We’re looking into doing all sorts of digital backups of photos lately, (portable hard drives and then in a fire/water proof safe). My other thought was do a home-based personal cloud/media library with an old computer maybe update a few parts.
Anyone done something like that? We’ve got each room hardwired with CAT5 and a newtwork switch for internet. I’m wondering if I can piggy back on the network and make our own private cloud and use it as a media library for digital copies of movies and photos.
Thanks for the information in advance!
I did this years ago when Microsoft made a product called Home Server. Tried v1 and v2 and gave up on it to just use their cloud.
It's fine for keeping stuff "in house" and relatively secure but it's still plugged in to the net and only as secure as you keep it. If I wanted to do it again I would just use WD's MyCloud instead of building a NAS. The software for MyCloud is supposed to be a little more family friendly.

I know many of you just want this thread to die or be deleted but I thought I'd pass this along. I spend a lot of time in the Cayman's. I also have a second home here and over the last 30+ years have a lot of local Caymanian friends. I'm currently down here for part of the winter and many of the locals are fcuking furious over the shithole comment. So what I'm imparting to you is if you're a Trump supporter keep it to yourself you'll get better service here. Take it for what you will.
The decision to lock or close this thread isn't political...it's about making LP great again

I couldn't agree more! It is truly sad. I personally think it has already changed this forum unfortunately. This needs to go away. I will never speak on this subject because you will never change the mind of a democrat or a republican...no matter what takes place or what result the President has...
Delete this thread before it kills off LP...get back to LP...talk politics elsewhere please...
Why don't we exercise democracy right here and poll to delete this thread?

Peaky Blinders is my current fav
Wasn't sure how I would feel based on the premise but really into it.
from wiki "Peaky Blinders is a British television crime drama based upon the exploits of the Peaky Blinders gang, and is set in Birmingham, England in the aftermath of World War I. The series, created by Steven Knight and produced by Caryn Mandabach Productions and Tiger Aspect Productions, centres on stars Cillian Murphy as Tommy Shelby, the gang's leader, and Sam Neill as Chester Campbell, a commissioned detective tasked with suppressing the gang."
its seasons are short with 6 eposides but it has 4 seasons and 5th is coming.
Just binged all 4 seasons...worth it

Nope. No Bluetooth. That I could understand and I know Bluetooth can easily be hacked. Recently people have been calling me and half my calls go straight to voicemail for those people and my phone never rings, even when I'm on wifi and have signal.

"Extraordinary presidential compound-one of the world's safest homes for life and personal property. Modern fortress with commanding views designed and fortified to "live to die another day" standards by global security expert Al Corbi. Self-sustaining water and power supply, thirty capacity car vault, art museum, three kitchens included. Catering and summer. Infinity pool, bowling alley, gun range, game room, solarium, spa, theater, wine cellar and room, vault, command center, two commercial elevators, geothermal systems. Some photos are only representative, as the property purposefully awaits final personalization."

My particular favorite...Jupiter
Loved it....just north of West Palm and weekend drive to Orlando or Miami is a piece of cake.
Definitely miss it compared to Atlanta but c'est la vie.
Down sides are the drives are flat and straight and real estate tax and insurance (home and car) is a bit stiff.

Has anyone here been a member of theirs in the past or present? I am terrible at meeting new people or talking to people I am not used to. And it takes me quite a while to warm up to people. I am hoping this group could help with this. Anyone have any experiences they would like to share?
Funny you bring this up. I am joining them as a personal/professional goal for 2016
I'm hoping they can help me kick my mumbling and speed-talking to the curb.

Thinking about getting into competition rimfire pistol shooting and looking at the Ruger Mk IV. Any words of advice or other recommendations? My eyes aren't what they used to be and I'm staying under $1k for initial equipment buy-in. Also want to stay with iron sights...no optics for the foreseeable future.
