Appoxo

Entirely for home use and entertainment but also a bit of learning.
I try to be best practice from the get-go even if it's a bit steep to start like this. I believe that doesnt even get me close to scenario of "give everyone every permission recursively".
But I will expose it via a reverse proxy.
Right now I am experimenting with my VM on doing the All-in-one VM doing NFS shares from my other 2 linux devices. And that was successful besides the issue of now having system1 think 100 = user "pi" and system2 100 = user "appoxo"

But yes. If you actually know what your goal/achievement is (e.g. reach a 0-trust permission state for the folder-tree of department Y) then it's easier to research what you need to achieve it.
And that's where I am already stuck. What do I want to do and how do I achieve that with the limited time, motivation and resources I have.

I believe my current wish is:

• Have a VM -> Reason: Able to snapshot and being able to easily go back if needed
• Jellyfin and the *arr stack should be able to access and modify the files. Jellyfin via docker+NFS, *arr stack via mount-points from the same host
• The permissions shouldnt be overly complicated and not consist of juggling a hundred users -> Maybe groups?
• Beginner friendly to use and administrate.

All in all I think I will proceed with doing the all-in-one storage and compute VM and let jellyfin access it via a docker-compose mounted NFS mountpoint.
Why: I believe it's easier to use as the bloody beginner I am ;)
BUT if you have a better idea or think I should do it a different way, I want to be open to feedback and advice

Sorry, meant Windows Live Games

Remember Windows Live Games? Ah yes. Good ol' GTA4 on PC.

Yesnt. I certainly played games on school pcs (Like HL2, Hotline Miami 2. Other students played Binding of Isaac and other smaller or rogue-like) and only with executables I got from Steam.

I love that you can even edit the boot logos. Always a treat to see another one every time.

I filled the form approximately 5 or 6 times out before I was finally done....

Asphyxiation is never not successful.
Let it run for an 8h and if the oxygen sensor doesnt report any leak than I'd say "He's dead jim".

At this point it's easier to get one of those 50" gaming monitors and put an htpc near it or just something like a chromecast

This is enough to warrant scepticism for me: https://lemmy.ml/post/20683744

But I don't believe at the scale of thousands of players for >1 year.
Remember, they are (supposedly) offering it even if you played a 100 hundred hours. I don't think that comes only from Valve. They'd burn bridges with publishers should they deduct it from their pay as a "You rugpulled our user base. We are now offering refunds if requested and will take it from your cut as compensation".

Valve is going beyond any point in comparison to any other software company I know.

You can request a refund. An earlier post last week said they are offering refunds for rug-pulled players.
