Honestly weird edge-case scenarios that cause issues seems to be TrueNAS' thing so I wouldn't doubt it if this fixes it for the OP. My server has a cute issue where if I don't have some kind of keyboard plugged in, TrueNAS just doesn't boot. Not even failing to boot, it just doesn't try. When Windows 11 was still my host of choice this was a non-issue so needless to say I was beating my head into a wall when I migrated initially.

Thankfully OptiPlexes lend themselves well to sleepers, so what you could probably do is just cut a 120 (or 140 if possible) hole into the front mesh and remove the 3.5" bays. If yours doesn't have the perforated expansion slot blanks then take the blanks out because those also make quite a difference. Additionally, if you don't have an optical drive AND have the blank you could also totally drill a hole in the top just behind the PSU and shove another fan there. Finish it off with a hole cut into the side panel where the GPU is and put mesh over THAT... Bob's your uncle.

Latest acquisition. An Onix Lumi Arc B580 for the price of a grilled steak burrito and a Baja Blast. Friend of mine upgraded to an RX9070 and that was his price tag for this thing. So far I love it, roughly the same performance as my RTX 2080 if not a bit better while drawing 110w instead of 230w. Not having DLSS and DLAA kinda sucks as they are the single best version of what each is trying to accomplish (argue with a wall) but I'm sure I'll get used to it. I am however kinda pissed that Intel REMOVED their ShadowPlay-equivelant features from the drivers. Like dawg whyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

Bought this dumb idiot today; a 5TB LaCie Rugged. 94 dollars on clearance, used 60 bucks in points on it, PLUS my 10% employee discount after that. Don't have an immediate use for it however 5TB for that price is unbeatable, especially considering this is REALLY just gonna be a dump drive from my server if I ever have to work on the array.

Giiiiiirl that ain't a start menu, that's a bootup animation. Now if they REALLY wanna give it a new start menu... How about they bring back NXE but slightly modernized lol

... Oh my god I've been here for half my life.

Get off my lawn.

My first thought was "Wow, this dude hasn't been here in 10 years, he must be one of the oldheads!" No. I'm the oldhead. Good god how has it been THIRTEEN YEARS since I joined this forum???

Yeah that's how my ProSignia 165 is. Starts out pretty yellow, dark, and uneven but after about 5 minutes she's up to near full brightness and is FAR more evenly lit, and most of the yellow tint is gone.

Switched myself just recently and honestly it's been fine. Mine's running with 4 cores and 4 gigs of ram on my server with an i5 11400 and for me my biggest bottleneck is my ASStastic upload of 15-20Mbps. It does detect faces of people multiple times... but I'm sure there's a way to fix that and I just don't give enough of a shit to look into it. Really my biggest gripe with it is that uploading photos is a bit more irritating compared to Google Photos if you're like me and only back up specific pics. I seem to remember that GPhotos would leave them selected after uploading which made it easier to add them to an album and subsequently delete from your device locally.

Yet another purchase for the Latitude E6440 because I like using it more than I really should for some reason. Last week I got a 90w power brick so that the GPU would run at full clocks when plugged in, and last night I ended up buying a quad-core i7 for it to upgrade from the dual-core 4610M it's got now.

See that's where I run into the issue because on any of my own devices I can access everything perfectly fine. For example, my Immich instance is on 192.168.1.3:30041 which works fine on everything, but if I try to access it on my VM it cannot be found. And it goes the other way around; Snipe-IT is on 192.168.1.30:80, which (of course) works fine on everything but if you try to access it either through NPM or Tailscale, it cannot be found either. Unfortunately I'm still kinda inexperienced when it comes to TrueNAS and everything up to this point has actually been fairly easy once I figured out the absolute basics of TrueNAS.

I have a fairly irritating issue with TrueNAS where my Xubuntu VM I use for Snipe-IT cannot be picked up by the NPM app (kinda sucks as I do need to use it outside of my house on occasion), and kind of by extent other apps can't access it (such as Tailscale). I'm not really sure what I've done wrong, but I know that setting the VM to be on a bridge or just bonded to host makes zero difference. My app address pool is still set to the default of 172.17.0.0, so the only thing I haven't tried at the risk of breaking everything was setting this to 192.168.1.0 as that's what the rest of my network uses. Any ideas?

Dropped the laptop I use for work shit in the parking lot like a fuckin dumbass and broke the hinge + corner of the chassis so I ended up throwing down a couple bids on this. Everything still works fine on my laptop so I got this initially to just do a motherboard, keyboard, and screen swap as mine has the dedicated graphics, a better condition keyboard, and the nice 1080p screen. However... Upon further reconsideration I think I'm just gonna swap the keyboard, screen, and CPU. Right now I have to run Kubuntu with a Windows 10 VM since Windows hardlocks as soon as the AMD driver loads (which is fine as even then it's still faster than the Skylake HP it replaced), but at the same time nothing I do requires a dedicated graphics chip AND Windows so I'm totally fine with just running the iGPU and getting way better battery life. Eventually I might end up throwing the quad-core i7 in it with 16GB of RAM, but as it sits the dual-core i7 and 8GB I have now is more than enough to essentially be an Office 2021 + Teams slave.
