I have a couple of orangepi 5+'s that replaced a large, loud, power hungry server. with an attached nvme drive, iscsi connected over 2.5gbit ethernet, 8 cores, and 32gb of ram, they are quite capable. one is the primary database, anot

I lacto-ferment hot sauce on a regular basis (and give most of it away). my go-to brine is by weight, which eliminates a bunch of issues: * 400g water * 26g salt this makes for a great brine without trying to estimate or "taste" i

I managed to find a couple in my price range, as low as $-0.80 each (free with a rebate of 80 cents) - once you've messed with it a few times, there appear to be some bugs with the math as you might of noticed.

aha, that would explain the distinction, my 3rd party RF lenses are all manual focus. my favorite of the latest crop has been a 50mm f/1.4 tilt lens, manual focus of course.
