@julie no, new in box

@ariadne isn't the entire point of best buy that you don't have to take a risk from dodgy online retailers who might sell you counterfeit goods?

@ariadne can you share a bit about your storage setup?

[ariadne@social.treehouse.systems]

@tuananh there’s not much interesting going on there. i use local nvme storage for all of my machines whenever possible. that’s it, that’s the story
