I use it for Plex/Jellyfin, it’s the cheapest NVIDIA GPU that supports both AV1 encoding and decoding, even though Plex doesn’t support AV1 yet IIRC it’s still more futureproof that way. I picked it up for like around $200 on a sale, it was well worth it IMO.

64GB would be a nice amount of memory to have. I’ve been okay with 32GB so far thankfully.

Not anymore. My main self-hosting server is an i7 5960x with 32GB of ECC RAM, RTX 4060, 1TB SATA SSD, and 6x6TB 7200RPM drives.

I did used to host some services on like a $5 or $10 a month VPS, and then eventually a $40 a month dedi, though.

He is obviously way too highly paid by an insane amount, but where are these people going? There’s no way they’re all going to Chrome, right?

Self-hosting is definitely a ton of fun. I love being able to host my own services, whether it’s using like a server in the cloud or my own hardware.

No. He did a heroic act and should not be punished.

Because the rich pretend like it’s in peoples interest, people believe them because oh they are rich they must know what they are talking about, and because people are stupid.

Technically yes, you’d have to find an exploit for your TV that allows for installing your own OS.

It’s not super feasible but it’s technically possible.

It’s always good to be valued, congrats!

Yes, something like that would work. The stock OS would still be on the TV but as long as you don’t connect the TV to WiFi it should be fine.

Congrats! That sounds like actually meaningful work.

That’s awesome news, congrats!

Wow, 2 interviews in 11 months is rough. Last year it took me 5 months, I’d say around 20-30 interviews, and 6 years of experience as a dev. Congrats on the job!

Wow, you don’t have a single person agreeing with you, that’s really impressive.

Honestly, everything. Any TV show, movie, documentary, book, or hell even porn that could be deemed as valuable or important in any way as I could see any one of these things becoming outlawed with such a regime. Hell, Canada’s new prime minister (99% chance to win in the next election apparently) is going to try for putting porn behind digital IDs (despite claiming to be against digital IDs before if I remember correctly) which is just going to be a privacy nightmare unfortunately, I’m already having to stockpile porn because of this ridiculous bullshit. We are truly in a doomed timeline.

Canada will do the same once Pierre takes over. I’m already having to stockpile porn because of the fact he has a 99% chance to win and he’s going to implement digital ID bullshit (even though Pierre claimed to be against digital IDs before If I remember correctly) which will end up being a privacy nightmare. I hope to fuck it’s not going to be linked to social insurance numbers because the only way to get a new social insurance number is if there is actively fraud happening with your social insurance number, and then you have to fight to prove that you’re you. We are so fucked.

I mean there’s a 99% chance Pierre wins.

I’m already stockpiling my porn so he can’t take it away from me. Will be horrifying to see whatever digital ID spying system he comes up with. So much for being anti-overreach and pro-freedom.

Also, there were plenty of people who were never going to vote for a woman, no matter what.

Well yeah, that’s why some people stay in toxic jobs unfortunately.

$100 LOL
