I had to stream the chiefs a while back… got a great stream from Australia. Lol
Hilarious to run a connection literally around the world to watch nfl

Worked in the docudrama “the Flintstones”
Got Jurassic Park in 4k on my Plex server.
Looks absolutely amazing still.
JLH was unbelievably hot in that movie. that blue shirt and skirt. Whew.
Hit me right in the late teens.
Probably fortnight or rocket league if I were guessing.
I dual booted for ages between random Linux installs and windows because of a couple games.
The only way I found that windows wouldn’t fuck with the bootloader was to keep windows on a separate drive.
Yeah I’ll give you that… kits from Amazon are absolutely over priced junk. And I wouldn’t suggest someone buying them. It was just a quick search.
Idk I guess I’m just still burnt by them focusing on businesses and not hobby folks back in the day. But hey gotta keep the lights on.
But yeah thanks for the discussion. I’m glad to hear there are still folks passionate about pi and the wacky stuff you can do with them. :)

Vilros Raspberry Pi 5 Starter Kit MAX - Turbo Cooled Aluminum - (128GB Edition) - (8GB RAM) https://a.co/d/fOxU3pq
Amazon selling the pi 5 kit for $160 bucks.
The trouble with pi now is you have to have so much other stuff to get it to work.
And then it’s still running off an SD card
If you aren’t afraid of used . There’s a ton of older mini PCs on eBay for $60ish.
Idk I have a pi running right now… and I hate that they are so expensive. I love raspberry pi … but for the cost… I can get something with much better performance for the same money or cheaper.
And I’m in the US
100% a n100 Beelink box @$150 is cheaper than a pi at this point.
Which is a shame.
When I was getting content from mega, I used filebot to rename.
The paid version is $6 it’s absolutely worth it
Trash guides and the arrs.
Sonarr does TV stuff and renames then to meet say Plex standards.
So my process is… Add TV show to sonarr use sabnzbd to download and sonarr moves and renames the show which then appears in Plex.
But like I said… Trash guides will get you sorted
Edit: it’ll be quicker in a lot of cases to download rather than rip

Looks like it’s print on demand so they aren’t paying to house a large warehouse of stock.
My wife who is a huge Minecraft fan has been playing stardew valley with me.
She also loves the portal 2 coop
It’s a visio.
Literally the cheapest 32inch TV that best buy had.
It’s absolutely unusable with the ads disabled.
Horrific television.
Pihole on your network… And block Internet access to the TV…
Tho… a while back the wife and I bought a dirt cheap 32 inch TV from bestbuy… it will literally turn itself on to deliver an advertisement if you power it off while in an app. (Skipping the home page)
Pihole crashes it.
We bought it for watching football outside so it’s unplugged for the majority of the year… but that’s still absolutely unacceptable. Imho
I’m not amd guy… I’ve used Intel and Nvidia for ages and ages… when my last upgrade failed hardware wise… I bought a Intel minipc from Beelink with an Intel ultra 5 125h.
It came with windows 11.
I’m a dad of a 1 yr old. who is playing stardew with his wife right now.
Ive formatted a handful of times to different Linux distros to see which felt better for me on this PC.
Manjaro, kubuntu, Debian, kde neon.
Currently I’m running kde neon. Out of the box it likes to reboot on updates… so I found a non-sudo needed cli command to fix that. (It’s a setting apparently in settings)
Anyway…l say all this to say… the way steam is now… and how graphics cards are… you can pretty well run what you want.
Granted it’s antidotal from me… But as long as you’re not buying the absolute latest stuff from a hardware vendor… You’d be fine.
If I was buying now I’d probably not buy the Intel chips that are having troubles but the gen before that… and probably some 3xxx Nvidia card.
And not hesitate to run any distro I wanted.
Ps I like apt… because that’s what I’m comfy with. So I tend to use distros that use apt. Tho manjaro is nice because of the aur… But they have issues company wise
100% of the people that come in contact with dihydrogen monoxide die.

I did perfect media server It’s got mergerfs for splitting data and using disks in various sizes .and snapraid for a level of redundancy. Tho raid isn’t backup.
That said I’m now running this setup on a n100 machine with a qnap tl-800c jbod USB c box.
Works great for downloads / Plex and home server needs.
The b100 chip isn’t amazing… Don’t get me wrong but it works really well for Plex.
Hope this all makes sense. I’m on mobile with out my glasses. Lol
I would go wired… get a switch, run an Ethernet cable from the dorm wall to the switch then out from your switch to your PC.
That said the university is probably handling DHCP and dns… You could use a USB WiFi plug to generate a hotspot off your PC. if you wanted to run your own wifi…
But honestly the dorms WiFi with you using a VPN to a major service is probably easier everyday use wise.
Let me just say this… my college lost WiFi connectivity for about 2 months once when I was there.
The only people who had WiFi were the folks connected to the pirate wireless. Because folks were doing the wired device --> hotspot deal with their desktops.
So might not hurt to be prepared.
Also… The dns settings for your device… you should set those. If you use DNS from your university… It lets them control what you can and cannot see on the net.
