Chrome Remote Desktop works well and doesn’t require a monitor (at least not one that’s turned on).

Maybe when IPv6 is widely available, we’ll stop seeing this… For now, it sucks, but IPv4 blocks are expensive. Price or external IPv4, something’s gotta give.

Quite a few unexpected results here…

1. I’m surprised the C binary is not the smallest, and it’s outdone by Pascal, of all languages.
2. The speed/energy difference between Java and C# (almost a factor of 2 in favor of Java).
3. The relatively good performance of JavaScript compared to other loosely typed multi-paradigm scripting languages.
4. The difference between C# and F#. That’s actually a good reason to question the accuracy of these tests and results.

I upgrade as soon as new versions come out, I like living on the edge :) if something goes wrong, there are backups.

As for musl, I haven’t mentioned it since OP wants to run containers - and in that case, musl doesn’t matter. And for running programs natively, many are available as packages (with any musl incompatibilities already resolved). But yeah, if you venture outside these limits, you can definitely run into issues with musl.

Everybody is so quick to suggest Debian (and it’s a fine choice), but Alpine is great for such things, as well. It’s blazing fast, frequently updated, has most packages you could ever want in a server environment (not that it matters if you’re planning on using containers). I’ve been using Alpine for years as my docker host, and not once have I thought “man, I wish it was debian instead”.

I have a Weber grill. It’s about 8 years old. I realized there are some issues with the model (it’s a Q) shortly after buying it - mainly, the heat is not consistent all around, so you have to know where to put each piece of meat. And the heat output overall is lower than I would like. But it just won’t die. It just works, and works, and works, without any issues whatsoever. I don’t bother covering it up in the winter, and it doesn’t rust. I’m stuck with it’s downsides forever.

Ironically, all the variations you mentioned do not have the gift part, except for the letter ‘n’ :)

They all originate from Johnathan, which in Hebrew means, literally “God gave”, the “Joh” part meaning “God”, and “Nathan” meaning “gave”.

Chrono Trigger.

And the oceans are too cold for them, so they are pushing us towards global warming, right?

A custom made Google Sheet to track everything - maintenance, repairs, insurance, and fuel ups. I’d like to move to an app that supports all of the above, but getting everything into an importable format was messy (tried it with Fuelio), and I gave up after a while. The fact that I’m also writing down parts purchased prior to installation does not make this easier.

My plan is to try and convert it all into plaintext accounting format (probably Beancont with a tailor-made plugin), but so far I’ve been mostly kicking that ball down the street.

No, it absolutely uses a Linux kernel.

Ah. Sarcasm is difficult to see in text based communication.

Not sure what Linux ISOs are, but it’s pretty rare that something is only available with Dolby Vision and not HDR10. Have you verified that HDR10 gives you trouble? 4K HDR is also usually HDR10, unless specifically marked as DV, in my experience.

Anyway, another option, if you don’t care for HDR, is to transcode/tonemap everything in the background. This way, you don’t have to worry about performance during playback.

Exactly. The issue is with the source of electricity, not with the AC itself. Not to mention that leading by example is nice, but it’s not always the best course of action. An individual avoiding AC is a drop in the water, and not going to save the planet, while suffering immensely. Hell, even if every single individual stopped using AC at home (which isn’t even close to reality), that wouldn’t have a significant effect, compared to what corporations, factories, etc. are doing.

Android TV should handle HDR automatically (and tonemap it if needed).

Green and pink tint sounds like the source is Dolby Vision, not HDR10. So, 2 questions:

1. Why do you need HDR sources if your displays don’t support HDR?
2. Assuming the answer to (1) is that you’re future-proofing, why not just get HDR10 files instead of Dolby Vision?

That’s a really nice setup! I run most of my things on a docker swarm (the docker hosts are VMs running on Proxmox hosts), though that was an overkill in retrospect, and causes more problems with no practical advantages.

The range of services I run is similar to yours, but I also have a bunch of services for personal finance (beancont/fava, as well as automatic importers and such), a more extensive media setup (with qBitTorrent and *arr apps), a gitea server, and a vaultwarden instance.

That awesomebudget looks nice! I’m more of a beancont/fava guy, and too invested in my setup to try something vastly different - but it sure looks like a cool option for people starting out.
