Same. Firefox Mobile had been a laggy mess when I used it a few years ago, but a combination of some really aggressive advertising and the announcement of manifest v3 caused me to give it another shot about a year ago. It's a dramatic improvement in phone browsing.

The more I've thought about it the more I think Pete really is one of the safer candidates in that list. He's already been vetted at the national level from the 2020 cycle. He's wicked smart, is a great debater, and from the people who have seen him speak gets people excited. He has a national presence already and doesn't require giving up a governorship or senate seat.

He won the Iowa caucus in 2020 but because of their whole glitch thing it wasn't official until days later. Should bring some good Midwest support too being from Indiana and presently living in Michigan.

Anything I've listened to with Ray Porter reading it. His intonation is great and just brings that something extra to the stories. In particular Project Hail Mary and the Bobiverse books. He also did Paradox Bound, which felt like a fine time travel story but his portrayal of the voice of the "faceless men" made the character 's menace come to life for me in a way I don't think would be captured in text.

Prosthetist. I work with patients to make and fit artificial limbs to them.

Lots of good advice here. I've got a bunch of older WD Reds still in service (from before the SMR BS). I've also had good luck shucking drives from external enclosures as well as decommissioned enterprise drives. If you go that route, depending on your enclosure or power supply in these scenarios you may run into issues with a live 3.3V SATA power pin causing drives to reboot. I've never had this issue on mine but it can be fixed with a little kapton tape or a modified SATA adapter. It's definitely cheaper to shuck or get used enterprise for capacity! I'm running at least a dozen shucked drives right now and they've been great for my needs.

Also, if you start reaching the point of going beyond the ports available on your motherboard, do yourself a favor and get a quality HBA card flashed in IT mode to connect your drives. The cheapo 4 port cards I originally tried would have random dropouts in Unraid from time to time. Once I got a good HBA it's been smooth sailing. It needs to be in IT mode to prevent hardware raid from kicking in so that Unraid can see the individual identifiers of the disks. You can flash it yourself or use an eBay seller like ThArtOfServer who will preflash them to IT mode.

Finally, be aware that expanding your array is a slippery slope. You start with 3 or 4 drives and next thing you know you have a rack and 15+ drive array.

It seems a lot of the new ones have a cellular modem. On the surface it's to let you remotely access the car or do a remote start. Even if you don't pay to subscribe and use it for your purposes they can utilize it to transfer out the data.

Ditto. Mine was stolen out of my car 9 years ago and I still miss it.

I don't think I realized that was a limitation because I've been using the Vaultwarden fork. https://github.com/dani-garcia/vaultwarden

Same, though I've got a couple Decepticons sprinkled in. They all connect to the Allspark ssid.

Seconding the Shield, for all of the above plus Nvidia's update commitment to it. IIRC the 2015 Shield is the longest continually updated Android device ever. I have a 2015, 2017, and a 2019 at my house, and a couple of 2017s at my parents' place. I upgraded the older ones to the toblerone remote last year. All are still working great, and continuing to receive regular updates.

Well said. I had hardware that was killed by "upgrades" or manufacturers discontinuing them from their cloud features. I now instal locally controllable hardware as much as possible and it has led to a much more stable and long term reliable smart home. Everything ties back into Home Assistant. The only remaining things I have with a cloud-reliant integration are the robovac our Nest Protect Smoke Alarms, and smart vents. The only reason they're cloud controlled is there wasn't a viable option that met feature and price point requirements. Everything else, (65+devices) is local Wi-Fi/Homekit ZigBee or Z-Wave

Walking on the Sun by Smash Mouth. I had a radio recording on a cassette tape until my uncle bought me the CD of the album Fush Yu Mang. I was only allowed to listen to that track off of it because my mom deemed the rest of it to not be appropriate. (As an adult, the other tracks were indeed totally inappropriate for a preteen)
