07:04 <@Dolemite> mr0ning, be0tches and h0ez!
07:42  * aestetix hugs Dolemite 
09:55 < Evilpig> oh man.  this vm is not happy with me.  I set up software raid to test a few things and it just does not like it
10:48 <@Dolemite> You seem to have quite a hate/hate relationship with your systems lately
10:52 <@Dolemite> I'm migrating all of my radarr/sonarr/sabnzbd stuff directly to run on my squeezer box.   No point in having VMs just keeping the wire hot between them.
10:52 <@Dolemite> Well, one of my two squeezer boxes.   
10:53 < Evilpig> yeah, it's not been pleasant.  that's what I get for nearly the last year being mostly trouble free
10:54 < Evilpig> mainly just trying to make sure this isn't going to have a problem while i'm in cali next week and have to try to explain to ash how to fix something
10:55 < Evilpig> just want to go for a week and have this run and just be good
10:57 <@Dolemite> Hrmm.   Well, my first test case and it's getting a faster download rate from the newsgroups.
10:58 < Evilpig> that's always nice
10:59 <@Dolemite> Yeah the drives in my proxmox box are 5400s and with so many active pieces, a repair job would bring everything to a halt
11:01 <@Dolemite> sweet.  Radarr is working correctly.   Now to play with Sonarr.   After some lunch.
11:03 < Evilpig> about to heat me up some as well
11:43 < dasunt> Dolemite: I'd probably envy your setup, but not the cost.  :D
11:43 < dasunt> I think I'm just running one TB SSDs in my proxmox boxes, just because I tend to spin up pretty small linux VMs for testing.
11:55 <@Dolemite> dasunt: No, I am a cheapskate.  Both of my proxmox servers are eBay specials.   Dual XEON servers that I paid less than $250 each for, but they came with a crapload of memory.
11:56 <@Dolemite> However, I recently bought a couple of AMD Ryzen 5 SFF desktops that are doing a helluva job as Tdarr nodes because - from my own testing, at least - the vdpau optimizations in ffmpeg seem to be way better (faster + no artifacting) at converting to h265 than the cuda optimizations.
11:57 <@Dolemite> I think I paid $175/each for those AMDs
15:25 < dasunt> Dolemite: Lol, I use an HP T730 for my proxmox servers.  They are literally thin clients.
15:25 < dasunt> If you don't need CPU power, or a ton of memory, they are small, quiet, and pretty damn cheap.  Good for our small house.
15:28 <@Dolemite> Yeah, the AMD boxes I got are super quiet unless I've tossed a ton of files at them to squeeze down
15:28 <@Dolemite> but definitely quieter than the DELL servers running proxmox
15:36 < dasunt> Got the idea from here:  https://forums.servethehome.com/index.php?resources/introduction-to-the-hp-t730-thin-client-the-little-box-that-could.41/

15:37 < dasunt> At the time, they were cheap on eBay (probably 3 year lease returns) and they have their uses.  
15:39 < dasunt> Throw in a 1TB SSD and 16GB memory, and they are pretty good for some stuff.
15:41 < dasunt> You don't want to use them if you need >16GB of memory though, beause it's two memory slots for DDR3L sodimms.  8GB sticks are cheap enough, but 16GB sticks are insanely expensive.

16:56 < dasunt> Anyone use Oracle cloud free tier for a virtual server?
17:04 < Evilpig> nope.  looked at it a couple of times
18:00 < dasunt> Hmmmm.
18:18 <@Dagmar> A genie once appeared to a man and told him "I have a challenge for you!  I will give you a million dollars, and if you can spend it all in one month, I will give you ten billion dollars.  However, you can not give the money away, nor can you buy real estate or stocks."
18:18 <@Dagmar> THe man thinks for a moment and says, "Can I use AWS?"
