I feel like only us in the UK have one of these by default

I've been considering Mimestream a lot lately, especially for how it works with focuses but I really need an iOS app as well.

Epic made me crack up on the bus to work

Justice league of Star Trek crew ultimate team up….

Where is this movie and how do I pay to see it :/ yes it would likely be terrible but seeing Kirk vs Janeway dynamic or spock vs Kira debates arguments etc

And those are the first two that come to mind

I guess some more lore for the Talosians could be cool I just hope they aren’t over used through snw

Originally I had planned to do what you’re doing and use a mini PC to upgrade from my pi4 eventually what I did was get a Mac Mini and keep the pi for pihole and dhcp.

Not saying you should get a Mac mini m2 but the power consumption was the main push for me to go down that route cause remember you’re running the thjng 24/7 for years and depending where you live electricity isn’t cheap. (I pay 32.5p per kWh)

Considering the cost the same as a decently mid range mini pc (i got mine for £500 new) it makes sense.

If you’re looking at a cheaper budget try finding something at least 8th gen intel and up for better power savings

This is pretty much me today or me any time I told any friends about Linux

I like that even Elon fanboys I know have started to realise what a complete idiot he is, how you can fuck up running Twitter so bad is incomprehensible.

Hopefully with him burning it into the ground people see him for the charlatan he is and stop giving him so much respect.

Fair, I'll just be patient

One issue I seem to run into quite a bit now is that if I try to access a community from another instance from this account I get 404 errors as example if I try to go to: https://startrek.website/c/pcmasterrace@lemmy.world

I'm wondering If this is intended behaviour or something I might have done wrong?

Can anyone tell me the advantage of selfhosting Lemmy?

I have my Raspberry Pi which is only doing pihole atm and I've got an M2 Mac mini with some spare resources with docker installed so I've got hardware for it but what does it actually do?

Honestly Plex/Emby/Jellyfin whichever you prefer is a gamechanger because if you have a large library of content then it just cuts the cord from the subscription services.

I've always been happy to pay for them until I went on holiday last January and realised that none of my services were working due to going to a country that was out of the way and the only way to access them was to use a VPN.

So having my own Netflix is a great thing.

Tailscale while doing the above is also really cool
