You can just enable airplane mode…

there’s still not really sd cards or flash drives bigger than 1tb

There are actually 2tb microSD cards now, and 4tb flash drives

So rent a budget VPS and tunnel your home server through it?

Why rent? If you have fiber and aren’t behind CGNAT you can host from your home

5TB requires you to be a company??? My personal NAS already has 92TB

But corn fed tastes better

You know this is more than enough reason to fire you once your IT department finds out

Most manufacturers only list average power draw, but in HDR mode you can get much higher peak power useage.

This website also lists peak power draw for many TVs, in this example the Bravia 9 85 inch has a peak of 380W

Your research would be incorrect

Gigantic 80" screens generally draw something like 120W

In HDR mode they can draw a lot more than that for short peaks

Yes. I run PopOS and Hackintosh on my Thinkpad, use the new M4 Mac Mini as my main desktop (with hopes of Asahi Linux support in the future), and run unRAID on my completely overpowered Ryzen 5900x NAS, where I have a Win10 LTSC VM for the rare occasion I need to run software that only runs on x86 Windows.

I would prefer to only use Linux if I could, but MacOS is very competent and far superior to Windows in my opinion. I have never had any issues accessing my unRAID shares on it

There is nothing coming close to /r/steroids on Lemmy. The reason that subreddit is so great is that the moderators there are very quick at deleting noob questions that are answered in the wiki, and will quickly call out anyone giving dangerous advice.

Even on reddit the competing subreddits like /r/PEDs and /r/testosterone are absolute garbage that probably got dozens of people killed from a heart attack or stroke at this point

Sadly there is still no good replacement for /r/steroids and /r/drugs over here. Maybe I need to take things into my own hands, but I’m not really interested in building up these communities from the ground up.

There is still a few niche subreddits I “need” to visit Reddit for, but I at least try to stay away from /r/all and browse Lemmy instead

You just happened to work in a tourist area that is above the budget of most of our worst offenders (sorry if this sounds classist, it’s absolutely not meant that way)

When people refer to “the Hummer” they almost always mean the H1

I didn’t buy my EV for sustainability reasons, I bought it because it was the most cost effective and convenient commuter car for my specific driving profile.

The sustainability is just a nice bonus for me that I don’t care too much about.

Plant a hyperaccumulator (like cannabis for example 😍) to absorb all the toxins from the soil

On the other hand printers always work out of the box on Linux without even installing any drivers, whilst getting them go work on Windows can often be a nightmare

OK, do you want me to tell 50 users of my Plex server that they can no longer use their shitty 10 year old smart TV to watch my movie library, and instead have to pay money buy a chromecast dongle, and then get a completely different UI and lose all their view progress on TV series? They’d just go back to paying for Netflix.

And yes, I have users that struggle even with the Plex app. My father can’t figure out how to use his dumb-phone to call a contact, and is only able to accept incoming calls. It took months to teach him how to use the Plex app, switching him to a different one will take just as long
