Yes Bulls will charge a red flag!

So I finally pulled the upgrade trigger on my home server. I now have an Intel 11th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-11800H process embedded into a random Asian motherboard with 64GBs of DDR4 RAM with a 2TB Cache drive and 4 SATA ports. I now have an iGPU that will transcode all my data.
New TDP is 35 to 45 watts Max TDP with a CPUBenchmark of 20955.
Overall, I’m quite happy so far….tbd.
I need some newer HDDs for UNRAID.
Just cause their on the interwebs dosen’t me dem true:
certificated: not a word. type it, it comes up with red squiggly lines under it, so can’t be true word! (okay, maybe I mistyped it)

Happy Birth Day Izzi –
Why’s my phone not booting? No clue, running Pixel 4XL with Android 12 Beta 3 that I flashed fine yesterday. I was not receiving calls/video chats/ text from jes. Seems like my pohne what locked, so I rebooted it… boot looped. No clue what happened. I’ve been trying to keep the stock setup, keep my apps up to date and all that jazz, but It failed me today. I’ve been w/o a phone for the past 5 hours. I kept seeing the phone via abd while I was in SDK, but I could not access anything. Well, they hide the menu from me. I just needed to find this in the on the internet. I just flashed a OTA, lets see if it works. If not, I’m going back to Android 11 and trying again.
I might let it run overnight, but it ususally does not take this long
what worked:
Update: 11pm – still boot looping, off to bed.
