There’s got to be a better way to do cross posts. When people/bots crosspost, my “All” feed gets cluttered with multiple copies of the same post. Maybe something like a drop-down showing all the instances and communities it’s posted to.

Edited to fix autocorrect…

Yeah, text and detail on a flag is just stupid. City logo sure, but if its entire purpose is to flap, Keep It Simple, Stupid.

Don’t dead open inside

Shoulda prayed louder…

The complete and utter lack of a mobile friendly interface is beyond frustrating. No android, i don’t want you to snap zoom to the search bar every fucking time i go to my stacks page!?

The US wouldn’t negotiate with a treasonous state.

When it gets stupid-humid in Texas, my phone thinks I’m trying to multitouch parts of the screen. Not world ending, but those tiny close buttons can be a pain…

Don’t use WordPress for static sites! Other poster mentioned straight up html, js, css with PHP if you’re feeling frisky. WordPress is so bloated and unnecessary for what you’re wanting to do.

If you’re close to a Microcenter, they should have a bunch of “sample” keyboards so you can find the switches you want. Nowadays, you can even build your own keyboard with swappable switches, so you can have different switches for your WASD keys, if you’re into that…

Can’t speak to cheap boxes, so usb might be the way, but I use a Zimaboard. Two built in SATA ports, and a pci-e daughter card gives me two more ports. Full disclosure, i don’t do anything more than 1080p, bad eyesight…

Throw some hard drives on it and baby, you got a stew home media server goin!

I “built” a Game Boy SP from parts found on eBay. If you can take your Pocket apart enough to get a part number, try googling for a replacement, should be a simple as plugging in a ribbon cable.

Democrats keep trying to increase minimum wage, read a fucking News source.

Portainer for docker stuff; CasaOS for RAM, CPU usage, disk drive monitoring, samba shares.

Casa also lets you access the file system, so when jellyfin fails to clear transcodes, I can go in with the web interface and delete the folder.

Same.

Jellyfin, Audiobookshelf, kavita = Media stack

Arr suite, Vpn, BitTorrent = Pirate stack

Edit:

CodeServer, git, esphome, home assistant = Code Stack

I’m not a shil for them, but I’ve been using a zimaboard as my main “server” with a raspi 4 clone running the *arr suite. 2 SATA connectors and a PCIe slot, I’ve got a daughter card with two more SATA spots, 2HDDs and 2SSDs. I’m powering the whole setup with an old pc power supply.

Yup, as soon as they started the mandatory login bullshit, I bounced. Companies keep adding this “feature” as a way to control your stuff: Doom on Switch, Halo Master Chief edition, nvidia, my fucking mouse(!?); all need a login for no other reason than to add a point of failure/killswitch.

I had a Netgear nighthawk r7800 with ddwrt, which finally crapped out. I went with the TP-link Deco Mesh router as a replacement, and so far it’s working better than the ddwrt router. There are versions with Wi-Fi 6, but i went with the “3 stations for ~$120” and haven’t had any problems with speed, since tht bottlenecks are usually external/cable modem related anyway.

My biggest selling point for the tp-link, it’s much easier to set a local dns, with a fallback to 1.1.1.1, something i could never get to work on ddwrt. So whenever my Jellyfin transcodes bring the Pihole to a screeching halt, it will at least fallback to external dns and not take the whole network with it.

I can also have a base module Ethernet connected to my pc in the office, another hooked up to the cable modem and zimaboard in the livingroom, and eventually, a raspi with a couple of low resource containers (pihole, home assistant, nginx). My goal is to hardwire as many things as i can for speed/signal noise purposes.

Glad i could help! My autism is finally helping someone at least.

I’m using a Netgear r7800 with ddwrt, with hopes to eventually move dhcp handling over to the Zima Board.

You’ve got me thinking about media streaming though, Zima uses the Intel quick sync for transcoding, so that might also have something to do with it. I eventually want to move to dedicated hardware for streaming, with some stronger hardware/software like an NVIDIA based solution. I do have an old graphics card kicking around, but i haven’t played with the pcie slot yet, so I’m not sure if that even a non starter?

I’m going to look into it more, since i don’t need 4k, but would be nice to have.

I’ve been using a Zima Board for my home network. I have the mid-range, 4Gb memory, 32GB onboard. It’s got two SATA ports, dual gigabit Ethernet, an Intel processor and PCI express port that I’m eventually going to use to run an old wifi card so i can isolate my IOT devices on a dedicated wifi network.

The only problem i have with it is RAM and transcoding. I have 22 containers running things from the “arr” suite (Prowlarr, Radarr, Readarr, ect), pihole, Jellyfin, Home Assistant, etc. I stay around 80% memory usage, so i should have gotten the 8GB. And forget about trying to transcode Blu-ray rips, which most of my devices can’t stream natively, so transcode is the only option. The audio stutters and playback pauses every ten seconds or so. I don’t have a problem streaming the file through samba, it just doesn’t have the “omph” that it needs for hardware transcoding of Blu-ray.

All that being said, i would get another one over the Raspi. Case/heatsink built in, SATA, PCI-E, dual gigabit, everything i need for a basic server.
