what’s this “probability” based on?

wine exposes the user’s home directory as drive Z: and has full read/write access to it. so, the user’s proper fucked.

edit: I misspoke, Z: exposes the entire root file system, whereas only the /home/user/ has full r/w access.

any mods around? what’s this bullshit have to do with programming?

I don’t know any of those things, wide, narrow, high… how do I determine which I have? compared to what?

I have acknowledged that they’re that, but that’s not what OP asked for - they asked for a cheap setup (which the minis ain’t) and they intend to run a servarr instance, which implies large storage and those are both difficult and not cheap to cram into said minis.

I don’t understand the fascination of other commenters with mini-PCs, as the mini-ness was mentioned nowhere in the OP.

any used and decomissioned old office PC, any i5/i7 is way more powerful than you’ll need for that setup. you get everything you need right in the box and you can cram it full with cheap RAM and hard disks. you get to repurpose something that’s useless as a desktop workstation and not buy more future e-waste.

yes, the mini-PCs and the Rpis are more power efficient, but the operating costs of a $30-50 PC don’t come close to the price of buying one of these mini-things, not to mention - figuring out how to run large hard disks with it.

maybe there’s some way to filter out the stepmothers with the stepfathers on the stepladders…?

thanks. I’m trying to find a cheap 2nd hand device that can run pmOS and has 8 GB RAM and supports USB to DP/HDMI, was hoping this one was on the list.

here are my lutris settings

let me know if you want me to look up something else.

and my axe deduping. all those dlls and wine prefixes that contain them occupy space only once.

did you try it with an external monitor? I guess keyboard and mouse shouldn’t be a problem

kinda like trillian in the olden days… not sure all them proprietary services are gonna let 'em use their platforms though.

mergerfs combines all those drives/mounts/etc into one. so if you have e.g. “Movies” folders on two drives, the new one has one “Movies” folder with the combined contents of those two drives. when writing to this array, the files are stored where there’s (more) space. so searching stuff recursively is simple.

needless to say, there is no redundancy so if a drive dies, its conent is gone from the array.

I’m really sorry for reiterating this, but what you wrote also implies that movies that weren’t on any list will also be deleted (don’t want that), along with the movies that were on a list and now aren’t (do want that). do you have first-hand experience with this?

deleted by creator

tried it, that’s the opposite of what I need. that app guesses what’s going on with the battery, based on prolonged usage patterns. I need something that talks to the battery controller and gives me numbers I can use.

billy removed-tits as well,

the removed part is something he calls himself, wasn’t my stab at him

I get what he’s doing. from his perspective, it’s like as long as the public (three dudes with a shitter account) is pearl-clutching over something I’ve said as a hyperbole, I’ll keep banging this drum and upping the volume and I’ll keep doing it in every special. problem one is, he’s grown tone-deaf and can’t connect to normal people no more.

problemo dos is, his standup is shit and has been for years. from the fucking faked raspy voice then the cigarette on stage because he totally can’t make it without one, like dude you’re so rebel! to the the faked “OMG I collapsed laughing at my own shit” and then audibly banging the mic so it accentuates the non-existing punch line every couple minutes, it’s super annoying.

like CK jokes about equally deranged topics, but the craft is there and it’s flawless. every movement, every breath, every stutter is in the service of delivery… billy removed-tits as well, can’t agree with much of the stuff he’s on about, since he portrays a super exaggerated persona, but the craft is flawless.

this dude better get off his lazy ass and start practicing in front of live audiences and start embracing the sucking and bombing if he ever wants to be considered great. only then can we start dissecting the “jokes”.

QOwnNotes (had to look up the exact name as it’s the stupidest app name ever). but compared to joplin it’s lighter, faster, simpler (no database but individual .md files and folders) and works well enough with syncthing.

what UI library are you using? or is this custom?

I feel like native speakers should read this, they are the number one transgressor when it comes to their/there/they’re and other similar sounding words (homonyms?), as well as “payed” and other creative transcriptions.

for the rest of us it’s damn near impossible to mix these up.

edit: I kinda sound like an asshole; wasn’t meant to be “I’m better than you” (add than/then to the list), more like “here’s my perspective”, no offense was intended.
