Would love some more photos. I'm likely going to build similar specs in that case when the 50xx range release.

I think you mean an Intel CPU for transcoding. Pretty much every piece of software can use QuickSync for hwaccel. My Celeron NAS can handle 3 simultaneous Plex transcodes as well as a 5-camera Frigate setup without breaking a sweat.

To OP - if you want energy efficiency AND ML, you will want pre-baked models that can be used on an edge compute device like Google Coral.

With the removal of the Tidal API from Plexamp, I will be sorely missing my discovery recommendations. Will need to give this a shot using Last.fm scrobbling (already supported in Plex).

WTF you think happened in 2020? No one could leave their house, so video game went gang busters.

I worked at a video game retailer then, and it was the busiest we've ever been.

Welcome to the existentialist crew! It's a great and humbling place to be.

Great game made by some devs who used to work at Halfbrick (Fruit Ninja/Jetpack Joyride fame). Highly recommend playing with an actual DJ turntable for the full fantasy. Also had a recently released VR mode.

On top of all that, https://spinsha.re/

They were definitely worth the effort before if you were specifically going for the Mysterious Chests. Now those have been boosted in cost, it may be less worthwhile.

That being said, uniques can now drop from Helltide chests, and drop rates for non-Mysterious chests have been increased so it might be a zero-sum change.

Another vote for Synology here. I previously had a DS418play for almost 8 years. Just picked up a DS423+ recently to upgrade and the process was literally as simple as removing the drives from the old NAS, chucking them in the new NAS, and booting up. All my Docker containers, all my credentials, all my licenses were all just there and working, despite being in a new shell.

Also want to call out the importance of 4-bay vs. 2-bay. With 2-bay you get 1-drive fault tolerance in RAID mode, which is nice. With 4-bay, you can still opt for 1-drive fault tolerance and with SHR you can have 4 drives active (of varying sizes) giving you much more available space and making the upgrade path of storage significantly easier.

  • Nova Lands just came out and has native controller support. Works very well, even if it's somewhat simplistic.
  • Factorio just released controller support which works well most of the time but it's kinda fiddly.

Also, beware that DSP does not support cloud saves because the devs can't compress their save data enough to fit in the Steam cloud requirements.

I've been using this for around 8 months now on PC and Deck.

  • Having multiple sync profiles each with different configurations is great if you use a variety of devices.
  • The hall effect sticks are obviously great.
  • Some of the programmable button combos can come in handy.

The only things I don't like about them are:

  • Sometimes it doesn't connect first try to my PC.
  • The right trigger developed a squeak after Diablo 4.

Would still definitely recommend though because you're basically getting an Xbox Elite controller for the price of a standard Xbox controller.

Just reporting back that I did the work last night to change the ingestion order for my cameras. I'm now using the go2rtc component of frigate as the first ingestion point. That component is serving a restream to both Frigate and my NAS' NVR. It's working much better now, with less frame delay, and less CPU usage on the NAS.

 

Been using this for over 6 months now and have not really been tempted to try anything different. Using ink black linear switches in a self-printed gasket mount case.
