I can agree with that, yes, but BSD was an extension and a modification of the AT&T bell labs Unix. So essentially the same.

Yeah, that was back in the day when a computer startup took minutes. It now takes seconds. Also, that was good for colleges so students can start working right away.

My PC idle sips around 130 - 160 watts according to my UPS. That’s a lot of damn money for literally doing nothing. Now imagine MS using my GPU at full speed 24/7. I have a 9070xt in it that pulls around 350 watts at full load and an Intel core 7 Ultra that pulls around 280 watts at full load. Imagine that monthly bill. How much would MS pay people? It’d better be 10x the money I spend on power.

Has anyone used a *BSD lately? Genuine question. I have tried one of them in the past and it wasn’t really something that you can use as a daily driver. Have they improved? If so, I wouldn’t mind taking another dive.

The whole BSD family are THE unix.

I came running with my axe at first. Thanks for making this comment. lol

Damn, dude. You had me first.

Fucking thank you. I thought it was insane. This is next level carelessness to me.

Not power off, but suspend it every single time I’m not using it. It is never on when I’m not using it. I have never done that. Why waste power and the life of the parts? Seems very unnecessary to me.

Who the fuck leaves their pc “idle”? What is MS sniffing?

This makes my blood boil.

Next floppy disks, please.

I just want some HDDs for my server, that’s all. Is that too much to ask? They’re fire now. $300 for a 4tb HDD? That’s a crime.

Steve from Gamers Nexus has been screaming from the roof tops for a couple of years now, but all the “mainstream news outlets” that are supposed to be for the people, ignored him and kept praising goldfish-face Jensen and made him look like a god with his ugly-ass leather jacket.

We all saw it from the very beginning. It’s all about the short term gains and to make those graphs point upwards. It doesn’t matter the means and the consequences of that, just make sure they go up. That’s it. Fuck you and me average fucks who just want to buy 2TB of storage for their pc or a fucking 32GB of RAM. Y’all in the West seriously need to bring back guillotines and public execution.

I have a dell optiplex micro that has been running pretty much everything in my home lab. They sell for $100ish on Amazon and eBay.

Thanks, but I already have a Samsung fridge.

Thank you. I realized that after reading the comment a couple of times. Yeah, they can screw off. If they stop me, I’ll just move my stuff somewhere else.

Against whose TOS? Jellyfin’s? I’ve never heard of that. Do explain why please.

Edit: I re-read your comment a couple of times (English is my second language), then searched some stuff. I didn’t even know cloudflare did that. I’ve been using them for over 2 years with no issues. I guess I don’t stress their servers enough? lol. If they stop me, I’ll just move to another company. I won’t even bother asking them or anything.

Just completed my set of needed services by adding nextcloud to the list. Now life is good. Jellyfin: check. Navidrome: check. Pihole: check. Invidious: check. Nextcloud: check. What else? lol

Hey, I did the same. It’s not as bad as it seems. Get yourself a domain name from cloudflare and use it. I got mine for $10 a year. Then just installed cloudflare on my Debian server and all that (I’m sure you know the rest) then made users on my admin jellyfin dashboard and started sending people their usernames and passwords. The only difference for them is now they would need to enter the server URL on the first page of whatever they use then username and password. Good thing these jellyfin clients have the page of entering the server URL in your face with their “connect to server” button. Let me know if you have any questions.

Can this be installed on an android box?
