I'm pretty sure at this point most external devices have built in fans, so just monitor them under load and idle and make adjustments as necessary. I keep mine in the basement to help with heat.

Having your own server is extremely easy

1. Find a cheap low end computer with 8GB of ram at least
2. Install Ubuntu, set up SSH

3. Go to your Windows computer and install "PuTTY" (you use that to connect to the command line) then you install WinSCP (You use that to transfer files and explore filesystem comfortably), then download VSCode and connect remotely to your Ubuntu as well (Super easy too, it install automatically on your server)- Boom you already have everything set up.

4. Basically that's it, now what you want is to install every service that you want to self host (Like Plex or whatever crap) through Docker containers, use docker-compose. DO NOT INSTALL things in your server in the old way (bare metal), use containers.

4. Set up sambashare

5. Since you're connected with VSCode you can ask Copilot/Codex to set up docker and modify your docker compose every time you want to install something. If you want to go further you can install Grafana + Prometheus combo to check your computer status etc. The AI will literally set up every new shit for you.

Enjoy

Am I losing my mind, or didn't /g/ have a Home Servers General for this kind of stuff?
Went looking today and only found this thread.
>>107274080
Basically this.
I used OMV to set up an OrangePi 3B with a 1G M.2 drive slung under it. It's good for about 100MB/s which isn't fast, but it's good enough for what I need. It would have been less expensive and more flexibile to set up an ewaste-tier machine but I wanted something very small and low power.
I've been working on a separate "applications" OrangePi 3B, which serves a bunch of low-power web-based apps using Ubuntu Server. As I've been slowly adding services to it... realizing that the only difference between an NAS and a Linux Server sitting on the network is the NAS has a flash frontend and can probably set up RAID (but I'm RAID 0).

You don't even typically need to know even that much information for strongly-typed returns to work in C++, Anon.
auto func(auto arr) -> decltype(arr)
{...}
...
int main()
{
std::array<int, 3> arr{1, 2, 3};
auto foo = func(arr);
}

https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/decltype.html

Again, strong type-safety is present throughout.

Heh. It kinda took them till C++17 until you could use it this fluidly everywhere, but they did get it done in the end. Also AFAICT almost all the companies I know of are using C++17 as well now, so yeah.

Could just be autocorrect.
Also, you point out all that shit, but not the most obvious of calling it a "cellular device" instead of a cellphone, which hardly anyone does? If you're going to throw a fit over vernacular or spelling, at least do it properly.

no, no one forced anyone to display cookie warnings
they could just stop putting a million tracking cookies on your pc, then you don't have to display any cookie warnings
that's why 4chan doesn't display 4chan cookies, they only store theme setting, and an anonymized CloudFlare thing

if you see a cookie warning, it means the website is trying to fuck you

You can build a gaming PC right now with a ryzen 5500+ 9060XT for $550 with brand new parts minus ram/SSD you can easily get used off eBay.

You can build a used ryzen 5500+5700XT for $360 if you do a used build.

If the steam machine is not $550 for the 512gb or less its a flop

I used Github Copilot to modify a clock program, and it was pretty easy to do. I used it through VS 2022, and I even published a pull request. I quickly deleted it though, because fuck if anybody actually cares and I would rather just not deal with that bullshit. I reinstall W11 from Home 64 to IoT Enterprise LTSC and the program stopped working, but I stopped caring about Windows so, oh well.
Overall, a total waste of time, but it was fun while it was useful.

How much extra hardware would Anker have to add to make this capable of being a USB hub as well as a charger or would that magically turn it into a firebomb? Assume there's a 4 position slide switch to designate the master with NONE as the last choice for charge only and you have to push in the slider button to unlock its position.
If there's a less retarded option for a laptopfag you're all using instead, humiliate me by telling me what it is.
