Proxmox. I’ve been using it and deployed jellyfin in a container, they have a bunch of one-click deployments and it’s great. Or you can just use a VM to group Docker containers together. Having a beautiful web interface is huge, Plus being able to access that interface from anywhere via WireGuard/Tailscale is great.

If you do choose to go down this route, there is a “no-nag proxmox” script somewhere, and it will disable some warnings and give you deeper customization options. Well worth a look!

I’m out of the loop, what is the advantage to coreboot?

Yes! It runs on an old gaming PC for me, without flaws

As do I, it is odd that he just guided them in though. At least, from the very grainy security footage he showed me a year ago

I used it for Overwatch before it was available on Steam, worked just fine for me!

BattleBots for the win, fantastic action!

Isn’t this the idea of having a chipset (Northbridge/Southbridge) on the board, to handle some of these IO tasks?

Also, I recently saw the Cathode Ray Dude video on Dell’s Brain Slug, where down basically hijacked the system with a low-power ARM SBC. I almost wonder if something like this would be possible, it would obviously require a revision but it would theoretically allow for suspended downloads, invite notifications, etc. It would also be fairly expensive and complex though

I believe it holds true for some single player games as well. I seem to remember Half-Life 2 not wanting to launch without Steam present, same for some other Source games. That really might not be the case though, I’m curious to do more testing… Either way, I watch enough Linux gaming on ARM SBCs (check out MicroLinux and LeePSPComputer on YouTube), can I see them using Goldberg from time to time to get games running with no Steam

You’d need something like the Goldberg Steam Emulator, since a lot of games rely on services and APIs that Steam provides

Theoretically no, they want people to ignore those built-in sponsorships, so the advertisers go straight to Google’s ad service

Church is meaningless if it’s not provided at a useful voltage though. What people truly care about is usable energy, which is what Watt-hours or Joules tell us. For example, I don’t care if my portable battery pack is 1000 milliamp hours, it’s meaningless unless I also know The battery chemistry used (nominal voltage) and the number of cells so I can figure out the actual potential energy.

Also, as a phone’s battery ages, if I’m not mistaken it truly does hold less “charge”, but I still believe the more useful metric is actual energy stored. That’s how it’s done in the EV scene, you use kWh to see how much energy is left in your battery. As the battery ages, “100%” represents slightly lesser energy (kWh)

I don’t find that to be a particularly compelling argument though. If you go to buy a lead acid battery for solar usage, for example, they give you the capacity based on a 20-hour discharge (or, 1/20th C rate). The same could absolutely be done for primary batteries

SwitchBot makes a retrofit deadbolt controller that straps onto the inside

Same here, I’m in my early/mid 20s and still see almost all of my high school friends multiple times per month. Plus we play games on Discord at least once or twice a week. I moved about a half hour out from town a few years back, which is probably the only reason we don’t see you each other even more often

Did you read the last part of the post?

I’m lucky - I’m in a Midwest town as well (between 1500 to 3000 people) in the US. A couple of years ago, fiber got installed. I’m getting about 900Mbps down and 99 up, no data cap, for $84/month. Before that I also had Mediacom, and the data cap was infuriating. So glad I could switch!
