How did I miss the Mars Rover?! Just ordered it, thanks for the tip!

Thanks! I completely missed that when I looked. This is great!

Bottom nav drawer!

And is there some way to hide all previously-read items with one click? That’s something I really miss from Relay, it made the browsing experience more enjoyable. :⁠-⁠)

The protest didn’t succeed, but that just means a lot of people who were already disillusioned with Reddit and basically just trying to ignore most of the bad decisions by the admins decided that there was no point in sticking around because it clearly won’t get better.

I was a mod of a moderately sized subreddit under a different username, and a lot of the other mods I talked to said that they’re done after the 30th. Some of them, like me, already left. And while I know a lot of people like to hate on mods, in most subreddits the mods are doing a ton of work behind the scenes that keeps things on track. Without them, you’re completely correct- Reddit will get worse and worse.

It certainly can. The VMUG subscription helps out there a little, but it’s definitely a little pricey.

I run a few older things.

In my rack, I have:

• 1x 48-port POE Juniper EX220 used as a core switch with a fiber backbone to my upstairs switch; wish it was 10gig, but it was cheap and I needed ports.
• 1x Dell R720 with 2x Intel Xeon E5-2697 v2 @ 2.70GHz, 256GB RAM, and 80TB of raw storage in a RAID-5 array (64TB usable).
  • Runs ESXi with VMs for everything from vSphere to Plex to some websites I host myself.
• 1x Dell R710 with 2x Intel X5650 @ 2.67GHz, 40GB RAM, and 24 TB of raw storage.
  • Currently unconfigured since I recently migrated off of this server to the R720.
• 1x Dell R610 with 2x Intel 5550s, 96GB RAM, and no drives.
  • Got this on a whim, planned to use it for a project, never got to it, now it sits on the bottom of my rack and reminds me of my folly.

Upstairs I have another 48-port Juniper EX220, and I plan to fill most of the ports with 4+ Ethernet drops to every room in my house, plus extras for WAPs, cameras, and remote sensors.
I also use Ruckus R710s for wireless connectivity; I have two right now, and plan to eventually get one of the outdoor-rated Ruckus WAPs to mount on my chimney since WiFi coverage gets a little sparse when you get halfway across my yard.

I was remarking to a friend the other day that I’ve managed to build myself a pretty stellar setup for the early 2010s, at a fraction of the cost it would have taken back then. Though it definitely eats lots of power!
