Rolivers

I’ve made a decent NAS out of a Raspberry Pi 4. It used USB to SATA converters and old hard drives.

My setup has one 3Tb drive and two 1.5Tb drives. The 1.5Tb drives form a 3Tb drive using RAID and then combines with the 3Tb drive to make redundant storage.

Yes it’s inefficient AF but it’s good enough for full HD streaming so good enough for me.

I’m too stingy to buy better drives.

This is something straight out of Warhammer 40000.

It’s much easier to install Linux these days than it is to install Windows. And with KDE Plasma the user experience is really similar. As for the distribution I would suggest OpenSuse as that has very little requirement for terminal commands, they’ve packaged GUI elements in the whole distro.

As for Tumbleweed vs regular, that’s up to you. I’m happy with Tumbleweed.

Howtobasic is that you?

Yeah idk. I don’t want to support this but I also don’t want to spend anymore than the minimum on streaming. I plan to unsubscribe after finishing Andor anyway.

I paid for the ad tier of disneyplus and use an adblocker. Seems to work well so far.

Well it was my 4th LG G4. Four times a charm I guess.

Sounds like a horrible idea if not carefully controlled. Perhaps up to 80 degrees in an oil bath could redissolve some of the electrolytes. I guess it could work. Anything above 100 is asking for trouble.

For me that was not so long ago. I still used an LG G4 as permanent car navigation until a year ago or so. I’m still surprised that one didn’t end up bootlooping.

Popup #10000: Have you tried feature X that nobody asked for yet?

I’m just glad that howtobasic isn’t American.
