I bought a secondhand 6-bay for around 100 euro and put openwrt on it, mdadm is perfect for the job. Check whether the system is easy to root beforehand. I had to do it via a hardware serial connection on the motherboard.

I wonder whether we’ll see the same parallel as with cars: those with tech and those without - old-timers. I only code as a hobby anymore. Burnout destroyed my career and now I design PCBs and write embedded software without LLMs.

Dreaming stopped for me after being put on Trazodone. In some the medication induces nightmares or vivid dreams, not for me. I can testify that dreams contribute a lot to the perceived quality of sleep. In recent months I've had a few
