On the tube in central London, two 20-something women got on the train, one was leading the other on a collar and leash as she crawled.

The one holding the leash sat down on the seat, the leashed one sat on the floor at her feet.

Wow looks soooo delicious. I could spend hours eating that out 😍

Out of curiosity, what hardware are you using?

[–] MSKX@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 1 year ago

Awesome! Thanks for that.

[–] MSKX@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 1 year ago

Thanks, will look that up.

It will be living in the home office pretty close to a monitor, so I'm happy enough to plug it in and use a screen to set everything up. But hopefully once it's up and running, I'll rarely need to use a screen and can check on the apps via a browser on my laptop/tablet/phone.

In any case, I'll check out the VNC option linked above, thanks.

I guess it probably makes sense to start with Raspbian then and see how that goes first.

I've also heard about OSMC, which is media player centric distro. Although given I am not actually using this thing as a front end (at least for now), that might be a waste.

OK, thanks.

Yeah I'd rather not be too reliant on my (limited) command line skills!

Hopefully the Pi4 with 8gb is comfortable enough with a slightly heavier distro.

 

Like many others on here, I've finally had enough of the constant splintering of content into more and more separate services, each offering less value.

Anyway, so I have a new 8gb Pi4b on the way and I want to set up a "download box".

Ideally something fairly automated using NZBs. Years ago I used to use Sickbeard + SABNZBD+ on a small windows box. But I wanted a small, simple, ultra low power fanless box, so I've gone for a Pi4.

I'm aware of the *arr apps, although I haven't used any of them yet. I'm thinking a bunch of the *arr apps + SABNZBD+ and just keep using the Plex instance running on my Netgear NAS as the front end (got the lifetime Plex Pass). So I just need the download apps running in my Pi4 for now.

Question is: what do I put onto my Pi4 as the best base on top of which to build all of this?

Unfortunately I'm a Linux newb, so I want something fairly simple which can run all the apps I need and mount my NAS for storage.

What setup do people think is best for the Pi4?
