I built a server a few years ago in a Fractal Design Node (big square box) which has 4 6TB drives in raid 5 for 18TB of storage and a 6 core AMD cpu. It cost around £1200 and half of that was the hard drives.

It’s been really good, so if you’re looking to build one yourself I’d recommend having a look at the case and the price of drives.

There’s a brexit joke in there somewhere

(quoting from wikipedia) In 2023 a group of engineers modified a dynometer to be able to measure how much horsepower a horse can produce. This horse was measured to 5.7 hp (4.3 kW)

Fucks sake Xander

Don’t conflate the art style with the engine

Smiling with the mouth isn’t a universal expression, different animals express happiness in different ways

It’s only September, are you ok?

Hmm, the fact that they specifically prohibit even WAPs is going to be a problem too. Do you have the earlier conversation in writing? I’d go back to whoever you spoke to before and ask them about it.

Looks like that tos is just for the wifi network, if you’ve got an ethernet port then that won’t be using the wifi.

Inkscape works well for this.

I like Ukraine’s delivery method better

Forever: until we decide that we no longer want to maintain the product, rendering it useless and forcing you to by whatever we replace it with

It will be much cheaper for the company to replace rather than repair, then they don’t have to pay technicians

The fault was a driver, so if the faulty driver loaded at boot the machine would bsod again. If the machine got network before the driver loaded there was a chance that it could download and install the fixed driver

Hard to roll back when you’re stuck in a boot loop

In the real world I very rarely jump down multiple meter drops, am seldom asked to fight zombies or skeletons, and have a lot of supporting infrastructure that ensures that I am fed regularly. Minecraft has such a lot of ways to die.

You’d probably be better off picking a normal distro and then running QEMU to run Windows or other VMs. Proxmox is more comparable to VMware ESXi in that it is designed for running server VMs and managed through a web ui.

When you say you want to use proxmox as your daily driver, what sort of things are you wanting to do with it? Are you going to be spending most of your time inside a WM, and want to be able to switch to a different VM? I’m struggling to see your use case.
