17:30:31 <AnomicBSD> good morning nerds
17:51:39 <m1ari> Hello AnomicBSD 
18:26:29 <AnomicBSD> i got OmniOS pilled recently by a youtube video. the zones caught my interest pretty hard. Just got done with setting up a vm of Omni and got a minecraft server running in a zone. thoroughly impressed. might have to redesign my homelab to put OmniOS as my host OS
18:30:51 <m1ari> OmniOS (and Illumos more generally) seems to be a bit of a well kept secret, It's the sort of thing I'd look at first for storage / virtualisation.
18:32:55 <AnomicBSD> yea i stumbled across it on "You Suck At Programming" youtube channel along with "Stephen's Machine Room".
19:04:31 <danmcd> for reference:  https://kebe.com/blog/?tag=HDC
19:04:45 <danmcd> I *was* going to build HDC 4.0 this year, but DDR5 RAM prices, and honestly, this is the
19:05:12 <danmcd> first 6-years-later upgrade cycle where the one that's 6 years old still actually does everything I need it to and then some, modulo bad case design,
19:05:25 <danmcd> has me doing a mobo transplant for "HDC 3.5" instead.
19:23:03 <sommerfeld> I lucked out on the timing of my upgrade cycle.   
19:29:15 <danmcd> NGL I'm looking forward to (hopefully permanently) relief from some of the HDD problems I had early-on with the HDC 3 build.
19:30:01 <danmcd> Of course if it's mobo SATA problems then I'm still screwed but at least I'll get confirmation it's not "case designed for SSDs shouldn't have both 3.5 HDD slots filled".
