Do you have an old raspberry pi or laptop? Netbootxyz will run on a potato with ethernet.

I have NetBoot.xyz on my network for ipxe booting. They have memtest as a boot image, ran that for a few days. I don’t remember if it found the stick that was bad or if I just started pulling and booting and process of elimination.

Have you made sure your ram modules are all good? Was getting funky behavior with truenas in a proxmox vm, come to find out one of my 32gb sticks was bad. Removed the stick, no funky behavior. Replaced with a different stick, been solid since, maybe a year and a half on now.

It states here that the 9300 is quicksync enabled, so should have no problem with nvec @4k. How many streams? I don’t know that one.

Yea, but soon we’ll have no states to vpn to, and we will have to start using the Quebec servers, then all the websites will be in French and I’ll have to learn a new language.

Everyone is mentioning nvidia, but amds rocm has improved tremendously in the last few years, making a 6900xt 16gb an attractive option for me. I currently have a 6700xt 12gb that works no problem with ollama and comfyui, and an instinct mi25 16gb that works with some fiddling as well. From what I understand, an mi50 32gb requires less fiddling. However the instinct line is passively cooled, so finding a way to cool it might be a reason to stay away from them.

Edit: I should add, my experience is on a few Linux distributions, I can not attest to the experience on windows.

Almost everything I have runs Debian or NixOS, so……… once a month? Except for VMs I’m playing around with, which usually get updated every time I log into them, or instal stuff.

I use proxmox because I am a tinkerer and VMs help me tinker without worrying about making major mistakes that might brick my server. If I want to try something new, just spin up a test VM and try it out, the rest of my stacks are safe and if I muck up the test VM I’m tinkering with, just delete it and start again.

I started with KVM-QEMU, which proxmox is based on, with virt-manager front end. Can do all the same things, but can be installed on most distros. Will let you get your feet wet with VMs without having to format and install proxmox.

Tdarr is what I use to unify my media. It does a good job of converting my files to h265. Runs in the background with my tesla p4 transcoding 3 streams at a time. Ripped through my 30ish tb library in a few days. It can change bitrate and resolution as well, but I haven’t had the time to play around with that yet. Can watch you library for change and transcode automatically, or you can run it when you like.

Did you see him repressing me?

No regurts!

Please, no…. Please keep one thing sacred from my childhood. This movie needs no sequel/remake/reboot or musical made from it. Clean up the film, release in 4K and in theaters, and allow another generation to have this one small thing that was done so well and unchanged by capitalistic greed.

Where are they getting the money for the games? Those are expensive as shit, I’m still making do with games I bought decades ago because I can’t afford new ones.

How are they eating? Food is fucking expensive, are they getting free food as well?

How are they paying rent? Have to have a roof over your head and electricity in your walls to play video games all day.

This mother fucker thinks all guys are like his son, lazy mother fuckers mooching off their parents. What a dumb, ignorant moron.

I can’t afford the ticket and concessions, let alone the gas to drive there. $200 for one night’s entertainment or 4 days of food for a family of four and a dog?

If this is all happening wirelessly, that could be your problem. Looks like you have a 4g modem with a built in router. Is anything in the aar stack connected to the router through Ethernet, or is everything using WiFi? Try hooking the laptop up to one of the lan ports on the back of your router, see if that helps things.

Could also just be all the aar apps doing their thing for the first time, pulling from databases, downloading cover art, etc. once your library is all set up, they should calm down. Only way to really check this is to log into your router and see who the loudest talker is.

Stop attacking me!

Then you forget or misremember the name of the site or idea, and it’s just lost in a sea of broken dreams.

Perfectly fine. Everyone knows him for a founder of Apple, so assumptions are made.

Not trying to be “that guy” but Woz is not and never was a CEO of Apple. He was the smart guy Jobs stole everything from because Woz just wanted to make neat things and not have to sell it.

Watch some YouTube channels like Jeff Geerling or Hardware Haven. They along with others, made the daunting task or self hosting manageable for me. Great tips with helpful pointers, and they lay things out fairly well, on their videos and their websites.
