Oh man I cannot stand it, it’s a tolerable meme format at best when used correctly, but I find it insufferable when it’s applied mindlessly like this

Thanks man, there are dozens of us looking for something like this!

I thought Proton Mail’s free tier offered third party email client support, it just needed some kind of decryption thingy running in the background?

A very important distinction

I believe so, I don’t think it’s a very involved process, but it requires plugging in a USB drive at a certain point during boot. Some people have automated it with an arduino, but from what I can tell as long as the machine stays on stand by you don’t need to re-jailbreak it.

I’ve been looking into this recently, it’s possible for both base and pro models if they’re under firmware version 9.0, anything above that is not yet exploitable, plus it’s a softmod so it’s a straightforward process, although it’s not persistent across reboots so it’s most convenient to leave it in sleep mode rather than power off. I think psx-place is one of the big forums for these things, but all the information is pretty readily available around the place. Good luck with it!

Edit: Turns out a kernel exploit for firmware up to and including 11.00 was released on April 30th, however no one has yet made a jailbreak for it. So while it will be jailbroken soon, currently only up to 9.00 is supported.

It’s like Kodi-lite, specifically for shows? It’s not for me, but cool that it’s out there

The Linux way, as it was written.

I’d only recommend Duolingo to dip a toe in. If after awhile you’re wanting a bit more, I’ve had a good experience with Deutsch Welle’s german course - https://learngerman.dw.com/en/learn-german/s-9528

Also Babel is excellent but pricey.

The irony of monopoly becoming a megolithic franchise

It surely goes hard

I struggle to believe that the content is worthwhile with a thumbnail like that… but you’ve piqued my intrest, well done

Bro

The same is true for most professions I feel

Have you considered some kind of remote mouse app? There’s multiple good options out there, wifimouse.github.io/ for example

Sometimes the only winning move is not to play

You should be able to, ahem, find some convinent ROM collections on most torrent indexers. A standard NES game is only ~128kb, so the whole library of games is only like 750mb. It scales exponentially with every generation as data storage improved, so the SNES library is 2gb, the N64’s is 5gb, and the PS3’s is 20tb. I find that I really don’t need the full library of a consoles releases available, so I usually only choose maybe a hundred or two that I’m interested in, there’s only so much time in the day. If you don’t need a handheld device I can recommend modding your ps3, it can emulate most anything, the hombrew scene is active and there’s been a lot of support for it, plus for the majority of consoles it’s a full custom firmware solution, so it’s a pretty seemless experience once you set it up. Plus with the internal hdd there’s plenty of space for stuff. Pretty much everything up to last gen is easily pirateable, so have fun with it, it’s easy once you get the hang of it.

I would definitely recommend consumer grade hardware for a small home server, I ran older server gear (dual e5645+42GB ram) and found it to be loud and power hungry, especially at idle. Moved over to only slightly newer consumer stuff (i5-3470+8GB ram) and it still did what I needed it to, without costing $40AUD a month to run.

8GB of RAM is perhaps a bit limiting at times but I’ve not yet run into any critical issues because of it. I wouldn’t want to try simultaneous, high bit-rate transcodes on it but aside from that it’s been fine for my use case.
