I needed a PSU that was efficient at 20W and so I consulted Wolfgang's PSU Low Idle Efficiency List, because it was one of the first results on YouTube. However, the first thing you may notice is that the reports it links to are no longer in the same place on Cybenetics' website. If you manually check the PSU model on their website, you actually get different numbers for 20W. After having this revelation, I scraped the entire website and found that Wolfgang's data is no longer current. I don't know why after a second evaluation Cybenetics had different results, but am inviting you to ask with me.

Here are the top 150:

They never asked me to make security questions. I set my password the first time and completed some required forms. Then, these buffoons reset my password again (2nd) and made me change it to something else (3rd). The thing is, when I changed my password the site gave me a non-descript error banner and redirected me to the login. Now neither the 1st password, 2nd password, or 3rd password works. To top it off I can't even reset the password. I think the site is having an aneurysm.

Amirite?

I should be writing a paper right now.

If the format seems familiar, it’s because I recently finished “House of Leaves” (no pun intended)

Also, yeah this really happened, which I think makes it funnier. And I eat more fiber nowadays btw.

Could be work or school.

Found this cute little guy. Battery bms seems to either be dead or cell voltage too low. Has anyone in the Linux community revived a BMS before or recharged from zero?

I'm thinking of backing all of my family's digital assets up. It includes less than 4 TB of information. Most are redundant video files that are in old encodings or not encoded at all and there are a lot of duplicate images and old documents. I'm gonna clean this stuff up with a bash script and some good old manual review, but first I need to do some pre-planning.

• What's the cheapest and most flexible NAS I can make from eBay or local? What kind of processors and what motherboard features?
• What separate guides should I follow to source the drives? What RAID?
• What backup style should I follow? How many cold copies? How do I even handle the event of a fire?

I intend to do some of this research on my own since no one answer is fully representative but am appreciative of any leads.
