Interesting, I haven’t had any issues with things loading with mine, maybe it’s your adlists causing issues? Try disabling some, there might be false positives in there giving you issues

If I get anymore I’m gonna need an actual server rack, I already had to get a SAS expander card.

I’m looking forward to watching Fallout season 2, I don’t wanna live through Fallout.

I was desperate for a job years ago and took a car sales job. Firstly, I felt slimy as fuck doing it and didn’t sell many cars because of it.

That said, the guy that owned the auto group owned 4 dealerships out of the 6 in town that weren’t used only car lots. Hyundai/Genesis, Honda, Nissan and Toyota/Scion. They constantly ran “sales” that only saturated the market since the town was like 200 miles from another city. Then he goes and buys the Ford/Lincoln dealership, leaving only the GM (Chevy, GMC, Buick and Cadillac) and Dodge/Chrysler ones not owned by him.

Dude was stupid rich, had literally the largest house in the city and bought a brand new C8 Corvette (when it was first released), burned through 4 sets of tires, got 3 speeding tickets then totalled it all within 2 weeks. To him it was a tax write-off. Not to mention all the other toys this guy bought and abused.

I met him once, he was a complete dick to even his store managers. Fuck that guy.

I dumped Spooterfy over a year ago now, moved all my liked song library to Tidal. I moved to AntennaPod for podcasts too. I never really make playlists, Tidals mixes are usually pretty good. The daily discovery is leagues above Spotify’s weekly shit that would constantly play songs from artists I had blocked. No Spotify, I do not want to be ear raped by 100 Gecs I told you this!

They pay artists better and it’s been a much better experience. My only issue was I couldn’t easily like songs from the notification bar, but that was added a while ago in an update. It has started playing the same songs frequently lately, but thats not the worst I guess.

Obviously if you care about supporting your artists, buy thier CDs, vinyls (if you’re into that) or buy them digitally on Bandcamp, streaming doesn’t pay as much as direct support.

This reads as an ad but I’m genuinely just a satisfied user. Fuck Spotify.

As someone else here mentioned, Pandora is still a viable option too, hell my mom uses Pandora.

Surprisingly I’m in the US and it’s off by default, at least for now. They’ll toggle it on then claim it was an accident after they make a couple billion dollars.

Mines nothing special, i5 10400 with 16GB of RAM and a 1050ti for video encoding. System runs TrueNAS Scale for Plex and Immich and has 44TB of drives running through a Dell H310 PERC SAS card. I desperately need more storage but I’ve been lacking the funds for new drives, I’d also need a 5.25" drive bay converter to hold the 2 additional drives I need in this case since all the bays are full, and another SAS card since this one’s used up.

I’d like to move to Jellyfin but from what I’ve read it doesn’t do as well for streaming from outside the network compared to Plex and half the users of my server are outside my network. So it works for now.

Also have a Raspberry Pi 5 running PiHole

Also a buddy 3D printed a fan mount for the H310 to make sure it doesnt overheat when doing file transfers and I slapped a Noctua on it

Well we almost voted Renfoe out as president during the last convention for getting a DUI while in a postal vehicle so that tells a lot

It’s the same thing, cost of living is the inflation raise. We get regular raises every 42 weeks as regular carriers but even those are menial

Yeah but 1.3% raises? In this economy? Actual joke. They spent 20 months on this contract negotiation and that’s all they give us. The AC in the trucks was already in the works with the rollout of the NGDVs and the Metris vans they’re using as holdovers so that’s almost pointless.

My coworkers have already stated their displeasure with this contract so the members might vote against it.

At first I thought you meant quitting your Amazon job, not quitting from shopping there lol

Inspirational either way

Funny thing is, I don’t own a printer, so when I need documents printed I go to the local library. Their computers run Linux, and of all the times I’ve gone to get a print done it’s been an extremely flawless experience. No fuss, no hassle, just load up the document and print it.
