Ha. Me too! It wasn’t until I saw the bit about “his new album” that I realized something was wrong. But it took a while. I first assumed that there was a typo that cut out the artist’s name.

Oh that’s a good call! I’ll take a look. Thanks.

I hadn’t considered checking out the communities for some of the widely used homelab applications like Proxmox. That’s a great idea, thanks.

I kind of miss the message board era of the internet. Those niche communities could be really useful.

I’m still using public trackers. Maybe after I get my network setup I’ll invest some time into finding a good private tracker or two to join.

YouTube has been useful. Mostly as a way to filter out unreliable info. I’ve had best luck with creators who have actually written out a guide and are then making a video companion for it. Anyone who goes through the trouble to do both tends to be serious about what they are talking about.

But it’s not a great way to ask questions and get answers. Hmmm, I say that, but to be honest I haven’t checked the comments on those videos. Maybe it is a good way to have a dialogue and I just haven’t seen it

I agree with you there. It seems like communities need a certain mass to feel right and above or below that it’s time to split or consolidate.

I can imagine the mods making a rule like #3 to help avoid taking traffic from the hardware-specific communities.

Such a good game! It did not have to have all the extra features it does to be worth the purchase, but they loaded this game with fun!

I’m not sure about this. The only way I can make my lips touch when saying that number is if I actually say pour.

I’m a big fan of my Synology NAS. It solved the problem I needed it to solve quickly and securely. And now that I have a solid backup system in place, I’ve been building out my own locally hosted services in my own time, stress free. It’s a good safety net that way.
