I have induction and strugle with this even when not overfilling the pan, as the sides don’t get warm compared to the bottom. I have to make really small portions to manage properly, and mixing together in the end like you mentioned.

Never ever had gas as it’s uncommon here, but I’ll take your word for it not fixing it. Any advice to share, or do I just keep doing it in rounds?

Du valgte feil Nordisk land, ellers gratulerer med nytt liv her i nord!
Du får komme en tur opp til oss hvor det er fjell, fjord, laks og folk som snakker forståelig, min venn.

God Jul!

Agree as a native.

Nothing to crazy about what he wants to achieve. The crazy part (and I respect him for dedicating his life to it) is to attempt it in the US of all places.
The amount of bat shit crazy that has been allowed to rear its ugly head since the last election is impossible to wrap my head around.
Super happy Mamdani won NYC. It shows that there are places in the US we can still relate to.

To answer OP: Personally I don’t care where you are from if you integrate and contribute to society. I haven’t met many Americans here, though…

Agree with point 1.
His holier-than-thou attitude is exhausting. Stop trying to spread your fantasy friends around, we don’t want them.

Yeah I can’t argue with that, it’s more that I have no financial gain in this setup, so every redundancy set up costs me directly. At some point I have to say that it’s good enough.

It’s always a trade-off I guess, with cost being the deciding factor.
If I ever build a new house, I’m having a proper rack with room for a redundant server for sure!

Like others have said, I also prefer having a backup and getting new HW when shit hits the fan.
You can build a warm-standby solution, but that road is both costly and more labor intensive.

The family can survive for a few hours while I run out to get a new drive or NUC to fix stuff.
If you’re lucky, it happens right after dinner so you can skip clean-up too!

For Norway it depends, really…

We get the small things (lights, figurines) out with advent starting, so late november/early december, but don’t do the tree until the night before (23rd). The outside lighting we usually do a bit earlier, as it gets super dark here and it looks nice.
Some people do it much earlier.

Special traditions for Norway would probably be porridge with an almond in it. The one who gets the almond wins the marzipan prize.
Our family does it a bit differently: There are many almonds, the total changing every year and only Mum knows, and the one with the most gets to pick from the prize pool first. That way, everybody gets something and the kids are happy.
I finally won last year with 14.
It’s also super fun watching people looking like chipmunks, hiding their almonds until it’s time to count.

No.
All 5 Nordic countries are consistently in the top 10 and are very much capitalistic, albeit with a very strong social safety net and a historic mentality of cooperation.

Capitalism is a functional system as long as it is heavily regulated. As soon as the corporations are allowed to influence politicians and the media not held responsible for presenting a false narrative, the system begins crumbling.

And those saying it’s impossible to get rich in our type of society: The top 10 list of millionaires per capita has three Nordic countries in it, and three of the other countries are tax heavens Switzerland, Singapore and Hong Kong.

I have three servers running these days.
One is a NAS that hosts the .arr suite and my torrent client. This is just to keep the media management in one place.
A N100 NUC that runs a lot of stuff in Proxmox, like Jellyfin, Heimdal, HomeAssistant, PiHole, Tailscale. I hope to add Caddy to this in the future, but I’ve never played with a reverse proxy before so I’m a tiny bit scared hehe.
Lastly is a inudstrial PC I got from work that hosts game servers. Right now it’s down as we haven’t had time to game, but usually it’s either a Minecraft server or Valheim.

For backup I have one copy on the NAS and I upload the most critical data to a cloud service I trust and pay for. This is now Proton.
My dream is finding a tech friend with his/her own NAS so we can set up a encrypted partition on each others NASes for automatic backup. I give you 1 TB, you give me 1 TB, life’s good!

As with most things: it depends…

If you’re in a country where ISP’s freely give out user info, I’d say you should have a VPN.
If you’re on a private tracker, you might not need it, but you never know if the people hunting pirates managed to get in there too.
I don’t use one as our ISP’s mostly throw those letters in the trash and I’m in a private tracker, but your mileage may vary.

To get started, you only need a server (like Jellyfin or Plex) and a torrent client. Then you can automate it with the .arr stack, such as Radarr and Sonarr, race others with autodl-issri/Autobrr, share your media with friends and family with open ports (not recommended) or Tailscale/Netbird…
It gets as advanced as you yourself want it to be.

Feel free to ask if you have any questions, not just about piracy but how to set things up in general.
Good luck, and remember to have fun while doing it. If you don’t, you won’t bother keeping it updated and working in the future.

Webrips. That’s how we get movies and shows today without waiting for physical media being released

Are you streaming to a Chromecast, by any chance? Or a older Galaxy device?
The 4k Chromecast with Google TV does not support AV1, but the 1080p version does. Jellyfin tried Direct Playing AV1 files, which obviously went poorly.

I run the same CPU in my NUC as you do, and all data is on a NAS shared with NFS. It’s been absolutely bulletproof for about a year, so I’m confident you should be able to make this work.

Any other containers running at the same time?
No cooling issues?

Just asking because mine dropped massively in temp when repasted.

Yes once, and it was at the ending of “Brothers: A tale of two sons”.
I bawled my eyes out.

Small game, but absolutely recommend for anyone that wants to clear out their tear canals.

I don’t know why it wouldn’t be, as they are great products out of the box.
A bit pricy, but worth it. I’d give the same recommendation as you for anyone wanting to dabble a little and have room to grow and play with VLAN’s, ACL’s and expandability in the future.

Same for us.
She hates cooking and it looks like a bomb went off when she’s done. I hate doing laundry and it looks like a toddler folded the clothes when I’m done.
Cooking and cleaning probably takes more time per day, but we’re both happy.

A win/win that has never been explicitly agreed to, just happened naturally.

Carbonara.

I’ve been served this dish with peas, with onions and with cream.
I can forgive the bacon if it’s really good bacon, as guanciale/pancetta can be hard to get here, but for gods sake don’t ruin it with anything else.

I rarely order it when out because so many places just serve a generic dish with bacon and ham without mentioning it, and I am not being the snob that asks what they use.

Can confirm the gas powered ones work really well, but you gotta run it early in the season to catch the fuckers right after hatching.

A friend lives in moscito hell and could probably make burgers daily with the amount he catches.

My man!

Urge is still my go to every single time I want soda. Solo for easter and Julebrus for Christmas

Reading people.
Had some troubles with family members and drugs growing up, so you learn to read situations and people real fast. I guess it’s a survival skill as addicts often say and do what they need to to get their next fix.

A nice «skill» to have, even though I’d rather I didn’t need to develop it

I’m using a Chromecast with Google TV, simply because that’s what I had when I started.
Hoping a new Shield will come before it dies, alternatively I need to find something else.

After I migrated to a N100 that does all transcoding for me, the media device itself is more about codec support, a nice UI and response times and less about raw power.
