Mythtv is awesome if you want to watch live TV, DVR the live TV or watch media. I’ve never been able to get it to work easily with streamed content. However you can just download the content you want and watch it as media. Best part is you can split the backend (disks, TV tuners etc) front the frontend (playback) and have a tiny box sat next to your tv

In the UK it would cost about the same, but that would be because he went by car and needed to pay for parking, parking charges at hospitals are getting ridiculous

Are you on carrier grade NAT (CGNAT) WAN ip in the address space 100.64.0.0 to 100.127.255.255?

Yeah assuming young means below 16, you can’t expect babies to know how to do online piracy, give them until they at least 10 or so

Edit it’s 30 but my point still stands

I feel like hardware raid is relic from the pre multi core CPU days, given that was less than 20 years ago it makes me feel old

Can confirm that moving a zfs array to a new system after a failure is simply connect the disks and zpool import -f <pool_name>

Every raid card I use now is put in hba mode it’s just simpler to deal with

I can recommend the nanopi r4s, supported by openwrt, ipfire and I think opnsense. Ive been using it as my main router for almost a year now on a symmetric 1Gb connection. Best part is it’s super cheap and tiny

It’s literally following the usb-pd spec for any type of usb type c cable. Then getting a charger that supports 20v on PPS.

This 30w Google charger I’m looking at now does 20v usb-pd but only 11v@3A on PPS. It’s built to a budget.

What you just described is called cooking.

The r4s doesn’t have eMMC where as the r6s does. I just left the SD card as rw, I’m not too concerned about failure, I’m hoping for some wear leveling built in, if not SD cards are cheap. I should probably clone the disk and have a cold spare SD card.

Storage wise I’m using 17. 63MiB of 29.38GiB, I think I may have bought a too big SD card Ram usage is around 88MiB of 3.87GiB I have got a couple of more things to set up like wireguard but as it stands I’m glad I went the openwrt route over a full server install

I looked at the nanopi r4s and the r6s when I replaced my router. I did consider doing it all myself but in the end settled on the r4s running opwenwrt, I think it took all of 5mins from download to working system. The benefit been the openwrt image has uboot included so only one image need writing, also web interface out of the box

Don’t think of it as an installation, it’s writing image files to disk. I prefer using gparted or disks when working with partitions. Then use dd for the actual writing as I can quite easily see I’ve got the right partition from gparted/disks. Got that wrong a couple of times 😅

Great now I need my tinfoil hat

Rothschilds are diamonds and other crap,

It’s the Australian Rupert Murdoch

Although him and a Lord Rothschild have been involved in some fuckery with oil in Israel

I think the correct answer is some billionaire

Consider this; you were taught Microsoft <product> in school as it’s used in work environments, Microsoft <product> is used in work environments as it’s taught in schools or the person making the decision was only taught one product.

Why do you think Microsoft is giving free upgrades from windows 10 to 11, same thing from XP upwards. It’s vendor lock in, and that’s bad for many reasons

No offence, but have you been living under a Microsoft shaped rock for the past 30 years?

At the rate the UK is going it won’t be long before there is no northern Ireland, and just Ireland

The United kingdom of great Britain and ireland, there are always exceptions

I’ve been down this road, java Minecraft is fine, bedrock Minecraft is not. Most people and cross platform play Minecraft use the bedrock version. It’s literally Microsoft saying FU linux

I think it’s more if you want to replace one you have to replace both, and if you don’t glue the battery to the screen the phone will fall apart, that’s what I’d do if I was an evil corporation and wanted customers to buy a new phone instead of repairing

I did see a m.2 based expansion card based on ASM1166 chipset, or failing that a sata port multiplier, but those depend on the data port supporting it
