Anyway, I would recommend YouTube. Find a series you can follow along. Best of luck!

You've cherry picked your own beliefs and inserted / removed them along the way.
This is disgusting
It's a challenge of itself, and will force you to demonstrate your understanding
On my finger is a tungsten carbide ring, it's extremely dense (that of gold, slightly heavier than uranium), and has a lot of interesting properties. It's warmed quickly by my fingers, and rings the most beautiful tone when I strike it with some bar stock of AI.
Wolfram has been a very nice metal in my life, I wish it was more common, and would love to try to add some knurling to it.
I wanted a personal computer, and purchased an identical machine, M1 Max, 64Gig, whatever. I realized 4 days later that it wasn't possible for me to push my personal machine anywhere near this machines limits. I returned it, and bought an extremely cheap ($240?) MacBook Pro, i5 - 2017.
It hasn't slowed me down, and my strategy is to use macOS and not sign in with my Apple ID. No Mac App Store, iCloud, etc. I use App tamer and little snitch to eke out any performance gains possible... it's an excellent machine, and I'm so happy with it.
I want to thank Apple for introducing this express route in the rat race, which has lead to an extremely friendly second market of intel, and 1st generation M's.
I implore you to ask yourself if you really need the next generation, or even the previous one before purchasing
Way back when (2006?), a friend of mine sold wallhacks for online games. It was his software, written in C++, and it was considered to be pretty much on a level of its own.
Anyway, IIRC, Casper had a piece of software wrap his executable which would generate a hash from the purchasers PC, I believe it was hardware- Hard drives, graphics cards, whatever.
It was extremely difficult to determine who was a new customer, and who was a customer who upgraded their hardware. It ended up being a lot of maintenance - but it was cool to see behind the scenes, so to say.
It was also interesting to see another league of players form: dedicated cheating servers. Who had the best hacks amongst the hackers. At first, it was walling (seeing through walls), and then aimbots. Aimbots got better, and finally aimbots which calculated the spray patterns.
He ended up having a baby and taking a professional software job
I feel like this is part of Apple's cover story for excessive serialization 'we just want to make sure the parts in your phone are the parts we own'.
I really love the ability to listen for ONVIF events; it expands the flexibility of products like this because you can essentially do whatever you want if you consume the events. There are even ways to create custom events (for example, if someone covers the camera lens with their hands, etc).
Home Assistant has excellent ONVIF support - I'd like to create a wrapper of sorts around scripts (Boolean door open, door close stuff) in order to get the native ONVIF events
ESXI 8.0.1 worked out of the box with the 7090 I was given.
I'm migrating it from 6.7u3, which is running in 14 year old hardware (injecting the drivers was easy btw - finding the drivers was difficult).
ESXi is not managed with vCenter, it's a standalone host. I'm hosting a handful of VM's that do everything I need.
Critical items are never sorted solely on the server; they're stored on three remote sources, with integrity checks , and mock restorations.
Fortigate 140d PoE, which handles a phone system and all of the PoE I need.
Backups are simple. No RAID, again, critical stuff is not solely on the server.
I use enterprise disks, and SMART - I'll get a notification with ntfy if something gets wonky.
Server is consuming 60-160w. 16gb of RAM, non ECC, 5th gen i5, 12TB of storage.
Homebridge, home assistant, scrypted, Asterisk, Samba, Timemachine backups (all containers configured with compose, checked into Git) windows 10 and 7 VM's
All of the hardware is second hand, with exception to the disks. Ambient in the closet is 29, no dedicated cooling.
UPS with cyberpower.
Glad to see you're using solar, and that your hardware too is used. When I worked in the industry they'd toss stuff I could never afford...
FWIW: Proxmox seemed like something new to learn entirely, ESXi seemed similar for me; I don't mind the RAID stance, or the licensing...
He said "that's really cool" and signed a copy of Ghost in the Wires for me.
Really incredible guy. Rest in peace my friend.
