recommendations for 2.5 gig 48 port managed switch

Anybody see a 48 port managed 2.5 Gig ethernet switch for reasonable pricing yet? it seems like these are still either thousands of dollars or sold for chinese market without appropriate certificatiosn to be plugged into the north american electric grid. Any help would be appreciated (even better if it has 2-4 SFP+ 10 gig ports...

2.5 is still really new in the networking space and nobody has hit economies of scale yet. I very much also want to build out my home LAN to be entirely 2.5g compatible since 1g is limiting for my NAS use case (video storage), 10g is overkill and not supported by my client devices, and I only need 16/24 ports. but good God the hardware just isn’t reasonable yet.

You pretty much have to bite the bullet if you really want 2.5 right now. What might honestly be worthwhile is finding a used enterprise 1g switch with the number of ports you need, and will still be “enough”, as those can be had for only a couple hundred dollars. Sit on that for 2-3 years until the 2.5g and 5g hardware market starts to fill out and you can decide how badly you need 2.5g then

empireOfLove,

Really. Anything branded from Samsung or Crucial(Micron) is going to be fine. They are the top producers of NAND, produce high quality products, and stand behind warranties. But you are gonna pay out the nose for the privilege of enterprise grade hardware.

You might just be buying lower quality consumer SSD’s though, since even they should be able to handle a surprising amount of abuse.

empireOfLove,

“Florida Center for Government Accountability” is a fucking hilarious oxymoron

If I had a dollar for every time rebuilding a RAID array after one failed drive caused a second drive failure in the array in less than 24 hours… I’d probably buy groceries for a week.

empireOfLove,

–ar = aspect ratio
16:9 defines said aspect ratio of width:height (16:9 is standard computer monitor widescreen)

–s is “stylize” which controls the realism passes.
A lower value gives realistic images while higher values generates more cartoons, outlandish, “trippy” kinda images (75 is a very low value)

empireOfLove,

Im not OP, but I’m 95% sure those commands are specific to the midjourney discord bot. I don’t know if Bing passes command args like the discord bot does or if it just ignores them. Worth doing some experimentation though

empireOfLove,

If you pick up what is supposed to be an empty can and it weighs like a pound and a half… you’re gonna be curious and look inside at least once.

I always make hot lemon-and-honey “tea” when it’s fuck-off cold out. It’s what my mom did for sore throats (which I did get, and still got, frequently in the winter) so it’s super comforting.

Just squeeze about 1/2 of a lemon into a mug of hot water, then drizzle in honey to taste. Best done with a highly flavored local clover honey imo. And you can use a teaspoon or two of the storebought squeeze bottle lemon concentrate if its all you have.

empireOfLove,

Yeah I’ve got 141 messages waiting on my lemmy account that I can’t be bothered to clear

I feel obligated to respond to most if not all of them because of lemmy’s need for content, and I just don’t wanna. But I also don’t want to just clear them entirely. Some are dating back multiple months…

empireOfLove,

FYI, read this.

empireOfLove,

…I thought you just said you’re running OwnCloud?

empireOfLove,

That would require reddit to actually be making a profit…

empireOfLove,

I’d go to a compound in the woods with you, Mr. Picard 👉👈🥺

Being from a very rural area: guns are tools. They provide self defense against wildlife and crazy humans when you’re miles outside of law enforcement coverage, they are pest control, and they are a humane way of euthanasia when a farm animal is suffering.

And like most other tools, such as drills, post hole augers, machine lathes, tractors, cars, etc… they can maim and kill indiscriminately when used incorrectly or maliciously. But you cannot simply ban or remove the tool from everywhere because it is still serves a very important purpose. Can they be more controlled, education made mandatory, more stringent confiscation rules in the case of people with mental illness? Yes, and probably should. But you will never eliminate the firearm completely.

I am prepared to recieve the hate and downvotes for providing a measured, reasonable response.

empireOfLove,

About as dumb as yours, considering you haven’t bothered to comment anything in opposition besides name calling.

empireOfLove,

Pot, kettle, black.

I consider my take reasonable, and if you can’t understand the nuance of someone who’s been raised with a significantly different life experience than your own, then that’s on you. Have a nice rest of your day.

empireOfLove,

empireOfLove,

I know at least one person who would probably unironically buy these

I should be allowed to post my nonsense and uninformed takes however I please and get ridiculed by the community for it, not outright quiet-banned by mods just because they didn’t like me. I’m a big boy, I can take the heat.

empireOfLove,

empireOfLove,

Don’t make fun of someone asking for a source. That’s called critical thinking.

empireOfLove,

Go to the “Modlog” page at the very bottom of the web interface for your instance. You can search moderation tasks by username, such as your own, and it should show removed content.

I’ve found actual instance bans don’t federate reliably though, e.g i cant see any of my lemmy.ml bans on lemmy.one. so you’d have to check the target instances by opening their web page in an incognito or logged-out browser window, and view their modlog directly instead of your home instances’ modlog.

empireOfLove,

but don’t really see what’s wrong with the comment other than it goes against the political grain of the community (world news).

thats how it do be these days, unfortunately

you’ll never get more explanation than that
