Wow, never recommending zorin to anyone again. Switching from gecko to chromium is a dumb move.

Most VPSes I use offer a slower (200mbps) connection without a data cap for free.

Not dead enough. We need to bully all high profile plex users such as Linus (tech tip man) into switching to Jellyfin.

Junior/mid here. AI helps me solve annoying problems, get through the boring monotonous stuff faster and do more of the fun high level or creative stuff. (I’m mostly a frontend dev)

“How can xitter lead someone to RHEL?”

“Ooooh I get it”

Make the manual super short, pretty, interactive, unobtrusive and spread it around the system contextually. Then users might “read” it.

The most optimal plex setting is Jellyfin

Same 😓

This happened to me this week

So unsnapped ElementaryOS?

Idk I didn’t make that meme. I prefer JPEG XL anyway.

I am proud to report that I have ascended to the last stage. Just gotta start writing things down now.

Bruh just use smb

Currently have a setup similar to yours, except the chip is N100 (12th gen Intel, 4 e-cores) and 16 gigs of ram. Running Jellyfin with hardware accelerated transcoding into VP9 and HEVC just fine. Nextcloud is ok too, kinda slow but I think that’s because of my networking.

It’s one of the cheapest pre made n100 mini PCs I could find on Amazon.

Just make sure that you have enough IO for your needs. Mine has only three usb ports, I plugged in two usb hard drives and a Zigbee dongle and now I’m out of ports. Gonna have to get a hub now.

If you have the money I’d recommend getting a mini pc with an amd ryzen apu.

Bro what

Well, Apple aren’t Boeing.

I would like to think that the days of Steve Jobs storming into a meeting and firing everyone are past us.

Servers are just really big computers. I started off with a Chinese Raspberry Pi clone, then upgraded to an old mac mini + mini pc + a cheap cloud server (VPS). As you can see, you can turn any old computer into a server.

The cloud is expensive but reliable. Having your own server is cheap but it will go offline with every network fault or brownout. If you’re serious about self hosting I suggest buying a UPS.

Whatever computer you decide to use as a server, make sure it is quiet. When I first started, I tried to use an old 2010 aah workstation as a server, but the fans were so loud I couldn’t sleep, it was driving me crazy.
