You mean A Guy Instead?

Relying on proprietary software means the manufacturer could pull the rug from under you at any time. Who could’ve guessed…

Around here, people usually have to replace the wiring in such old houses, since they tend to only have two wires (i.e. no PE). But the Schuko sockets themselves are most likely fine.

I think the typical limit is around 3600W, with 16A at 230V

I have never heard of someone having to replace their wall outlets due to wear and tear

100MB/s are frustrating for a NAS. SSDs have been common for a decade, and the old spinning rust storage in my NAS is still faster than the network can handle?

About to apt get me some malware

That’s true, but nothing does. Once someone receives a message, you have no control over what they do with it (regardless of communication channel, encryption, etc.). I read the comment above more like “instead of jumping through hoops to get around the spyware in your operating system, use an operating system that does not come with built-in spyware instead”.

Why not just 2.749?

There are special 3-phase connectors, but usually only in the kitchen (for an electric range)

People only see what their outlet provides. If you ask someone about the european voltage, they’ll probably say “220-230V”, not " 3-phase 400V".

Look what they have to do to mimic a fraction of our power

There is no “both sides” here when the playing field is so uneven. As a protestor, just showing up in a simple motorcycle helmet would be a crime - nevermind the full body armor the cops are wearing.

Isn’t it generally a good idea to buy as locally as possible to reduce unnecessary shipping emissions?

I always get ‘Blocked by Network security’ for trying to access Reddit from a VPN

No, your VPN provider needs to offer port forwarding for that to work. You can still use qbittorrent without port forwarding, but it’ll be harder to find peers which could lower your speeds

AFAIK the selling point of gluetun is that the traffic from e.g. a qbittorrent container is guaranteed to go through the VPN - this is also what one would need port forwarding for

Nice, what kind of R/W speeds do you get? I opted for 3x16 in RAID5 (ZFS)

4x12 in RAID10, or what’s your setup?
