I’ve been hearing this excuse for like a decade now.

Shutting down the government to refuse weapon sales to Israel would be a good thing, goddammit. I’d feel that maybe there’s a shred of humanity left in those ghouls if they had.

I Fucking Love the same joke for 3 years straight!!!

Cue every one of the factory workers at my job to crack jokes about a Chinese invasion all day

Get wrekt

I post as I still have problems with Wayland on Arch lmao

This seems like a dumb tiktok trend or some shit. It’s hard to get by in this world without a cellphone

But I just wish anyone would still want to talk on the phone. I love chatting with friends for an hour or so on the phone but everyone hates it now. Quick random texts just feel so much less personal. Ah well

Becomes king

Fucking dies

Lmaooo

I have a semi-decent Intel NUC that got decommissioned from being a game server, so it’s not really in use.

Do you have any recommendations for a Linux distro or home media OS that I could set it up in the living room to play some emulators, watch Plex off my NAS, maybe some adblocked youtube or spotify, etc?

Pick up and play would be key. A wireless keyboard would be fine but a remote would be ideal

Water is wet

I had no problems at all as recently as this year. I think I was playing over the summer

“the internet is turning into a hellscape so I’m going to make it worse”

Cool? I guess?

Yeah, looking up how to do something on an 8 year old post and finding deleted comments is getting really old. It’s even worse now that Google’s search engine has gone down in a bullshit flaming AI crapshoot and adding reddit to your search is the only way to find a human answer anymore.

Spotify (adblock) from the AUR 😈

Hezbollah has shot missiles into Israel territory frequently and that’s a good thing. Since October 7th they have shot at precise military targets in relation to border skirmishes.

Senior Hamas leadership is a separate entity from the al-Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas, who does have authority to take action without authorization from Hamas (and does frequently). Which is why the escalation and assassination is a bit puzzling, but I do feel Hezbollah being brought into the conflict as a much stronger force is a good thing if it means the destruction of the occupation and genocide being committed by Israel.

I stopped reading at “leading Israeli psychiatrist”

Let’s be real…

If you are torrenting anything, you’re seeding that data, period. So therefore you’re uploading. It’s just the nature of the beast. It’s why you may end up with a letter from your ISP if you raw dog it with no VPN. This may differ depending on what country you reside in.

That being said, best thing I ever did was set up a NAS a couple years ago. I seed all day long and build ratio on private trackers. I watch whatever I want in the quality I want via Plex.

I actually just answered this question on another post in this forum. I’ve been using a KVM to use my living room TV as another screen that I can play games / stream video / generally use my PC which is in my bedroom.

It works great in a max resolution of 4K/60hz and zero latency as far as I can tell on the USB ports for gaming controllers and mouse & keyboard. I use KDE big screen to easily navigate & open programs, emulators, steam, whatever with a controller so I don’t have to try to read tiny 4K text from the couch. I generally find disabling my monitors and enabling my TV works best.

Basically how it works is:

PC (HDMI & USB) -> transmitter -> Ethernet (CAT 6 or better) -> receiver -> TV (HDMI & USB)

The Ethernet wire only connects from the transmitter to the receiver. It does not connect to your network at all.

This is the particular one I got:

Basicolor HDMI KVM USB Extender 4K@60Hz KVM Extender Over Cat5e/Cat6 Up to 60m (196Ft), 4 Ports USB,Lossless or Zero Latency, Plug&Play(Point to Point KVM Extender) https://a.co/d/8Ki2lzw

Other option, if everything is in the same room you could just run some long HDMI or displayport and USB cables.

No, this only really serves one purpose which is utilizing your TV or other distant monitor as another screen for your laptop or desktop.

The Ethernet wire does not connect to the rest of your network. It only goes from the transmitter to the receiver.

What you’re describing is possible however, via some self-hosted services on a server for instance.

Best way to describe it:

PC (HDMI & USB) -> transmitter -> Ethernet -> receiver -> TV (HDMI & USB)

I use the receiver’s USB connections for connecting controllers and wireless mouse & keyboard. I don’t notice any latency whatsoever.

This is the particular one I got:

Basicolor HDMI KVM USB Extender 4K@60Hz KVM Extender Over Cat5e/Cat6 Up to 60m (196Ft), 4 Ports USB,Lossless or Zero Latency, Plug&Play(Point to Point KVM Extender) https://a.co/d/8Ki2lzw

FWIW, I have an old steam link. I can’t remember what video settings I was getting. But I know they weren’t 4K/60hz. I ran one additional cat 6A Ethernet wire to a dedicated KVM from my desktop to my living room OLED TV. I’ve been very impressed by the result. I’ve mostly played a lot of my old favorites on various emulators. It’s been very nice playing through the metal gear solid series in upscaled 4K and avoiding that crap collection that was just released by Konami.

The steam link is cool and I’m glad to see Valve still supporting it all these years later. But the flexibility of a KVM is really nice. I watched a Steelers stream today just using my TV as another monitor basically. And KDE big screen is very nice for navigating things with a controller and not trying to read tiny text in 4K resolution lol
