My cheapo dumb tv died a couple of years back, was a great bit of kit for $400au that gave me 10 years. I've got a "smart" tv at the moment which isn't connected to the internet, and just serves as the display for my Shield TV.

I'd probably consider an LG commercial / signage display as my next device, some old work connections can get me one as a special purchase through their distribution channels it's just waiting out the current panel dying.

If you've got a m.2 slot in the mini PC you could add a cheap 5 sata port m.2 and connect them that way. If you don't want to solder power you could really make it a butcher job and hack up the power from the sata to usb connectors.

Sucks to hear about your loss, I've recently lost my proxmox setup and migrated everything to Nixos. My install threw a wobbly, terminal was cooked, could only ssh into some containers so I wiped the install and migrated.

In my proxmox setup I found it easier to mount the drives as lvm to the host proxmox machine and pass them through to lxc via bind-mounts rather than adding another layer of shares / overheads.

I was a YouTube premium family account owner. Paid for myself, my partner and three friends accounts (think it was five slots?)

The recent price hike was too much, so I've been using frontends as of late.

The YouTube premium experience is seamless, much faster than the frontends but at the same time your getting shit shoveled down your throat at every chance.

I've had lots of issues with libretube servers as of late. Pipe pipe is better but overall since I dropped my sub I've been watching far less on YouTube as a whole.

The volume of Deathadder mice my brothers, I and our friends went through when younger due to double clicks and scroll wheel issues was absurd.

I've had my Superlight since their release, used every day for work and many nights gaming. No issues so far.

I'll probs have to migrate back over, grub will be written to on every rebuild for what I'm assuming is adding entries. Not sure of the inner workings all I know is it's caused me headaches a couple of times now.

Ahh until something hangs when updating grub. Had it happen twice over the last couple of months. No real biggie as it's not the hardest thing to recover from / easy enough to pull my config and rebuild.

Maybe it's me, maybe it's Nixos or Grub.

I've been using Niagara Launcher on my S10 / P7P with only a handful of icons on my home screen.

The majority of programs I swipe up for a search bar with keyboard. I find it much faster than swiping homepages / folder to dig up a program to launch.

No issues in games, it's the steam client which has issues.

Now that I remember Firefox extensions too are having issues with overlays (bitwarden) but I've not updated my system in a couple of weeks which might to be to blame here.
