Forget apple, we need more banana/banana creme ice cream flavors.

GameCube and PS2 games work incredibly well on the Steam Deck. Some PS3 and Xbox 360 as well. I’ve played through several PS2 games and all of TLoZ Windwaker on my deck.

Fuck that noise too.

Technically, the “best” option would be to VLAN the WiFi network separately from a wired network where all the important devices are connected.

But honestly, for normal people, that’s over the top. Try WPA3 first and see if you have any devices that won’t work over it. If you run into issues, swap over to WPA2. I generally say start stricter and loosen the metaphorical belt only as necessary.

That’s okay, it had to be done.

You’re right, but it does still work.

Downloading music from YouTube will get you MP3s, but they will have gone through the YT compression algorithms.

Use Deemix instead. Downloads MP3s straight from the Deezer servers with all metadata and album art.

I personally use VGCollect. I also keep a spreadsheet of all my physical media.

Was this written by Windows 11?

Everyone else has described the complications that a Mac mini would have. So why not consider something else? Lenovo, HP, and Dell make 1l ultra small form factor PCs and they’re pretty cheap on eBay. They’re also low power. Search for Tiny Mini Micro to find information.

I have three Lenovo Thinkcentre machines - two with 32gb RAM and one with 64gb RAM - running my Proxmox VE cluster. Highly recommend using those small machines instead of a Mac mini.

Going to have to disagree, Teleroboxer and Red Alert were awesome.

Why are those patch cables so long?!

Huh, TIL. It’s still working just fine, so I’ll keep using it. Guess there won’t be any updates though.

There’s a Linux install of Teams. I’ve never tried it on Debian but it works fine in Ubuntu. Use it for work every day.

If purchasing something doesn’t mean you own it, then piracy isn’t theft.

Just out of curiosity, what drive configuration are you running?

Exactly. This is a terrible idea. I’m fairly certain that anyone caught doing this would be immediately fired at some companies.

I use teams on a daily basis for work, so I understand it can be a phone replacement. That doesn’t negate the issue though. The whole thing is a distraction from driving.

That is a terrible idea, we need fewer people talking while on the road. Not people joining in on an entire meeting.

Risking sounding like a broken record, I always suggest Tiny/Mini/Micro 1L form factor office PCs. Lenovo, Dell, and HP all create ultra small office PCs that make great low power servers. A Pi will use 5-9w at idle, while these PCs will use 11-13w idle. They also use more standard components such as NVME drives, 2.5" drives, and replaceable RAM. Easy to find under $100 USD used, I’m sure you can find them under 100 euro.
