OK that’s better than what I’ve seen. Notepadqq I think was 2.4gb and I said no to that one. But again I don’t run Ubuntu.

The snap store is some proprietary store Canonical runs, and snaps are friggin huge in size. I don’t really know though as I don’t use Ubuntu anymore

Speed Queen is still making dumb albeit electronic models. Bit pricey but solid. Or get yourself an old one off Craigslist and call someone to refurb it. Those will often outlast anything else.

yeah I’ve got both. The 3 won’t play the really hi red movies without down sampling from the server

A 4B is kind of the minimum for newer Librelec versions. Still cheap and fanless with a good heat sink case. I’ve learned recently about CEC and it works on my old Panasonic with Viera but I keep a little Bluetooth keyboard around too.

It is kinda shocking how well really old junk runs under Linux vs Windows’s treatment of it.

Just started messing with this last night and can’t find wjhere Jellyfin ends up after installing it.

Yeah just walk through Costco and see the massive varieties of ready to eat stuff. But a ton of people here just eat out all the time too.

Home cooking. It is super easy and about 100x healthier. Don’t know how? Get the America’s Test Kitchen Best Skillet Recipes book. Lots of super easy things in there. Once you get in the habit you really only have to do it 3-4 times a week, and there are lots of frozen meals.

Jellyfin is working pretty well for TV too, with the Schedules Direct feed. Just doesn’t get the naming right.

Oh this is the Shut Up and Eat Your Snowshoes guy. I found a copy of that when I was a kid, thought it was kinda funny. God knows what I would think now.

Option 2 is not long for this world

No, POE. Just the round black ones, I forget the model.

The only gotcha I can think of is the 4k bandwidth, better make sure you can handle more than one camera on your network.

Not parent, but Zoneminder locally with the zmninja app works pretty well. VPN allows remote access, so it is slightly complicated but not too bad.

Reolink and Zoneminder has been working fine. Put the cameras in a vlan, block their access except to the ZM server, you can use any IP camera.
