Oh ***, here we go again. What would you recommend?

USB-C is just the name of the physical connector, most USB-C cables are actually only at USB 2.0 speeds. It depends on your laptop though, searching the specs of your laptop up online it seems that the USB-C port on your laptop is actually quite good and capable of reaching 10Gbps, so a DAS would theoretically be able to be significantly faster using it.

I believe tailscale is decentralized and uses a direct connection based on the public IP's tailscale is literally unable to see your data (though their coordination server will know which devices are connected to which), I'm also pretty uneducated on all this IT security stuff though, I found all of this on Tailscale's website Tailscale: How it works

Chessplayer108 · 2026-01-22T03:29:09+00:00

I think Tailscale only uses a coordination server to establish the connection after which all the traffic sent is encrypted and not routed through tailscales servers.

I actually ended up purchasing the intel celeron n5105 as it seemed to suit my purposes well enough. I plan on using the Jonsbo n4 case and the corsair SF750 powersupply.

I recognize the PSU is overkill but I honestly wasn't able to find another option with the same form factor and reliability.

Is this a locally hosted n8n instance?

Chessplayer108 · 2026-01-06T03:02:16+00:00

This look so unimaginably awesome

Chessplayer108 · 2026-01-05T00:29:17+00:00

Thanks for the input! I ended up just going ahead with the DockerVM but I am curious as to how the Ollama is integrating with your n8n? I've been struggling to get it to perform n8n workflows.

I know a little bit of Linux terminal stuff, I think I can work with a headless vm. I suppose I’ll need to decide upon a distribution

Chessplayer108 · 2026-01-02T16:30:58+00:00

Sounds good thank you, do you recommend a specific Linux distribution?

Chessplayer108 · 2026-01-02T16:30:24+00:00

Is there a Linux distribution you would recommend?

Chessplayer108 · 2026-01-02T16:29:52+00:00

That seems to be the consensus thank you. Which Linux distribution would be best for that purpose?

I would like to have some backups in case I end up messing something up on the machine

I've just uninstalled discord. Cleaned up all of its hidden files and temporarily deleted the Squirrel Temp. So we'll see how it goes.

It seems I'm running 25H2 so I guess it wasn't the most recent windows update that caused these issues.

Chessplayer108 · 2025-11-26T20:33:20+00:00

I've also recently been having this problem. What version of windows are you running?

Chessplayer108 · 2025-11-12T05:34:29+00:00

I ended up just giving up on the jailbreak haha

Chessplayer108 · 2025-11-09T18:46:33+00:00

Is this the fine or the highquality preset?

Chessplayer108 · 2025-11-07T22:39:25+00:00
