Bobiverse is in my list for this year for sure, heard good things. Didn't know about Expeditionary Force, will take a look!

books are the bestest present, and that one especially!

Project Hail Mary was one of my 2024 favs!

well that's great. I want to remove all of the AI functionality from my GApps. Guess I'll contact support, then.

Many services don't need to be reachable externally, and I use @tailscale.com to reach those, which is the single most awesome addition to my home lab. Been running it for a year, and it's been rock solid.

In that case... I have this thing https://www.amazon.nl/dp/B00ORENYJE for some migration work and it works. Plug into raspberry pi or whatever you have laying around, instant storage.

So... It depends? On whether you just need storage (and how resilient it must be) or also need to run apps / containers / vms
