What's your server wattage?

I'm in the process of wiring a home before moving in and getting excited about running 10g from my server to the computer. Then I see 25g gear isn't that much more expensive so I might was well run at least one fiber line. But what kind of three node ceph monster will it take to make use of any of this bandwidth (plus run all my...

I have a small setup for some self hosted apps and media.

  • Beelink Mini S.
  • 2 external 5TB drives.
  • A USB fan used as an exhaust because the SSD inside gets a bit warm.

I think total power is about 30W.

Spotify is raising the cost of Premium subscriptions, again (www.engadget.com)

Spotify is officially raising its Premium subscription rates in the US come July, following reports of the move in April. The platform is increasing its Individual plan from $11 to $12 monthly and its Duo plan from $15 to $17 monthly — the same jump as last year's $1 and $2 price hikes, respectively. However, its Family plan...

DjMeas ,

Are you saying Deemix only downloads at 128kbps? If so, I've been using it as well and download in FLAC. Also, I pay for the family plan which is $15.99/month.

Edit: Ah, I'm guessing you're not on a paid Deezer plan.

DjMeas ,

I use Deezer's family plan that includes FLAC/HiFi for $15.99/month.

DjMeas ,

Thank you, friend. You've convinced me to restart my phone.

Whenever I hit paywalled articles, I have Gemini summarize it for me. Here's what I got:

This is an article about a flaw in a password manager. It discusses a man named Michael who lost access to his bitcoin wallet. The password manager he used generated a weak password. Researchers were able to crack the password because of this weakness. They used the date and time the password was created to guess it. Michael was able to recover his bitcoin wallet.

DjMeas ,

Good call. For the commenter above: https://archive.ph/nVy4s

DjMeas ,

The last panel is so great!

Where in California are you? Here in SoCal with SCE their PRIME Time Of Use plan is $0.26/kWH from 9PM - 4PM. Totally works for my family since we work from home and drive EVs locally. We also have a 2019 Prius which gets us about 50-55 MPG and 500+ miles on a full tank for longer drives.

Edit: I should add that the standard Time Of Use plan is $0.38/kWH from 9PM - 4PM. Peak hour usage from 4PM - 9PM is somewhere between $0.53 - $0.62/kWh I think.

We mainly charge our car overnight and it works out well for us.

DjMeas ,

Ouch!! That is brutal. Do you see a lot of EVs on the road there?

When life gives you lemons, urine trouble.

This is a great example of the rude way to use that phrase.

US sues Apple for illegal monopoly over smartphones (www.theverge.com)

The US Department of Justice and 16 state and district attorneys general accused Apple of operating an illegal monopoly in the smartphone market in a new antitrust lawsuit. The DOJ and states are accusing Apple of driving up prices for consumers and developers at the expense of making users more reliant on its iPhones.

I think the point though is you might be able to connect a Garmin to your iPhone but only Apple Watches get special access to certain APIs because "security".

DjMeas ,

Fun concept!

DjMeas ,

This reminds me of KFC and how they switch from "Honey" to "Honey Sauce".

I'm using it at work as well and Copilot has been pretty decent with writing out entire methods when I start with the jsdoc or code comments before writing the actual method. It's now becoming my habit to have it generate some near-working code or decent boilerplate.

If you haven't tried it yet, give this a shot!

I loved being able to open up Assistant to quickly summarize an article for me, but Gemini requires me to also attach the URL to its context and then type/say "Summarize" and then hit the submit button only to wait longer for the summary.

The only pro I can think about is that I can continue to ask for details about or related to the article.
