224: Ryzen Upgrades, Omen Tweaks, and a TrueNAS Franken‑NAS | Linux Out Loud 126

Description: Nate hosts a hardware‑heavy patch day as Wendy upgrades her main workstation from a Ryzen 9 3900X to a 5950X, experiments with 3D‑printed retro ITX cases, and shares updates on her MOVA V50 robot vacuum and UniFi travel router. Matt tunes an HP Omen Transcend 14 with OmenCTL and gives an MSI Trident 3 a GPU transplant, while Nate resurrects a retired Dell R740 into a TrueNAS‑powered “Franken‑NAS” built from leftover 16 TB drives and budget SFP+.
