Running any LLM on truenas is not awesome. I’ve tried it with GPU passthrough and it’s just too much overhead. I may just burn all my stuff down and restart with Proxmox, run Truenas core inside just for NAS. The idea of a converged nas+virtualization is wonderful, but it’s just not there.

The host networking model alone is such a pain, then you get into performance stuff. I still like Truenas a lot, but I think that Proxmox is probably still the better platform.

I’m getting pretty pissy in my age. Too many responsibilities, not enough money and time to handle them all.

Books are one of the few things I am more than willing to pay full price for.

Sure the publishers eat a lot of the money, but the authors don’t do too badly.

The very nature of a book (unless something is published as an e-book only) keeps it from being enshittfied like streaming audio and video services. If someone were to print an ad in the book, I could just rip it out and throw it away.

Books are one of the last places where you just will not see an ad or be tracked, or have popups, and other irritating “features”.

Books are good.
