I’ve bought a few Gmktek Intel N97 mini-pcs on Amazon (US) for around $200 usually. So far I’ve only used them for htpc @ 1080p but N97 GPU has a higher boost than N100 GPU so I imagine should do alright for lots of emulators too.

Their project timeline being really short combined with a really low “flexible goal” of $69,780 doesn’t give me a lot of confidence in it releasing or shipping on time if it ever does.
On ‘Startup’ section, what options are available for ‘Boot Mode’ ? May want to try using something other than Quick during OS install. Should be able to change it back afterwards for faster boots.
Slicers for FDM are open source and lots of forks. The built-in printer profiles vary a lot but can be created from scratch. You can find lots online to use as examples too. I currently use Cura, Prusaslicer, and Orcaslicer.
I’m more interested in printing plastic than tuning/upgrading the printer itself so I recommend a printer with automatic z-offset and bed leveling. Basic maintenance tasks such as cleaning, oiling, and greasing will need to be done on occasion no matter the printer. Beyond that I’ve only done simple retraction tuning.
I started with Elegoo Neptune 3 Pro. Klipper firmware upgrade improved speeds a lot. It wasn’t bad for a budget printer but lack of automatic z-offset can be frustrating so I replaced & gave it away to friend. Replaced it with Creality K1 which was a lot easier to get started with thanks to automatic z-offset calibration. Output quality is good but to get better would require upgrades + tuning. Been saving up to replace with Bambu Lab P1S combo so I can also do multi-color printing.
Hot Wheels has Marvel series of cars too and took picture of this “well known” one recently.
Looking at Intel specs for that model of CPU has ‘Intel Turbo Boost Technology’ as ‘No’ so it may not be possible to get rid of the warning but fine to ignore. https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/122590/intel-core-i3-7020u-processor-3m-cache-2-30-ghz.html#tab-blade-1-0-7
Here’s a similar issue on their github, https://github.com/AdnanHodzic/auto-cpufreq/issues/446 Sounds like it should still be able to slow down the CPU but it won’t be able to change turbo boost due to processor not supporting that feature.

I swapped out delta fan a few months after release, agree fairly straightforward. Upgraded the nvme ssd to 1tb sometime before replacing with OLED model.
I’d recommend using distro you know best and/or most prefer to work with. I use the flatpak install of Jellyfin Media Player but there are also deb files available.
I’m currently using minipc with Intel n5105 (or something similar) for 1080p HTPC. Debian 12 OS with auto-login & Jellyfin Media Player starting at login. I control it with pepper jobs RF remote but also have a logitech wireless keyboard+touchpad for it. Keyboard+touchpad come in handy when browsing media sites on firefox but some might restrict quality. Some of the newer minipc’s I tried required adding backports repo to install newer kernel for wifi to work. I had been playing with Debian a lot when I set up first one & been using clonezilla to image them so it’s stuck.
Ordered a gmtek n97 minipc to play with and should have it in about a week. Going to test it out with 4k but it’s not a deal breaker for me if it cannot handle that well enough.
I think it’s because Steam compresses the data before sending it and limits CPU usage. I still use local file transfer between desktop and Steam Deck because rarely in much of a rush.
To find the numerical user ID (uid) and group ID (gid) of an account or group you can use the ‘id’ command such as: id root
As for which one to use on ownership and docker, that will vary widely and would require knowing more about how things are setup. I’d try to use the same one that is running the docker commands.
I had issues with DNS checks and traced it to my pihole. I changed that container’s resolv.conf to use cloudflare DNS and it has been working fine since. It was with Caddy so needed to change over to use IPs.
Sometimes I’ll lower resolution or quality just so a game loads quicker.
Another thing to remember is the client needs to support decoding the video in hardware or have enough CPU to handle it in software. I have intel i7 (3rd gen) with no hardware HEVC/x265 support but it has enough CPU to power through.
Plex still wins on client compatibility, ease of server & client setup, and at least has the 3 commonly used oidc login providers available.
Jellyfin you may need to point external clients to your server manually as well as setup everything so they can actually connect. There are so many ways to do this that it can be paralyzing to actually decide which to try as a beginner. Local clients can usually use discovery if the firewall and container are setup correctly for the jellyfin server. Accounts have to be created manually unless you use something like jfa-go. For oidc, there’s only 3rd party plugin in alpha state and looks like people use it so guess it works well enough.
As others have said, you can have both running on the same system pointed at the same content. If you’re following the plex naming scheme should match pretty well in jellyfin, nfo files work really well for jellyfin metadata too. Lets you get an idea of it and whether it could meet your needs.
I mostly switched to Jellyfin over 3 years ago, shutdown my plex server 2 years ago after many tiny annoyances over the years. I had tried to get my family switched over but it is too much hassle for them and myself still. Been working on setting up some cheap htpc’s for that purpose but it’s not a priority for me.
2X speed was impressive for the time too :)
I’ve had good luck with refurbished Dell laptops. My primary laptop is a refurbished Dell Latitude 11" 3120. Bought it for ~$250 at beginning of this year and currently have Fedora on it. It’s not very powerful. I use it primarily to browse the web, watch movies/tv, and vnc/ssh to my other systems. Can last about 5-6 hours streaming video from jellyfin at 50% brightness, other stuff barely uses any power and can stretch out to 9-10 hours if I set display brightness even lower.
I’ve always bought Windows laptops then put linux on them so I’m used to verifying that tools such as TLP are installed, configured, enabled, and working. There is too much variety with laptops for all of them to be handled automatically unfortunately so I always verify it. If a laptop came with Linux pre-installed then it might be good to go ootb but I’d still verify.
The 2X part means the DVD drive could read DVDs at up to 2X speed
Quick way to check if a program is using hardware video acceleration is with a gpu top utility.
Intel - intel_gpu_top
Nvidia - nvidia-smi / nvtop
AMD - radeontop / nvtop / amdgpu_top (just did quick search, don’t have any AMD powered on to verify)
That is normal https port, some websites may reference it directly while others skip it, it is fine. You can edit permissions on a per site basis to always ask, block, or allow location access by clicking on the lock icon > Connection (secure/unsecured) > More Information, then change to Permissions tab and set it how you want.
If tired of being prompted about location on all sites you can go into Settings > Privacy & Security, scroll to Permissions, click Settings next to Location, click ‘Block new requests’ and save changes. Per site allow/block/ask can still be configured.
