Macbro here. I'm bicurious when it comes to computers, which means I have two linux VMs installed. Arch and fedora. I try to do as much as I can from my bash terminal, but I still prefer fedora because it just looks nicer. Arch looks like it comes from a time when my dad was still sorting punch cards in grad school.

I don't really see the point of linux, though. I'm way more used to macOS, so I just know where all my shit is. The programs are a lot nicer too- iMovie and GarageBand are the shit. And linux doesn't have anything like that.

I've always gotten the feeling that linux is mostly popular with people who aren't nearly as good with computers as they think they are, and my time using linux hasn't changed that. Also, the average linux user doesn't have enough self awareness to realize how unbearably fucking cringe they are all the time.

why do preinstalled apps that come with my smartphone have ads?
why do basic functionality such as unzipping files or reading pdfs are only available on the playstore and they are extremely shitty and also full of ads too? android has 73% of the market share, how is it possible that basic functionslity doesn't work out of the box?

You normally don't have to unless you live is very dusty or dirty areas. I think it also depends on what kind of windows you have too. I had recently replaced all of my windows in my 20+ year old home to ones that are tented and block out heat. They're the ones you normally see in any government buildings or various occupations like that pic you were relying too. Basically windows where you can't see the inside much during the daytime.

They're nice but flying bugs had a habit of slamming into them all day since all this see is the reflection. I never had this problem with my old windows. It sounds like someone is constantly throwing small clumps of mud at your window. Seriously they hit my windows so hard I'm scared they're going to crack it at some point. That's why I can see why some people need to regularly clean them. Also things like smog tends to travel upward for those really tall buildings.

Is it better to output sound from my PS3/PS4 to my DAC with optical audio or to just use HDMI and the headphone jack on my monitor?

K7 outputs up to 24bit 96khz via optical so it's beyond what you're capable of hearing already. If the audio implementation on the monitor is shitty(it most certainly is not great at least) you'll be better off using optical on your DAC anyway.

It's fancy reusable adhesive so it should be negligible. I haven't had that problem with mine after 2 years. Realistically pads are wear parts and you should always count on replacing them.

READ THE (temp)WIKI! & help by contributing:
https://igwiki.lyci.de/wiki/Home_server

/hsg/ is about learning and expanding your horizons. Know all about NAS? Learn virtualization. Spun up some VMs? Learn about networking by standing up a OPNsense/PFsense box and configuring some VLANs. There's always more to learn and chances to grow. Think you’re god-tier already? Setup OpenStack and report back.

>What software should I run?
Install Gentoo. Or whatever flavor of *nix is best for the job or most comfy for you. Jellyfin/Emby/Plex to replace Netflix, Nextcloud to replace Googlel, Ampache/Navidrome to replace Spotify, the list goes on. Look at the awesome self-hosted list and ask.

>Why should I have a home server?
De-botnet your life. Learn something new. Serving applications to yourself, your family, and your frens feels good. Put your tech skills to good use for yourself and those close to you. Store their data with proper availability redundancy and backups and serve it back to them with a /comfy/ easy to use interface.

a PON fttp cable terminates wherever the engineer sees fit for it to terminate. They can run it outside, inside, upstairs, downstairs. They can run almost invisible 600 micron fibre (Invisilight) around skirting boards and doorframes if they need to.
You and I might be happy to run our own wiring and might even find it convenient to have the ONT in the basement. The vast majority of people are clueless about home networking, use only wireless connections, and would have no idea where to start troubleshooting other than calling the ISP and saying "my internet is slow".

The installer ought to have been aware that the router will need to go somewhere central and placed the ONT accordingly. A basement isn't a suitable location unless there's existing ethernet that allows the router to go elsewhere.

>a PON fttp cable terminates wherever the engineer sees fit for it to terminate.
Where I live, infrastructure cabling tends to run through the ground and thus terminates in a basement.
People don't just go about drilling holes through outside walls on a whim.

>motherboard has 1x PCI-E 4.0 x16
>motherboard has 3x PCI-E 4.0 x16 (x1 mode)
Fuck me.
I didn't notice this when I bought it, I thought at least one of the extra slots would have been an (x4) lane slot but nope they're all (x1) god dammit.

This is going to limit expansion options, isn't it?
PCI-E 3.0 cards can only operate at the card's speed, so 3.0 (x2) card in a 4.0 (x1) slot will just mean 3.0 (x1) bandwidth, right? That's kind of limiting.
Fortunately I can bifurcate the main x16 slot to 4x (x4) but that doesn't seem very convenient if I ever want to add a GPU.

Why are consumer boards so fucking cucked on PCI-E lanes?
Manufacturers always find ways to gobble them up on pointless shit like Wi-Fi and unnecessary m.2 slots (that are less versatile) will we ever get decent boards that offer multiple x8 slots again without them costing a fortune or did that die along with SLI?
