Just wanted to drop an amazing work compliment!

Gohddzsx?

if you buy two identical drives (at the same time), the likelyhood of both drives failing around the same time is severely higher.

I need sources, this sounds extremely unlikely. That’s basically 2 "independent” probabilities.

I second Dungeon Crawler Carl. Have fun with!

What’s the usecase? I fount tortoise-tts very niche tbh

Thanks for sharing!

I’m half retarded, any videos explaining the structure of Lemmy? No idea the difference between .ml and .cafe, is it supposed to be different subreddits? Or different websites?

because I have to create an account to use Android…

You don’t. Look into degoogled ROMs, MicroG, Aurora store, and f-droid.

Look into OpenWRT supported devices with mesh network. For example, get a couple of used Netgear R7800 for example, and you got yourself a neat setup. This guy has step by step tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t4A0kfg2olo

I think the main culprit is CPU/MB, so that’s the only thing needed a replacement. Many cheap alternatives (less than 200$) that can half the consumption and would pay itself in a year of usage easily. There is a Google doc floating around listing all the efficient CPUs and their TDPs. Just a suggestion, I’m pretty sure after a year it would payoff its price, there is absolutely no need for a 110w/h unless you’re running LLMs on that and even then it shouldn’t be that high.

This sounds excessive, that’s almost 1.1$/day, amounting to more than 2kWh/24hrs, ie ~80W/hr? You will need to invest in a TDP friendly build. I’m running a AMD APU (known for shitty idle consumption) with Raid 5 and still hover less than 40W/h.

Noob question, how’s the lag? Playing games like Sekiro for example locally on my desktop, I can’t even use a shitty controller as it comes with high latency. I imagine a solution with a game hosted in a remote server would even suffer more than just a laggy controller.
