Plus that Gavin Belson guy keeps trying to jam his horrible signature into his products.

Is it possible to do something like this with a newer router? My wireless-G router is finally dying after 20 years, and if I need to upgrade it'd be nice to wrap it all in one.

I've been curious lately if the original Ape Escape is as good as I remember. I heard the sequels weren't as good, but I have fond memories of the first game on PS1.

This is my exact setup. The upgrade from the smart TV was night and day. Apps load instantly and Jellyfin works great. Most importantly the remote is easy to use and can control the TV.

I can't speak for the desktop side, but for my server it's been running without interruption for years. About once per week I do something stupid and use all available memory, but it hasn't crashed once. It just runs a bit slow until I free up some RAM, then Docker comes back to life once I free up some disk space. I definitely recommend it for anyone who wants a server OS that just works.

"But it wouldn't hit the fan so much if we stopped using Microsoft's half-baked products!"

It always falls on deaf ears. I can't believe how many millions my employer throws at Microsoft every year just to complain about how broken it is.

I got one of these recently and it works well. Much smoother than whatever my Smart TV is natively running and it doesn't crash constantly.

If it were just me I'd have set up a small HTPC with Kodi, but my family needs something that works without ever needing my intervention, and it needs to run the 100 streaming services we hemorrhage money to. These boxes are super cheap and let me run Jellyfin too.

Are there multiple endings?

spoilerI remember expecting what you described but being surprised they were still going forward with separating.

It's entirely possible I misinterpreted, though.

That's what I'm running. I'm sure you could squeeze more performance out of a specialized OS, but headless Debian is fast and easy enough.

Is it even possible to play MGS without spoilers these days? Maybe I'm online too much, but I feel like I've seen 50% of it through memes alone.

Maybe they've never seen the original? It is a bit deep fried here, but that would still make me feel old.
