Yeah, pick literally any other instance. I went with Mozilla's, but there are plenty of alternatives. Or host your own!

To be fair, both of those are delicious. That said, I haven't had caviar itself (too expensive), but I've had plenty of other fish-egg products, and it's fantastic as a sushi topper or in a salad or something. I also love lobster, crab, and other "weird" foods from the bottom of the ocean.

Maybe I'm trashy, idk.

It doesn’t really matter if it’s legally piracy or not

You're right, it absolutely doesn't, which is why it's so weird to me that Linus makes a big deal about it.

then you’re just freeloading

Which is why I either donate to channels I like or buy their merch. They get way more than if I wasn't blocking ads, and I don't have to support a company that manipulates people with ads. So I guess at the end of the day I'm "stealing" from YouTube, and I guess I'm okay with that. If they offered good value for their premium service, I'd pay. But they don't, so I just use an ad-blocker to get the thing I care about. I refuse to let them harvest my personal data, and that's basically what their advertising is designed to do. I'd disable my ad-blocker if their ads were provably not tracking me, but I know that to not be true.

I'm not against paying for things. I pay for Nebula, my email (Tuta), and some other alternatives to Google products, I just refuse to pay for artificial limitations. YouTube Premium sucks for my intended use-case (download news to listen to on my commute, and occasionally listen to music while doing chores), and it's not worth the $10 or whatever they charge for it. If they offered a lower tier (say, something based on watch-time), I might pay for it, more out of guilt than anything, but it needs to be a fair price. About half the channels I regularly watch are on Nebula or Odyssee, so I wouldn't miss too much if they blocked my access to it.

I like them on occasion, but I prefer them smoked, I think it does wonders to the natural flavors.

I'd much rather have mussels though (not raw, boiled). Mussels in a oil pasta is fantastic.

Or smoke them. Canned, smoked oysters are fantastic.

Agreed. I'm happy with having them steamed with a little lemon spritzed on top. They're basically big, soft shrimp.

Yup. I prefer them smoked, so I get a can a couple times per year. I honestly don't want more than that.

But when it comes to mussels, load me up! I could eat those multiple times a week and not get bored of them.

“There wasn’t some arrogant ambition around disruption [of buttons],” Ive told the outlet. “It was a very gentle, humble exploration.”

That's just using a router with extra steps.

Sure, but their deliveries have also been incredibly large. I'd be surprised if they haven't already made enough from previous sales to cover all existing and near-term investments into AI. The scale of the build-out by big cloud firms like Amazon, Google, and Microsoft has been absolutely incredible, and Nvidia's only constraint has been making enough of them to sell. So even if support completely evaporates, I think they'll be completely fine.

Here's what I currently have:

  • Ryzen 1700 w/ 16GB RAM
  • GTX 750 ti
  • 1x SATA SSD - 120GB, currently use <50GB
  • 2x 8TB SATA HDD
  • runs openSUSE Leap, considering switch to microOS

And main services I run (total disk usage for OS+services - data is :

  • NextCloud - possibly switch to ownCloud infinite scale
  • Jellyfin - transcoding is nice to have, but not required
  • samba
  • various small services (Unifi Controller, vaultwarden, etc)

And services I plan to run:

  • CI/CD for Rust projects - infrequent builds
  • HomeAssistant
  • maybe speech to text? I'm looking to build an Alexa replacement
  • Minecraft server - small scale, only like 2-3 players, very few mods

HW wishlist:

  • 16GB RAM - 8GB may be a little low longer term
  • 4x SATA - may add 2 more HDDs
  • m.2 - replace my SATA SSD; ideally 2x for RAID, but I can do backups; performance isn't the concern here (1x sata + PCIe would work)
  • dual NIC - not required, but would simplify router config for private network; could use USB to Eth dongle, this is just for security cameras and whatnot
  • very small - mini-ITX at the largest; I want to shove this under my bed
  • very quiet
  • very low power - my Ryzen 1700 is overkill, this is mostly for the "quiet" req, but also paying less is nice

I've heard good things about N100 devices, but I haven't seen anything w/ 4x SATA or an accessible PCIe for a SATA adapter.

The closest I've seen is a ZimaBlade, but I'm worried about:

  • performance, especially as a CI server
  • power supply - why couldn't they just do regular USB-C?
  • access to extra USB ports - its hidden in the case

I don't need x86 for anything, ARM would be fine, but I'm having trouble finding anything with >8GB RAM and SATA/PCIe options are a bit... limited.

Anyway, thoughts?

Looks like most of the improvements have nothing to do with GNOME, so they should also probably impact Kalpa (the KDE MicroOS distro).

I'm particularly interested in these developments because I'm going to upgrade the CPU on my NAS (old Phenom II -> Ryzen 1700), and I'm considering reinstalling w/ MicroOS. It's currently running on an old SATA SSD, but NVMe drives are getting so cheap that it's probably worth an upgrade.

Looks like Leap 15.6 will ship with Cockpit, which looks pretty cool.

I just set up a new VPS w/ Leap 15.5, so I'm thinking about giving this a try. I'm not a fan of YaST on the CLI, and I'm not going to install a GUI on my VPS, so being able to just SSH tunnel to the admin panel sounds really nice.

Has anyone tried Cockpit (project link for the lazy)? It seems like it can manage most popular distros, so that's a pretty big value prop over YaST, which is pretty much only for SUSE. It looks like it's a RedHat project, but it's cool that openSUSE is pulling it in for 15.6.
