I used to use syncthing few years back. I don’t remember much about it and I can’t even remember why I ditched it. It probably wasn’t any disasterous situation - I’d remember that, but there still had to be reason I did it.
What I remember I specifically used one way sync of photos. I don’t do picture editing at all and I tend to sort pictures on drive differently than one huge pile on phone, so this was what allowed me to do my shit easily.
Different people, different tastes.
Honestly I’ve never even heard of brand called Drobo.
Yeah, once you wrote this I saw a video where it’s explained Asustor is basically “unlocked” just like regular PC, unlike Synology and Qnap who are hard-set on their offerings. This is quite a big plus IMO. Some people criticize Asustor that it relies on third party solutions like Virtualbox. Not really concern to me as I’d definitely not run a whole virtualized system. And for Docker it has Portainer if I looked right? Isn’t this considered a go-to solution with self built systems running docker? How could this be bad?
Although I have to add that from what I saw both Syno and Qnap have their own systems more polished as a whole than ADM is.
Ok, thanks for reply. I’ll keep it in mind. I’m in EU, so I’ll check the M.2 situation here.
As I wrote above. It’s not about speed, it’s about price and mostly availability. When I look at 2,5" at my country’s biggest retailer, there’s not really much to chose from and the number of available offerings are more or less shrinking. That’s not really the case with M.2 which seems to be “new shit” everyone wants so there’s plenty of options. And even if I stayed with “trusty WD Red” it’d still cost less to buy M.2…
Another benefit (for me) is its form factor. I don’t have a lot of space. Classic 2-bay NAS size is “perfect” for me, apart from its bay limitation. That’s what’s so tempting on Asustor. Either Nimbustor with 4xM.2 or even Flashstor with just 6xM.2 are quite a small devices (compared to what regular 6-bay would be) which is a big plus for me.
I meant I probably should not buy 2-bay NAS with just USB2, if that still exists. There’d be not much to expand to once I put those two starting drives in. So preferably more bays/slots to put another drive there once the need arises. Or use expansion units like all of these offer (Synology is eSATA I believe, others have USB).
Thank you for suggestion. I stumbled upon this brand last week, it looks promising. Sadly they don’t have presence in my country. Sure there’s ebay, international sellers and possibly other ways, but I don’t want to buy such a thing with non-local warranty.
Thanks for the reply. For now, I only intend to stream music if anything at all.
And as for the services, the main gripe now is adblock, honestly. There’s also cheap N100 mini pc burried in my drawer that I intended to run Proxmox on and play with it. But that’s reserved for “when I have time” winter evenings or so.
I don’t need it. But since I can’t use spinning drives due to noise reasons, there are only SATA SSD and M.2 SSD options. And while SATA speed is definitely enough for me, M.2 drives are actually cheaper for whatever reason. That way I could even go with things like Flashstor that only has M.2 slots.
What’s wrong with it?
I have two problems with this.
Soldering should be fine, this will probably end up as long winter evening project at some point. Was it possible to re-use gliders after dismembering the mouse?
Swelling problem won’t be fixed as easy. The material of the wheel just expanded, the rubber is twice as big as new one to the point it can’t fit in its hole in the mouse. Internet is full of the same problems, it was either defective batch or it reacts with some specific agent in some people’s sweat. Never the less, the only way is to replace the whole wheel. Need to find out which of my friends have a 3D printer…
I can’t think of how p2p messengers even could have webapp.
Well, currently I use Tumbleweed with just couple of tweaks, but I can’t live without things like Yakuake, fish, yt-dlp and bunch of other console commands that are not present in most dostros’ defaults. How does atomic distribution handle this? I believe flatpak only has gui applications…
// I just diacovered Yakuake is there, but I can’t imagine how does this specific program integrate with system?
Try Eastshade, should check all the boxes IMO. https://store.steampowered.com/app/715560/Eastshade/
Any game from Amanita Design might fit the bill too (Machinarium, Botanicula, etc.).
If you don’t mind reading a lot, there’s Roadwarden https://store.steampowered.com/app/1155970/Roadwarden/
Slavery is ok, because negroes are not people.
Holocaust is cool, because Jews are not people.
Killing children is fine, because Ukrainians* are not people.

Well, technically yes, but why pay even a couple quids when I already have purchased the game on PC? Of course there’s this “To support the dev!” but honestly… How much he’s going to make from such a purchase after all?
This is why I find Steam Deck the most tempting handheld console, because it can play (almost) all the games I’ve purchased over last decade on both Steam and GOG. I’m no Nintendo fanboy so I can happily live without Mario or Zelda.
Exactly. Not only the games are still (even after many years) very expensive with not that much “steam sale” level of discounts or various humble/fanatical bundles, it’s Nintendo’s behavior that is the most off putting part in the equation.
Ha, I have no friends so couch co-op is out of the question… /s
