I haven’t settled on anything yet. I basically just want something off-the-shelf which I can run containers on and has good version of Synology Drive. But I just migrated from Windows to Linux, and am finding this to be a sticking point. Synology Drive is available on Linux without on-demand sync. QNap supports QSync on Linux but only for Ubuntu, and it seems like manually unpacking the dev file and installing doesn’t work with latest versions. Running NextCloud on QNap might be an option.

Hell I remember when USB on PCs was basically a set of pins on the motherboard and you had to buy the actual port assembly separately and hope there was somewhere reasonable on your case to mount it. Was going absolutely nowhere on PC until the iMac came and did away with all other ports and no peripherals built in.

that was the final straw for me to switch NAS vendors when I next upgrade.

That’s about a $600,000 savings for that quarter, for a company that reported $13.9 billion in revenue for Q3 2025.

The trans people they never knew they met.

I thought it was going to be a new form factor iPhone that could fit comfortably in your pocket.

See my vest! See my vest! It’s authentic gorilla chest!

It’s so great that Trump ended all of this. 😶

They’re British, so it should be Not Too Bad Britain.

Is it gonna pop up obnoxiously every time you start the program?

Your choice, there’s a checkbox to ask every time or not

Is it gonna demand that I create a new profile every time I sign in to Google?

I don’t recall anything like that, though I don’t recall that in Chrome either.

No, this is to make the desktop browser profiles work more like Chrome.

The new one is a much better experience. It works like profiles in chrome now. The old one is still there for you to use if you prefer.

What enclosure(s) did you use?

Synology confirmed the change in support tickets, explaining that both H.264 (AVC) and H.265 (HEVC) transcoding had been deliberately blocked at the kernel driver level. The company cited licensing costs for HEVC, even though AVC is license-free, and argued that most client devices already support native playback.

This is some bullshit. I have an old DS418+ I’ve been thinking to upgrade from. But with this change I won’t be getting another Synology.

Based on their reply, I think they’re definitely blaming Obama for it.
