Ran the stack manually for decades, but spam makes it harder.

Run mailinabox now, it takes care of everything pretty well.

Beautiful, but:

Fuck that, she was fuck-off hot in Pic s3.

Because Nvidia wrote an absolute fuck-ton of their Cuda stack to make it far more performant for many common tasks out of the box.

Early opencl implementations absolutely sucked.

Last week got my new epyc server with GPU running ollama and all the trimmings.

This week linked my 2 home bases with wire guard, all the subnets mesh and the wifi isolation is solid. Performance is surprisingly good considering they’re 9 time zones apart on different hemispheres.

Migrating plex to jellyfin to get hw accel working.

Also trying to get my second base multiple statics and 10gb if possible, rural fiber in Europe is unbelievably aweome, hope to drop Comcast business back home if it works.

Got someone to work with on a new company, so that’s part of this, though my day job relies on this too.

Doing that switch soon.

Plex doesn’t do hw accel well, which kind of defeats the purpose.

Same, except the irc, I have a python thing to interface.

Stealing your idea, that sounds awesome.

That’s not something they natively support, it’s hard links or a copy.

Google is pushing av1 because of patents, but 266 is just plain better tech, even if it’s harder to encode.

This same shit happened with 265 and vp9, and before that, and before that with vorbis/opus/aac.

They’ll come back because it’s a standard, and has higher quality.

Maybe this is the one time somehow av1 wins out on patents, but I’m encoding av1 and I’m really not impressed, it’s literally just dressed up hevc, maybe a 10% improvement max.

I’ve seen vvc and it’s really flexible, it shifts gears on a dime between high motion and deep detail, which is basically what your brain sees most, while av1 is actually kind of worse than hevc at that to me, it’s sluggish at the shifts, even if it is better overall.

Yeah, using the a750 the same.

Can’t wait for next Gen arc with vvc (x266) support.

Intel has excellent transcode, even in their igpus.

I use an arc750 specifically for transcode, av1 runs at ludicrous speeds, but don’t do an Nvidia, they kind of suck because they dont support vaapi, only nvenc/nvdec and vdpau.

Yeah, the ryzens are great too.

Full amd will treat you well, I’m running dual xeons and a Radeon pro with an arc 770 just for av1 encode right now.

Next round going full epyc.

Amd knocks Nvidia into a hat on Linux, the drivers are just too incredible.

With the exception of AI, where Nvidia is just plain the gold standard.

Intel is fine, it has exceptional video encoding and works.

Core i3 is fine, celeron can route, but you don’t have as much headroom, or room for firewall rules, etc. Recommend Intel x520 or mellanox cx3 or newer, though the cx2 is perfectly fine.

The bs about bsd being slower is maybe 15 years old at best?

Bsd is a monster for routing.

Run 25gbe routing, still can get by on your 4 core, but I throw some serious xeons at it anyway.

Meh, I like my udm.

I use some of the features, but mostly it just works, and it’s debian under the hood so I just ssh in and unfuck whatever needs unfucking.

It’s vastly closer to a hand-built setup than anything else, and you can spend less time worrying about security.

Ollama, llama3.2, deepcode and a bunch of others.

Using a GPU but man they’re picky, they mostly want Nvidia gpus.

Do NOT be afraid to run on the cpu. It’s slow, but for 1 user it’s actually mostly fine.

Not much, I have services that run both externally and only over wg.

Only issue with wg is sometimes I have to shut it off for things like multicastdns, or otherwise that try to look around the network or wifi.

Iirc replicators require exotic matter arrays, so no, they need to be constructed, at least anything more complex than a household replicator.

Efficiency? Worse. Power? Way more.

Big thing is going from usb 3.0 or really weak microsd to sata ssd or especially m.2 nvme.

Pi4 has a72s which are weak, like clock for clock on par with sandylake or even nehalem, and they aren’t clocked near as high.

Pi5 is closer to broadwell, maybe Sky-lake, which is starting to hit tolerable performance.
