There are a number of cities that have paid to bus their homeless population somewhere else. It’s despicable.

Remember the porn networks that tried to get you to download their software to connect, and then it ended up being a dialer to a 900 number?

I guess you’re too young to remember the good old days of dogpile searching on four engines within one page.

It’s a low friction way to set up a home server with NAS and docker containers. The “Unraid” portion is the configuration that lets you set up an “array” with parity drive(s), but without striping so each disk has a complete filesystem and files accessible even when removed from the array. Everything can be managed through a web UI, and there’s a robust “app store” of docker containers.

The downside is that it’s not free, and they recently moved towards monthly/yearly licensing and increased the cost of new lifetime licenses.

My basement is already half full of my inlaw’s crap.

I ended up taking my unsupported computer and turned it into an Unraid server. Bought some refurb enterprise drives on eBay to get it set up, and now I have an awesome home media server/NAS.

One could argue they still haven’t

It looks like the media player is open source, but the media server is not.

I also bought the lifetime license a while ago, and am also happy with that purchase.

If the door exists, then it can be opened

And then it gets blamed every time something doesn’t work right with the internet
