Fully supported by Monado looks like.

They’re pretty decent. Really depends on the temperature.

If the room is cool you hear the hard drives over the chassis fans. Power is totally dependent on the CPU. I put a 4790k in the R220 and it would sit around 45-55w average with two 3.5” drives.

I have a Dell R220 and a R240 which I’m looking to offload, free. They’re both specifically for short racks if you happen to be near central NC.

Monado helped me kick windows for VR. With a quest you’d use WiVRn:

I’d recommend using Envision to have a nice GUI: https://lvra.gitlab.io/docs/fossvr/envision/

On the NTFS thing, Steam really does not like NTFS drives in my experience. Converting to Ext4 would be a good idea for gaming purposes.

You actually can’t anymore. Let it go my dude.

Bro, what sort of hate-train are you on?

You can dislike the iPhone, that’s totally cool and your prerogative. But making up lies just looks silly.

You can’t install or update a single app on a google play protected phone without an account either, and now that sideloading is getting locked down your options are even fewer. And what’s this nonsense about no calculator? The iPhone has had a calculator since 2007.

That is completely false. You can setup an iPhone and place a phone call, browse the web, listen to music, etc without an Apple account.

Insane how people get so worked up over other people’s opinions and reply with incorrect conjecture.

Some real fanboyism going on in here.

Every Samsung phone I’ve had came with Facebook, onedrive, bixby, AR Emoj, and a bunch of other stuff. You can remove almost everything from an iPhone except the App Store.

Same as the other reply here, if you’re on your local network most likely be a 192. address. You can find this on the host server by the “ip a” command.

Personally immich is pretty advanced for someone new to homelab, you might find starting with homeassistant or something might be easier to get started. Also immich is super beta right now and prone to drastic breaking changes with each update.

From the little bit I can see in the screenshot I see a 5 starting the IP, assuming that’s a public IP.

Need to know, are you trying to access at home on the same WiFi network or outside your house on cellular?

Have you set up a reverse proxy or done any port forwarding?

There’s an AZ CLI for every PS Azure module though.

The case was that Google paid apps to not be on competing stores and only be on the Play store. It’s not a lawsuit around Android sideloading.

Still ironic though that Epic games is the main proponent, but yet they do the exact same thing on their store paying for exclusives.

We should ban phones as well because people get scam calls.

There’s basically no reason ever to do water cooling on a home system unless you’re trying to do overclocking.

Air is cheaper, more reliable, and typically quieter because you don’t need pumps.

Are you sure you need that? I just added a —user to the docker run and it started just fine on port 80 in the container.

Adding many GUIs are available for 7zip format on Linux, most popular is probably Ark.

At least where I work, our cloud team is ~35 people who manage the whole thing.

The datacenter team? In the hundreds.

Cloud is not the answer to every infra problem, but the flexibility, time to market, and lifecycle burden are easily beneficial weighed against finops. I’m an Azure engineer myself, it’s no comparison the benefits to a managed solution vs rolling your own DC for a lot of regular business workloads and solutions. Beyond that personally I’ve been able to skill up in areas I wouldn’t be able to otherwise if I was stuck troubleshooting bad cables, rebuilding a dead RAID array, or planning VMWare scaling nonsense.
