I run k3s on my bare metal cluster and for a lab I think it is excellent. Gets the cluster up and running easily so you can learn about actual Kubernetes stuff.
Personally I run it on fedora coreos, but I would not recommend that for everyone. I would just use whatever distri you like. All the usual suspects will work perfectly.
That is absolutely true yes, I’m not sure you can even preview what you have downloaded in Pinchflat.
We use Jellyfin/Kodi for playback generally
I tried it alongside Pinchflat and ended up settling on Pinchflat.
Why? I’m not going to say TA is bad, it worked well, but Pinchflat’s logic works better for me. Also, I was using TA with an existing Elastic search cluster. When I switched my logs to Loki/Garage I decided not to keep the ES cluster around just for TA.
Just use switches and APs and I’m happy. Had 2 generations of AP and will eventually upgrade to the current ones, but am not in a rush.
I have no desire to expand beyond that, but the networking gear works well.
Mine is a single garage that is a mixture of workshop and gym. Squat rack at one end, cabinets down one wall and bench down the other. There is also a bike work stand too, but the bikes are all stored elsewhere.
In the middle is a massive pile of empty boxes, because it is a garage and my wife keeps dumping them there.
2 problems this week
Accidentally had 2 Jellyfin pods trying to write to SQLite together and corrupted the DB. Not really anyway to fix it so just killed it and rebuilt the library.
Also, my son’s Minecraft server got corrupted. Longhorn backup to the rescue 🛟
We have both.
Kodi use Jellyfin for its media library and Kodi is excellent for a lot of the TV we watch. catch Up TV has replaced the decoder for watching terrestrial TV.
One thing that sucks in Kodi though is Arte (a franco-german channel that is a leans towards “intellectual”). For that, the LG WebOS app is much better than the Kodi add-on. Other than that 1 app, we could happily plug Kodi into digital signage panel if they weren’t stupidly expensive.
I cannot fathom why, but people do not seem capable of understanding resolution, screen size and viewing distance as important factors that interplay with each other.
8k is absolutely pointless on a 49" TV that is several metres away. However, I will take 4k over 1080 on even a 24" computer screen every time.
That is just me though, your preferences and vision may be different to mine. Same with the monitors. You like multiple screens, I prefer a single larger screen.
My company announced RTO the same day Amazon did. The Union is up in arms, but honestly the powers that be are handling it pretty well. My boss is happily going to the office for a couple of days a week. She’s a million miles from enforcing it on us though. Exceptions are already in place for people like me (3 hour TGV ride from the nearest office) and even a few people who just said “I really don’t want to”.
I’m sure a few people will leave and not be replaced, but perhaps they were just dead weight anyway. I couple that I know about definitely are.

We need less polarisation. The far left and far right are both wrong because the world is a complex place full of nuance.
Personally I consider myself left of centre, but I also find policies that are absolutely core to the left abhorrent. That means I have voted centre right in the past, or centre depending on the situation.
What is absolutely certain is this kid did not deserve to die and the people that did it should JUSTLY face the full force of the law.
