You know how people don’t like paying for streaming services because they have enshittified and grown more expensive?

Yeah, you’re just doing that for your own self hosted service.

You know, I definitely didn’t even think about that.

Spira would be okay as long as I avoid living anywhere Sin would attack.

I don’t see any reason that there needed to be a remake at all.

Used workstations are great for home theater purposes. I’ve got a Dell SFF on one TV and a Lenovo 1L machine on another.

Barakamon. Super cozy story of a man moving to a small island and learning/improving while interacting with the locals (and a bit of a rascal child). Great series. I’ve rewatched it several times.

GameCube and PS2 games work incredibly well on the Steam Deck. Some PS3 and Xbox 360 as well. I’ve played through several PS2 games and all of TLoZ Windwaker on my deck.

That’s okay, it had to be done.

You’re right, but it does still work.

Downloading music from YouTube will get you MP3s, but they will have gone through the YT compression algorithms.

Use Deemix instead. Downloads MP3s straight from the Deezer servers with all metadata and album art.

Everyone else has described the complications that a Mac mini would have. So why not consider something else? Lenovo, HP, and Dell make 1l ultra small form factor PCs and they’re pretty cheap on eBay. They’re also low power. Search for Tiny Mini Micro to find information.

I have three Lenovo Thinkcentre machines - two with 32gb RAM and one with 64gb RAM - running my Proxmox VE cluster. Highly recommend using those small machines instead of a Mac mini.

Currently watching Yuru Camp S03 and Unnamed Memories. Unnamed Memories was a total surprise for me.

We use Slack for those of us on the IT team, but Teams for everyone else. I despise Teams.

This is what everyone here is missing. They were unprofitable before and are net positive now. The cost cutting and business changes are working.

Just out of curiosity, what drive configuration are you running?

Exactly. This is a terrible idea. I’m fairly certain that anyone caught doing this would be immediately fired at some companies.

I use teams on a daily basis for work, so I understand it can be a phone replacement. That doesn’t negate the issue though. The whole thing is a distraction from driving.

That is a terrible idea, we need fewer people talking while on the road. Not people joining in on an entire meeting.

Risking sounding like a broken record, I always suggest Tiny/Mini/Micro 1L form factor office PCs. Lenovo, Dell, and HP all create ultra small office PCs that make great low power servers. A Pi will use 5-9w at idle, while these PCs will use 11-13w idle. They also use more standard components such as NVME drives, 2.5" drives, and replaceable RAM. Easy to find under $100 USD used, I’m sure you can find them under 100 euro.

LineageOS and simply not installing Google Apps.
