Then explain why one can successfully use and old synology to “mark” drives as “authentic synology” and move them into a newer DSM model to use them.

Because they have to have a way for legacy users to maintain functionality. Going forward though, new drives in new devices are handled differently. It’s basically a quality control type thing - they’re providing the support and warranty for them, so they’re only “guaranteeing” that their checks work on their drives. That makes sense. They don’t want to be on the hook for saying that a drive that isn’t theirs was perfectly healthy and then it drops dead an hour later and you lose all your data.

As explained ad nauseum on various yt channels, having a hw compatibility list makes sense for users likely to buy support, like business users.

Again though, the disks still work. The compatibility lists simply tell you if they are officially supported and will get certain features.

But add on top of it that there is no functional hardware difference between certified and non-certified, and it becomes pretty clear that Synology is to be avoided.

Avoiding them because of missing a few proprietary synology disk health checks is such a strange thing to do lol. You won’t get synologys disk health checks if you were to make your own server, so why is not having them on a synology a deal breaker?

Synology’s software is awful. Simply controlling NFS shares is an exercise in insanity, and don’t get me started on ACLs.

Strange, I’ve had no issue controlling NFS shares or ACLs. Have set up 4 Synology NAS’s, with shares out the wahzoo. No problems. User error maybe?

Further, synology is a real bastard company currently trying to enshittify hardware (disk) upgrades, among other terrible practices:

That disk upgrade thing was a mountain out of a molehill. All they are doing is reserving some of their disk health features for synology branded disks because they’re the only ones they can verify meet their standards for their software.

Synology NAS’s are amazing, can’t recommend them enough. Their software is what makes them so good.

You can run Plex server on them, can run docker containers for all your *arr services and even a container with a VPN for torrentin (all depends on the model obviously).

randomly generated username

supports legal immigration, dislikes criminals and law breakers

Randomly generated username.

Why are we ok with it? No one said they’re ok with it. I was simply commenting on the lies the NYT are spreading.

So approximately 1 per week. Seems reasonable enough.

They aren’t “daily intelligence briefings”, they’re “intelligence briefings”. Basically no president ever attended them daily.

The illegal ones? No, they’re not - hence being illegal immigrants lol.

detained illegal immigrants

FTFY NY Times.

It’s also a lie. They’re not “trying to”, they said that it is something that they might consider. It has been done 4 times before too.

Pardon them of any and all crimes over the last 11 years?

It’s funny that in this case the immigration officials were following due process, and people in here are crying about how bad it is.

When have you had to be married to travel together? Never, and there’s nothing to indicate that would ever be a thing introduced. Stop hand wringing.

Introduced but will be denied.

That’s fine if they’re true - I have no idea who this woman is or what she’s done. All I know is that she is a prosecutor so is qualified for the job of prosecutor.

Yes, Rob Schneider is an actor. He is perfectly qualified to be hired in an acting role, just like how this prosecutor is perfectly qualified to be hired in a prosecutor role.

Least qualified? She’s a former prosecutor.

“Fox News host and former prosecutor Jeanine Pirro” just doesn’t have the same outrage grabbing ring to it, does it?

The government isn’t invading.

The President of the USA decides if there is an invasion or predatory incursion, that’s the point. Not congress, not you - the president.

The president does have the power during wartime… which the president doesnt get to decide, congress does.

I don’t know how many times it needs to be pointed out to you, because even your own links specifically say it, but you’re wrong. It can be invoked during wartime OR when there is an invasion or predatory incursion which is at the discretion of the President. “Or” is the key word here that you don’t seem to be understanding.

Congress decides when it is “wartime”.

The President decides when there is an ongoing invasion or predatory incursion.

I did, there is no ongoing invasion OR predatory incursion. There’s the issue

According to you, but you don’t get to decide that. According to the President however, who DOES get to decide if there is, there is. Your own links say this.

If you don’t like that the President has the power to do this under the Alien Enemy Act, you should say that instead of saying that the President doesn’t have the power to do it when he clearly does.

Explain how your Mental gymnastics is twisting the literal text into something it’s not, and I’ll apologize. Give me a line by line of the actual text, not an interpretation. I came with facts. You’ve come with feelings.

Your entire point is based on the fact that only congress can declare war, and the act can only be invoked during war.

That point is 100% incorrect, as shown by your own links. Your own links say it can also be invoked during an invasion, and that an invasion can be declared by the President.

I haven’t come with “feelings”, I’ve come with facts - fact that you have also provided but misunderstood.
