I have a standing desk. I use it all the time. Reading about all these people who just sit down while they work on stuff feels weird, like, how do you get anything done? I don’t even have a chair, it would be pointless. If I want to sit, I just go to the couch.
Lemmy, and YouTube.
I used to subscribe to Morning Brew, but I got frustrated with the constant emails I needed to read everyday instead of only when I wanted to see the news.
I’ve heard good things about Ground News, but I can’t afford to spend money on yet another subscription service.
Unreproducible, random bugs that can be temporarily solved by repeating your actions a bunch of times until it works. Drives me nuts, and they show up all over the place.
Hadn’t thought of that, makes sense though. Thanks
Well, how would you spell it? I don’t have time to look up every word I don’t remember the spelling of when I’m typing from a phone.
Here’s one, it certainly got a laugh out of me
The store I work at mostly hires immigrants. While I would say that the language barrier is squing things a little, my coworkers generally have never handled technology before, even if they were previously in a role that had a high level of education.
Take one of my coworkers for example. When she asked me what I was reading, my fumbled attempt to explain fanfiction might as well have been pure gibrish. She didn’t even have a concept of a book that isn’t educational, never mind not knowing the translation of “fiction”. After explaining the concept, she said “Oh, like the Bible?”
I think I might have done a mental bluescreen at that one.
Even just this last week, she seemed to be genuenly confuzed when I explained that I was writing a book. She kept asking “oh, are you in school then?” as if the only reason to ever write stuff was for school.
Anyways, my point is; the average everyday person has likely never so much as owned a smartphone, never mind knows how to boot off a usb drive. It’s not just an immigrant thing either, my familly is almost utterly unable to have conversations with me because they don’t even recognize 3/4ths of the words I need to use to describe the concept I need to explain to explain why I was laughing at a meme.
Low quality is better than no quality. That is, something is better than nothing, and options are always good.

And how many bottles are still in your closet? Because that’s always the first thing you should check after thinking that particular thought.

My only gripe is that it only works on mobile, so I can’t have all my settings shared with my laptop. Otherwise, it’s nearly flawless and the premium is cheap as hell.
To be fair, the budget isn’t so much a question of “how much I have”, but rather a question of “how long am I willing to save up”
The 3K figure I used in my post was based on the relative price of similar systems I’d found online that “mostly” for the bill of what I was looking for.
Systems that actually had the kind of CPU I was looking for often ran in the range of 7K, which would take me about two to three years to save up for.
And while yes, I was looking in the wrong catagory, as far as I can tell they don’t sell non-NAS systems. I wasn’t able the find a single example of a server designed for CPU tasks until I posted here and was recommended the Minisforum MS-01. Which is, admittedly, overkill in the extreme, but at least I won’t have to upgrade for a long while, and I only have to save up for 3 or 4 months to afford it!
Yeah, the Minisforum Ms-01 was suggested a lot, and as far as I can tell, its nearly perfect. After reading thtough the comments on this post, I’m planning on buying one or two on a few months.
I’m a bit concerned about the risks associated with having storage and compute on the same device, but I can always get a regular nas for storage later.
Thank you so much! After searching it up online, the Minisforum MS-01 seems to check off every box I’d had when I went looking.
I’ll look around to see if there is anything more suited, but for now, it seems like what I’ll end up going with.
Thanks!
Thank you, I’ll do just that
Thank you! I’ll check it out, it seems to have quite a few good suggestions.
Mostly, I just don’t know much about hardware in general. I’m sure I could follow a tutorial online on how to put it together, but I don’t know much about what I’d need to buy in the first place.
I’ll look online and see what I can find though, this does seem like what I’m going to have to do to get the specs I want.
What an odd question. I would, of course, become feral immediately and find a forest to live the rest of my days in.
