I’ve stuck to Samsung for the longest time, and the hardware is objectively built with quality in mind. At least their flagship phones. However, they’re so ridiculously priced these days, and now that I have to pay for them myself I’d have to spend a larger portion of my monthly paycheck than I am willing to. Plus the OS is so mangled and getting more and more annoying and intrusive.

I recently bought a Nothing Phone for one of my kids, and I think I wanna try them next; Seems good and reasonably priced.

I take it we’re talking about announcing and not hosting? If so, a the piracy communities might be interested in learning about it.

Some VLAN-related nuggets that you may find useful for your post/blog:

• 99% of the time when people refer to VLAN, they’re talking about 802.1Q (tag-based VLANs). There are others (Such as port based), so it’s up whether you want to cover those as well.
• The word “Trunk” can mean different things, depending on vendor. In the Cisco world, it means a line/port carrying multiple VLANs. With many other vendors, such as Aruba/HPE, it refers to link aggregation which isn’t necessarily relevant to VLANs
• A lot of hardware still use VLANs even if none have been configured. For example, defaulting all switch ports to have an Access tag of 1 makes it behave like a dumb switch. This can cause issues later if you’re configuring VLANs elsewhere
• Anything non-vlany connected to a VLAN-enabled switch will have to be connected to a port with a default VLAN tag. This is usually referred to as an “Access port” or an “Untagged port”
• “How do I configure the switch to allow units on VLAN 123 to talk to VLAN 321?”. You don’t. Connect both VLANs to a router which will route between them. Either connect the router to both VLANs individually and skip the tagging on the router, or you can run a single trunk between the switch and the router which carries both VLANs. The latter requires you to configure VLANs on your router accordingly.
• It might make sense in many cases to have the VLAN tag the same as the last octet in the IPv4 subnet. Makes it easier to keep track of.
• A PC can implement VLANs on its network port, allowing you to connect to a trunk port and access several VLANs with one cable.

The API stupidity a while back. Reddit is unusable without 3rd party clients, and inc3 Joey didn’t work anymore I said goodbye to the few communities who’s members might recognize my username, and proceeded to delete my account.

That’s because the unredacted European names are distractions from the redacted mentions of the orange lardsack.

Just for the record, MacOS is a descendant of FreeBSD. At least it was for quite a while.

As long as you have the ram to run it, I find that ZFS covers most of my needs unless I am dealing with something that necessitates beegfs. My basement server has 12 drives in JBOD, tied together with ZFS, and it works fine.

Personally, I’d have some sort of enclosure that could also house a raspberry pi and similar, which mounts those disks in ZFS and shares them via NFS. That’d ensure compatibility with any OS, but it might be overkill.

Whenever I hear MacOS, just assume complete and utter incompetence on my part. I still don’t know how to right click to open a context menu.

But for a more general approach, how portable does it have to be, and how much storage would be ideal? A few TB, or are we talking about PB?

Large scale performance. My job involves obscene amounts of storage, and nothing beats a proper raid controller with cache vault. When clustering many storage nodes into one big filesystem, across several machines, any overhead is awful.

On a hobby-level I don’t mind software raid. I just don’t want to put it into production.

But she’s being controlled by the globalist ****** (substitute that for any slur. My choice is “Svenskefaen”), trying to distract us from big farma putting nutrients in our food.
