Before Soundboks went industrial they made portable speakers for festival goers by hooking a speaker up to car batteries and putting it in a nice box. I imagine you can get a nice setup following their footsteps. Unfortunately Soundboks is more than twice your budget so I can't recommend them on that alone, but a cheap second-hand speaker (or some drivers and an empty box so you can fit batteries inside too), a car battery, and a cheap microphone should be doable below €200-€300.
Would you prefer "Was late to his own funeral"?
I think that's what'll be on mine.
Yes I do in fact. We need to lower the economical impact of production too, consumption is just a drop in the bucket. To put it in perspective, I can run my PC from a second hand generator. Most low end generators might even be able to run 10s of my PCs. A datacenter training the high end LLMs that I could be running needs a nuclear power plant worth of energy. We are talking multiple magnitudes of difference.
I suppose you don't consider the coal-powered electricity that powers your EV when reflecting over your impact too?
You can run a fully fletched LLM at home but you can't train the model. The latter is a huge contributor to power consumption. Running it is peanuts in comparison.
It's Top Secret!
As a vodka enjoyer, I do love me a good Vodka Martini. But that shaken thing Bond has going on is pure blasphemy.
It's worth remembering that the taste doesn't just come from the vodka so the vermouth is equally important.
Yes, except of course The Scene. IIRC only two of the mentioned trackers still exist today.

And here I am wasting my money on 24 TB obsolete HDDs when I could have just bought SSDs.
I'm fully Dockerized (well, uhh... Podmanized) and I'm dual-wielding Plex and Jellyfin. Runs smoothly and both only have read to the content. All management of the media is handled by the *arr stack anyway. I even set up a volume for Plex to throw conversions into that Jellyfin can't see. I'm currently personally using Jellyfin and I'm waiting for Jellyfin to be good enough (or Plex bad enough...) for the users I share with to switch over.
I can definitely recommend that setup.
