Network Server

Lots of food for thought. One of my systems is a mini-ITX system, I have not thrown my Kill-o-Watt meter on it, I'll have to do that and see if it may work for what I want to do. I'd have to use external drives as the case is packed as is. Adding a couple of 4T USB drives and perhaps doing a...

Network Server

Well I'd like to power down most if not all the computers when not in use. I stream stuff using network shares to various TV's around the house at varying times. In doing more research on the Raspberry Pi I came across a couple of articles where the author built a dual disk system, main drive...

Network Server

Not quite sure where to post this, opted for here. Looking to build a low powered server. 3T-4T raid, odds are RAID 5. I've got 3 computers around the house running 24/7, really want to cut some power usage. Tossing the idea around of using a Raspberry Pi based system. I know I'd have to...

How do I lose the right side panel?

Thanks for the fix, now if we could only get back to a more rational color theme I'd be fine.

Solid Copper Mixing Bowls (ex: 5qt = $30)

I have a copper bowl insert for my Kitchenaid mixer, only use it for egg whites, and it does a very good job. copper is worth it if you beat a lot of egg whites, not so much if you don't.

Nova Launcher Prime and Poweramp unlocker android apps for $1 each at Google Play.

I picked them both up, thanks. Not sure I will use the Nova Launcher though. I used it years ago and was never happy with it. Bought it to try again and see if I like it any better. What to users gain over the standard launch screen?

Philips 60W Equivalent A19 LED Bulb (4-Pack) $9.97 to $10.97 Home Depot

When shopping for bulbs, compare the lumens and the color temp. If they are close to a 60w bulb rating they will look close to the same.

New Asus tr-ac87u router, blocked push notifications.

Been beating my head against my new router, Asus RT-AC87U replaced an Asus Rt-56. The old router was passing info, I opened all the same ports on the new unit, yet nothing get through. Any suggestions on what setting might be blocking things?

(dead) $99 Instant Pot

Most of what the posted product can do a simple, good old fashioned, pressure cooker can do. No, you can't set it to come on 24 hours later, but for most people it's a non issue. I use a PC for a number of things, but beans are not one of them. Beans in a PC never turn out the same as soaking...
