Snippet: Hello, it is a long time since I experimented with NAS so I am now out of the loop and hope you could help me. I am looking for OS for my NAS or apps that I could run on OS that would fill my needs. I tried some of them but sadly I have not enough time to try many different ones (I have a little kid that I want to spend time with as much as possible). I daily-drive Arch Linux and have used Ubuntu/Debian-based distros…

Snippet: I have a fair amount of experience in the field and through my career I was primarily working as a frontend developer. I did my share of frameworks and libraries... my first projects as a fresh graduate were made with jQuery and Bootstrap. Then I was there when the JS ecosystem exploded and everyone was doing Angular and React. Shortly after, multiplatform became a thing with Ionic, followed up quickly with React Nat…

Snippet: I'm an avid user of Deepseek v4 Flash via antirez's DS4 DwarfStar inference engine , and so when the new checkpoint dropped, the first thing I did was rent a cloud box and spin up a quantization for use in my DS4 deployment. Props to Unsloth for getting their GGUFs out so quickly, but for me it only runs at The purpose-build DS4 engine runs at double that, slightly over 30 tok/sec on my MBP M5 Max. That's actually us…

Snippet: Hey, I'm new to self-hosting and don't really know what I'm doing yet. I set up a jellyfin server a few weeks ago with nginx proxy manager. Currently trying to add immich. I merged the immich docker-compose.yml with the one I was using for jellyfin and npm using the -f command, but when I ran docker compose up -d , I couldn't access any of my apps on their designated ports anymore. The page wouldn't load in my browse…

Snippet: I recently started my first full-time role as a Junior Cloud Engineer right after graduating with a bachelor's degree in Information Systems. My background includes IT support, a system administration internship, Security+, and Azure Fundamentals. The biggest challenge is that many of my teammates have years of experience. During meetings, they often discuss technologies, architectures, and concepts that I'm not fami…

Snippet: I was trying to answer a boring cost question and accidentally found a threshold problem. Setup The setup was a small vision-LLM workflow using hosted API models: compare two pharma packaging images, score look-alike risk across 11 criteria, then turn the weighted score into a bucket. Tested on 2026-08-01. The main model in the repeated run was gpt-4.1-mini-2025-04-14 . I also compared it with gpt-5.6-luna for token …

Snippet: Also posted on r/synology Hi all, I recently picked up a Synology SA3600 and matching RX1217sas expansion shelf for AUD$562 total (SA3600: A$362, RX1217sas: A$200). At that price I felt it was worth taking a chance on, and even if I can’t get it working I suspect I can recover my money by selling parts, so I’m happy to experiment. Unfortunately the SA3600 appears to have a motherboard or firmware issue. Symptoms Flas…

Snippet: Most reversal strategies fail for a boring reason: the candlestick pattern is doing all the work, and the candlestick pattern can't carry that weight. An engulfing bar is a shape. Shapes print everywhere. What makes one meaningful isn't the shape, it's whether it printed at a price where a liquidity run already happened and got absorbed. One is evidence that size changed hands. The other is a picture. So I stopped tr…

Snippet: I've been trying to figure out the best long-term solution for watching Jellyfin on my Samsung OLED. At the moment I'm using the Samsung Jellyfin app, but there are a couple of issues: • The app doesn't get updated frequently, as it’s a bit of a pain to do. • The TV only has a 100 Mbps Ethernet port. • When watching high-bitrate 4K remuxes, I occasionally get a few seconds of buffering/freezing. I'm assuming the 100 …

Snippet: I like having games open on my second monitor while I’m working on something else. Ideally, I want a game that I can properly focus on and actively play when I have time, but that also has meaningful idle systems that support my progress in the background. I’m not talking about cheap p2w mobile like systems where you wait a few hours and collect some bonus currency. I mean somewhat connected to the game and still fee…

Snippet: The market is currently punishing the AI and semiconductor sector because investors are waking up to an unsustainable CapEx reality. Big Tech is pouring billions into datacenters, but the ROI timeline is expanding. Why?

After seeing the carry system in the Chapter 1 post and some of the replies to my previous reddit post, I've been thinking about the idea a bit more. My original thought was basically: what if larger pieces of wood couldn't just go straight into your inventory and actually had to be carried? But I think there are really two different situations here. The first is…

I know building technical solutions is not supposed to exist purely for my entertainment, but I do actually want to enjoy my job. I am not currently working as a DevOps engineer, and one of the reasons I moved toward development was that I became completely bored with modern cloud infrastructure.
