Live service and single player is not incompatible... Unfortunately...
Look at Hitman (2016 and forward), all require an online connection to play, and release new stuff monthly.
Many of Ubisofts games also require an online connection despite being fully single player, and you can even buy currency for the in-game single player shop with real money... What used to be a cheat code is now a microtransaction.
Agreed, and this is what I have set up for mine... But this is also technologically so far out of reach for >95% of people...
Ghost in the Shell is rapidly becoming a documentary.
My home-assistant installation alone is too much for my Raspberry Pi 3. It depends entirely on how much data it's processing and needing to keep in memory.
Octoprint needs to respond in a timely manner, so you will want to have the system mostly idle (at least below 60 percent CPU at all times), preferably octoprint should be the only thing running on the system unless it's rather powerful.
If I were you, I would install octoprint exclusively on your Raspberry Pi 3, and then buy a Raspberry Pi 4 for the other services.
I'm running Pi-hole and a wireguard VPN on an old Raspberry Pi 2, which is perfectly fine if you are not expecting gigabit speeds on the VPN.
Yeah, there's tonnes of good content on there, but as you allude to, there's even more shitty or zero effort content... And the algorithm has a way of serving up absolute trash. And the parental controls are pretty much non existent...
Youtube happily serves up videos to an 8 year old (on a supervised children's account) that contain topics like abuse, sex, racism, horror, radical religious indoctrination, Chinese propaganda, and human centipede... This isn't as rampant in the YouTube Kids app... But at least half the stuff on YouTube Kids is ASMR content or unboxing "surprise" toys...
YouTube allows you to block channels, but will happily continue serving the 9000 other accounts that simply reupload the same exact videos.
Oh, I misremembered... It's only 7 disks in BTRFS RAID1.
I have:
For a combined total of 40 TB raw storage, which in RAID1 turns into 20 TB usable.
I never said anything about RAID5. I'm running RAID1.
BTRFS is running just fine for my 8 disk home server.
Open-source EVs are a bit like Gentoo, you have to build it yourself.
Awesome to hear, and good luck with it!
I just want to mention that there is a lot of configuration options in Tree Style Tab, so if it doesn't behave exactly how you want it to, there's a high likelihood that you just need to tweak the settings a bit.
But the author is actually using less data than expected, because he's paying for 4K, but only able to watch up to 1080p
