If you don’t have a chance, or it’s made difficult by the design, few people will do it.But if it’s easy, maybe more people will do it. Show people a better alternative and some will take it. If the path is good, more will take it. That’s how you change the world.

That’s the point. If you have devices where parts can be replaced easily and, ideally, inexpensively, I’m happy to spend a little more money.And support the project.

Can you replace the battery at the Sonys?

Tenet. If you don’t know why, you haven’t seen it

I bought GTA 5 as a disc back then. You can’t even install it without the Rockstar Game Launcher. What do the discs do for me?

That’s good to know! Thanks. ATM I, and I think others, mostly watch 4K HDR content with a HEVC codec.

Me too. Especially because it supports h.265 10 bit and AV1. With jellyfin you can watch 4K HDR content without transcoding. To be honest, I was a bit impressed.

export it as some QuickTime/mov/whatever and recode it with handbrake.

This is all your fault, you goddamn white noise listeners!

Thanks, that sounds interesting. Unfortunately the board is not available. But I’ll keep an eye out for it. Case shouldn’t be a problem.

Thanks, I’ll study the list more closely. Budget now is in the op

Jellyfin alone needs at least 8 GB of RAM, and since I would like to have room for improvement, 16 GB is the minimum for me.I have two unused m.2ssds lying around here that I would like to install. Of course this would also be possible via a PCI board, but I would like to keep that free if possible.

Sounds nice. What kind of optiplex exactly?

Sorry, there was a typo. OMV I would also run the new server and pihole on a raspberry. OMV without the detour via proxmox

I pay around 34 €cents/kWh. That’s around €12 per month in electricity costs. Doesn’t sound like much, but if I could use less, I that would be nice

That would be conceivable, but I would like to pack my existing HDDs in a case if possible

Thanks for pointing out the ports, I’ll see which ones can be deactivated. I’ve been reading up on c states lately.I just suspect that my configuration leaves little room for maneuver.The microserver is currently running proxmox with openmediavault and a vial pihole on lxc. I would swap the vial pihole for a raspberry and only use OMV.

It was Wolfgang’s channel that gave me the idea to rethink my current server.

Everyone thinks they want to play the next new hit. We are not ready for it at all. We want consistency, something we know. We are not ready for anything new.We are too old. We as gamers should admit that to ourselves and the gaming industry should too.The next generation of gamers is in the starting blocks and is playing whatever they want. You should concentrate on those. But that’s the door for the small indie studios and not the big ones.McDonald’s recognized it decades ago: children are the customers of tomorrow.
