anything that is a “Game as a Service”

they’re dead, let them them stay dead and give the living a chance to make their mark on the world

UTC for the win

how does Jellyfin run for you on the Pi? I’m assuming you’re pretty much the only one using it? if not how many streams can you transcode at once? how is the network overhead and disk usage when accessing Gitea, Immich, NextCloud, and Jellyfin all at once?

no need to change the clocks for anything other than traveling to another time zone. it’s cool an all that you get another hour of sleep, but that’s for one day. switch the time forward of back causes more harm to people’s circadian rhythms than anything else. there’s seasons and there’s more darkness during winter. we lived without day lights before before the Great War and it was done away with after the war was over, but for some reason it stayed around after WWII. in my mind it just needlessly adds complications to the already complex way of life and we should be actively working that reduce that complexity.

The Intel compute stick seems ideal for running Batocera or Lakka

other than that I’m not really sure how you’d use it as a server other than a learning experience. what all do you use the raspberry pi 4 to host? I know you can run a bunch of stuff on a pi, but I wouldn’t think about running my docker stack one even though I know you can. the same goes for the compute stick, you’re not going to want to run something heavy. does the does compute stick even function headless? that would be the first thing I’d check if you’re want to use it as some sort of server.

this is dope man. thanks for taking the time to make this.
