| floridagram-bot1 | <govatent> So I have about 500 bucks I've been saving up with credit card rewards. I was gonna buy a qnap or synology. But I decided instead of spending half of that on just an under powered nas, I have a spare hp business machine I can turn into a freenas. My question, freenas or Ubuntu with one cloud? Or some other solution. If I go free nas I'll get a nice 8 port sata card and will start with 3 4tb drives with zfs | 02:06 |
|---|---|---|
| floridagram-bot1 | <KMyers> I am currently running Debian on a home NAS. I sync it with my Next cloud server | 02:38 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <AdamOutler> You could do a 4TB RAID1+0 with a nice machine for that price. | 03:16 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <RazPi> I'm having the worst time deciding on a laptop. I'm still down to Zephyrus and Razer Blade 14 (2017). Zephyrus has 1070 nvidia and quiet.. Razer is actually pretty linux compatible, great build quality, but sounds like a jet engine | 03:17 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <RazPi> Noise is big for me, and I'd like to replace my desktop with a laptop and play some games | 03:18 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <KMyers> It is funny as Hector is in the same boat | 03:18 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <RazPi> but if I were to travel, I need battery | 03:18 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <RazPi> What laptops is he looking at? | 03:18 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <govatent> I think system 76 has a gaming laptop too. Kind of | 12:10 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <ahoneybun> We have laptops with Nvidia | 12:44 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <ahoneybun> Like the Oryx Pro | 12:44 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <RazPi> Razer has reached out to the community to make their laptops work well with Linux | 13:39 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <RazPi> https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.digitaltrends.com/computing/razer-blade-laptop-getting-linux-support/amp/ | 13:40 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <KMyers> @RazPi, I like when companies do this | 13:41 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <RazPi> I like the build style of the Razer, I'd be lying if I said that it didn't appeal to me as a Mac alternative with the machined aluminum envy | 13:42 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <RazPi> The fan noise is the only reason I haven't been won totally over but I'm wondering if it's not do big an issue in the 2017 model | 13:43 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <RazPi> The only thing my think pad is missing is a gpu | 13:43 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <govatent> @KMyers how do you have the home nas setup? Any neat software configuration? | 14:41 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <KMyers> @govatent, Honestly it is just a Debian box, nothing special aside from 8 TB of hotswap disk space. It was a machine I bought off of @RazPi . It has 4 bays. I just mount my home directory on other machines. The home directory is synced with my next cloud which is in a colo in Lenior, North Carolina | 14:45 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <govatent> Coolio. That's likely the route I'm gonna go for local storage. What type of storage controller are you using? On board? | 14:46 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <KMyers> The only special thing I have setup there is that I have a persistent VPN tunnel between the NAS and my private VPN to allow me to access everything remotely if needed | 14:46 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <AdamOutler> How does your own cloud deal with 0-length files? | 14:46 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <AdamOutler> Mine is in my documents folder. Whenever a lock file is created, it continuously syncs the file and fails. | 14:47 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <KMyers> @govatent, Yes, I am not a huge fan of hardware raid cards. They are a bit of a mess | 14:47 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <KMyers> @AdamOutler, It does not, those files fail. In their defense, the same thing happens with OneDrive and a few other cloud storage solutions | 14:48 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <AdamOutler> My own cloud client freaks out and repeatedly tries to sync | 14:48 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <ahoneybun> damnnnn | 18:12 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <AdamOutler> This is going to be a good month! | 18:46 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <AdamOutler> Stop using all of Miami's internets, @KMyers ! | 18:47 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <Ivoriesablaze> i'm starting to feel a bit like a stranger here | 20:24 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <ahoneybun> Why? | 20:27 |
| floridagram-bot1 | ahoneybun was removed by: ahoneybun | 20:27 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <Ivoriesablaze> bc i'm never really here anymore... did aaron just leave the group? | 20:28 |
| floridagram-bot1 | ahoneybun was added by: ahoneybun | 20:29 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <ahoneybun> well I can leave lol | 20:29 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <SivaMachina> @Ivoriesablaze, How do you think I feel. Kinda feel like a stranger a lot of the time. | 21:26 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <KMyers> @Ivoriesablaze, Nah, your not | 21:27 |
