Just read a comment about exactly this a few days ago. Anyone working on space components know that a very hat problem to work on is how to keep things cool because, well - having the fucking sun shine on things most of the time directly without the ozone layer and air to dissipate heat in and way does make things go hot.

Also, you forgot a very important thing a data center needs: people that work there. That is one of the reasons we currently build data centers so close to urban sprawls in Arizona instead of somewhere in the middle of Alaska or in polar regions. There must be personnel working onsite all the time.

Ente worked for me. More pricey, yes. But you do not pay with your data... Also e2e encrypted, good family plans and sharing works good.

And one of their backup locations is an underground bunker

lol, made me remember, a friend of mine made a cat mask out of paper in school and decided to wear it at home one day. His - otherwise very very affectionate - cat flipped the fuck out running around the house, hissing and making a scene.

Was kinda funny, but we figured it was a rather stressful occurrence for his car...

Image checks out.

It tried to break containment 🚨

Depending on availability where you live: L'Occitane has a nice shaving soap in a tin and Speick has a cream in an aluminum Tube.

Such a cutie! Perfect pose!

But a big PSA: That plant looks like a Yucca? They are very poisonous for cats, as they contain very high amounts of saponins. So munching on the leaves as well as scratching the wood (and licking the paws afterwards) should be prevented.

And I even read that multiple times. There is no escape

Great that you enjoy that little luxury in your mornings! Making that fresh coffee and enjoying it while waking up can be such an awesome mood booster.

As already answered: Knock the portafilter against the edge/wall of your bin and the "cake" should just fall out. There are also special little containers with a little (afaik often rubberized) bar on top for exactly this.

Then just rinse the basket and done :)

Get yourself a nice little (fine tuned) scale for measuring the beans and a grinder (e.g. the Porlex Mini is affordable, very good and holds enough beans for a double shot espresso) and get down to experimenting to get your perfect coffee.

Sorry Sir, that's not dull - that's fucking awesome! I now have the urge to get myself a new set

Yeah, weekly backup to B2 or similar should be fine. Postponed setting it up myself - I paid for a year of Ente and currently sync everything both to premium Ente and my local Immich, so backup is fine for now.

For the heat: I am running it on a Pi4 with 8GB RAM and it runs pretty decently even without cooling. For the large import, I set up only the ML-container on a more potent desktop (still fiddling with GPU HW-acceleration) and added it as remote ML to Immich, so I can offload heavy ML load when e.g. importing many files.

The normal upload stream is fine with the local ML, though

Are they? I have not checked their posts in depth. The ones I have seen in my feed were along the lines of "lol, Linux users do not shower / don't get women" or "if Linux good, why not used in Business" (what is a wild thing to say, considering... Well Servers), so that's the baseline I've had in my mind
