This is also the reason why we need to ensure our OS systems remain open, so that we can craft the super customized app for our needs, and be able to install it on our devices easily


What is Ryzen adding here towards the NAS part of this system? Or is it only for gaming?


Main benefit of Ryzen is that previously I was aiming for something like Atom or N300 for low power consumption - now, with Ryzen I have CPU with 10x computing power, powerful integrated GPU, that idles at 1W, and I can do serious gaming with it.


NAS in this context is more about home server then an actual plain network attached storage.

I usually call mine NAS too, despite technically using it more for selfhosting - and basically never mounting it's data volumes. I think this applies to almost everyone using them nowadays, which is also the reason why the pre built ones are less and less relevant - because they always have super conservative CPUs (which are more then sufficient for a NAS that's actually used as a plain network attached storage - but severely underperforming if the user wants to run services on it.)


Any worthy alternatives that people recommend?


Big +1, and an obvious observation for anyone who moved here


As an Indian, I was suprised to learn at first that anti-incumbency wasn't the norm across the world. It is not such a bad thing.


You can build your own NAS, but for a much simpler way to start, buy couple of external drives and use Stable bit Drive pool application, along with https://github.com/rclone/rclone


My only issue with congestion pricing right now is that there is no revenue sharing with NJ Transit


Apparently NJ turned down an offer of $100M+ per year: https://nyc.streetsblog.org/2024/12/18/nj-refusing-generous-...

Yeah, this article has bit more details https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/crmn127kmr4o


This is in a highly geologically active zone though.


+1 on the need to move away from the two party system
