Using ChatGPT for Conferencing and Feedback

I've used conferencing for years as my main form of feedback and assessment. I stopped collecting piles of books, stopped writing margin notes that no-one ever read, and stopped correcting work like a human spell-checker. Aside from the hours of time saved by not "correcting" work, I also built stronger relationships with students as a result of regularly sitting with them 1:1 to go through their work. At the moment, ChatGPT has been banned by the Department of Education in most states […]

Hi Fedi!
My wife is a biology teacher and she wants to use flashcards for class. She found Quizlet, but it's behind a paywall.
Can anyone recommend a selfhostable Quizlet alternative?

After I updated my storage from 12 TiB to 40 TiB for Jellyfin, when a scheduled scan starts, the jellyfin container (in Kubernetes) starts to eat up all my CPU and memory, and the jellyfin will be stuck/frozen... A container restart always fix the problem, but I don't want to manually (or automatically) restart my containers.

I'm on 10.10.7, Jellyfin is running on SSD, and I didn't have this problem yet.
Anybody experienced this? What should I change?

I know a lot of folks are #Selfhosting big storage here, so this is a question for you!
Also, I follow you @stefano and @gyptazy and know you have hands on experience with this, hence the tagging.

I plan to upgrade my #Proxmox storage with 4 12+TB disk (mostly for expendable data, don't really care if I lost lot data if a disk dies, but they will be in #zfs raidz-1).

So for my current budge I'm thinking about buying WD Red Pro 12TB or I also found Toshiba Enterprise MG Series 20TB (MG10ACA20TE).

Do you recommend any of this, or can you help me find better disks?

Thanks for your help!
