My parents showed me the episodes of TNG that didn’t have any content they objected to and taught a moral lesson. Most episodes have a moral lesson so I got to watch most of TNG before I was an adult. I have since then watched most of the available Star Trek content out there outside of anything TOS. I may find it in me to watch TOS but I’ve been hesitant to go back before TNG because that show is special to me.

TrueNAS will be moving away from Kubernetes/Helm charts to Docker/Docker compose in Electric Eel TrueNAS Scale builds and on. You might want to reconsider this move unless you are gonna stay on an old build of TrueNAS. Not sure what is going on with TrueNAS Core. There are other NAS OS options too.

My experience with migrating data varies dependent on the app. I don’t have experience with Navidrome so I can’t really help there. Using in-app tools to migrate to a new implementation usually has the best results when working with networked data with metadata in a DB.

I actually just upgraded my Dell Optiplex 990 SFF to a new full ATX case and had to get a new motherboard. Dell does some funky stuff to their motherboard to get it to fit into their custom cases. For instance the CPU cooler clipped into the case through the motherboard This was one of the ways the motherboard was secured into the case. The other mount points were entirely non-standard so no other case would fit. I did consider making some modifications to the case with a hacksaw before deciding to just get a new case and motherboard. The new Motherboard was pretty cheap because I was using a 4th-gen intel i3. Not great specs but good enough for a homebrew NAS.

I watched the intro during the first season of every series. After that I generally skipped the intro. I found out they actually re-recorded/remixed the Enterprise intro somewhere late in the series when I was late to click the skip intro button. It still sucks and I hate it.

I have enough money for an angle grinder and a new used graphics card. But not a fancy new case.

This is an absolute winner IMHO. I’m imagining all the hotkeys that are accidentally activated when a CPU-intensive task spins up.

Are there any other common factors between these bad experiences? Sounds like family dynamics are doing at least some of the work that is making these situations bad.

I really wanna see “you just can’t unfuck that couch” take off as a pop culture revision of “the cat is out of the bag” or “you can’t put toothpaste back in the tube”.

I can’t imagine what it’s like taking him to the airport.

I have had the same problem with Powerbeats Pro and Beats Fit Pro. The case uses two small pogo pins in each earbud slot to provide power. These provide the tolerance required to make a good contact with the earbud which is held in place by magnets. These pogo pins are the problem. I periodically use a microfiber cloth moistened with a bit of isopropyl alcohol to clean the earbud slots with focus on these pogo pins. Make sure to move the pins up and down with your cleaning motion. My thinking is that the alcohol will clear out any earwax or other gunk that has built up around the pogo pin and is preventing it from coming back up to full height. I haven’t had this issue recur since adjusting my cleaning habit to include the alcohol on the pins. Pogo pins do use a spring to function so like all springs it will eventually lose some of its resistance and will need to be replaced. Since these small electronics are not made to be repaired, that means buying a new pair, most likely. However, I recently replaced one Beats Fit Pro with a new pair after almost four years of near daily use. I’m pretty impressed with how far these wireless earbuds have come since the first generation.

I use Netbox. It’s built by the team at Digital Ocean for managing their infrastructure. It can run in a docker container for easy management and compatibility. You can use as few or as many features as you need. There are a lot of native features and if there’s something missing you can extend functionality with plugins. I use the plugin netbox-topology-views to visualize my physical and logical network maps. This may be overkill for most home labs or home networks.
