Nuuu - stay, my good Mountaindogfloof! ❤️

That's just an analytic, nothing which most people actually need. It's "the most compromise-less solution" with the disadvantage of being very complex to set-up. Aside this it offers almost everything which people search for: encryption, accounts, individual remote access ways from telnet over ftp up to media transfer protocols.. even live streaming to TV or comparable.

But it's complex.. that's for sure. And not that "cheap", tho. As such overpowered for most uses.

Haha I was just joking. I'm a pretty big tech nerd myself. I did have a position for a bit working with tech to an extent where I did learn some networking stuff. Also had a chance to go to comptia A+ and few other courses and get certifications paid for by my work but I didn't see myself working professionally in the tech area so I chose not to go to them.

For me it's just "a hobby" nowadays, as well. I don't want to work in information technology departments anymore, Floofy posted the fitting image beforehand. But the knowledge comes in handy if one develops industrial laser! hardware as example - which costs a lot - and is dependent on IT / software. You can select the right people for their individual jobs if you know which steps and tasks they have to fulfill exactly.

Most personal managers have not the slightest of idea of the tech field they actually hire people for, as such how would they know if those are just faking knowledge or are actually "home boys, but with years of experience and ways undervalued".

Ah, regarding my NAS solution:

The main reason why I am planning on setting such a thing up in each of my basecamps is another one:

You can set it up as a home automation central. Including DVR, digital video recording (station) over PoE linked cameras, which are rugged against all WiFi / BT / WWAN communication jammers, which are used quite often nowadays on thefts.. (costs 100-400$, such a device - and does exactly what the name says: it blocks everything in a specific frequency range by outputting high power scrambled mess).

As such you can add automatic alarms, a whole sensor network (over one of the home automation connectivity standards) and so on. This makes it - as whole solution - very energy efficient.

The main system with some PoE cameras would not take more than a few dozen watts, if the cameras are efficient. And it would as well record, allow full control over the whole home automation, you could even add termination scripts and set up remote fuses (explosives) as response to a push message. Such features are hard to set up with a "buyable" system. And those take mostly 150+W with just 3-4 cameras.. that's a lot for a few features.

I just like learning how things work, especially on the small scale. I was never satisfied with the hand waving and just saying the overall picture of what this object does and well just pretend it works without explanation. So I really loved the crash course computer series because they start out with, here is how a transistor works. Then combine a bunch of transistors together, this is how a logic gate works. Combine the logic gates together in this way, this is how we get the starting workings of a CPU, RAM, memory etc. Started on the smallest fundamental unit and worked all the way up.

I'm the same way when it came to biology as well. I hated, "the mitochondria is the power house of the cell" without no explanation. Once I hit my AP Biology class and learning the krebs cycle and how molecules are actually manipulated to create ATP and what not.

Hehe, we have a lot in common. I as well was never satisfied with "dumb" explanations. Instead I informed myself and then asked the "teaching" ones complicated but not "google'able" questions which would represent a specific experience level and "own" thoughts on their side, without being hard-linked to a text book.

This works wonderfully. They spontaneous understand that they are missing the basics in many regards and as such don't want / being able to teach about those in detail. But only for a few of them this brought the idea of do-it-yourself autodidact learning as so they could teach better, more interesting and with the fundamentals explained.

For most this was basically just a switch which made me invisible for them (in terms of "not getting participated anymore"), because they didn't want to experience situations which brought too much thoughts on their side with it.. that's unfortunate, really.

At the end most of the stuff I learned on autodidact ways in detail, as it's hard to find well-teaching people which are actually as fascinated by a topic as they would need to dive into it's complex structures enough to teach about those.. experience counts..

My good Dane, I am a vulpes! :ROFLMAO:

Now, to be specifically accurate: The persona is a mythical fox deity, which as well has traits of a folf (a fox-wolf chimera), but the wolf traits are not really important (bigger in size than the usual fox deity and comparable specific differences).

But you can call me as whatever you want, it doesn't make me angry or sad. I'm fine with whatever one calls me, as long as it isn't overly cute-ified and neither willingly insulting. (y)

*poooof!* *Shapes into a cloud of logic with two little fox-eyes and hovers over the teacup, while the amount of tea magically lowers and gargling noises echo out of the cloud*
