R.O.T.O.R. they teases the sequel at the end, but I guess it’ll never happen.

I’m holding out for a movie and Frozone.

HBO, because of the last two seasons of Games of Thrones. I can’t get over how easy the Night King was defeated and no more ice babies.

Also, now leaving a system running for months on end without windows updating on its own is possible.

Cost

Yeah. Seems to work good on an older laptop I resurrected.

Nice. I’m running bodhi on an older i3 Asus. Works great. Have fun

Turbo tax, but the web option is available. I think handbrake doesn’t support hardware acceleration? I forget… this may not be accurate…

Yeah, my parents went from Roku to Amazon to have the option of side loading. Good thing jellyfin is all I need.

This is the real answer to everyone. Limit access to the Bluetooth connection or don’t use the headunit.

You can get a car, just don’t connect your phone to it.

Tailscale may work for you.

Also, some apps and sites do not work from mullvad vpn. I know that Redcard and some parts of Ally are restricted.

Maybe not OTA yet?

Which rom did you pick?

There is a link about how to start on the git page. The initial work is fixing compiler warnings and other easy bugs.

I’m thinking to learn more to help with the Google TV app.

Yeah, really need traffic data with route alternative.

I ended up going with a synology Nas as i didn’t need high performance CPU and wanted a turn key solution. For what you get hardware wise, its low value, but if you factor in software and support, it works out to OK value.

You mentioned your parents will be using this. What services are you hoping to host? Outside network access is another rabbit hole.

Check the hardware requirements of the services you plan the host, but from what ir sounds like, you would likely be better served with decent pc 8th gen Intel with the storage in a 4 bay NAS or internal to the PC.

I suggested 8th gen Intel as a min for video transcoding (if needed)

Running on a synology, but it’s not cheap. I like having direct access to my stuff if I can. Next step is cloud backup of my local , i think borg or something is very popular.

I’m going to say that self hosting becomes a fun hobby once you get your core services running. Core in this case means the services that are bringing you into selfhosting.

I see how to do it from the viewer, but not a great experience.
