Do not threaten them with a good time

I tried a couple of times with Jen ai and local llama, but somehow does not work that well for me.

But at the same time i have a 9070xt, so, not exactly optimal

So is not on this rack. OK because for a second I was thinking somehow you were able to run ai tasks with some sort of small cluster.

I have nowadays a 9070xt on my system. I just dabbled on this, but until now I havent been that successful. Maybe I will read more into it to understand better.

I have a question about ai usage on this: how do you do this? Every time I see ai usage some sort of 4090 or 5090 is mentioned, so I am curious what kind of ai usage you can do here

I am using them on a small storage box (around 2tb) and I am quite happy with it. One of the things that I particularly liked is the documentation. If you have a use case for rsync, Borg backup or others, it’s probably covered in their documentation (plus, never had an outage or issue with my data). I didn’t use their support at this point, but ibheard good things about it as well.

2 you say? That is 2 more the amount I actually have of real friends

That is for sure a good gap solution. It depends a lot on the space we are talking, and more critically, number of concurrent devices connected. For some use cases converting routers to APS is for sure good enough.

You can use on any computer really (with network connections of course).

I use on a minisforum PC with 2 NICs attached to it. For this solution is usually needed APs (which tends to be better in general, just more expensive). There are people that even use opnsense with proxmox (which is a VERY advanced use case) to have the machine for more things.

One interesting detail: with opnsense you can actually have on the same machine adguard for DNS installed as a service for opnsense (and use opnsense to actually force all DNS to to there, as long is not doh, but that is a bit of a different story).

I checked their page and I have now a personal license. I am going later to try to find out how it works, so we will see

That sounds like a crazy story to find out what the issue was. As I stated somewhere on the thread, ram is not the issue, and the APS are quite new (Aruba stuff that is 1 and a half year old). And the only situation I get this issues is with my phones in specific. I will probably use the smb solution stated before and see how is goes. If the thing still happens, then is hunting time

That is something I can totally do after I figure out this syncthing thing. Probably will use Borg backup but same principle applies

Finished an all nighter memtest with a total of 12 passes. All good on the ram side

That is some crazy story right there. I do know for a fact that memtest needs multiple passes. But in my case the machine only has 1 stick of ram (used to have 2, one died). I will probably do a memtest overnight and get at you tomorrow.

That is some good info here. My HDD is totally fine (checked it very recently actually), as for the ram last time I checked was ok, but can check again to be sure

Great question. I forgot to mention but at this point syncthing is only accessible on my WiFi at home. No VPN to it and no remote locations.

From what I see, kopia is for the desktop. Unless I didn’t see something, it is not available for android, which is where more important to have backup in my case

Never tried unison or resilio can check. As for seafile, that is what I had before. At some point I realized I was getting several issues with desktop mostly, and the storage was only accessible from seafile wich in my case I am not OK with. Mostly was the inconsistencies between oses

I could try to do that, but I simply do not have reproducible steps that are certain to make the problem happen. I am a developer myself, and I absolutely despise when someone says ‘hey, something random happened the other day. I cannot say what are the steps, but it is there’ just to find out in the end nothing is there, or is simply not reproducible no matter what and for reasons that I might never find out

This is an interesting one, will check. Thanks! I do have some smb stuff already on the machine, so this might be an easier solution

From what I tried, next cloud just has so much clutter that makes the syncing part a bit of a slog. If that was rock solid with OK speeds, that would be nice. But there is somich stuff with it that I don’t care and tries to enforce (like users and user groups) that I find just too much
