Basically, just like the title says. I've had my 1080ti since launch. It is without question the single greatest PC component I've ever bought, but my computer usage has changed. I don't really game anymore, and if I do, it's generally on my Xbox. I run linux exclusively and generally speaking I stick with OpenSuse Tumbleweed or NixOS. While the 1080ti performs perfectly fine for me, I'm just tired of dealing with Nvidia drivers breaking things from time to time when updating. Machine specs are as follows;

Mobo: X570 I AORUS PRO WIFI CPU: Ryzen 3900X RAM: 32gb Gskill Trident Monitors: Dual Dell S2417DG (1440p, 144hz) Case: Fractal Design Pop Mini Silent

Again, I don't really game on my PC anymore, and I spend most of my time in Freecad and Kdenlive. If I'm going to replace my 1080ti I want to make sure that I'm still upgrading. If I decided 6 months from now I want to play something on PC, I'd still like the ability with "decent" graphics.

I've been looking at the Arc A770, but a lot of the things I'm reading are a year old and saying things like; "It performs well, but beware of driver issues", or "Most things are working, but it's still got a ways to go". I'm just wondering if a year later things have gotten better?

If the A770 isn't really "ready" yet, I'm fine with AMD also. Just wondering what card people would suggest.

My budget is probably in the $250 - $350 range. I could probably stretch to $400 if I really needed to, but I'd like not to.

Server suggestions? (sh.itjust.works)
submitted 7 months ago by ryknow@sh.itjust.works to c/plex@lemmy.ml

Hey all, just wondering what others are using for a rack mount server option. I don't want to break the bank, and I have a P2000 I plan to use for transcoding. I had picked up a Hyze Zeus server, but unfortunately, the GPU won't fit in that box. I plan to have this machine dedicated to Plex. All of my data will be stored on my trunas server and server up to plex via NFS shares, so the server doesn't need much storage capacity. I would prefer the server to be a 1u rack mount... but if 2u is going to offer the best option, I will settle for 2u.

Just wondering if this is normal... or is there something I need to be looking at here? These Rx pauses are the result of roughly 48 hours worth of traffic. The device pictured is the CRS317-1G-16S+, and the switch on the other end is a CRS326-24G-2S+. I'm using brand new FS tranceivers and an fs om4 lc to lc fiber patch. I've swapped the tranceivers for 10gtek ones (also brand new), and it didn't make a difference.

When I look at the CSR326-24G, I see very similar numbers except in the tx pauses column... which I think makes sense. I'm just not sure if there is something I should do? Or, could someone help explain what might be causing it? I'm new to 10gb networking and mikrotik as a whole, so I'm just trying to dial things in.

Omg... I'm a dummy. Thank you, stranger!

[-] ryknow@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago

OK... I guess I'm an idiot... Where is the pre-reg on the playstore?

[-] ryknow@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

Switched to Lemmy, here. Just waiting on sync for Lemmy, and I'll be golden!!

I'm currently running pfsense, and then mikrotik and ubiquiti switched and ubiquiti AP's. I'm slowly removing the ubiquiti switches and moving to mikrotik as I'm upgrading to 10gbe. Mikrotik switches have a reputation of being reliable, capable, and cheap-ish. So far I like them. While I love ubiquiti's single pane of glass approach with the unifi controller, I wanted to get away from that a bit. I work in IT, and most things I encounter don't have that... And are configured via cli and or web interface. When I built my home network I jumped into ubiquiti for the ease. Now I'm back tracking for more learning.

I think the integration, dedup, garbage collection as a whole. I personally love my PBS server.

[-] ryknow@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

Probably not a bad idea. I'm in the process of upgrading to 10gbe.i have all the nics, and a switch... Just waiting on cables. Once I have the cables, I'll be getting my cluster together. Right now I just run my three nodes as separate instances.

Random question... I dumped reddit and jumped on to Lemmy. But I keep seeing things about mastadon and kbin also. What the difference between all of them? Are they all federated and sharing the same servers?

[-] ryknow@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 year ago

Thank you to the dev's as always!! I've updated one node so far, and it went flawlessly! Two to go! Keep up the great work, devs!

Thank you, friend! 👍

Incase anyone is wondering... Little clip of an implosion

RIP to those who parished. I think most can take solace knowing that if it turns out to be true that it was an implosion, it would have been instant, and the occupants likely felt nothing. .

Couldn't agree more!! I'd absolutely love to have sync back!

[-] ryknow@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 year ago

I am ALL for this!! I was a sync pro user for years!! Miss that app now that I'm done with reddit.
