hey guys historically which day during the black friday sales has the best deals? cybermonday?

shell nacelle
#

Well there's probably gonna be a bunch of flash sales once WAN starts

wide gyro
#

Noob question, what would be the best way to get a discord notification when the wanshow starts?
YT just does not notify me.
Enable notification on the ltt-releses announcer in discord?

brittle moon
#

that wont send push notifications though (itll only notify if you have discord open), and the message in there is usually a few minutes delayed

#

outside of that, twitch notifications are more reliable than youtube's, but that'll notify for the pre-show too

#

there are more options if those wont work for you too, lmk

wide gyro
#

I can live with a few minutes delay

solar glacier
#

ifttt to the rescue!
oh wait it's not 2016

wide gyro
#

Uuh so i'm not seeing the wanshow-live channel in the list anyware.
Am I missing something?

neat hedge

Yes

I get the badge for WANShow going live, but not a ding.. so I just leave the tab open..

no actual notif though because they don't do that for large servers

No updates anywhere. Nothing on floatplane, YT, or Twitch. It honestly feels pretty dismissive considering they know how many people are waiting

I know they are always late, but it's annoying and they have been slipping in terms of engagement quality for some time now.

I love the crew I'm mostly just venting

#

but still frustrated

unborn pendant
restive rain
#

cant really help if a shoot goes over

woeful crescent
#

I haven't had any complaints.. I mean most of it would be because Luke is on a tight timeline to getting out most days.. so no more starting 2hrs late and running for 4hrs..

wicked flame
tiny nimbus
#

Problem these days is Luke has a set time that he has to leave to medicate his birds, so the later they start the shorter the show

restive rain
#

thats the real shame

they did the same with ratcheting screwdriver

restive rain
#

and it went fine

neat kiln
#

I'm out of the loop on a lot, that wan show actually does catch me on news

woeful crescent
#

Its funny that ifixit dropped them considering they still get mentioned a lot.. I mean even if LTT makes a competing product, having them advertise YOUR product is better than not.. but alas.. also the ifixit ceo seemed to be a little more angry than strategic about it..

wicked flame
#

Drivers were a meme already by that point. People were just desperate to get them. and they just happened to be amazing, and really scale interest.

#

Meme as in the hilarious nature of delays in build up. Linus will Linus.

#

To be clear I ADORE there stuff. As well as there philosophy on product dev.

#

LMG had no issue, but the ifixit CEO took a few swips at LMG on socials

neat kiln
#

but again i don't see most of anything outside of wan show

tiny nimbus
#

Linus mentioned an email he got from iFixit but didn't go into specifics

woeful crescent
#

Along with deciding not to continue the sponsorship

tiny nimbus
#

Jeff Geerling reached out for comment and got a BS "we're reevaulating our sponsors, we want to teach the world to solder" response

woeful crescent

He for sure seemed bitter about it..

interesting.
I'm need to teach half of r/consolerepair how to replace an hdmi port correctly because god...

Oh right

I bought the non xl

shell nacelle

It requires M3/M5 Screw bits so IDK if LTT has those

I mean they do give you the tools but yeah

Also I did have a task rabbit guy help me out the entire time so it went smoother than if I just did it by myself

#

Using their powerdrill was like super useful

I purchased the assembly service since it was available in my area

So hopefully should go smoothly

Was so hard to find a one piece standing desk tabletop

This is my first experience with a sit to stand desk and holy shit it actually really does make a difference

Also keep in mind only select parts of the underside of the desk are actually magnetic

So if you plan on putting anything underneath

There's a point to be said about people that can't find communities otherwise.
The about the minority of people that are LGBT+. It's hard to find others like you especially if the environment you're in is hostile to you

shell nacelle
#

Like with current Gen Social Media like so ingrained into their culture yeah this would have a lot of consequences

#

And yeah people will always find a way to bypass these restrictions

neat kiln
#

You can tell when people aren't part of the LGBT+ community when they react to laws like this

shell nacelle
#

Like react negatively or positively to this?

woeful crescent
#

I get what Aus is trying to do, but I get Linus's issue too.. I mean even as a kid in the late 90's/2000's, a large part of my social circle was partially, or even exclusively, over MSN, IRC, etc.. so these days lots of peoples social circle are of people who they can't just call, meet up with, etc.. And this is even a bigger thing with marginalized groups where its hard to find similar people who share your issues..

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GH0_8itTPgY Sponsored by the site hes reviewing was an interesting decision.. (though I trust j2c, and his point of testing the marketplace side is different than trusting stuff directly from Jawa) .. also funny how he learned it if from Scrapyard Wars :p

Many people have not heard about Jawa, a marketplace specifically for PCs, PC Components and peripheral devices... but is it a safe place to buy from? https://jawa.link/J2CNov24

Since android 15 release Multiple sections of the fitbit app have been unusable. Currently 4 weeks without any official word that they are even looking into it. Mods on their own forum has been merging any posts into a thread which is marked as resolved but it far from isn't. The original poster has marked it unresolved but they keep marking it as resolved again.

This is a link to the community thread.

https://community.fitbit.com/t5/Android-App/Pixel-phones-Recent-and-Frequent-food-have-their-tops-cropped-off-at-the/td-p/5689678/jump-to/first-unread-message

The Store page is being flooded with 1 star reviews that they are auto responding to with canned responses that do nothing (telling you to log out and back in)
Ill add a couple of screenshots at the bottom to show you the problem. The top of most pages appear cut off. think it is due to the Screen usage changes in android 15.

Sorry if I have waffled to much. The fitbit community are hoping some external pressure may at least get them to acknowledge the problem.

New crypto scam, this time hawk tuah girl did a rug pull.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JKGT6T4R3Pg

After a disastrous and loss heavy token launch, the "tokenomics" of the "Hawk Tuah" coin have come to light, showcasing one of the worst rug pulls in the meme driven crypto world so far.

With insiders raking in millions, average community members losing their savings, and one of the most embarrassing responses I think I've ever seen from a Cry...

To be fair, and I HOPE this is true, I have a feeling the phone number they called was the one linked to the domain name.. that said, they should have used the sites actual contact page, and second, if they did call once they knew it wasn't the site owner they shoulda shut up, and lastly, when they called, it should have been to say WE fucked up, not youre damaging our rep by telling the world what we did..

#

Honestly initially I didn't blame Funko much, sure it was on their behalf, but they hired a company to do a job, that company fucked up, itch.io's domain company also fucked up.. if Funko peeps woke up today and said Oh Fuck, we'll make this right and see it doesn't happen again.. I'd have been water under the bridge..

I agreed with Linus in large part with the criticism of HexOS, but I still don't see the price being reasonable.
He talked about how the price is based on how much it costs to make it, but you don't have per license manufacturing costs in the same way as with a physical products. If the pricing was more reasonable you would more likely see more people actually buying it now and in the future. Having more customers could in the end bring in more money than charging fewer people for more.
If this would be enterprise software, I would totally get the pricing as one would be profiting from it, but isn't this consumer focused? I've spend way less than 300$ on my NAS that has 5TB usable storage. A license to the OS costs more than the entire NAS ffs

#

If price is too high, people won't buy it, and the project dies

true bison

#

Wait didn't someone else first comment "HexOS isn't an OS it's just an overlay for TrueNAS" and then Linus responded to that well then SteamOS is just an overlay to Arch

#

HexOS is definitely an OS

#

I don't see why someone is even arguing that it's not

I'm not saying it should be free, I'm saying that the 300$ price tag is unreasonable

Hi. I was just watching the today's (Dec 13, 2024) Show and had to capture this picture at 34:08. Please don't go too far with it!

#

On top of that if you look at the world of tech, it's vast. Not everyone has the time, motivation, or desire to learn another full time job.

civic swallow
#

300$ is cheap? I'm not sure if I'm just too broke to see that but that's definitely not cheap

civic swallow
#

I'd see the majority seeing the 300$ price tag on top of the hardware cost and just saying fuck it and going with a mainstream cloud provider

#

If you're building the NAS from used parts you could definitely get a second NAS for that 300$

#

I mean ofc you won't do anything with an other NAS if you can't use the software

#

But I don't see the value of the software being 300$

#

I'd definitely see many tech-intrested people and maybe myself using this software if the license cost was lower

#

And also would probably buy multiple licenses over the years

#

But let's say I'd need to build two NASes, that would already be 600$ just in software

#

That's what a budget gaming PC costs brand new

#

100$ pre-tax would be a price I'd see a lot of people being able to spend

desert copper
#

But the average person who is looking into a nas already knows it'll be pricey unless they have the time to learn the ins and outs. Which is why Synology is so successful. And that shit is expensive

civic swallow
#

A couple terabytes of HDDs and an old optiplex won't be expensive

#

Let's say a 4TB HDD is like 90$ and you get two of those for a RAID1/mirror configuration, you'd still have 120โ‚ฌ to find an optiplex to fit into that 300$ figure. Than double that price to get the software

#

Your 300$ NAS now costs 600$ cause of the ridiculous software pricing

#

At that point why even bother building a NAS? Just go buy one of those premade Synology or Western Digital NASes

frozen agate
# civic swallow 300$ is cheap? I'm not sure if I'm just too broke to see that but that's definit...

(context, $99 license buyer)
cheap, no, but expensive? definitely not for something you entrust your data to.

Personally, I work a long work week, dont have time to do all my own hobbies and tasks, nevermind spending the time to learn how ZFS works and which RAID profile is the most optimal for my drive layout. I just want it to work, and I want a comparatively high performance system, instead of some cheapo intel pentium in a trench coat system that is going to leave me with a bad taste in my mouth or a hole in my wallet the size of a small moon just to have a few terabytes of storage.

At the end of the day, if the price is too high, chances are it isnt meant for you anyway, and if the price seams cheap, chances are you're already better off using TrueNAS directly, so, they've hit a reasonable middleground on pricing for folk like me who haven't got the time to go and learn how to manage a TrueNAS system, but still want a NAS using our own hardware. I think the pricing is fair for the (planned) value that the software could provide

civic swallow
#

Oh the software definitely isn't for me, I never said that it is. I was just excited about the project as I know a lot of people who would have benefited from software like this, but seeing the price tag I don't think it's a reasonable price for what it is. If the pricing would be lower I would definitely want to recommend it to others

#

This isn't 150 for a windows license that will last 5 years with updates. This is an OS license that should last with updates as long as the company does

#

Its a one time purchase.
One time purchase for indefinite licensed software is expensive

spice oak
#

any time I see life time license, at some point, the company will redefine what life time means where it no longer means for the rest of your life

#

because life time licenses are never sustainable business wise

#

enterprise software, at least some enterprise software, has always been subscription based. You usually get a 1 year license up front, and if you want updates and fixes, you need to pay another 1 year license.

desert copper
#

And the best part is if the company goes under guess what trueNAS is still around and that's what the underlying system is at the end of the day.

#

Tbh I'm guessing this buddy backup and actual features will be an extra charge. Which to me is no different than dlc. And honestly idm dlc as long as it's content and not horse armor. FYI I'm assuming that there will be a lot more usable apps for that $300 price tag. Because the NAA feature is already built in. Tbh right now I find hexOS to be underwhelming, but this is by design. Lol it was so easy to set up.

woeful crescent

#

Lol I know that's what he says but I am skeptical on that since they do need to continue making money so that they can be self sustainable I don't want them to go away lol

woeful crescent

I think Linus wouldnโ€™t have said anything about it if he wasnโ€™t sure.. so fairly sure he has commitments about the Buddy System.. Iโ€™m sure there are other features they can add that would require you to pay them, or require a subscription..

cursive tiger
#

i think it's a great project and i would like to see it succeed but at $300 i don't see it capturing much of the potential market

#

a genuine windows 11 home license is less than half that and that's a much bigger project with multiple orders of magnitude more developers and overheads
of course hexos is being sold at much lower volume so they have to charge more but i feel like closer to $200 would make it more popular

#

again, like nearly everyone here i couldn't tell you how much it costs them to make or how many people are using it

woeful crescent
#

It does help that it'll have a Subscription, so thats a solid try before you buy option.. and while $300 might be the lifetime license base price, no idea how often it'll be on sale and by how much.. I don't know anyone that got lifetime plex at full price for example..

HexOS license fee amortized over 5-10 years, is pretty cheap when you think about the monthly cost.
$2.50/month after 10 years.

woeful crescent
#

also its a great tour video to begin with.. the camera dying and video being corrupted mid-Linus rant about SD Cards was gold.. and I like Geralds tours..

#

Agreed, $300 really isn't that much big picture.. especially if it IS what it claims to be, minimal knowledge needed to get setup and running.. Yes, there are free options, but unless you already know what you're doing imagine cost per hour of learning or getting someone else to do it..

#

and if you do know what you're doing, well then, you can do it yourself and save the money, or spend anyway just to turn your brain off lol

People happily spend many hundreds on a basic ass Synology before they even get to buying the drives

#

A system which is both very performance limited and drive limited

#

Compare this to the system they used in the video, less than $100 + $299 for the lifetime license at full price + drives.... For which the only limit is the amount of SATA ports on the board and then the amount of pcie slots/lanes for HBAs or whatever to attach more drives

They have enterprise offerings locked behind licenses, and they have open source offerings which are not. The two are not mutually exclusive

The enterprise features are expensive, and the open source stuff is free, HexOS is taking the open source stuff, and making it easier, or even in some cases adding entirely new things

What I was asking, because I use unRaid and have never touched TrueNas, is if HexOS goes under, do you fall back to the โ€˜free versionโ€™ of TrueNas, or a higher tier?

frozen agate
#

You fall back to whatever you want, because ultimately you are using a truenas system under the hood either way, and can pay for the enterprise licence of the OS if you'd like. That's the beauty of it, if they go under you dont have to replace your whole OS and rebuild your arrays. You have it all, and it all just falls back

GoFundMe isnโ€™t going to keep them employed for new features and keeping it up to date. They arenโ€™t making a one-and-done object, itโ€™s something that will have prolonged costs. A subscription service with a lifetime option is the best option.. now if your not willing to pay the price then ya you can get TrueNAS and diy it.. others spend even more for a Synology option which has higher upfront costs and is imho a worse product.
