Did Compaq also start as an acquisition from a completely unrelated industry?Tandy was a leather goods company that purchased a hobby electronics chain, and started selling PC’s.

That is quite blatantly a take on Tandy, a leather company getting into the co.puter business.

In the words of Stringer Bell “Your not taking notes on a motherfucking conspiracy are you?”

Start Here I think your answer is somewhere in the IEC ELV standards.

Plus one for Ice Pirates. It gave us Space Herpes

Or, and hear me out here, get an old dell i3, and a couple 6tb hdd to run unraid, with the arr’s and plex in dockers. Then decide that’s not enough storage, so you get some 8tb drives. Then decide you need some mote space, and you might as well upgrade the chip. Plus you need a GPU to transcode, and the Dell won’t support that. So now you’ve got a fractal Define R5, Asus MOBO, Nvidia GPU, i5, 8 14tb hdd, 2 more 14 tb hdd’s for parity, 2 120gb ssd’s for cache, and noctua fans to keep the noise down. So what I’m saying is I might have a problem.

They take the waste heat from nuclear decay and convert it to electricity through the use of a peltier device. Those work off of differential temperature and are pretty inefficient to begin with. Unmderated Nuclear decay doesn’t produce a lot of heat at one time, which is why reactors use a moderator to increase the power output.

Well, I work in commercial nuclear power, and I have since 2010, so…yeah, I’m super creative.

This article has a good breakdown. The biggest issue is efficiency. RTGs are around 5-9% efficient. Standard steam cycle generators are around 30% (see this article ) . You get much more usable energy from fuel used in a commercial reactor vice a RTG.

Serverpartdeals.com for refurbished HDDs. Fractal define R5 case for the 6 14 TB HDDs and 2 SSDs for cache, a uUSB thumb drive to run unraid. Some ram, a PSU, a Mobo, and a very old quadro GPU, only a couple grand in parts and your obsession is fed, for now.

I use an Asus 86RU running Asus-Merlin. It ticks all of your boxes.

I’m not sure how I would do that. What sort of application would I use? Postgres doesn’t have a webui to log in through. So not sure how else I could test it.

Followed that guide. Got redis and postgresql14 installed. When installing immich I get an error in the log that says "error:password authentication failed for user “postgres”. I’ve trirled every combination of changing password, no passwords whatever. It never works.

Yes, but the Readme says it requires postgresql14 or 15 external. I don’t see how to set that up. I usually go through the app store that is included in unraid. Usually there are good guides but I don’t see one for this.

I use Mail in a Box running on a digital Ocean instance for like 12 USD a month.

Look for spaceinvaderone on YT. He has great tutorials for almost everything. One note of caution, the Unraid UI has evolved, so some things ma look different.

I also run Unraid with Plex, Sonarr, Radarr, Prowlarr and Overseer running as dockers. Its a great system.
