Just wanna throw in a voice saying your setup sounds completely fine to me. Maybe it’s a bit odd but it also sounds like how I’d do it if I had storage needs that large.
My current storage needs are currently met with a 2.5" SSD connected to a raspberry pi shared with samba over WiFi though so I’m pretty sure every storage nerd in here is gonna tell me my opinion doesn’t count, take it with a grain of salt.
Well they still have a finite life and are less replaceable than a battery. Even if it quadrupled the lifespan (which is a reasonably generous estimate given OP’s 4-year duration and wikipedia telling me supercapacitors last 10-15 years), it would still eventually need to be replaced and that would generally require resoldering it.
I think a much better solution is 2 battery slots, one to be a backup battery, unused, and then when needed, an LED on the mobo can be turned on. Honestly OP could jury-rig up a similar system if he wanted to, although it’d be a bit ugly and anytime something is jury-rigged I don’t really think of it as reliable.
The only real solution is to make this an extended maintenance task. The batteries are cheap so an alert every 4 years is likely sufficient to replace the battery before it dies. You could do it every 2 or 3 years instead at your discretion.
That… Was what you asked for. Things you hadn’t heard of. Now you’re in the lucky 10,000.
I regularly send emails to spam that say something along the lines of “Hey, you have free dominos” because I could redeem 20 points for a free ranch dressing. I also get emails about whatever deal they decide to have that week.
I can’t fix that cause I need 60 for the pizza, the 20 is gonna sit idle.
Also while I’m bringing it up, 20 for a sauce? Hell no. 10 would be too high.
But yeah, they’re annoying, but within reason for a rewards program, I do get something from this.
Dunno enough about ipv6, wouldn’t my ISP still need to allow it?
That’s my understanding, and there’s no option in their locked-up router to enable it, for ipv6 either.
I used a pi 3 to host a Foundry server (TTRPG software).
I use Docker to simplify things, since I run two instances of it. Simple port forwarding setup within the docker container. the main reason I used a pi instead of my computer is so my players could access their dnd stuff all the time.
I stopped because I switched ISPs and they won’t let me port-forward. My vpn supports it but the latency isn’t ideal. I host the same thing through a cheap server now.
I got hope cause it’s still tentative, yeah. Just disappointed that their leadership felt this was worth bringing back. It should’ve been rejected, it’s full of compromise that is bearable, maybe, but this is the best time for a strike to threaten a better deal.
Part time is most of UPS.
What they really want is more full-time jobs, anyway, but this contract brought hardly any of those to the workers, too.
It’s a cop-out to say part-time isn’t a living wage when part-time is has become just a corporate loophole to justify no full-time benefits, and besides, it’s an hourly wage. Part time should be the same as full time. Full time should make more money by working more hours, not by having a higher wage, especially when part timers can’t go full time if they wanna.
Also if you read the summary text at least, the main vote for this hasn’t happened yet, this is still the proposed contract. The big complaint here is it’s felt those top people are sellouts and won’t come back with something better.
I haven’t used raidz but a quick search tells me it supports single-drive expansion.
Maybe reconfigure your raidz as a 2-drive system, then copy over all your data into it, and expand it back into a 3-drive system after.
