there’s still not really sd cards or flash drives bigger than 1tb

There are actually 2tb microSD cards now, and 4tb flash drives

So rent a budget VPS and tunnel your home server through it?

Why rent? If you have fiber and aren’t behind CGNAT you can host from your home

5TB requires you to be a company??? My personal NAS already has 92TB

You know this is more than enough reason to fire you once your IT department finds out

Most manufacturers only list average power draw, but in HDR mode you can get much higher peak power useage.

This website also lists peak power draw for many TVs, in this example the Bravia 9 85 inch has a peak of 380W

Your research would be incorrect

Gigantic 80" screens generally draw something like 120W

In HDR mode they can draw a lot more than that for short peaks

Yes. I run PopOS and Hackintosh on my Thinkpad, use the new M4 Mac Mini as my main desktop (with hopes of Asahi Linux support in the future), and run unRAID on my completely overpowered Ryzen 5900x NAS, where I have a Win10 LTSC VM for the rare occasion I need to run software that only runs on x86 Windows.

I would prefer to only use Linux if I could, but MacOS is very competent and far superior to Windows in my opinion. I have never had any issues accessing my unRAID shares on it

When people refer to “the Hummer” they almost always mean the H1

I didn’t buy my EV for sustainability reasons, I bought it because it was the most cost effective and convenient commuter car for my specific driving profile.

The sustainability is just a nice bonus for me that I don’t care too much about.

On the other hand printers always work out of the box on Linux without even installing any drivers, whilst getting them go work on Windows can often be a nightmare

OK, do you want me to tell 50 users of my Plex server that they can no longer use their shitty 10 year old smart TV to watch my movie library, and instead have to pay money buy a chromecast dongle, and then get a completely different UI and lose all their view progress on TV series? They’d just go back to paying for Netflix.

And yes, I have users that struggle even with the Plex app. My father can’t figure out how to use his dumb-phone to call a contact, and is only able to accept incoming calls. It took months to teach him how to use the Plex app, switching him to a different one will take just as long

Yes. I have a lifetime Plex pass, and I donated to Jellyfin as well. Looking forward to the day I can uninstall Plex and no longer worry about them potentially giving my data to Media companies so they can sue for piracy

The problem with Jellyfin is that it’s not a viable alternative for people hosting a Plex server for their family and friends. If you are the only 8ne using your server it’s fine, but Jellyfin doesn’t have working apps for every platform, and the ones that have a Jellyfin client available are not nearly as user friendly.

They also offer free tunneling for people that can’t port-forward because they are locked behind cgnat. To be fair, the tunneling is limited to potato quality 2mbps bitrate, but that is a significant cost to them still

Just leave the area and come back to your pots being respawned. Infinite money glitch

This is not about “having the energy” to do it. It takes discipline, not motivation, to work out before work every morning. Motivation is fleeting for everyone. You just suck it up, get to the gym, and by the time you finished your workout you are glad you did it

Don’t forget your social life deteriorating because you’re working or sleeping whilst your friends are meeting up
