  • Culturally high school is like this wonderful time of freedom before working age begins.

    A lot of these high school shows were watched by me as a high school kid. And living my shit life, they taught me emotional and social things I wasn’t gonna learn otherwise. And I finished shows back then knowing even at 18 or 19 they would be obsolete and childish in my life. I was wrong, but I did grow out of anime by about age 22.

    But as an adult now? Please make some adult shows. Some of the most intellectually challenging and creative works are centered around 16 year olds. UGH.









  • Set up your existing PCs as a NAS or SAN with probably unraid. I really like that you wanna use a small PC to do the work. Big, heavy server PCs are not that fun. I assume you have a server rack set up for this 40tb synology? If you’re really already so gungho about this storage be looking for a 2U used server on ebay to fill your next spot. Not a 3 or 4U. Go smaller than you might need. Yeah, there is a lot of hardware out there - remember that software is there to solve the problems.





  • Could you buy a used corporate SFF off of ebay instead of building a new rig? Maybe an optiplex, Dell 12-core, Thinkcenter, or some sort of multi-core mini micro? You could even buy 4-cores but cluster 3 of them together to make 12. That’s Docker’s best use case, mobilizing your VMs across a cluster of machines. I’m not sure what you need but this is a lot of power and cost. You could start really really small with an Unraid and Plex server to dip your toes in, and then you’d have an idea about hardware and expanding your power incrimentally.
