I had not seen much of MeidasToucg before this election, as as a 'rest of world member' the first couple of videos I watched were OK, then it seemed to be more of the same and as you say "Newsreader DAZED & BEFUDDLED by hyperbole!"

I'm currently a Site/Processing manager that dabbles in data, got there through beekeeping. I got a summer job working for a beekeeper (over 30 years. ago now) while doing a BSc in organic chemistry and never went back to uni - I was planning to go into lab work/food science in the dairy industry.

Was just talking about how cool New Zealand's rare frogs are and wanted to share. These frogs evolved to have no ears, so they also have no croaking noises (what's the point if the mates you are trying to attract are deaf) which is unique!

NB: There probably is a bit of "political" content insofar as some of the people are talking about threats to the frog and opposing its habatat destruction but I think this still belongs in general?

Replace old IBM hardware (no.lastname.nz)

Hi all

I'm looking to replace my old IBM M3 an M4 servers with something more modern

Use case:

Proxmox:
- OPNsense
- TrueNAS
- Plex/Jellyfin
- Reverse proxy
- Web servers for blogs etc
- QBT
- Nextcloud
- IoT/home automation
- A heap of linux VMs/Containers of odds and ends
- Docker
  - arr stack
  - Dashboards
- etc

Maybe replace the 3/4s dead laptop that is currently driving the lounge TV as well

I'm looking to hopefully replace the diskshelf at the same time and have a mix of sata and sas drives (I can carry over the HBAs for the sas)

I've not built a pc for nigh on 15 years so I'm a tad out of the loop.

From reading it looks like intel may be the best route and I was thinking of something like:

Core i5 12400 or Core i5 14400
B760M DS3H AX mATX or B660M Pro RS

I'm open to thoughts and ideas of what id doable

Edit: The IBM M4 runs E5-2650 v2 and 96GB ram

The M3 runs dual xeon 5xxx and has about 60BG ram and is only used for testing/play and is seldom powered up

I didn't actually know they were building a new wharf on Somes, it's great that the island is getting more infrastructure. And great they caught the ants, obviously.
