IMO the trouble is that there are so many of the things now that I need a damn flowchart to understand how they work together and which ones I need.

(No, seriously: I want to set up an *arr stack but don’t understand how. Could somebody please send me a flowchart??)

Facebook marketplace

The real !mildlyinfuriating is always in the comments. I’m damn near locked out of the used market these days because I refuse to use motherfucking Facebook.

I expect less AI and more effort.

You must be an electrical engineer or something, since you’re apparently so used to thinking about flows backwards.

They should display all your accounts as a word cloud and have you draw a line (directional arrow) from the source to the destination. Yes, using your finger (on a touchscreen) or the mouse.

Been using Kubuntu for 7 years now, after having previously used Ubuntu, Debian and Gentoo.

Not sure if that means Kubuntu belongs on the “Plateau of Sustainability” or if I’m just permanently stuck at “trauma-induced return to Ubuntu,” LOL

I read OP’s question as him streaming from a Jellyfin server to this box, not using this box as a Jellyfin server itself. Could be wrong, though.

Also, it’s my understanding that transcoding is 100% about hardware support for the codecs and that integrated graphics that have it (TL;DR: 12th gen Intel) are going to perform pretty much just as well as even a high-end discrete gaming GPU for that task.

(I say “gaming” GPU because I was reading about the Arc Pro B50 the other day and it has two separate sets of transcoding hardware, so it presumably would actually perform better in terms of the number of simultaneous streams it could handle. But short of something like that, it apparently doesn’t make much difference.)

They should move the “KDE Neon” name to this new immutable version.

I got that sort of showing off out of my system two decades ago using Gentoo in college.

Hell, a top of the line graphics card alone costs as much as a decent used car!

Spoken like somebody who hasn’t shopped for a decent used car recently.

“Cash for Clunkers” really fucked us over.

I have multiple computers.

They’re running Linux, Linux, Linux, Linux, Linux and Linux.

I use KDE with pretty much default settings. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

But why? Is there really not already some other project that does that, that the dev could join instead?

I hate it when Free Software installers present the GPL as if it’s an EULA. It’s not! You don’t have to agree to it to install the software!

You only have to agree to it if you decide to do something that copyright law otherwise does not allow (e.g. redistribution of a modified version), and it is the act of doing that thing itself that signals your acceptance, no button-clicking necessary.

As far as first problems with Linux go, that one’s a classic! Congrats, LOL

They should add a per-site setting to use reading mode by default.

I’m not a Linux person.

[X] doubt

an i5-7500 should be faster

4 cores worth of Kaby Lake is faster than 32 cores worth of Interlagos?

Nothin’ I’m running, that’s for sure!

It’s not really that there are services that require that much processing power for a single request; it’s that it’s designed to handle normal requests for hundreds or thousands of users at once.

I suppose that supporting 0.5TB of RAM means it could deal with quite a big LLM, but any sort of halfway-modern GPU would absolutely run circles around it in terms of tokens per second, on any model that fit in their VRAM.

My drives are 3.5" 💀
