Following I want to get into printing but i am trying to decide if it should be a buy once cry once sort of purchase

This right here, my area is lucky to get anything in 2 days at the best of times. The shipping company amazon uses here is beyond brutal. I feel like the $140 a year she pays for prime could be better spent other places, i prefer to shop locally but its getting hard.

Same i 100% refuse to watch commercials. I dont consume the same amount of material i once did just due to lack of interest in political BS being crammed down my throat but when i do i dont need the 19min of commercials per 60min of broadcast

We have completely cord cut at the house including all streaming services except prime just because of the shipping. Prime video will gone now as well, just need to convince the wife she doesnt need a prime account anymore

i have multiple people who have told me if I ever want to sell my kuro they want it, for 1080P content it cant be beat. For movie night if we dont have a 4k disk the family prefers watching on it even tho its slightly smaller.

Still use and love my pioneer kuro 60, if only they would make a new plasma in 4k i would by in a heart beat

I just helped a good friend wire his house and tried to talk him into doing conduit runs but he didnt want the extra cost associated with it since he isnt planning on keeping the house more then 3-5 years so we did all cat6e runs except we did 1 fiber run from his office/ gaming room back to the...

Been on amazon looking for deals all week, I'm narrowing down to cmr drives for sure. If i decide to do a smaller z1 pool just to move files quickly back and forth over the network is it possible to mirror that onto the larger more secure raid z2 pool as a little safety net? Or just say screw it...

Fantastic info saving that for later. Now to find a good deal on some hard drives. Just picked up 3 2tb ssds for $71cdn each im going to tinker with a z1 pool of fast drives once i get up and running, worst case they go into the gaming pc.

Since we have ditched all streaming services the majority of the time it will be 2 4k streams at a time, usually full audio h.265, but occasionally there will be a 3rd 1080p as well. I am trying to plan fast storage for the future if i decide to try and store my steam Library on it as well

Looks like i am returning/reselling the msi. I have been skimming the Truenas forums a bit so much information to consume, im thinking about having 2 pools 1 being z3 for my super important data as another layer of protection. I am undecided on what to use for my plex media, since i just need...

I went with the msi because it had really good reviews, onboard 2.5 and was a door crasher blackfriday sale, with cdn exchange rate in the toilet i grabbed it, i honestly forgot about ECC ram if it becomes an issue ill sell it and go with something else

I picked up a ryzen 5 5600 Msi b550 tomahawk 2tb WD blue m.2 Corsair cx650m Going to do more research on ram, i have 16tb to get it up and running, no crazy deals on HD’s yet going to keep looking

Picked up a few items on decent black friday sales, Cdn prices are in the crapper. As far as software i am completely in over my head, current server is running windows server with a basic raid card, i am one step above a linux noob so most of it is foreign to me. Since plex is the number 1...

I believe they were scared to lose their workforce but the job market has shifted here and they realized that most of these workers wouldnt leave like they would have 8 months ago
