What is the software setup when you’re actually configuring the minipc/box? Beyond the hardware architecture of the local network, what is the actual stack I should be pursuing and how is it implemented?

For example: I read lots of great things about OPNsense, Wireguard, DietPi… but I don’t know what the exact stew should be and how to set it up ELI5 style.

I was lazy in my langauge. I meant DOCSIS modem -> router/firewall with everything -> access points or hardlined ethernet recipients. Current setup is Arris dedicated (non-wifi) 3.1 to Linksys mesh.

99% of demands are local network performance. No mega streaming needs or huge external traffic. Upload on wireguard (Jellyfin or otherwise) will be pretty limited to a single user at once. But this is not critical. Local network is my usecase.

I am 500/50, will probably up to fiber as soon as it’s available. But again not a lot of external traffic, hyper limited.

So get a switch between the router/minipc/whatever and the rest of the local network instead of many on-board ethernet?

What do I need to run Kimi? Does it have apple silicon compatible releases? It seems promising.

For media, I use Jellyfin on an M1 MacMini.

How do you get around RAM requirements on SBC home servers with little devices like this? I am often streaming 4K files and the encoding/decoding can sometimes be mildly intensive depending on the file.

Considering both Plex and Tailscale are going toward VC exits, Headscale and Jellyfin is the only FOSS way atm.

Buy an LG Smart TV and use the WebOS version of Jellyfin. That’s the best I’ve achieved.

Is there a more detailed guide to this practice and the pros/cons?

Found it, thanks so much.

Very low GB file though. Hope it’s good.

I have Usenet so that is a good lead, thanks.

Regression to the mean.

What’s the best way to sail the seas for this?

The older I get, the more Jackie Brown runs away with it. It really is the most relatable movie as an aging adult, where the rest are generally too fantastical by comparison.

1. Jackie Brown
2. Django
3. Kill Bill The Whole Bloody Affair
4. Basterds
5. Pulp Fiction
6. True Romance
7. Hateful 8
8. Res Dogs
9. Planet Terror
10. From Dusk Til Dawn
11. Death Proof

Including his screenplay-only credits here.

I have still not seen Hollywood. I imagine it would be below Hateful 8 for me.

Jackie Brown is very underrated and easily his best movie IMO.

Reservoir Dogs is a great film, but in the context of his work, generally overrated. It’s more its own piece of film history than something to be compared to his more mature work.

Kill Bill is tough. I think I could make the argument that it’s easily his best film—but for rewatches, Jackie Brown has it beat handily. It’s hard to rewatch the Kill Bill saga conveniently.

The rest are honestly neck and neck. I think Pulp Fiction is #1 when you’re new, but kinda recedes into itself against his whole catalog.

If consumerism was an angel.

This is a complete deflection from the primary point: Kamala ran a campaign that would have done well in 2012. Not 2024. She had no strategy, and in fact did everything she could to not differentiate or excite despite ample historical examples from Obama to Trump on how to do so.

He got effectively the same amount of votes as 2020.

She got 10-12MM LESS than Biden in 2020.

They simply failed while Trump went sideways.

She aligned herself with (1) the most unpopular republican vice president and warmonger of our generation, (2) did not distance herself from an unpopular president, (3) did not on any level run a non-traditional media campaign all while watching the Trump campaign triple down on it.

The actual true answer is that it’s only her fault given the opportunity, but she in fact should never have been given the opportunity—Biden should have prepared to be a one term president and give years of lead time for a competent candidate to challenge the very obvious and inevitable campaign Trump ran.

Trump vote totals is sideways. Hers went down 12MM from 2020.

I live in a red state and vote blue. Trump is bad for the country. But the silver lining is that the Dems are now forced to have self reflection that they refused to have four years ago, and hopefully field a legitimately viable candidate in 2028.

Where do I start for this rabbit hole? That sounds mind blowingly cool.

I personally split the difference now. I think if the hive mind was completely rational, liberty/ancap must work in principle.

But propaganda, and moreover just how much violence people are raised with even still on average in western households, let alone the insane variance in parenting quality from China to the hyper religious Middle East to the current lead-filled (or micro plastic filled?) brains of Trumpers to the insane gang violence of Mexico and South America to the total rape of the continent of Africa… prohibits there from being any volume of rationality required to make it possible for at least another 200 years.

…except before 200 years we will have needed to solve for all of our global crises anyway to avoid extinction (at least there is a non negligible chance)—and thus some mix of socialism via the state, and the “market” AKA Earth dying, with the occasional bout of rational zeitgeist, is the only way to save Earth and explore the stars.
