Less than it would be if they expected you to go full ham 24/7.

Unlimited data for your phone, not your computer.

The carrier who's paying for your traffic. You're most likely going to use a lot more data on a computer than actually on your phone.

I'm pretty sure that's only a theory and not something that's ever actually been confirmed. That said people on /r/datahoarder have raved about those drives for 5+ years at this point, and so far all 6 of my drives have been going strong after 6 years of constant abuse.

Just know that higher RPM doesn't necessarily mean higher noise. In my experience Helium filled drives can be pretty quiet, and basically all really high capacity drives are helium filled.

I have an arm of shucked WD drives and while I can hear them from time to time, they're not bad. Also your case makes a huge difference. Make sure the drives are on rubber isolators, and what they're mounted on can't vibrate to make any noise. The only noise I hear from these drives is when they first spin up after being idled.

starting in lemmy 0.19: (username in top right) > settings > Import/Export Settings > export

Then import on your new community and all of your subscriptions, settings, etc will be migrated over. Comments/posts won't migrate over, but besides basic user settings followed_communities, saved_posts, saved_comments, blocked_communities, blocked_users, and blocked_instances get copied over. It's not instantly after it loads. I just tested it and it's taken about 5 minutes now and it's still going through my subscriptions (maybe 50/360) and then blocked instances are next and it should be done.

Double checked and it's done done now about 13 mintues after I made the comment. So maybe 20 minutes to impot a profile with a large number of subscriptions.

Is 5640 RPM acceptable? WD reds are all about 5400rpm and are basically the gold standard for NAS HDDs.

You can shuck them out of WD easy store drives sold at best buy. They're white label drives from WD, but they're all based on the red/red pro drives.

Tesla: people really like that you can just order a car online and not have to deal with slimey sales tactics. What can we do to fuck even that up too?

Did you expect a doorbell with a camera built into it to not be "smart"?

Does the monitor have 3.5mm out port on it? If so then any HDMI device should work, with the 3.5mm port plugged into the monitor.

He was responsible for the figurative nosedive my boss' previous company did. Now he's responsible for the literal nosedive of Boeing.

This man is a professional company ruiner, not just a scape goat.

 

Is anyone aware of any switches (or media converters) with SFP+ ports capable of negotiating 2.5Gbit speeds that don't cost an arm and a leg?

I have the Google Fiber 2 gig plan and I'd like to get rid of the fiber box since they've been extremely unreliable and our 4th one has just died. Unfortunately in order to get the full speeds I need something that can take a 2.5 gig SFP+ connection. 10 gig will not work, and 1 gig obviously only gets me half the speed.

I've found a few Unifi compatible switches, but they're between $600 and $900 which is just insane for all we need.

Media converter wise everything I've found is 2.5gig on the rj45 side and 10 gig only on the SFP.

Something has to exist out there right? It can't only be Google who are the freaks using 2.5 gig SFP modules.
