Episode 278: Intro to Storage Part 2

In episode 274 we introduced you to block storage, in this episode we build on that to talk about storage types, and using those storage types with NAS and SAN storage. -- During The Show -- 02:11 Matrix Bridges - William JMP.chat (https://jmp.chat/) Matrix Bridge Encryption 05:30 Core Switch for Church - Kevin F5 Load Balancer 99% of the time other brands are fine HP 1950 or 1920 switches Dell Switches Pass All VLan Traffic 11:30 Google Collecting Data from phones - Charlie Register Article (https://www.theregister.com/2022/03/21/google_messages_gdpr/) Lineage OS (https://lineageos.org/) GraphineOS (https://grapheneos.org/) 21:71 Sunjam Asks If my local ISP is providing us 10G fiber...where do I get the hardware to handle it residentally? Commodity does not seem to support beyond 2.5G WAN when I checked, TIP Link or Netgear Orbi routers are costing $300-$400. PFSense/OPNSense (https://opnsense.org/) + 10 Gbps NIC Netgate 7100 1U ($1199) 23:50 JJ Asks There seems to be many anecdotal stories of how tech has improved health and saved people's lives. Especially with Apple Watches. Seems beneficial for those who want to have a little nudge for a healthier lifestyle. When does a product's benefits outweigh Open Source yearnings? PineTime is still a work in progress and seems a little too experimental for some. Pragmatism out of laziness vs out of necessity 28:53 Rusty Asks hello, I'm looking for an android app + nextcloud app combo, that will allow me to drop pins on a map, preferably with a photo, of Points of interest. Would like to use during hiking to mark potential camp spots. I'd like to be able to share this with my wife without sending a gpx file after each trip (hence the desire to utilize my nextcloud instance). If nothing for nextcloud, I'd still be open to other suggestions. Thanks!
