Hey thanks for the advice! Proxmox and TrueNAS seem to be what I should be looking into. Flashing with Rufus I'm familiar enough with, so that I can do. The one thing I don't have is an out of the way place to put it 🫤 without any drives it didn't make any noise, but I imagine that all comes from the drives doing their thing.

Thanks for the encouragement! To be honest, while it was a good place to start from its hand holding, I don't love synology for how walled garden it is. I'll definitely take a look at TrueNAS and see what that's like.

Also with lots of lead.

Same, I just switched over to them and have had a good experience with it.

That's exactly what Russia has wanted since the cold war "ended". That said, I honestly don't know how we heal from this. A third of the country is bat shit crazy, and the sane among us are never going to join in their fascism. I think Balkanization is, for better or worse, in our future.

Assuming we don't all blow ourselves up first.

It's gotten so much better since 2008. Ubuntu is good for servers, but probably not what you're looking for on a desktop. And you really don't need to have a coding background to use it, though it also depends on your use case.

The further NE you go in the US the more non-rhotic the dialect becomes, more or less.

Yeah, no idea on the pros and cons of dollar coins, just that they'll never take off while there are still bills circulating.

But never with taking away the bills. Get rid if the bills and force the coins and voilà.

Ugh, we're not even. We're using the US customary system, which uses the British words but aren't the same values as British Imperial values. They're actually pegged to the metric system, so if the definition of a kilometer changed, so would the definition of a mile.

We're using metric with extra steps. Not to mention certain products are already in metric, and everything else has the metric on it already.

You shouldn't hesitate. And some USians would like to join you in eradicating the fascists.
