I was an AirVPN user for a number of years until Mullvad came around. I switched to Mullvad and stuck with them for a few years. However, now that Mullvad has gotten rid of port forwarding, I have since moved back to AirVPN.
The performance has been solid with all the servers I have used, even with multiple tunnels open. My only complaint is that the IPs on the servers I use are unfortunately blacklisted on quite a number of sites. Other than that, I am satisfied.
I’m not sure about anyone else, but this is the type of tech I would wait for a few generations before even remotely considering diving into it. It just doesn’t seem worthwhile to me, especially considering that it sounds like the first generation will be a paid beta.
I bet that is extremely fun! I can’t get into VR myself but one of these days, I’ll invest in some gear and try it out!
How does it play overall?
Perfect! I had to use it when I was updating my cache drive and reorganizing download data across a few drives to add a new one. It took hours and hours, but once it was done, all the data ended up in the right places, and when I relaunched my dockers, everything worked without a hitch.
Just remember to turn off any services like VMs, dockers, or movers before using it. It’s much simpler that way since live data won’t be passing through while you’re moving it.
LSI cards are indeed a boon for servers with massive amounts of drives, like yours. Hopefully, you can get it working, and once you have it set up, everything should interconnect seamlessly.
If needed, you can also consider consolidating your data using unBALANCE. This way, you can distribute some data to the larger drives and potentially remove smaller, older drives that are on their way out or causing unnecessary overhead, which would free up space and optimize resources in your build.
Like you, I had old retired server hardware for Unraid earlier this year that I used for many years, and it worked just fine. However, I decided to modernize my setup and retire the old hardware. I gave it to an enthusiast friend of mine to do whatever he pleases with it.
I wouldn’t say the hardware you have now is a complete waste. Instead, it provides a good platform for continuous learning. Is it overkill? Perhaps, but it’s not necessarily a bad thing either.
In my server, I have 11 disks and one cache drive. The majority of those drives host all my media and files, while three of them are dedicated to downloads and random stuff that I don’t organize too well but still keep around. It may not be the tidiest setup, but it works for me. Every six months or so, when I’m bored and want to try something new and learn, I streamline it. I also don’t use parity because I like to live dangerously!
I cannot attest to whether this product is BIFL or not, as we have only had it for about a year. However, this Ninja has been fantastic and works really well for everyone in the house who uses it. It’s used daily and is still going strong.
If anything, it is probably a good idea to keep accounts open for the next few weeks and check on them periodically to see if the content restores on its own. If it does, you can then proceed to use the delete suite of your choice and run it again.
I suppose that once you are fully confident in deleting your account, you can do so. Alternatively, it might be better to keep the accounts open but delete all the content at this point.
Wow… You aren’t kidding. I wiped out a very old account I had from when I was far younger the other day. Logged into it just now and all my edits and deletions are back like it never happened…
I feel like I tried Dark Forces many years ago but wasn’t really into it back when I was younger. I’m betting I would be more into now though. Especially seeing a fan project to modernize it.
Always down to just lose myself in DKC and DKC2. I feel both games are just perfect in all aspects. Gameplay, sound, visuals. True classics.
Jedi Outcast was my jam back in the day. Would love to see Kyle become canon again.
Heading down to Busch Gardens on a package deal. Haven’t been there in quite a long time so, should be fun!
I just setup my own Mastodon instance the other day and finally got it all working. Wish there was Lemmy on CA too. Tried doing docker-compose but it just fails and I can’t be too bothered to figure out why.
I guess I will patiently wait for someone out there to post it to the CA and hopefully SWAG has a nginx template to go along with it in the future.
Everyone would say that the Venture X would compliment the Savor One quite nicely. The annual fee of $395 is the only deterrent and the ecosystem for the points are best utilized for travel at that point.
The annual fee is negated by the $300 travel credit when booking on the portal and the 10k annual points given on your anniversary date.
