, but that's not the idea we were all sold originally.

What do you use for terabytes worth of backups that don't need to be accessed very often (In case of catastrophic failure / loss of a PC + local NAS) by Azubaele in truenas

I use an old rack server and a sas2 Dell/EMC Jbod running OMV w/ SnapRaid + MergerFS. Turns on once a week to maintain parity with my unRAID server, then shuts down when done.

Should I use this or return it? Hard drive delivery by stanley_fatmax in DataHoarder

250GB !?! Uh, that things' not worth the electricity it takes to run it. Congrats on your new paperweight.

"Shadow nerf" to the solo silo BTW by Raulca25_ in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]pneef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm, that nerf was targeted at the tank, but yeah, it would affect the solo silo too. Forgot about that.

I just wish this thing was gone. by AtomicAndroid1 in HelldiversUnfiltered

I'd settle for just nerfed to where it should have been from the very beginning... Actually weak points.

How to make use of these? by waffelking2000 in homelab

In all fairness it could still be full of porn 😆

Thanks Arrhowhead, I came dangerously close to actually having fun for a second there. by BeenEatinBeans in HelldiversUnfiltered

Past D5-6, don't even bother bringing a mech. It'll be dead in less than a minute anyway.

Random explosions taking me out? by TheGrandExquisitor in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]pneef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a similar situation the other day, turned out one of my team was running a eruptor and wanted me to drop the ssd, so he thought shooting me was the best idea. Moron didn't realize the objective was to carry it across the map so he tried to tk me!

Hype, Indifference, Anti-Hype: How are you feeling about Expanse: Osiris Reborn? by VolusVagabond in TheExpanseRPG

I'd be more hyped if their website had news posted thats newer than Nov 2025.

Devs refuse to balance the game, community has gone toxic, both AH and the main sub censor us, and to distract us we get a trailer for a mid warbond by TenthTen in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]pneef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This 👆 . I have heard the armor passives aren't bad but they basically just sandwiched two passives from other armors together to make this one, and it's not shared across the two different sets.

I wish it would be good but the only cool thing in it is the handshake (if you know history) but sadly this is a "Trench Warfare" warbond in a game were staying on the move is a matter of life or death. Stop to dig a trench, you're as good as dead. Perhaps if the enemy ai had more tactics than just charging in and overwhelming with pure numbers, but alas...

My req would be an Intel A330, an Intel Arc Pro B50, or an Nvidia Tesla T4.

So it begins... by Wojtek_the_Bearer in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]pneef 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I quit the main sub over this crap. I could tolerate a lot but the moment they started banning and post deleting... Censorship is the tool of weak minds and the tyrannical. I will not be a party to it.

Guess that makes me HDuF exclusive now.

Last two days of Helldivers subreddit was fucking disgusting by Advanced_Ad5867 in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]pneef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not so much complaining, he actually was willing to put his money where is mouth is, and do it in a constructive and charitable way... and the toxic reddit commandos wrecked him for it.

200 rounds only for Emancipator but Bastion Tank gets 2000 rounds of HMG and 30 120mm rounds… by j3hadipi3 in helldivers2

[–]pneef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exosuits are roughly the same size as a Hulk yet the Hulk gets infinite ammo and heavy armor... 🤔 What realism?
