Oh definitely.

I still hate my old phone for locking ADB behind a Mi account registration and when I wanted to go into the theme settings some stupid marketplace app opened from which I could quit by hitting the back button to het to the actual android theme settings

My proxmox server is named Atlas. It hosts a Truenas VM called truenas, a ubuntu server lts vm called Poseidon for docker container hosting a homeassistant VM called homeassistant and a second VM for docker containers called Neptune where I want to gradually move and reorganize my services as required.

I also have a raspberry pi as a general testserver called eileithya and a Synology Nas named Hestia

Honestly, I wouldn't try to develop this for network sharing. That would make it encroach a lot on the territory of dedicated server software like jellyfin which most likely has a lot more development power behind it.

Probably better to focus on your niche

Which ones do you have? I have a seagate ironwolf 4TiB which is literally silent. I had it running 24/7 next to my bess headrest without issues.

Then I bought 2 Toshiba MG series 16TiB drives and I can hear those with my door closed while they are 2 rooms away whenever there are write operations

Wow. Thanks for sharing this site. This is awesome

Wasn't there some way to fingerprint typewriters as well based on yhe exact shape of the letter stencils? I vaguely remember something like that being an actual thing for solving crimes

Whenever I eat at burger king or McDonald's (which is almost never) I have to download their stupid apps for the coupons because without a 2 for 1 coupon the prices are just ridiculous for what you get. Actually, nevermind. The prices are still ridiculous even with the coupon

There's qobuz but they don't have everything

Just to be sure there isn't a misunderstanding. With 7th gen I mean any intel iX-7xxx processor or higher.

The first (or first 2) numbers of the second part of the processor name determine the generation of the processor. The number immediately following the i just denotes the performance tier within the processors own generation

I run a couple of containers on my lenovo mini pc. I have proxmox installed on bare metal and then one VM for truenas, one for docker containers and one for home assistant OS.

For me the limiting factor is definitely RAM. I have 20GB (because the machine came with a 2x4GB configuration and I bought a single 16GB upgrade stick) and am constantly at ~98% utilization.

To be fair, about half of that is eaten up by TrueNAS alone due to ZFS.

The point I'm trying to make is basically make sure you can put enough RAM into your machine. Some NAS have soldered memory you won't be able to upgrade. The CPU performance you need highly depends on what you want to do.

In my case the only CPU intensive task I have is media transcoding which can often be offloaded to dedicated bardware like intel quicksync. The only annoying exception is hardware transcoding of x265 media which is apparently only supported from intel 7th gen and upwards processors and I have a 6th gen i5... Or maybe I configured something wrong. No clue

Edit: I wrote that after reading the first half of your comment. Regarding connecting a screen, I think I had one connected once to set up proxmox. Afterwards I just log into the proxmox web interface. If required I can use that to get a GUI session of each VM as well.

Works great on my linux laptop. It's also available for windows but lacks some sruff there unfortunately. For example you can only send one file at a time and many media players in windows are not recognized and yherefore cannot be controlled from the phone.

I know this is the linux community. Just wanted to mention these things for people like me who also have a windows machine for gaming
