Anyone that was around while Reddit was growing will remember that there were few subreddits to begin with. I think fediverse needs that to happen before expanding.

I don’t know how to fix it. Maybe sub-feddits need to be pruned if they aren’t thriving. Maybe tags in titles would be more helpful until they have enough content to warrant their on category.

$. Almost every reason for shutting off boils down to lack of financial support to keep it running.

If I wanted to do this today I would use iTunes and an old iPhone as the mp3 player. I would use an old laptop to rip, or iTunes to purchase.

I manage storage systems as part of my day job. i think you would be happy with a simple direct attached storage device. You’d need a storage controller card and a storage controller. These are usually enterprise-grade items so they might be expensive. I suspect there are SATA options but SATA is pretty slow.

QNAP and Synology are decent for what they offer, if you like the idea if turning it on, setting up an account, and then having access to both native and an easy 3rd-party store with no fiddling needed then they are a good idea. You can also setup an iSCSI connection for direct-attached storage over the network.

It’s used for out of band management. With the correct hardware items (nic and gpu) it’s called vPro. With the proper certificate and supporting infrastructure it can auto-enroll into a management service such as SCCM. It allows companies to remotely view logs, bios settings and other items. With vPro it can include a complete remote KVM solution.

You can disable it from most UEFI settings interfaces without worry of causing other issues.

It’s the websites with ads that heat up my phone so much it hurts that are the problem.

there is a lot more to modern firewall app detection than ports. My Palo Alto has a specific category to detect and block dns over https.

It’s trivial for me to detect and block dns over https with modern firewalls.

Consoles will never go away. Even Xbox, effectively a pc, exists.

I suspect it’s because of controllers, ease of use, and cost.

Would it heat up the oceans: yes.

Significantly:no.

If this pans out it would be a lot better than what we are doing now.
