I used to have a 5700G system that I had to switch out to a 14600k system due to quciksync pass through.

I got my 14600K down to 55w from 75w with everything else being equal. Insane how efficient some setups can be.

My 16tb Pi sips at 13w max or 8w idle. But no encoding or enough storage for normal work. So it’s warm storage

We use Tailscale to share between accounts.

But for large transfers I use an encrypted HDD.

I am running Jellyfin in an Open Media Vault VM on top of Proxmox.

Jellyfin is in docker in OMV.

All disks are mounted in OMV and then mounted in Docker.

I have a 14600k that has an iGPU passthrough and it works fine. (Same generation iGPU I think)

mkdir /lib/firmware/i915/
cd /lib/firmware/i915/
wget https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/plain/i915/adls_dmc_ver2_01.bin
wget https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/plain/i915/tgl_guc_70.bin
wget https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/plain/i915/tgl_guc_70.1.1.bin
wget https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/plain/i915/tgl_huc.bin
update-initramfs -u

Then try this docker container to see if encoding works

docker run --rm ghcr.io/linuxserver/ffmpeg ffmpeg -hwaccels

Run the container

docker run --rm \
  --device /dev/dri:/dev/dri \
  --entrypoint ffmpeg \
  ghcr.io/linuxserver/ffmpeg \
  -init_hw_device qsv=hw:/dev/dri/renderD128 \
  -hwaccel qsv -hwaccel_device hw -hwaccel_output_format qsv \
  -f lavfi -i testsrc=duration=3:size=1280x720:rate=30 \
  -vf 'format=nv12,hwupload=extra_hw_frames=64' \
  -c:v h264_qsv -f null -

I’m on mobile so formatting maybe shit. But I think you can get the right idea with this.

I run it on a VPS. Works great across oceans. Biggest gripe is that it doesn’t load local content first. It checks online and then pulls from those thumbnails. So if you have a weak or slow connection, then you’ll get a spinning wheel of death or assets that don’t load properly.

I always have the irrational or maybe rational fear of glass breaking. Any furniture I buy doesn’t have any glass elements.

Anything that can run proxmox is running proxmox. Even if it’s a single OS running on it, it’s still running proxmox

I use a mixture of tailscale and zerotier. Both are pretty powerful.

People do not necessarily do reasonable things. A lot of society is built on the assumption of people doing reasonable things.

I’m confused, do you have an example of a laptop that uses numbers for their model number iteration rather than their screen size or feature set?

Yes but you can get two free instances under the same account.

Actually you can get 2 IPs for free. Then use high availability

I use ZeroTier on a MikroTik router.

Then just advertise routes on the router.

I’m a bunka kind of fella.

If you want a cheap cutting board because you can’t afford end grain, look into hinoki boards. They’re cheap and very soft wood.

As with all wooden boards, make sure you seal it first with a neutral oil such as mineral oil.

I use adguard home in conjunction with NextDNS.

I find adguard a little better in the UI department. Have it in a docker container so it’s a set and forget.

If you absolutely must use windows

Download the Pro ISO from windows.

Use MicroWin to create an iso without tpm requirements and with offline installation

Use MAS and use only the Enterprise edition. You might need to upgrade to Professional first.

Then use WindowsDebloater to tailor it to your liking.

We’re all burning just one of us is burning a little faster.

I hope that European consumer boycotts work. It won’t be easy but I hope it creates the waves needed for our corporate overlords to start paying off politicians to allow better relationships between the EU and USA. But one can only hope.

No with the latest ISO from windows 24H2 I believe

You can still skip it with MicroWin and also Rufus. I’ve tested it just recently.

Strangely enough I’ve had the opposite.

My pcie 4.0x4 drive was giving me about 200MB/s on windows and when I plugged it into a Linux machine, full drive speed.
