Light roasted coffee has more caffeine than dark roasted coffee.

Technically, per bean, more of the caffeine is cooked out of the dark roast. However, other things are also roasted out of a dark roast to the point that the individual beans are also lighter and smaller. When brewing coffee, usually you either weigh your dose of beans out, or you use a scoop for some consistency. Either method will result in more dark roast beans ultimately making it into the brew than would with a (larger, heavier) light roast.

Typically, this more than cancels out the reduced caffeine content per bean, so a brew of dark roast coffee still typically has more caffeine in it.

Just realized your username is HiddenRetro and I'm Retro. I have the side window and you don't. 😂

Any reason to use PiHole over something like Adguard DNS?

Oh boy, how much detail do you want? 😅

I have a TrueNAS Scale server in my closet that I built with my old desktop's 9900k. Mirrored SSDs for app data and a 3x raidz2 volume with 6 16TB disks each (174TiB). Using quicksync for transcoding performance when remote. I have Plex installed with the official charts App in TrueNAS.

I used Kodi for a long time, and it still does certain things better than Plex (as a media player), but Plex does everything I want it to quite well. I'm running it on my TV here using a Shield TV Pro, but I use it on my android phone, Roku, browser... Always works great.

Confirmed, not a Viceroy!

😆 Yeah, I've been pretty audio obsessed lately! I'll probably change out those cheap acoustic foam panels for some nicer looking wooden paneling or something soon. The 85" TV makes those speakers look a bit meager...

Even though my girlfriend is over here most of the time and I have an PC setup for her, I think this still counts as a Male Living Space since she has her own house, too (on the same block as me lol).

SFF is a lot of fun. The case way in that corner is actually a Cooler Master NR200P: https://files.catbox.moe/k7jpq1.jpg

The case in my post description photo is a Fractal Torrent with the grill painted gold. 😎

Thanks. Awesome show! Don't know how I feel about how it ended. 😅 I won't spoil anything, though.

Sure! It's a pretty middle of the line budget ultrawide: Nixeus EDG 34" (Bought back in 2019 - I'd probably go QD-OLED these days, although I'll wait and see how burn-in goes for folks who bought some of these first gen monitors). The Nixeus is great for the price, but I do notice some color striping at its highest refresh rate (144Hz), so I run it at 120Hz instead.

I installed a monitor arm for it, but it looks like the specific one I bought is no longer available: HUANUO Single Arm Monitor Stand

Did some math based on that number since it seemed pretty insane. That would mean that each side of the outer hull would have been moving inward at about 425mph by my estimate. Seems slower than I would expect by that number, but 4ms is hella fast.

Hopefully it's better than the animated series they did... 🤞

Should be fine. All the memory will just need to run at the speed of the slower kit. Make sure you put the sticks in the correct channels for dual channel support. But yeah, maybe only do so when you actually need the memory.
