The content creator? I don’t know anything about him. The video stands on it’s own merits though. It seems well researched and quite balanced.

My server is usually between 30w-40w (that’s about 20-25p per day electricity cost in the UK at 25p/kwH).

That’s with the aforementioned processor/ram, a Gigabyte A520M motherboard, 1 case fan, the stock cooler, a 120gb 2.5" SSD, 2 4TB 3.5" HDDs and 1 8TB 3.5" HDD (all drives always spinning).

It’s running OpenMediaVault as OS and 5 docker containers 24/7 (Flatnotes, FreshRSS, Kavita, qBittorrent and RecipeSage). Other than that I use it for media access from a MiniPC running Debian w/ Kodi accessing it via SMB (the server doesn’t transcode).

Regarding Incogni, this video explains them pretty well

Looking at the price of that Ugreen DH4300 (in the UK) it’s about 30% more than I paid to build my own server (Ryzen 5 3400g /w 16gb ddr4). If you can get second hand ddr4 for a decent price it’ll probably still be a cheaper option and allows you to do your own maintenance/repairs in the future.

Aren’t parental controls already in place on most mainstream things?

I’m not sure how much more accommodating for the less technically inclined it can get than settings > parental controls > enable.

The difference between a million and a billion dollars is roughly a billion dollars.

My favourite illustration of this is…

1 million seconds = 12 days

1 billion seconds = 32 years

I’ve been enjoying using FreshRSS, RecipeSage, Kavita (ebook library/reader) and Flatnotes. My server OS is OpenMediaVault which i’ve been very happy with.

He also doesn’t live off any income. His liquid cash comes from loans against assets which aren’t taxed like income.

Here’s a pretty good video that explains what Incogni and their ilk are and aren’t.

Thanks, that got a big laugh out of me.

I’d much rather have to find space for my server than for 1000s of Blu-rays/DVDs/CDs.

50w… holy shit!

My server with 1 SSD, 3 HDDs running multiple docker containers doesn’t usually pull more than 35-40w.

My router tops out at 8w and my wireless access point at 5w IIRC.

If you mean games with anti-cheat then it’s the developers of either the game and/or the anti-cheat who don’t support proton, not the other way round.

Break free from Google! By buying a Google phone…

That was certainly one of the articles of all time.

Linux advocates would likely say that ChromeOS isn’t ‘real’ Linux because it’s specifically made for the mass market.

It’s not a purity test. Most people just don’t mean ChromeOS when they say Linux.

Nevertheless, however easy it might be use Gnome, or KDE, or any of the rest, there hasn’t been a mass migration from Windows.

Why? Because there’s still too much, well… Linux in there.

No, it’s because most people don’t know what Linux, an OS or an ISO is and wouldn’t know where to start changing their operating system if they even realise it’s a possibility.

This article is just the author tearing down a succession of strawmen of his own making + some big linux NIMBY vibes.

She has such a great channel. Happy to see it getting posted around here.

IQ doesn’t work, it’s pseudoscience. The only thing a high IQ means is that you’re good at taking IQ tests.

I guess it’s fixed now… there are 61 mentions of Epstein on his page lol.

Yeah, it’s definitely not ideal but £110 brand new made me get over it :D

Hopefully they continue the repairability and do something better with the OS in the future.
