I was thinking of buying a Synology system. I was actually looking at prices this past week.
That being said, I’ve got an old 2019 desktop running Windows that is coming to the end of its support, that I was considering making a Linux machine.
How complex is making a roll-your-own NAS?
Please explain what qualities they demonstrate that make them leftward.
Is “far left” an accurate description? They are not really what I consider “left” at all.

I remember in the 90 or maybe 00s a study coming out that said vaccine scepticism was about even between liberals and conservatives.
Yeah, dumb liberals with their dumb vaccines and pasteurized milk and fluoridated water and science. 🙄
Bold optimism that the USA will last 100 of any time unit.
Pete, we know you’re a big softie inside.
Right. The Fediverse is the PBS of the social media.
“It’s made possible by people like you.” Is it worth a few dollars a month? Yes!
I’m planning on it.
I tried a rest run with Kubuntu on an old laptop I had, and it runs 95% flawlessly. My biggest issue is my new Brother printer that I’m trying to install connected to Wi-Fi. The system sems to know it’s there, but then doesn’t seem to install the drivers. My Android phone prints there just fine.
Yum! I’ll be right over!
I found this recipe for Chickpea Masala a few days ago, and it’s fucking delicious. Also, its time and effort is pretty low. I might be able to make it stoned. Not quite as fast and easy as microwaved, but pretty damn close. Faster than driving to fucking Applebee’s and getting a table.

Not OP, but what do you do with the leftover potato scoops? Do you save it for eating later?
These guys are good. Have they thought about working on a browser with no AI bullshit? It seems like there may be a market for that
It’s a wonder they remember Gmail to get their email.

My local Madison insurance is forming a steering committee and has created an LLC. (I’m a member of the committee.) We will solicit donations, because mostly it has been one guy paying for a small regional instance of about 100 AU.
We think of it like public broadcasting, like PBS. I will be happy to kick in a few dollars per month to pay for it. We have contests, online meetups, and other fun. It’s not just Mastodon, it’s an active regional online community, and it’s worth it.
(I also donate to my Lemmy instance, because it’s worth it too!)
Spread the good word!
I think the reason might be money. There’s very little money in, “Here’s some free salvation for you!”
