I had the same trouble when looking for a NAS case that did not cost a fortune.I ended up buying a Gemini nas case from Ali Express.

Other than waiting a couple of weeks for it to arrive the price was around $140 USD and it is actually a really good case and mine holds 8 drives.

Microslop Winblows at it again… ugh

Thank you. Although I do switch up dinner, this evening I had a gammon joint instead of chicken.

once a day lol

Breakfast: cereal bar

Break: toast

Lunch: Ham sandwich

Dinner: chicken dinner; mash, chicken breast, peas, Yorkshire puddings, gravy.

I don’t really tend to eat snacks very often.

Nice to see someone taking a principled stand with their reasoning clearly explained.

I am in full agreement with them and will not be using any sites that ask me for ID. However I do feel that getting enough people to refuse at a scale that would make platforms act is sadly rather unlikely.

Thanks

I’m open to ideas, already got everything I can think of. Would love to be inspired

kind of getting ready for the day when the open web becomes pretty much unusable due to ai and id requirements

running the images through ollama using this model: gemma3:latest

It is working on cpu only and still gives a decent throughput

Might be worth a try.

The thing that has surprised me the most is how good this AI model is at accurately knowing what is in a picture when the model itself is only 3GB in size.

No i’m not just kind of thought it would be nice to have, that way if i ever need to make any cards or banners i have loads of stuff in every category, with no ugly AI pics like most search engine image searches show these days.

This feeds into my ultimate project which I think will take me all summer.

I plan to create a lan wide search that has kiwix, tube archivist, ubooquity, paperless, jellyfin, stock images and stash.

Then I would have a unified search point and i think it would make kiwix far more usable by not having to go to the specific zim first. BBut, it is a tricky project as some things are nice and have api’s others don’t

Wow thanks just picked up some great tricks.

Especially sudo !!

Unpopular answer, but Unraid; as i have mixed sized drives.

Nice a real step forward for private communication.

Would be awesome if it ever has a messaging section without having to make a call, still, an awesome start!

Wow so awesome going to try it out.
