  • Unfortunately this could be the case and the cynic in me feels this could be a green washing scheme like you said.

    But hopefully with what some cities are doing now with charging the full economic and social cost of blue & black bin programs to companies and manufactures this could start having a real good impact.

    Specially since most manufactures shift the cost of recycling and trash to communities and tax payers. Instead this cost should be internalised by the manufacturer and retailer.

    Hopefully this kind of shift promotes better sustainable packaging, and prevents things like planed obsolescence and fast fashion.






  • Take off the drawer handle (the two screws), this will release the wood drawer front from the drawer face plate.

    Once you have this wood you can fix it back to your drawer with a L- bracket. If the wood is broken too much on the side, you can replace this part with a piece equal in size and depth.

    Like others suggested, pull the nails out and then add your new drawer front, nail it back in (or use screws, pre-drilling your screw holes). Then put your face plate back on.




  • You could use a throwaway email and signup for an account. The account creation is a little tricky if you don’t use a “real name” but a name generator website may help in this, or use a combination of two tv character names.

    Also use a privacy oriented web browser that signs you out each time, something like mule for android or librewolf for desktops.

    One thing not to do is use the FB app or the messenger app on your phone, instead do everything on a browser.

    I miss this the most, older tv models would have like over 30 ports to connect anything you wanted. All newer models just have like 1 HDMI connection if even.

    To add these older screens last. New stuff just dies after a few years, or gets killed with a firmware upgrade.

    PSA: Don’t connect your “smart” appliances to the internet fokes.



  • Seems like the N100 is your option if you are only choosing between these two. Personally I am in the same both as others here, where desktop hardware is my preference at the moment especially if I can find combo deals for mombo/cpu.

    Though my recommendation is to consider a board that would support PCIe for a potential LSI HBA card, stay away from any other sata expansion cards unless you don’t value your data.

    If you do ever pick up a LSI HBA card with support for either 8/12/24 drives I would also state to plug the whole pool into this card and not mix and match between onboard SATA connections and the card.

    A boot drive can still connect to a SATA connection on the board as it not part of the pool.


  • I’m running my NAS on a 12 year old motherboard with 16gb of ram the max the board supports. Though I wish I could bump this up now after running this system for 9 years.

    I would recommend having a board with at least a PCIe slot so if you ever need more drives you can plug them all into a HBA Card. My board has 3 and I use 2 of them at the moment. One for the HBA card that supports 24 drives and another for a 10gb NIC.

    The third I would probably use to add another HBA card if I expand drive quantities.
