My users interface with my server via plex, smb and Nextcloud.

The guts are pretty complicated but from my users' point of view it's pretty simple.

You should think about what services you plan to offer and go from there.

Be aware that none of the off the shelf products have a good reputation for being secure when providing services outside your network which is when you may want stuff like Nextcloud.

Then it will be the time for the Android revolution ( life like robots, not a sweet themed OS)

The 5 wealthiest families are pulling the strings of the army.

To me that's trying to fit something that doesn't belong into a capitalist box.

It just seems unnecessary to me.

It's a place to interact with other human beings, and hopefully we can make that as positive an experience for people as possible.

I've unsubscribed from a couple of communities that did that. They were flooded with content that no one would discuss.

For wireless I used an Xbox One controller and the pc dongle with this driver: https://github.com/medusalix/xone

Don't worry it opens up pretty frequently.

My main hypervisor is proxmox which runs an unraid vm with the iGPU passed through to accelerate PLEX and disk controllers to manage the storage. I also have 2 Endeavour OS VMs, one that runs Thunderbird and Insync. Another that has a quadro p2000 passed through to tinker with. I also have a homeassistant vm and a proxmox CT running docker.

I'm working up to transitioning the dockers on unraid to a proxmox container but at the same time if it's not broke why fix it.

I also want to mess with networking by putting in OPNsense or pfsense and routing some traffic through a vps.

I'm on a dynamic ip and I've been considering doing this just to stop my remote services from being glitchy whenever the ip changes.

But I need to setup pfsense or OPNsense first so I can route everything properly.

I pick the side of the Taiwanese and what they want for themselves. Only the unethical would try to force them into something they don't want.

And yet these places succeed in creating true archives because they don't allow free loaders

People​ who think like you do so because you don't appreciate the effort that's put into creating an environment where torrents don't die.

From those top sites stuff can then be spread via people making requests at more accessible trackers.

The general pattern is that 4k will be x265 and 1080P encodes with DV / HDR10 need to be x265.

But non HDR / DV 1080P and below is x264.

That's what the encoders on the cabal trackers are doing.
