I know it’s an LTS version, but 5.15 is not exactly a new kernel release. It’s EOL next year. I’ve been on the 6 series kernel since switching from Windows, and have yet to have anything break on update.

Edit: also, that kernel release is less than a year after the 6800 xt was released. I’d imagine that newer kernels would have a whole bunch of bug fixes.

What about tomato soup?

Yes, because nobody ever took their drink to go after finishing their meal.

It could still be very much middle class. Parents make it out of nostalgia from when they were kids, instead of making it out of necessity.

The odd time I end up eating fast food and getting a paper straw, it’s the fact that it goes mushy before I finish my drink. I think that’s the texture issue people are talking about.

Huh, who’d of thought Genuine Leather would branch out into the tech industry.

There is for now. Microsoft is working on closing the various loopholes.

True, but most consumers aren’t doing bulk storage. Most people just have cell phone and laptop

Gotta keep them on their toes.

Hard drives are going to be one of those in between things that Gen x/millennials will understand, but were already obsolete by the time Gen z rolled around.

I think a substantial part of the problem is the employee turnover rates in the industry. It seems to be just accepted that everyone is going to jump to another company every couple years (usually due to companies not giving adequate raises). This leads to a situation where, consciously or subconsciously, noone really gives a shit about the product. Everyone does their job (and only their job, not a hint of anything extra), but they’re not going to take on major long term projects, because they’re already one foot out the door, looking for the next job. Shitty middle management of course drastically exacerbates the issue.

I think that’s why there’s a lot of open source software that’s better than the corporate stuff. Half the time it’s just one person working on it, but they actually give a shit.

Like other people have said, it’s going to depend on what you want to do with the NAS. If it’s going to be a pure NAS (ie network storage only), then using onboard will be fine. If you plan on doing other things (home assistant, media server, etc), I recommend going the virtual machine + HBA route.

What’s stopping you from using it for soup?

That’s a suspiciously specific guess.

Did you reply to the wrong comment? I only implied that rich people would probably hire a prostitute of some form, rather than buy a sex toy. What does that have to do with the specific type of sex workers that Robert Kraft chose to visit?

One of the biggest parts of the problem is that corporate management types can’t quantify experience and skill. This leads to them thinking of projects purely in terms of man-hours, and they cannot comprehend that not all man-hours are equal. It’s an issue that plagues a lot of industries.

You talking “rich” as in “doing pretty well, financially” or “rich” as in “truely wealthy”? Because at some point, I’d imagine that the rich person would just hire a “housekeeper”.

I used a hodge-podge of chinesium parts and leftover drives to create a DAS system that hooks up to an HBA via DAC. I’m actually kinda surprised how stable it’s all been.

For future reference, there is the OpenLinkHub project that does RGB control for just about all Corsair products, and fan control if using one of the Corsair fan controllers. In my case, I needed it because RGB, but also in order to have my fan speed based on water temperature instead of CPU load.
