  • Good thing about the setup and self updating router is you should have a VPN/(head/tail)scale connection enabled to it so you can still use the smart plug (plugged into the UPS) or send the WoL packet. Or PiKVM. Or if your breaker box is outside ask your neighbor to flip some switches until it comes back to life and come back to an online server and a fridge full of spoiled food.





  • Fasting and starving yourself aren’t the same. Starving is either being out of food without fat reserves or eating too little each day so your body never switches over to burning fat stores. Fasting is overall pretty safe and becoming better studied recently.

    I’ve been fasting every other day since October and used it to lose 50 LBS. I’ve felt pretty great the whole time and eat high protein/take a multivitamin on eating days to make sure I don’t run into any issues. Occasionally I drink electrolytes on fasting days if I’m being active. Many also do time restricted eating without issues

    Fellow humans should I finish the bird muscle with a saccharine concoction, an overfermented grape extract concoction, or a ground plant concoction from the geographic region of Carolina? I know us fellow humans frequently debate the proper and just pairing of concoction and flesh.



  • Sounds like it’s time to get a NAS and make a RAID array. Btrfs, mergerfs, Synology’s SHR, TrueNAS’s multi drive size solution, and probably some other options I’m forgetting can accomplish RAID 1 across different drive sizes. Then your files are duplicated to other HDDs in case one fails. Then you can back up to Backblaze B2 to make sure you your data’s backed up off site.

    You can do a mixed drive raid solution on Windows with Windows Storage Spaces and backup to Backblaze computer backup for pretty cheap.

    This is the upgrade I’ve been planning going from a 2 bay to 8 bay NAS. My wallet is not very happy with me… But the homelab must grow.






  • The framework 13 is around a grand pre built and around 900 if you have a spare SSD and SODIMM modules laying around.

    I feel like an i3 or Celeron is not really a fair comparison. The framework machines are quite powerful and they’re targeting the prosumer/workstation market.

    In the case of sustainability you do not have to trash the parts on upgrade. Framework sells cases to repurpose the main board as a PC/server. You could also buy a shell and create a second laptop. When it comes to throwing out parts on repair or upgrade you are throwing out less overall.

    It’s also a fairly new company so between that and the market they’re targeting the products are fairly expensive. Further down the line they could become much more affordable as the company scales. But yeah it does not sound like Framework laptops are a good fit for you right now.
