Or OpenWRT on a thrift store Linksys

Then run it as your user. It’s not best practice but you do you

edit: lol

Is your user in the sudo group? The user transmission should not be

I’m hooked on my brother with a wifi print server now. All three major OS in our house, I just make sure the printer stays updated

Now available as a .stl file!

I mean, I’m sure they have breadboards set up. It’s not like they are just sitting around waiting for manna from heaven.

yeah, but same basic parts. Same APU, smaller node. slightly faster RAM

That would be absolutely wonderful. If they could somehow future-proof their board design even if you had to have tech skills to replace it, enthusiasts could do it on their own and people who don’t want to could take it to the local tech repair shop.

The article says “no need for steam deck 2”. Valve is on record saying they wouldn’t do an incremental upgrade, they want to wait until there’s a major advance in the available technology.

Unstable branch is always Sid, 'cause he’s so unstable. They just changed experimental to rc-buggy.

I know you named Sid, but it’s a rolling release so it never gets a new name.

The drives you’re seeing with the “too good to be true” pricing are what most people call “white label” drives. From what I understand, it’s either refurbished or something that didn’t pass the big-brand QC so they don’t get the brand name. Slap a white label on it and ship it.

WD, Seagate, Toshiba will all have approximate price parity through various levels of HDDs. You can base your shopping on these prices for first quality drives. I like WD. Currently I’m running zfs raidz2 (one parity drive) on four drives. Two are WD, one Seagate, one Toshiba. No problems yet but this array has only been on for 9 months. Prior to that I had a 2-disk striped raid with 2x 4tb WD blue drives and it ran for 8 years without an error.

… I think we do?

truenas: plex/jellyfin, *arr stack

working on another (debian) machine to run nextcloud and immich, plan is to have a failover. Redundant machine would ideally be wake on LAN to save power. I already have commodity hardware for these two identical machines, otherwise I’d probably just go for a more robust single machine.

Mikrotik routerboard out front providing wireguard for one subnet. pi4 providing pihole on the wireguard subnet. This is a new router and I’m very happy with it. This coming weekend the goal is to correctly implement mangle rules (policy based routing) to combine my two WAN connections seamlessly.

So very standard setup for selfhosting with the exception of two ISPs

truenas is easiest to manage through the web service, debian ssh and VNC, mikrotik’s WInBox is just amazing, but it’s also the first “grown up” router software I’ve ever used. It’s so much better than managing PF through a ssh session.

Looks like Pancake Sailor is the free one, there are a couple other VR games the company makes that are on sail (heh) right now.
