Local media streaming Is the appeal?

Now if you’re asking why use Plex vs Jellyfin, for me jellyfin has more issues with high bitrate 4K HDR content and subtitles for my situation.

Just open the main settings and there’s a category called personal dictionary.

FUTO keyboard, Seriously, it’s way better than every other option I’ve looked into. Has material you design support.

Also a lot of cool in development features like on-device text correction and speech to text with local LLM processing.

I gotcha, thanks for sharing. It’s cool hearing from people who are so far away!

I wanted to go with a pi for my HTPC but I have a Plex server and all my movies are full bitrate 4k files straight from the UHD blurays and the pi couldn’t handle that bitrate. Ended up building a small ITX PC with my old PC hardware and a new Intel A380 gpu.

I’m so thankful intel is doing their best to enter the discreet GPU market. Such banger cards for so little.

That’s crazy! If you don’t mind me asking what do you typically do on your machine and how much time do you spend on it?

I’m just curious because I spend a lot of time on my PC and can only imagine how horrible all the stuff I do would be on that hardware lol

“AI heavily increased GPU prices” Nvidia one of the greediest companys around increased the prices of GPUs, not necessarily AIs fault because nvidia is in direct control of their card prices.

Take a look at Intel’s new GPUs, they are actually priced in a way that isn’t fist fucking the consumer.

I still order from them although it’s definitely gotten worse and the website feels like It was designed exclusively by the marketing team and high-up executives instead of web engineers.

Honestly, I typically gravitate towards Amazon over Newegg these days, but Newegg does have a lot more options for computer hardware, so I still order from them. I just ordered an ITX motherboard and SFX power supply from newegg yesterday actually because amazom didn’t have the products I wanted.

Home assistant isn’t only for automations! I just use it as the smart hub for my house in general. I control all my lights and other smart home devices through the home assistant dashboard, it’s just like having one centralized app instead of many individual apps for every smart home device.

I use the esphome intergration to make my own diy smart home devices, and so much more.

Really if you have any interest in a “smart home” or using any smart home products on a reoccurring bases I’d say home assistant is worth getting into.
