I have similar thoughts. I use bandcamp for smaller artists but I would recommend nicotine+ on Linux

My thoughts exactly. In Europe it’s part of our social welfare

Level1techs tends to go more into the enterprise server side but Wendell always has some gadget to show off.
I’d also advise to keep an out on the maker space, like raspberryPi or other SBCs, there are inexpensive machines and plenty of guides for various applications which don’t require much Linux knowledge if you’re already doing server stuff.

I’ve seen this recently - https://youtu.be/5ZQra087xOU?si=uJUaC1wv26z2Z7oB
Haven’t looked up a lot on this subject but have a look at https://pikvm.org/

I know there’s an answer but there are also inexpensive IP KVMs if you wanna go that route.

Come to Spain, we have everything

Keep replying, be civil and people will engage with you. Most of us switched to Mastodon to avoid engagement algorithms

I don’t think that just by having an AMD card would solve your issue. Granted that with AMD there’s hardly any setup required.

I also pay for it and watch it on my android TV. And I completely agree with you. But for now it’s my main source of TV and I mainly follow channels I subscribe. I don’t listen to music on YT, i do follow some live music channels

Yeah, but the form factor of the steam deck makes it more appealing if I want to set It up in the living room

Ok. I get it now. I’ve been trying to build something cheap as a Linux gaming setup and I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m better off buying the steam deck.

I would stick with SMB and SSH(SFTP). SMB for content sharing and accessible on any device like PCs or phones. SSH, which includes SFTP, for accessing everything else on the server.

Security starts first with you. Most of the attacks are done though social engineering. Email phishing, dodgy webpage logins. Normal password security behaviour should fine for you to use the pc. More importantly, what is the distro you’re using? Maybe consider using Flatpaks for the apps, they tend to offer more restrictions on access to the system. (Installing the torrent app as a Flatpak and only give it permissions to a specific folder) One of things I tend to do is install chromium just to login on my Google apps, Gmail, YT. But I’m more of a non data sharing freak.

Have a look at this.

You can see the specs and get the idea of what you might need

I use it on my home server, TUI only, when I want to organise my files
