Wires:

• Ethernet over preferred over WiFi for non portable desktops
• Audio gear : wired will sound better. Bluetooth headphones have batteries that almost certainly aren’t repairable.
• Peripherals, in the sane vein. I just don’t get having to charge a keyboard or mouse that sits on my desk all day.

I use cloud flare tunnel for my home server too. Are there any viable and somewhat easy alternatives?

“Michelle Obama is a man”

Namida. It’s excellent and the only thing I wish it had was a bitrate display

Xnconvert for some of these tasks

I use a raspberry pi 4 with 3 simultaneous sessions sometimes. Direct play, it works fine. It can’t transcode at all, though.

Had you installed the native programs or everything on docker?

Severe inconsistent quality issues in both software and hardware, treating their customers as beta testers, random motherboards dying, etc.

They are still riding the ‘flagship killer’ wave, but they are just as overpriced as Samsung, while offering unfinished products.

Wouldn’t recommend Oneplus anymore.

At the high end, Samsung has been pretty solid with their S lineup. The FE models are a good compromise as well. Pixels are a hit or miss, I’d recommend waiting for issues to surface before deciding on the 8/8 pro.

On the more budget - midrange side of things, Motorola has been doing a fairly solid job. They do have a lot of models, so some youtube videos should give you a fair idea on what’s right for you.

Oh damn. It was at auto, which I assumed was 100% (the lowest value)

I set it to 100 manually and it looks a lot better, thanks!

The UI is horrendously large on my 14 inch 1080p display too

A good general rule of thumb is to avoid the E and L series, and stick with the X, T or P series, or the X1 Carbons. Depending on your use case, choose one with the processor and display you want.

I have a T460 with linux on it that I use for work and it has been rock solid even when I spilled coffee on it.

I’m losing it in the hospital corridor lmao

Would suggest jellyfin over Plex due to the latter’s increasing corporate greed.

• Radar - for movies
• Sonarr - for series
• Prowlarr - for indexing

Optional:

• Jellyseer - a nice frontend for the above
• Bazarr - subtitles

This is a super simplified list, but the wikis are easy enough to get started with.

Edit: cjf has listed some useful links for the same

…no

Isn’t catturd one of Elon’s greatest fanboys? Lmao

I might be wrong on this though

It’ll buff out

Given he wasn’t around during the Madison era, I wouldn’t be surprised if he just quit

Emily to GN!

The point isn’t the profit, the point is that a new, maybe secret prototype could have fallen into competitors hands. LMG made a thousand on it? The small, indepedent company that made the water block just lost their main product
