I wish CPUs would all have a fuse bit to permanently disable those "security co-processors". They are running who knows what and don't do the average user any good.

What kind of files?
I use Kodi to keep track of what TV shows and movies I've watched.
Cat5e works fine for gigabit. If it's not connecting at 1G, then the cable has been damaged and is probably connecting at 100M.
You should be seeing about 118MB/s in an iperf test on gigabit ethernet.
Most of my drives are EXT4, but I started using BTRFS a couple years ago and will be using it on all new installs from now on. I really like being able to make snapshots and compression reduces the install size quite a bit.
It would have been nice if they came up with something shorter like .lan.
It doesn't matter to me if games that use rootkit anticheat don't work on Linux. I would never install anything that requires a rootkit.
It's either 2K or 4K video. The bitrate needs to be high because any compression artifacts would be very obvious on a huge screen.
It's packaged with two DOS emulators and a large amount of scanned documentation, that's why the file is so big.
I'm not sure what features it has that makes anyone want to still use it instead of a modern program. I certainly wouldn't want to be limited to an 80x24 character screen when editing a large text file.
It's a closed source program. There's not going to be any source code unless somebody goes through the massive effort of reverse engineering it. That effort would be much better spent improving a clone such as WordTsar.
OLED displays are very bright, but running them at full brightness will reduce the life quite a bit and make it much easier to get burn in. The best option is to just close the curtains if there is direct sunlight glaring on the screen.
Kodi doesn't do any transcoding. It just mounts the NFS share and plays the file.
