This is a good way to do it.

I went one smaller with the Node 304 which only can do 4 HDDs with a GPU inserted. Going used for consumer desktop CPU is the most powerful play for the money I think.

This is a good path forward OP for a pretty powerful server

• Node 804
• Used AM4 motherboard ( microatx B550) (can be around 150€)
• used 5700X or similar (seen as low as 100€)
• new 500W power supply
• 32GB DDR4 3200 ram in 16GB sticks
• WD red plus 10TB helium filled for balance of noise and performance and price. My 10TB drives are as quiet as my 4TB. My scheme is ZFS mirror of 4TB (2 drives) for important docs, and 10TB drives for non critical data. Drives are by far the most expensive unless you get good second hand drives
• if you want to do Jellyfin media server, pick up an arc A310

All of their changes will be merged to freecad 1.0 apparently outside of a few UI changes that will be add-in options.

Well being able to figure out 1 complex math solution per day vs 1 complex solution per 1.5 days for the person who just has to work on the problem for longer is balloons a lot over the long term.

Like how the average calorie burning difference between people is only 400 per day out of ~2000, but over a month that is like 1.5kg difference of mass burned which is 18kg per year.

But I don’t know if I am interpreting the result you said correctly.

I want a new, modern Battle for Middle Earth 2 with better balance, modern graphics, and maybe different modes like quick vs longer form games. Definitely some reform like making it more difficult to build walls, but the walls stand up better to infantry and you really need siege engines.

The game was not balanced competitively (men so OP) but holy damn the battles felt epic and building your own forts and castles to defend was amazing.

Also, I am confused at why nextcloud is at the intersection of networking, music, and multimedia.

Yes it technically has a video viewer and music player, but I would be very surprised if any person in the world right now is genuinely using it to post that content to the fediverse social-network style.

You said it right there in your comment.

Sleep mode, (and other effectively off modes) where it is functionally useless, it can do.

MSP430 can do 140uA/MHz. That is ~7 times the power that this application supplies, and that is not counting any single other chip quiescent current or chip that actively provides useful data. You would have to have a battery anyway or a big cap to provide the needed current for on-states. Or you could run it extremely low frequencies like you said, but those tend to not scale linearly at all with per MHz power ratings. Quiescent currents tend to catch up fast at that scale. I would be extremely doubtful that 150kHz would scale perfectly and wouldn’t have already exponentially decayed to around its lowest possible on-state consumption for the chip. I would definitely have to see tests on that.

The smallest of batteries like the VARTA tiny cells in TWS’s are infinitely more useful and practical and it would take this application months to fill a single cell, discounting all losses.

It is the Mac of network hardware in my corporate - entered experience.

It is aesthetic hardware, marketing, and everything software related looks polished on the surface, but is buggy (particularly their access which is the worst thing to be buggy) with the least possible configurability, completely obscured debugging resources, and proprietary ways to make you reliant on their support services.

That being said, I am still using them because I got a 30€ UAP-AC-SHD from my company’s old stock when we switched to Cisco hardware. And their cloud gateway ultra is a good value. My whole house setup with prosumer hardware will be 140€ and where my internet comes in is the worst place in the house to put a wireless router.

I don’t think people realize how extremely little 50uW is.

For a standard 3.3V microcontroller assuming a 95% efficient voltage regulator will be a current of 14.4uA. Just having the HSI master clock enabled on one of the low power STML0 chips is 15uA. This will literally only the clock. That is 0 sensors, 0 communication, 0 IO, nothing useful at all. For reference, reading SPO2 with a very efficient maxm86161 takes 10uA by itself in ultra low power mode with low accuracy and not counting the max leakage current of 1uA. For full operation, you need about 1000x-10000x that amount for short bursts.

“Oh but it can cHaRgE tHe BaTtErY”

Let’s say the device has a standard 100mAh battery (apple watch had a 228mAh or more). At 100% efficiency with absolutely not one millijoule being used by any other electronics (which would never ever happen, it would at the very least need a boost converter), it would take around 277 days to charge up that tiny tiny battery.

Let’s take another example of an even smaller battery. To charge one side of the airpods 3rd gen (0.133Wh battery), it would take 110 days per ear

This is one of those free “energy harvesting” fad BS based in nothing but wishing and marketing. It is an interesting learning project for wireless antenna beginners, but that is the extent.

Is the new shotgun any good?

Ease of electronics.

It is more expensive and bulkier using those cells because you need boost converters instead of dirt cheap linear regulators to put a modern 3.3V MCU in there. With how cheap lithium cells are (and that they are rechargeable) nowadays, the power converters + the mechanical AAA housing is often more expensive than a lithium cell + charger

Hopefully we will switch over to sodium ion in the coming 5 years or so which are rechargeable, cheaper materials, higher charge cycle counts, and completely safe at the cost of also needing a boost converter. Maybe we will even start to shift more towards 1.8V MCUs. Sodium ion is better in nearly every way than alkaline while just having bad capacity compared to Li-ion.

This seems like classic corporate backtracking when their customers spot a terrible, deliberate decision.

That being said, I am happy about it. I got my company to use it and finally got my girlfriend to use it and just recommended it to her brother. Would hate to have to try to find something else

Really? My girlfriend’s A52 doesn’t have this feature. That is part of why I bought my Xperia 5ii. Is it a new feature?

(After 3 years the battery is at 70% on mine because apparently Sony uses shitty as hell batteries and software drain glitches, while my girlfriend’s A52 always charging to 100% lasts a day and a half with 3x the use, would not recommend)

That is a different usecase though. That is simply syncing local musical with a server.

I do that too because i have an SD card. Just use Syncthing for that. Much faster and less hassle. You can use any music player on your phone that you want, not just one that works with jellyfin.

If you aren’t streaming music in real time for the majority of time, then do a phone sync, not a streaming server.

I have heard symphonium is very good if they are looking at closed source Plex anyway. It works with jellyfin and navidrome.

I just use syncthing to sync all of my music to my phone’s SD card. Then PowerAmp since there aren’t many fully featured foss music players. I am keeping my eye on Auxio though, keeping it installed and updated.

Yeah, but as someone who had both bazzite and Opensuse MicroOS (Kalpa), it is even more of a long and painful process on that platform lol.

Immutable OS’s are literally for people who specifically don’t want to tinker. Everything via flatpack except a few system-level apps layered on the base image.

(Also they are for people who don’t need document digital signing as Firefox and libre office can’t access the modules via flatpak)

If people want specific apps and don’t want to build them or use user space apps then it definitely isn’t their best option. Just a different option.

I have very much enjoyed never even having to think about updating my system for months

And ladies and gentlemen, that is part of the reason for the gender gap lol

Their entire list is odd choices except for the top 10 (even persona 5 is iffy as top 10 of all time)

They favor shooters and then place a game that had lost most of its audience in under a year as the best shooter other than doom 1 of all time.

I love helldivers, but it is a very niche game in comparison to so many others, even those on the list.

Not to mention KOTOR and DA:O as 94 and 95. Also prey is an extremely weird choice…

I mean, the abrahamic religions seem to all try to create fascist states. Look at Israel as well as a few middle eastern fascist movements.

Then again, China has also satisfied a lot of the qualifications of fascism in the past century and they are mostly athiest IIRC.

You seem to be under the impression that Roku and Chromecast don’t do the exact same things.

There is no good solution because connecting a Pi or something is not as good as modern TVs without an AV1 decoder and it also doesn’t have a good remote interface as far as I know.
