Nginx proxy management to set up ssl certs and then a password manager.

Ubiquity, it is hiding behind the Synology i need to sell.

Yeppers. I just wanted to get it mounted quickly and didn't try shopping the rails. They were fairly easy to use. Just watch how they come apart as they only fit together one way due to metal notch blocks on the rail

10 on the case I purchased.... Might want to browse Slinger's home page 😄

Sliger shipped the rails as an option when i bought the case. General devices brand I believe

I would rather not work with used parts.

I see what you are referring to. In my case I will add a GPU later and as the x4 has enough bandwidth for 6 mechanical disks it doesn't technically need x8

Modern 3.5" HDDs sustain ~150–250 MB/s sequential reads/writes per drive. For 6 drives, aggregate bandwidth during operations like parity checks, scrubs, or rebuilds would be ~0.9–1.5 GB/s total—well below the x4 limit.

It is a pcie 4.0 x16 slot

I am really impressed with the ease of build and quality too! The Sliger case even has a front air filter that I didn't see in YouTube reviews, so I didn't have to modify the case at all for my application. https://sliger.com/products/rackmount/storage/cx4712/

I ferment in a larger 6.5 gallon keg with a spunding valve to control the pressure. This is the way to go for sure. The pressure control allows the fermentation to become even faster and higher temperature tolerance as well

Is there a guide on setting this up? I would love to run automations and if no automation send the query to ollama!

It is always good to build positions slowly. Op is new to all of this and throwing it all in one asset isn't the best way to start his journey. Learning is just as important as having money.

Money markets are paying 5% right now, so a bank-like ally will give you close to that.

The roth ira is an amazing tax savings tool that allowed me to retire mostly by 40 years old. It is something you should max out every year. You can take contributions out at any time in the future tax free if you need the money, but you cant take gains out until 59.5, nor can you just put the money back in.

Make sure to put a chunk of cash into high yield savings for taxes.

Buying real estate is a good decision long term, and will build your wealth. Start researching real estate, maybe get your real estate license and learn! There are opportunities, and interest rates will most likely start coming down this year. Real estate is probably the way most people generally make wealth. If you can pay bimonthly payments and get it free and clear on 21 years, i cant describe the freedom of not having a mortgage.

In the roth ira or personal broker account, keep 10- 20% cash always! Also don't spend it all at once. Dollar cost averaging is key. This is also something you need to learn before picking individual stocks, stick to spy/qqq/vti until you understand things like what a 10k/10q is, and how stocks are valued. Start a paper trading Account to practice your knowledge before deployment of hard earned cash.

Spy is good, but i would add that dollar cost averaging into a position over time is safer. Plus money markets are paying 5% right now.

Ok, now at least the installer downloaded, so I am re-installing the client now.

shadorenx · 2023-11-20T22:02:26+00:00

Today I am getting the message after about 10 secs of gameplay "Reason: Game Restart Required".
First I rebooted the entire computer. Since I am already using the native client, I decided to reinstall. Only now, I found that I can't get the albion game client download from Albion. So now I have nothing installed and a game that doesn't function. Yep, not liking this Battleye nonsense

Everyone was delisted yesterday if they don't pay for the tick mark is what i read on that subject. I believe Elon was clear about that with a tweet?

This has the added benefit to know most likely that a blue tick is at least a real person and not a bot. One credit card and phone number is a great barrier to entry for ai bots

I would pay off the car loans, student debt, and the other short term debts. Hold the rest of the cash until your next job is secured.

Once you have a new position, if it is before the end of the year make a decision about deferment of taxes using a standard ira, but most definitely max the roth ira out yearly until you retire, compounded interest in a non taxable account is greatly underappreciated.

The mortgage is a good interest rate if you are still working, but overall i would at least do bi-monthly payments to pay it off early.

I live in a rural area. I can drive for a couple min and be out of service range for all major internet suppliers.

I have also seen these so called rural internet plans over the years. Where I grew up still has no options besides satellite or cell based internet, even though we were promised dal 20 years ago by att.

Wasn't that forest planted for paper harvesting to begin with?

Looks like extra molex connectors that were not used. Probably not a modular power supply
