Thank God, Google focuses on the most inane bullshit.

Ah, Plank’s constant

Hmm, that’s interesting. I’d be curious in how that would be cured and how the layers would stick together. Plaster might be interesting too since it has a faster setting period than clay.

Most clay is likely safe to ingest. However the willingness of customers to ingest clay may vary and the quantity of clay may impart a flavor on the product.

I’m also not sold on the printing process. Ceramic is strongest when the clay platelets are aligned and in a 3d printing process there are many layers. Each of the layers introduces a weak point that is likely to crack in drying or use. Ceramics already have quite efficient methods for production primarily slipcasting and extrusion. In these methods pieces are formed without “joins”.

I’m also not convinced printing it at home would be feasible for mass production/adoption.

That being said it is an interesting idea. I think you could probably make single use, unglazed, low-fire ware like Indian Bhar. Which could get recycled into aggregate. Firing adds emissions back into the process though and I’m not sure where that ranks compared to something with an existing supply chain like paper alternatives.

As a former ceramic artist I would be very wary of this solution. Bone dry clay is way too fragile to survive transportation unless very carefully packed. Potentially an air dry paper clay could work but even then it isn’t very durable.

As you mentioned in your comment, the minute bone dry clay touches liquid it starts to slake down. So you would end up with clay mush in your food and the structure would start to fall apart.

Additionally, silica dust from bone dry clay is really bad for you. Probably not very likely to effect the occasional consumer but people interacting with it often would be at an elevated risk for lung issues.

I currently use gandi but I’m planning on moving to cloudflare. Not in too much of a rush since I did a 10 year lease.

Yeah, shutdown /s /t $time_seconds

Your best bet is getting a platform your can sideload apps onto and running SmartTube

AdGuard Home and blocky are other popular options. I switched over to AdGuard Home a while back because it supported DNS over HTTPS although I’m not sure if that’s still a relevant reason. I run AGH as a docker container but it is easy to run in a LXC or VM. There’s also a tool to sync configs if you need multiple instances. Notice: AGH block lists are formatted like uBlock Origin lists so you will not be able to use PiHole style lists.

DNS based ad blockers won’t work when ads are served from the same place as the content. Which is why DNS based ad blockers don’t work against Twitch or YouTube. So YMMV.

If you’re looking to block interface ads and select streaming service ads there are block lists available like this one. The game with smart TVs is blocking the ads breaks the TV a little because sometimes it calls back to the same servers for updates and misc info like weather.

You should be able to get an ics url from the calendar sharing settings and import it into your current calendar app without needing to add the account. You won’t be able to change things from your personal account but you should be able to see events.

It’s not very expandable and very underpowered but I’ve been using an Odroid HC-4 with Armbian and a separate compute server for a while. It’s a decent budget option.

As far as I can tell a Dell small form factor and Synology idle around 15-25w and 15w respectively. Both seem to pop up to 30-45w under average load depending on what you’re doing with them. But it depends on the kind of processor you pick and additional drives will also pull more wattage.

The SFF units are limited on space. The one I have is limited to one HDD although you could put a few SATA SSDs in there and 1 nvme. The SSDs would be more expensive but lower energy use. I’ve been toying with attaching a external HDD mount to the case to see if I could add in some extra drives.

I’m not familiar with the EU/UK market, but in the US I got my used Dell for $87 from eBay. It came with 8Gb RAM and a 250Gb SSD. And it had cosmetic damage so the seller sent me a second for free :P

I think depending on how much storage you need it could be a viable alternative.

Currently I’m still using my Odroid HC4 which is probably super power efficient but limited to 2 drives and it isn’t very powerful.

The Synology units are much more user friendly out of the box though. Also I guess it depends on if you just want a NAS or if you eventually want to get into self hosting.

Just buy a used PC and the drives. You don’t have to buy them all at once since you can add drives to your RAID.

I’m headed to the store to pick up some milk and the new Arch update thumb drive, need anything?

Yup, I’ve walked into the gym dead tired after work telling myself I don’t wanna be here, I should go home. Then I hop on the bike for 10m get into it and it turns into 40m.

Over time the consistency just builds into momentum and habit.

I run a Plex container on Proxmox and have it connect to my Armbian/OMV NAS via SMB. The way I got SMB shares working was to mount them from the Proxmox host and then mount them read-only from the container. (better security ig) I’d be happy to share my configs although it might take me a couple days to pull them up.

Another alternative I’ve been thinking about is buying an external drive rack and attaching it to the outside of my server’s PC case. Then running SATA extenders but this might not be possible depending on the kind of mini PC and I’ve heard extending power can get dicey if you have more than a few drives.

This is so cool! I didn’t even know this was a thing.

I use their toaster NAS. The HC4 I think. Not the best multimedia server but it’s a serviceable file server.

Yeah they’re doing AB testing right now
