Maybe one of these?

On AliExpress: 12.7mm USB 2.0 DVD/CD-ROM Case , IDE/ PATA to SATA Optical Drive External Enclosure For Laptop https://a.aliexpress.com/_Evga3Y0

Looks like a high density IDE connector.

I’d shop around for similar products, not sure if you need USB, SATA or just big IDE.

I’m not trying to change anyone’s mind, I’m just putting forward my observations, it’s clear you have your own views and that’s fine.

Let’s just agree to disagree then.

There is so much vested interest though, capitalism has already been past the point of failure, and then measures were introduced to prolong it’s life, easy credit, moving away from the gold standard, others to numerous to mention, moving us from a monetary system based on tangeable wealth/assets to our current situation where it all hangs on hype and speculation. But again supply and demand only works if there’s demand, if nobody has any money then demand drys up.

Again he’s not pointing the finger, he’s merely saying it’s working as designed, either way AI is one of the current hypes propping up the system so he’s unlikely to point the finger there too.

He isn’t quoted as saying that he thinks this is terrible though. To me it reads as “that’s how capitalism works” in the same way the industrial revolution rewrote the rule book etc. There will need to be a market adjustment people will lose their jobs but the system will survive. Whereas I think it’ll be such a seismic shift in a short time the whole thing will cease to function.

He doesn’t say it’s a problem, just that that’s how it works. My prediction is it will collapse under its own weight.

How? If everyone loses their jobs nobody has any spare income. Therefore nobody buys anything they don’t need and cut back what they do need to the bone. Share price tanks because everyone stopped buying stuff. Capitalism collapses. The whole thing only works when there’s a customer, credit has been filling the income gap for years but if there’s no hope of repayment then nobody will get credit. I just hope it takes the tech giants long that I and the people I care about don’t have to deal with the fallout.

Some way to flag a car to “move on” might be good if it’s the parking spot in front of your house, it could influence the algorithm by making that spot less desirable compared to other locations when the parking decision is made, maybe this demotion would only last a few days/weeks.

Are they good at avoiding parking in places that would block driveways and things? Would a way to submit more detailed mapping data to help avoid access problems?

Are the cameras always needed to be on? I think it should be safe enough to turn them off once parked? Maybe firing them up again if movement is detected in a few metre radius (collision and vandalism protection) I assume they have mmwave motion detection type sensors. I know this type of tech is a privacy nightmare but I do feel corporate laziness (amongst other things) makes it worse.

The dual stack firmware was deprecated because of issues, I believe.

Vaguely remember that the dual stack firmware wasn’t being developed anymore and was deprecated.

So next I’d be checking logs for sata errors, pcie errors and zfs kernel module errors. Anything that could shed light on what’s happening. If the system is locking up could it be some other part of the server with a hardware error, bad ram, out of memory, bad or full boot disk, etc.

The drives in the zpool, are they SMR drives? Slow write speed and disks dropping out are a symptom of I remember correctly

It’s not just the poor level of pay, it’s also the crippling workload and lack of progression. Beyond a certain point your only way to progress up the pay scale is to move into the middle management of schools, which becomes less and less actual teaching, so to get slightly more reasonable pay you have to sacrifice the reason you got into teaching in the first place. For the teachers I know who’ve quit though, they could never be paid enough to get back into teaching, the workload and stress, the lack of backup with agressive pupils, hostile work environement generally (multiple people have said the kids are bad for bullying, but the staff are worse). We need to look at teaching in other countries and take note, because they way we’ve set it up isn’t working.

You can literally see the pound signs in his eyes.

Keep it simple, use Miniflux

It’d be fantastic to get some drink brewing hardware together that actually supports this standard, that’d be the real icing on the cake. Are you aware of any people putting something together?

Criminal does immoral thing, imagine that! The issue is that the data isn’t being stored securely in the first place. If it’s not encrypted the game is over as soon as they steal it the data. More needs to be done to ensure the safe storage of this highly sensitive information, and sorting as little of it as possible in as few places as possible. Schools are not equipped to handle this data themselves it needs to be entrusted to an entity (private/government/whomever) that has the time and expertise to keep it securely and properly manage secure access when needed.

I had issues getting Prowlarr to connect to many sites at all. Jackett just works and has a huge list of working sites, however syncing them all up in the other arr services is a pain which is where https://github.com/AllergicDuck/jackett-sync-ts comes in.

I am, absolutely, less intimidating. Remember there are literally dozens of us.

Only now the government has earned a couple of years of interest on it all. I’d like to see that windfall paid forward to the people of Ukraine too.

If they could just help big distros package binaries that’d be great. I was unable to use their handy dandy installer to install on Debian 11 a couple of months ago, been meaning to try again now Debian 12 is available.
