Same here. Sansa in the drawer, only brought it as used to be able to hack a ps3 with it before full custom firmware was a thing.

Zune still works but no windows 10 drivers so stuck with old music ๐Ÿ˜•

I'm a big fan of dell wyse machines. Loads on ebay, ex business machines. X86 so decent support, decent dell power supply, on / off button / in cases and low power.

I have wyse 3040 for pihole cost 39.99

I have wyse 5070 with windows 10 for plex and running a Ubuntu 22 server in virtual box, cost 59.99

I have about 2tb credit on a popular site. My TV shows are all auto grabbed by my seedbox and normally seeded above 1 to 1 before I even notice.

100 Meg up and down.

Wait till the EU battery replacement law kicks in. Kind of no need to upgrade then unless you crack the screen.

Difference between my Samsung s9+ and Samsung s21 is minimal.

My setup is two laptops (home and work) but 90% of the time they are just used connected via usb-c to my desk in the front room.

Pull out one wire and swap between work and home setup.

This is what I do. Plex server with storage at home and brother just connects via his app built into his TV. They just text if they want a certain movie or TV show and I add it.

Network speed (lemmy.ca)

Hi, just wondering if someone has any thoughts why transfers over my home network are on the slow side.

I originally thought the network was slow as had a raspberry pi acting as a network share for a while. It's now been removed and writing / switch replaced but b it's not really improved the speed.

I've got 1gb Ports and cableing on my router and switch, 1 x mycloud 5tb, and dell wyse 5070 windows 10 system with a 256gb m2 drive running 24/7.

When using my laptop via wifi to move a files from wyse to mycloud it's about 28meg / samba share.

Yet when I moving find via my mobile using a samba client and again move from wyse to mycloud it's always around 8meg.

It almost seems the file gets transferred by samba to the phone / laptop first then sent to mycloud. Surely samba would get wyse and mycloud taking and transfer direct to each other?

Thanks

I used to play the acorn archemedes demo version of this for hours. Could never afford the full version.

By time I had a full time job the computer was dead.

The ps1 version was terrible, wish I never brought it.
