I can hear and smell this photo… why do I suddenly want sweets and fizzy pop?
Similar to Glide said above, wanted a space sim and realize it’s more of a survival game. On the opposite end I played a little Elite Dangerous which was WAY TOO INVOLVED space sim!
One of those games I’m glad I bought at launch, although I’ve fired it up 3-4 times and struggled with the mechanics… it’s nice to know it’s still evolving and I can always start fresh again with the new content. If I wasn’t so deep into Helldivers I’d give it another go right now… but Democracy can’t wait!
This is probably the one for me, really digging the level of customization and it’s easy to navigate.
Thanks everyone for the comments so far, I’m including 3 screenshots of how a post looks in all 3 locations (Memmy, Photon & Arctic)
I think Arctic is the winner for me, I like the layout and settings. Also Memmy removed the swipe from left to access subscribed communities and it’s been impossible to get out of the habit, Arctic seems to do it!
Thank you @CurbsTickle@lemmy.world
I'll probably spring for the Anker USB-A adapter, it'll be useful to have any way.
After days of testing, a mix of Direct Playing 4K DoVi/HDR10 (HEVC Main 10) on my 4K Apple TV and different media on other devices during the day and constant ping, mtr
and iperf3
across devices, I've determined this problem is totally random lol! Went 48 hours of TBs transferred between devices with iperf
and a day of content playing, no problem, then randomly I'll see Link is down
on the NIC and I can't ping it until it comes back up like it did this morning.
Might find a Linux community to share my syslog and see if any other suggestions for troubleshooting exist and make sure it isn't something else with my network/unmanaged switches. But I might be burning time/energy on broken hardware and time to give up on it.
@phanto@lemmy.ca I'll see if era ships to the US and make sure to be extra cautious of the listing description. Might also see if I can find a US equivalent.
Hey CurbsTickle
Thank you so much for the tips, with a mix of googling, bit of GPT4 and straight smashing my head against the desk, I've gotten Proxmox installed on the Mac Mini and ordered 16GB of RAM (figured it's worth the $40). Fought a serious battle trying to get to the startup manager with my mechanical keyboard and Dell monitor, eventually got it to boot from the thumb drive and install. I've got an LXC setup with Debian 12 and installed Plex, even managed to get my existing Plex Media folder from my external drive mounted in the container!
Next steps are the IVPN Wireguard killswitch VPN LXC and Transmission LXC, based on the quick reading I've done, it looks like iptables rules is the way to go. I'll more than likely be writing a big post in selfhosted lemmy soon asking if anyone has achieved this already and has the steps. I might look at the *arrs but that is a later project, I am fine with searching, downloading and renaming/moving the files when I want to watch something. We don't have regular shows we download right now.
Final questions before I head into the deep dark world of home server communities.
- Doing the Plex setup quickly, I gave it 1 core and 1GB of RAM, gonna guess this isn't enough, if I'm doing Direct Play and transcode for subtitles, how much RAM and how many Cores would you throw at it with my system?
- Can this be updated or do I need to create a whole new lxc container if I want to add more cores/ram to it?
- For my HD 4000, is it of any use to me with Plex, or is it already being utilized due to it being integrated?
- Can I setup a SMB share from the mounted disk in Proxmox? I created a mount point in Proxmox and then edited the containers config file so it mounted in the container.
- Any final tips on MUST DO setup on the Proxmox side? Happy to nuke a container and recreate it if need be, but I'd like to make sure the Proxmox side of the house is in a good place from day 1!
Thanks again
I should add, I’ve been paying monthly for Plex for years. Finally got the lifetime membership last year, although I don’t love Plex’s decisions, I feel financially obligated to keep using it for at least a few more years.
Really wish there was a good Lemmy community for Helldivers, I've been back on the "site that shall not be named" to find out updates and see what people are saying. It's easily one of the best games I've played in a long time!
All I want to do is play more Helldivers 2 on PS5. The good and bad news is that everyone else is feeling similar and I know the experience hasn’t been perfect, but I’ve got faith in the developers! I’ve had success with matchmaking and I find the game so much fun when you are in a squad!
The year before GoW 2018, he released Drawn to Death… PS Plus release that had some cool style but otherwise crap game! He was relevant back in the late 90s and early 2000s… but now his opinion hardly matters and he’s a bit of a drama queen. I don’t really give a shit what he thinks.
Gonna be following this posts comments for some tips! I’m running Proxmox on an old 2012 Mac Mini which I’ve Frankenstein’d with an SSD and RAM as much as I can, the NIC is dead and I’ve resorted to USB Ethernet. I’ve not messed with exposing my server externally, I’m intrigued but also have a router with OVPN VPN network capability. I use a LXC for Plex (Debian) and a VM (Debian again) with Docker installed. Docker runs Haugene (look it up for VPN torrents), Screeps server and WikiJS. I have a Raspberry Pi 3B running PiHole, might set it up as a backup and use the Proxmox server as the primary. But I’m definitely ready for new hardware soon and I’d like to look into NAS storage, right now I’m using a rather sketch 4TB external USB drive for media (shit I don’t care about).
