7 Days To Die. It may have taken them 10 years, but the game is pretty solid now. This release has a huge number of quality of life changes, fixes and is extremely performant compared to many previous alphas. Great fun with friends.

I honestly don't know what would happen, but I wouldn't try it. Hard disks are sensitive things.

You may have seen this already, but on the GloriousEggroll Github it mentions not having V-sync set to "Auto"

Is this only with Warframe? Do you use X11? If so, could it be defaulting to a lower Hz second monitor or something? I suffered with this for years until I swapped to Wayland. Just a thought.

The HBA can definitely handle hot swapping, but I'm pretty sure you need a backplane for it to work. If I remember correctly, it needs the capacitors on the backplane's PCB to allow for the power drain. I'm not sure those cables alone will do.

I have this HBA in my homelab server and was surprised to find it has two SAS controller in it. I can't remember exactly what I had to do to flash it, but I needed to flash both controllers using an EFI prompt so they became one controller. It took an afternoon of research, but I eventually flashed both of them to IT mode and it worked as expected. I'm pretty sure this thread helped me at the time:

Good luck!

This caught me. I had to restore my instance from backup yesterday after loading the app and it not working. I use the fdroid version and it won't be updated for a while...

Remember, always backup you data, kids.

If by locally you mean all on the same PC, then absolutely. Anything can be a server. Look into running docker on your PC, and then running a Navidrome container on that. There is a bit of a learning curve, but it's nothing a YouTube video couldn't teach you (pay attention to anything about persistent storage). Once you have it running, connect to it with 127.0.0.1:4533 (localhost) using a browser, scan your media, and then connect your clients to it with 127.0.0.1 too. Good luck :)

I have this and use it everyday. I use Beets to give the files metadata (using Musicbrainz and the Discogs plugin as a fallback). I then host Navidrome as a music server and connect it to Last.fm. Once you have all that in place, find a client that does Radio or Instant mixes and it works like a charm. The two clients I use the most for this are SonixD on PC, and Symfonium on Android. If you're feeling adventurous, then host a VPN at home and connect into your Navidrome server using your phone client, and you have mixes on the go! :)

I've been using a Zidoo Z9X for streaming local media. Not cheap, but very powerful and has a huge amount of features. It'll play just about anything you throw at it, all locally.

Yep. When I first set up my instance, I couldn't believe how slow it was. I set up redis using the Nextcloud documentation and its like butter now.

De-Googling is something I did about 5 years ago. It took me about 6 months on and off, but I'm super happy I did. There are always other (and actually better) alternatives to their services. The only one that I struggle not to use is YouTube - the alternatives are all worse.
