I mean you can exchange the network card with at least 2.5Gbps of your Intel computer, install Linux and create a share and use the Ryzen mini PC for managing and transcoding media files, but it will complicate your setup and won’t be very energy efficient.

No, by CPU is an odd choice, I meant for the i7-6700K. The Ryzen CPU is quite recent and very powerful, and energy efficient. Again, for a multimedia system you need a big case like the Define one and lots of SATA ports and bays. The Intel one checks the boxes, but you need a better processor or alternatively an external GPU, like the Intel Battlemage to have hardware encoding acceleration.

The mini PC is nice but not suitable for multimedia machine, as it lacks the SATA ports and bays. You can use it as a router, like OPNSense.

Why are you buying a rack when neither of your machines are rack mountable?

What is your use case, what are you using the big PC and the small one? Why Unraid and not TrueNAS Scale for example.

If you are planning on using the big machine for multimedia, be aware that the i7-6700K doesn’t support hardware encoding/decoding of HEVC and the CPU is not powerful enough for live 4K software transcoding.

This CPU is quite an odd choice though, it is 10 years old and in my opinion extremely outdated. Get at least 8-9 gen, that at least have this running.

Let the witch hunt begin.

Don’t forget also the app support, a lot more apps support x86, than ARM.

Yes, it is a cool little game, definitely worth the consideration for experienced and beginner programmers.

I tried the universal firewall rules and apart from block port 80, I didn’t manage to configure it in a way to not lose connectivity. I also use Adguard DNS, which I set manually on my phone, so the DNS only mode isn’t very beneficial for me either.

I bought two games:

• The farmer was replaced - a simple Idle game, where you need to use a Python like code to automate a farming drone with farming hat that is doing the farming for you and the complexity of the tasks is increasing progressively. This game is in early access and has no discount but the price is 7€, so hardly breaking the bank.
• European Truck Simulator 2 - because it was just 2€ and it looks chill, even though I am not much into car racing games.

How did you configure the RethinkDNS. I tried it but I don’t know how to configure the DNS not to block all my internet traffic.

Yes, I was thinking in the same direction but for me it is important for my banking app to work and don’t want to do some hacky way to trick it.

Yes, the provider is having very good coverage. Is it possible that the SIM card reader has bad contact with the SIM card and because of that to have issues with the coverage?

Actually France is doing pretty well IT-wise, but the majority of the countries in Europe are greatly lagging in IT development and digitalization.

This looks like a pretty fun game to play. I will give it a try.

Just changing the SSH port to non standard port would greatly reduce that risk. Disable root login and password login, use VLANs and containers whenever possible, update your services regularly and you will be mostly fine

If you are behind CGNAT and use some tunnel (Wireguard, Tailscale, etc.) to access your services which are running on Docker containers, the attack vector is almost not existing.

Do you think synagogues are paying any taxes? Because if they force churches to pay the taxes, they should apply the same scrutiny to synagogues but I am sure they don’t. So I dare you to prove me wrong.

Yes, sorry, typo

Not if they crash into stationary objects like rocks, etc. In that case the amount of force the driver will experience will be 2-3 times higher compared to the amount of force a driver of a normal sedan will experience if he had the same accident.

But yeah, those trucks are getting ridiculously big and heavy. They are not only bad for the environment, they are bad for the roads and other drivers and pedestrians. I am living in Europe and it is really infuriating that those cars are like 1.5 times a normal car and then you can’t even find a parking spot.

After he spent how many years in this embassy almost as a hostage and a prisoner with deteriorating physical and mental health. I can’t even imagine what it was even like.

If you know what RAM is, and you bought an 8GB Mac in the last 10-years, then you are likely self-aware of your limited demands and/or made an informed compromise.

Or you simply refuse to pay $200+ to get a proper machine. Like seriously, 8GB Mac’s should have disappeared long ago, but nope, Apple stick to them with their planned obsolescence tactics on their hardware, and stubbornly refusing to admit that in 2023 releasing a MacBook with soldered 8Gb of RAM is wholy inadequate.
