How's your vote working out for you?

If sitting idly by while fascism takes over is such a crime then why aren't you holding to task the actual elected representatives from the DNC who not only allow Trump to do whatever he wants but also vote along with Republicans to ensure their bills are passed?

Your argument is akin to those who claim regular people receiving welfare are responsible for all our government's debt while giving a pass to all the wealthy individuals raiding our government coffers. It's complete nonsense.

I'd argue that it doesn't really matter if some elected members hold leftist views because they're ignored and pushed to the side by the rest of the party at every turn.

Because they'll lose power too. I live in blue Oregon and it was on the ballot in November, but both parties came out against it with nonsense about how popular candidates will lose, your votes will be stolen, etc, etc and it was resoundly defeated. All their rhetoric about helping the working class are blatant lies they tell you to get elected which is why we've been on a steady downward trend as a country for decades regardless of which of these "two" sides hold office.

If you're worried about splitting the vote, then maybe the liberals in the Democratic party should fall in line behind Bernie. I love this presumption that it should always be the progressives who fall in line and vote for the "lesser evil" right wing candidates every single time. Look where that has gotten us.

That doesn't make his statement incorrect. They view him as an outsider because both the Democrats and Republicans are right wing parties and he isn't right wing.

It's okay, honey. I'm sure it's just a phase.

AFAIK no you can't use different sized drives. I have read about the update to allow you to expand existing pools but it hasn't made its way to the version of ZFS that Proxmox uses, but I hope it does soon.

Previously, I was using SnapRAID which does allow you to use any size drive provided your parity drives are equal or larger to the rest of the drives in the pool so you may check that out. It worked well for me on Windows, is available on Linux, and makes it very easy to expand the pool.

I would caution that if you plan to build a big library over time, to just bite the bullet and get matching drives to start with because I tried mismatched drives purchased over several years (whatever was a good deal when I needed to expand the pool) and it got to the point where it was becoming unmanageable once I hit about 8 drives as SATA ports became limited and HDD capacities on the market increased (why waste a port on a 6TB drive when you could have a 14TB-20TB drive instead?). With this new server build, I just bought several matching 14TB drives from serverpartdeals.com and had to transfer everything from the old SnapRAID pool to my ZFS pool which took about a week with rsync.

The fact that I can't find the the YouTube video just PROVES the government is covering everything up!

Well, they didn't say the angle had to be factual.

It really seems to be one way or the other but never in between.

They're literally paying Ashley Babbit's family $5 million after she was shot trying to crawl through the window of a barricaded door into the Speaker's Lobby.

I really hope that officer sues her estate for $5 million for the pain and suffering of having to kill someone committing multiple felonies.

You might look at TechHuts previous tutorial on setting this all up from around a year ago where he instead used Cockpit to manage his ZFS pool shares rather than TrueNAS. I followed that one a few months ago with a minor amount of Linux experience and got everything set up on Proxmox quite easily. I do recall some people complaining about having issues with permissions or some such which is why he created this new tutorial, but I didn't run into those issues for whatever reason.

This new Proxmox build has been rock solid after running everything on flaky laptops, mini PCs, and a Windows-based server build for the past 12+ years and I've also used it to now run things like Jellyseer, Immich, Frigate, and more which is awesome, but I did spend a good chunk of money for a lot of new hardware, redundant SSDs, RAM, etc so you may be better off starting with something more basic to tinker and learn with.
