I used to have the same confusion. Now i self host cctv, home automation, automated torrenting, and a network share. If i spent enough time traveling, I would probably also self host something analogous to Netflix and Spotify. I could also self host a password manager and have my phone back up my photo library to a photo manager.

>psuedo seedbox
server is set to automatically reboot if it loses power and i have a VM configured to only connect to the internet through a VPN & it auto starts the torrent client & VPN upon boot, makes it so i dont have to manage my torrents on a computer that actually use and have to worry about network issues from the VPN or keeping it turned on so it seeds or finishes a download
also pretty much a requirement for private trackers for seeding requirements
i can manage the torrent client via a web browser as well on my network so i can manage it from my daily driver devices(laptop & phone)

>data hoarding
mainly for movies, tv shows, anime, etc. but if theres something i like, i try to download it so i will always have it
i also back up older games so i just have it, i dont trust it will always be available
i also digitize documents & put copies of digital things i get on there along with also just backing up photos and whatnot, lets me just stuff the documents into a safe and if i need to view it, i just check the server

>plex/jellyfin
just lets me stream all the movies and whatnot, i can also share access with family when they want to watch a particular movie or TV show

It is, I have a setup like this at home, thin clients connecting to VMs running on a Proxmox server. I use Parsec for the streaming, it's designed for gaming so it's fast and the video quality is great as well, but it costs a lot if you want multi-monitor connections and you need an account :/. Internet works, it needs to be fast on both ends, but it works well enough for non-action games or work.
>>107621606
You can buy ram and storage in bulk, get 1 CPU with lots of cores and 1 fast GPU and then split it across multiple VMs. If you have multiple clients you can save on cost that way. I initially set it up like this since I wanted a separate personal and work pc, but now I also have my kids' PCs running on the same network. You also get the advantage of being able to manage everything in one place, full backups and health stuff is easy since you can use the same infrastructure as your services, and instead of having a large, loud computer case take up space and make noise in every room, you just have a rack in a closet somewhere.

>You can buy ram and storage in bulk
>save on cost
have you seem memory prices? from rust drives to RAM, its all fucked
just from storage & RAM on my gaming computer and server, it would have cost me an extra $1,200 if i built it now, presuming i could even find it in stock
you also get a fairly massive performance hit when running games in a VM & theres the issue that modern games are all unoptimized and bank on DLSS to get a decent FPS, which you cant do in a VM, gotta run that bare metal to use DLSS
if its all old games, sure it makes sense

>>107620738
Yes for modern standards that's a small phone

>>107620866
modern standards can fuck right off then

an iphone 8 plus (guess what the plus stood for) had a 5.5" screen

>>107620438
I am done spending hundreds on expensive smartphones, I am going to buy a cyberdeck or handheld Linux computer because phones don't have the screen size I want but laptops are too big for my needs and tablets are just as restrictive as phones, and I don't want Apple or Google having admin/root control over my device

So the uConsole or the Mecha Comet would work nicely with an arm Linux distro

This feels like windows to me now. Want to update all my software? I have to go through a dozen websites, download their shitty installers and click through all of them. Want to stop "antimalware service executable" from taking up 30% of my CPU? I have to edit the registry, group policy editor, make a deal with satan and it still does not die

i imagine there is some targeted advertisement that works, because its what you actually want to see so you may not notice it. for example i think amazon does a pretty good job because while i don't use it very often, it generally suggests things i look at and think about buying (but don't). so at least it makes sense on a website where i am currently shopping.
i asked my coworkers if youtube ads worked for them, and multiple people have said it reminded them to buy, and it seems to be the brand they prefer

I bought years ago a Ducky One keyboard, cherry MX brown, I have noticed that the keycaps are quite fragile, is that a normal thing? Many of them break rather easily, I'm quite annoyed and surprised at the fragility of what I thought was a premium keyboard option.I try to put some tape to fix stuff, is this a normal thing for mechanical keyboards in general? Pictured is the H key as well that cracked like many others

Legit wonder why they even bother? They could just use ARM or RISCV or whatever.

People will tell you it's about control but they can do whatever they want with existing architectures. Maybe they just don't want to join annoying committee meetings.

What is a very simple Lisp, is there a cool site with a few 3,4,5,6 primitive Lisps? Or Lisps that use a lot more primitives (like 15, 30?) to reach Turing completeness?

All it's going to take to unravel a lot of this is one industry lawsuit around AI. Insurance claim denials I think will be one of the first. They are already using it as a data aggregator for weather events at insured addresses. I can tell you it's never correct, but that won't stop your insurer from attempting to fuck you over with it.
