Check out Spaceinvader One on YT, he alone is all you need when it comes to everything and anything unraid.

Its all consumer hardware but it’s a dedicated box running unraid.

• I3 12100
• 16GB DDR4 ram
• LSI raid card
• Case that allows for lots of 3.5inch drives

Ita easy to do in unraid, you set it up per share, so say you have a “media” share you can change the settings to include a cache drive and then set it to write to the cache drive first and then more to array. If you don’t have a cache drive or want to add a other you can do that by installing the ssd, booting up, stopping the array and adding in a new cache drive (you can add it to your existing cache pool to increase its size or create a new one and keep them separate for separate uses)

I use unraid with 5x8TB drives, 1tb ssd as a cache drive for new transfers (writing to an ssd is faster, it then moves to the array after) 500GB NVME drive for appdata and applications and a 250GB ssd for VMs and ISOs

No that’s the SL2, I’ve had this open to reapply the thermal paste its held down with 4 screws and magnets.

I had the Pixel 5 with GOS, and the camera on that was awful, the google camera app did all the heavy lifting to make it good. I now have the Pixel 8 with GOS and the camera quality of the grapheme camera app vs the google camera is much closer, but the google camera app is better. I use it with all permissions removed apart from storage.

Depends on the model, this can be opened up and lightly serviced, the CPU and ram are all soldered, but it can be dismantled and the ssd and battery can be replaced.

I got this for image editing on the go, so Lightroom and Photoshop are a must.

This is the SL3. So I can upgrade the SSD and if I absolutely need to. The battery.

I’ve had my ultrawide for about 4 years and games that support it look amazing, not had an issue. Games that don’t. I just play in 16:9, the black bars arnt much of an issue given that its no real loss as the alternative is either a stretched out image or use a 16:9 monitor.

Always take precautions, there are no waters that are truly safe for a pirate.

You would only likely get caught if you either do something stupid or someone tells Microsoft or Adobe with evidence, even then, the process to grass on them is a ballache, so if someone does actually take the time to do it, then you must have pissed them off so bad you might deserve it.

Why not use FOSS alternatives, or at least say you do?

If your stealing assets and IP, its just a matter of when you get caught, not if.

Nope, I never use contactless payments, or even google wallet so I don’t even notice its gone.

I lost a couple of AI features, but I’m not that bothered about AI wallpaper generation, it was a bit of a gimmic anyway.

I had GrapheneOS on my Pixel 5 too and that saw a good battery life improvement once I finally installed GOS.

I have a Pixel 8 with GrapheneOS. No complains from me, battery lasts a couple of days. Phone does what it needs. Camera is amazing for a point and shoot.

Would recommend.

I’ve never bothered with alternative launchers, I tired one once and it drained my battery so quick I removed it.

What graphics card are you going for? I’m in the process of specing out my next PC but the graphics card is causing me a headache

Just get an IPS with as high of a refresh rate as you can.

I went from a 24" 1080p display to a 32" 1440p ultrawide and quickly discovered that my aging PC can’t do 1440p on anything other than low in most games. Something to keep in mind.

I have a flat panel ultrawide, for me, curved was a pain in the ass when your dealing with straight lines, you need to be in the hot spot where the viewing angle is perfect. Excel can be a headache with a curved monitor, as can photo and video editing as things can look warped and shit when your not sat in the ideal position.

Just checked out the Gamers Nexus video on the Thermalright Peerless Assassin, half the price and potentially better performance. This is very interesting. Thank you.

corrected, I did Kean B650.

I’ll check out the 6700/6750, thanks.
