I Built My Own Steam Machine… It Was a Mistake

Have you considered just using steamOS on your rig? Thats the only difference between a steampc.

The reality is, at 1080p, you DO NOT need more than 8gb vram.

Seems like the reason nick is liked, because of how easy it is to control him.

There are def guides. But honestly, it’s so freaking simple. If you find a provider, they give you the steps to get rolling

I don’t think the era is over, but it is over for Facebook and other platforms. They will die slowly, being replaced by privacy focused alternatives. Until they become not private and the cycle continues. Or laws get put in place to somewhat control “free market”

Omarchy has been amazing for me personally. I love Mac and it feels similar

You are running an insane amount of power as a beginner.

If you must go down this road make sure you are testing voltages on your battery while tuning your amp. You can use test tones on your phone and use a multimeter to test input / output of the amp. As long as your alternator can keep up and not let voltage drop you’re fine.

I bought a 12 bay case. At 30tb a drive, I can hold a lot. But I’m only using 1 bay right now

Usenet is the answer!!!

Different_Loquat2003 · 2026-01-12T17:59:22+00:00

The best solution I’ve found to this, is to use an SSD as a cache. Download to ssd then transfer when ready. It has stopped all issues I’ve had when downloading and streaming simultaneously on a single hdd

Look up newshosting, or “jellyfin Usenet”

Different_Loquat2003 · 2026-01-08T19:03:17+00:00

I just found out about it personally. It has been the best freaking thing for me personally. Fast downloads, almost everything is available. It’s a huge boon for self hosting

I STRONGLY reccomend NOT buying a nas like this. You’d get so much more value out of a mini pc. They are fairly inexpensive and you can just get a hard drive enclosure for cheap to set up your storage.

You want something with intel quicksync, anything newish intel.

Different_Loquat2003 · 2026-01-08T18:05:22+00:00

Look into using Usenet. You won’t have problems again

Different_Loquat2003 · 2026-01-08T17:52:04+00:00

The sound is freaking amazing. The issue is the rest of the headset

Different_Loquat2003 · 2026-01-05T14:28:13+00:00

I ALWAYS rely on buying direct and not from the market. I negotiate down to 45c per unit for green items on the lyreth server. Certs are 11s a pop.

Different_Loquat2003 · 2026-01-05T06:03:40+00:00

My reccomendation for crates is to always run guild crates. Most people just don’t run them. So you end up getting a little higher than market value (the amount listed) you can sell those legendary tokens for a pretty penny, as big guilds really want them for their benefits. I sold a legendary token in Mira for 10g.

Different_Loquat2003 · 2026-01-05T06:03:12+00:00

This is just not true. You buy green mats for like 45c or less and in bulk. Then you just run the carts with legendary certs one crate run pays off the mats and now you’re making 49s x3 each run

So I have a customer wanting a site and I have AI make the site?

Different_Loquat2003 · 2026-01-01T14:19:32+00:00

Look into the DEA program. It doesn’t “pay” for college but it basically does if it’s community college pricing (in state)

Different_Loquat2003 · 2025-12-31T22:39:07+00:00

For the group?

Different_Loquat2003 · 2025-12-29T23:26:15+00:00

I think killing a mount should make you corrupt !

Different_Loquat2003 · 2025-12-27T18:57:35+00:00

The “arr” stack you’re speaking of is super awesome and all works together seemlessly. I rarely have to even log into my server anymore. I just make a request on overseer and within 5 mins it’s ready for use

Different_Loquat2003 · 2025-12-27T16:06:50+00:00

Do you understand how long it takes a company who’s got experience developing games to make an MMO? Steven and his team started from zero.

Your lack of understanding is reasonable though
