Doctor, when I do this it hurts…
Also, you’re creating a disk image…

Thanks for that, worth knowing.
True, but OP refers to ‘some cherished items’
I assumed the context here was torrenting rather than streaming, download blu-ray remuxes and encode to your liking.
A 16Tb manufacturer recertified drive is USD160 which should sort storage (and later get a second for offline backup). I’m actually holding out until I get GPU encode (apparently CPU is somewhat better, but power considerations, maybe next gen). Do wish the scene would get on with switching, though, are we dinosaurs?
RetroArch doesn’t have Xbox/PS2/switch
No, but EmuDeck does, along with RetroArch… Best have a look before starting.
More power to you if you want to strike out on your own, but you may find it quicker going to join a larger project at this stage, you’ll have people to ask questions to, if you choose well you’ll learn best (or good) practices, etc. Maybe EmuDeck itself? In the end the language doesn’t matter much (maybe avoid Perl, PHP and JavaScript at the start), once you get the concepts down it’s easy to switch to another. You’ve got time, take some to skill up.
For a media server speed matters little (5400rpm is plenty), if you’ve only got one drive, warranty is king. Thing is you shouldn’t only have one drive, drives will fail, and warranty doesn’t get your data back, so you plan for it. At the very least, you should look at getting an offline backup as soon as possible, now you don’t care if your drive fails and can get the cheapest ones. Ideally, you also set up a RAID5 (or Unraid, or mergerfs+SnapRAID) on your server, now you just get a replacement drive and rebuild. Remember RAID is not a backup, it doesn’t protect against accidental deletions for example, so you still want the offline backup.
Also, don’t sleep on manufacturer recertified drives, as long as you have a backup they’re significantly more cost-effective.
TLDR: set yourself up so that a drive failing is not a problem.
Been around since at least early Final Fantasy / Chrono Trigger SNES era (for some values of action). Maybe Atari ‘Adventure’.
Or… install bazzite on one or both… and use an Arch distrobox to get all the Arch/AUR goodness with none of the system breaking risks. I was on Arch for a few years, learned a lot, but as a first distro ? Your funeral…
So, by way of answering my own question, I found this map, which lets you work it out for yourself. Interesting stuff.
Which brings me to the question of how to benchmark now that I can make good guesses. Speedtest to US and Europe?
I’d be going through Singapore to get to Japan, so I doubt that’d be better… Hmm maybe, after looking at the map, it might actually work out better, depends on how saturated the direct cable is I guess.
Agreed, if the bandwidth is better than bad it’s way better, also, Wayland support.
They’re talking about a Trackball mouse e.g., not the pre laser mice (or they’re nuts). Good ergonomics, useful for carpal tunnel etc.
FWIW I’ve found their high-end mice pretty robust, my MX Master 2 is still going strong 5+ years in, if cosmetically challenged. Amortised over time, the price is not so bad.
Please let local, open equivalents be available (see LocalAI for an example of not being far off) before this. The sheer scale of data harvesting this will enable boggles the mind.
Or violence, which is justified self-defense when tyrants are trying to destroy everyone’s property rights.
Valid option. Burn it all down and start again is always possible, and probably more efficient than fixing things at this point.
I’m not American either, but law precedents are contagious, once enough judges think it’s reasonable, others start to as well, even across borders. A lot of the world runs on Scottish common law at base. If you really want to get to root causes, I’d go with greed, the tendency of the rich to seek rent, and Late Stage Capitalism.
The original idiocy here is the DMCA, this and the other idiocies practised in its name are consequences. Over time the idiocies build up as case law precedents until new and ever more egregious cases are made, some of which stick (as in throw shit at the wall and see what sticks) and the cycle continues. Eventually the only way to root it out becomes new legislation.
does rclone not work?
Hmm, Church and State… I much prefer having a separate RSS reader (FreshRSS in my case) for news, as I see it, and lemmy for more frivolous purposes. YMMV.
How good is the DAC? In the market for a new walkman…
