No. He's stupid. Never had a functioning mind, he's been substituting money for one all along.

All of that was over people fighting about feeding a carnivore pet plant based pet food? You're f*cking kidding me right?

I'm just over here wanting a "just the fucking email I signed up for" option, or an "opt out of additional bullshit you didn't ask for" button. Heck, throw in a "disallow any APIs for "AI" permanently button.

I wonder what life is like with an IQ that low. I thought dumb people were supposed to be cheery but I guess not.

There's a word for software that does actions without the user's permission or knowledge.

That word is MALWARE

The SMART thing to do is to buy a DUMB TV. Pay a little more and get a real TV- you know. A display, with speakers and HDMI inputs. Nothing else.

15 years ago HP was among the best in the business. They made workhorse products that did millions of pages (and those old models continue to)

Today HP is a malware and telemetry company who won't let the average consumer use their printer without a logged-in HP account slurping telemetry about every aspect of their lives. Any consumer who buys a printer with the letter "e" in the model number is paying money to be spied on. Anyone who buys a non-"e" model is still doing so, but in a less VISUALLY obvious, and obnoxious way.

This is not random assumption. I'm a tech. Anyone who buys an HP Printer today and asks me to install them gets a fast education on why they shouldn't cut the packing tape on that box.

Buy Brother.

Not long after installing/subscribing, was suggested to update. Since then I've had the app crash when opening.

In case anyone else happens to see the same issue- at least for the time being, uninstalling/reinstalling seems to have done the trick.

Got a new Zimaboard yesterday, running through using it to migrate the Plex workload off of my Synology NAS- but running in to a strange issue.

When mounting the NAS (which I'm still using for the storage of my media) everythiing works great, authenticates with a user I created just for it, finds the shares and displays them correctly, but entering any of the shares, they "appear" to be empty in CasaOS's file browser, which of course they're not.

Things I've tested- connected to my NAS with that same user credential in a VM, shares appear/work correctly. User has read/write permissions inside those folders.

Triple-checked file permissions on the NAS- all good from test VM.

Updated the Zimaboard's Debian OS from SSH, updated CasaOS afterward. Rebooted numerous times.

Anyone here familiar with CasaOS that ships on Zimaboard who might be able to enlighten me?

I do a lot of VMWare work but I'd like to tinker with proxmox at home- I just don't want to bring an awful old HPE server/etc home to try it out on-

Anyone have any reccomendations for a quiet, small homelab server with a solid (12-16 thread) core count?
