To be fair, IF tumblr had added the tipping feature while porn was huge on the site, it might have became Onlyfans.

OF wasn't always a porn site. It was trying to be a Patron that allowed adult content, but it became just a porn site.

I argue something similar would have happened to tumblr

I checked for you and good news!

Tap for spoilerHe isn't involved in much except investing in mobility aides and was apparently on the Planned Parenthood board for a while.

Quick search showed his most recent activity was being the single largest donor to Mark Kelly's 2020 senate campaign.

Completely normal progressive liberal stuff.

Imagine less off a proper BOD and more of a 3D Printable holder for 3.5 inch drives and no actual connections.

I was considering a mini ITX PC with just an external SAS to Sata PCI card. But at the rate of just building that I might end up just building a better tiny nas box with maybe a jonsbo case like the N3

That's basically what I'm going for.

How are you connecting the mini PC via SATA and how are you powering the BOD?

Its probably a parent company situation.

Lots of corpo structures are just large parent companies that actually just own a bunch of smaller companies so that the parent company gets the profits while the smaller companies make the risky products and can be bankrupted at any minute.

The company I work for does that. We just bought a couple companies that were competitors in a risky but profitable market. The full idea is that if one company gets sued to oblivion, we let that company die, move all the employees and customers to the backup company, and call it a day.

Capitalism baby!

Probably why they didn't do it in the first place.

They barely pay for moderation. Who is going to pay for that survey? And also why would they? Obviously most of the people on that site are under 18. That's when I used it.

What other demographic clicks the horny ads they run?

I hate to report but Candice called Gaza a genocide and said when the vacation spot opens on Gaza beach we should look at those who went as vermin.

  1. obviously she's a grifter who is rapidly loosing favor in the trump regime she helped build. So always keep that in mind.

  2. I'm personally not a fan of dehumanizing fascists or genocide enablers. I think its important that we remember that human beings are always capable of this.

I actually don't even care about AI Ethics here.

Fuck Academic Dishonesty!

I usually follow the craft computing video whenever I have to set it up. He has a document in the description with all the things you might need to passthrough a GPU but only like half are needed to passthrough an HBA

Proxmox wiki has a more concise guide IMO

It was really simple to do in Proxmox.

You will find no name brand HBAs in IT mode on eBay for half the price of Intel, Supermicro, Dell, Etc branded ones. Do not buy the no names. I spent a week flashing and reflashing some cheap one, cycling through cables, etc. Nothing.

My supermicro branded one worked absolutely no issue. And I think it was like $40

It probably took a total of 30 minutes to pass it through and build the VM and everything. It took a couple days to rebuild my data from my previous truenas server but I had 10 TB of data on 4 drives.

The only issues I've had have been my own reading comprehension in setting up truenas accounts.

Are you using truenas as the entire homelab?

I also love messing with stuff until it breaks and I learn something, but I've decided I just want my files to be accessible.

So I actually have truenas virtualized with a passed through HBA so I can run proxmox to host all my breakable VMs while leaving truenas alone.
