I would suggest an Intel N100 mini PC if you are planning to transcode video files with Plex. Intel Quick Sync performs better than AMD for media transcoding.

Not sure if you’re aware, but Immich has a duplicate finder

Dockge for docker compose stacks. Glances for system resource usage because it has a Homepage widget.

I am running my disks as mirrors.

I have a Terramaster 4-bay DAS

I’m running a mini-PC with the N100, 12GB RAM, and 2x18TB mirrored drives on ZFS and it seems to work well.

I migrated using the CLI tool to upload before external libraries came out, and it worked well for me. I think I would have preferred to use external libraries for things like my wedding photos, so there aren’t duplicates on my server, but it’s not a big deal.

I have a Miband 6 and it’s pretty nice. The advantage over bigger smart watches is the battery lasts like 2 weeks more per charge.

French colonization of Haiti was particularly horrible because of the mass importation of slaves and extremely poor treatment of slaves on plantations. But Haiti’s poor development is also the result of many post-independence events. France forced Haiti to pay massive reparations. The US intervened in Haiti several times to prop up US-backed leaders who did little to develop Haiti.
