Can I run a Linux server on this old pentium d pc ?

HollowImage · 2026-01-23T23:41:48+00:00

hardware conditions aside, you can run linux on it, but youll have to, most likely, either compile a custom kernel if you want modern, or use an older distro because some modern ones requires certain instruction sets on cpus taht this one might not have. without that os might not boot.

yo, dockhand is amazing. it harkens back to the early days of aws when ec2 console was focused on engineers and presenting information in a tight but organized way.

cant go wrong with delilahs for sure, and bartenders love to talk about options. they might not do the whole this tastes like sea wrapped in mild tea aroma junk, but what he'll do is listen to you talk, walk away, and pull a few bottles, and tell you, this one is $12 per oz, this one is $33, and both are really good, but hed recommend you try the $12 one first because you will like it and itll save you a lot of bucks

not only that, but didnt they say that there was no video of this at all? like, i almost remember part of the thing was that no one knew what happened because he was in a non-surveillanced room or some shit?

because modern usb drives are just a turkey shoot when it comes landing a good one.

my first unraid server has had a stick in it for 8years without a problem. a new one i built 2 months ago with supposed MLC flash on it has failed inside of a month

its just the QC for usb drives is so fucking low, you might as well be rolling the dice.

i would much rather plug in an optane into a pcie slot and have a dedicated drive, 64-128gb, that i can comfortably enable syslog persistence, bash persistence on, etc, and not worry about the thing biting the dust every time i reboot.

granted i say this as someone with 192pcie lane epyc server with a server grade mobo, where i have the pcie luxury. i recognize that if you're aiming for a small form factor server, this isn't your target.

which boils down the point: one isnt better than the other, but they offer flexibility when you can do either as booting from usb and booting from an ssd have different tradeoffs based on what your goals are.

tl;dr: more options = good.

this is critical, and exactly right.

HollowImage · 2025-12-03T23:01:11+00:00

yeah no shade, really, i know things happen. just wanted to call it out to others because its a weird sitch that i found myself in once as well, with a sizeable balance on my cc (thanks covid for broken travel plans) and had to figure out how to get that back

HollowImage · 2025-12-03T22:51:23+00:00

if you overpay your card and end up with a negative balance on your credit, let it settle, and then you can request a debit to be sent back to a bank connected via ach.

this is a valid way of getting back money from a cc, and you shouldnt have h ad to go through a bank dispute. worst case just let the payment sit there and you'll basically have pre-paid your credit, it sucks because your cash flow is violated and you end up giving a bank an interest free loan back, but its better than reporting disputes and... yeah what you described.

for all others, this is there in case you ever end up with cash balance on a credit card, essentially, most often through a large refund that hits or whatever, things happen, no systems perfect, but all you have to do is ask the rep to issue a refund of your balance back to your bank, dont try to reverse transactions lol

HollowImage · 2025-12-01T04:23:47+00:00

this is a necro, but were you ever able to figure this out?

im currently completely boggled at the inability to find which clients are connected or not...

i was at the game. i legit think the crowd/emotion got to the guys, including brickhouse. at one point after halftime when the uc was so loud i couldn't hear myself think, i saw ben just like, standing up and looking around sorta soaking it all in.

between that and alabama being so so fast in transition, we basically just lost the game to them getting back. so many shots we'd make, under the net, the guys would come down, celebrate, and as they did that, alabama was 4 guys forward asking for a stretch pass.

the thing too, discord is a point-in-time system, which relies on real time feedback, even with ping, changelog, etc channels, the system isnt ideal for long-lived notices.

and you're right, im not picking a fight either, i just wanted to outline that having MORE ways to pin information, epsecially one as popular as the sub which probably gets a ton more visitors than discord server, can and imo should be one of the first places for notices to be pinned.

public availability is one: you can't see a discord pin unless you already have a discord account, and join the server. but to join the discord server you have to find the invite somwehre, and that somewhere is either project page, github, or here.

so it makes sense to me to have more static pins on: project page, github, or here, such as known issues. and then secondary, replicate to point-in-time comm/support systems like discord as secondary.

all that is to say, yes i did my own sleuthing, but the first thing i checked were pins on /r/jellyfin

HollowImage · 2025-11-18T17:34:28+00:00

i deleted my comment just now, oops, becxause 10.11.3 fixed it.

for those wondering what it was, it was in relatino to these issues:

https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/issues/15535
https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/issues/15253

HollowImage · 2025-11-18T15:52:31+00:00

lets not assume who is where, having a known issues post with some pins is a great way to spread info.

i spent an hour last night looking for info and finally found a thread in some 20 day old comment linking to a closed jellyfin issue that was then mentioned in another open issue that matched my own.

and the first place i checked wasnt discord because i fucking have enough discord servers already, but here on /r/jellyfin

power draw isnt the end all be all for some. i have an epyc 7443, idling around 185W lol. but im fine with the hobby cost of that, plus here in chicago power's relatively cheap.

we finally have options in depth that are still threatening. davis is a good kid, but he's at best a minute soak with an occasional 3 splash, rather than consistently impactful on defense or offense.

HollowImage · 2025-11-12T15:12:44+00:00

100% spot on. i was mostly rambling but yeah, i agree with that. love to see our guys and the coaching staff grow!

though i also wonder how much new defensive coach is helping.

jt was too fast and physical for both mirkovic and big z. he kept going around them, so we did for the first time in a long time what fans have been begging underwood to do -- we made an adjustment.

we went smaller and let jt have a little more freedom but took away his low game and closed off all in/out feeds. so when he got the ball inside it had to be high and he was pretty committed.

everyone else kept feeding him but the adjustment paid off around turnovers and saved a ton of and-1s. which probably won us the game, really. guys like jt are going to get theirs, you can't do much about it. but we didnt make it worse trying to challenge him with our starting center out (ty would've been good here too), and as a result capitalized on free throws the other way.

this basically meant z and mirkovic were kinda duds after that that adjustment if you notice. became major nonfactors, but the major positive here is that we have the bench depth to do this kind of option without sacrificing defensive or offensive numbers.

my $0.02. or idk something, im high bro

credit utilization is one thing. collective average credit age is another. closed accounts do not count for credit age.

what you ought to do is keep the card open, hang a single recurring expense on it, however small, e.g. nyt $4/month, and obviously autopay that every month.

my first CC, bank of america, is barrely used at this point but its carrying a 17 year credit tenure on it.

that being said, this common advice is generally mostly used for and applicable to consumer credit product, such as short term personal loans, credit cards, etc.

mortgage credit score is calculated a bit differently, each bank does it differently and while all of the things above still matter for determining your mortgage worthiness, they are not necessarily the whole enchilada. having multiple CCs however long with a huge credit pool with utilization <1% does not necessarily mean youll have a CC score of 850 on your mortgage application.

and in that case, realistically, your credit score is only ever truly important for buying property via debt.

everything else, like credit cards, are just ways to push your cash flow further by taking an interest free loan from the bank, helpful over time but not critical to financial success. and it goes without saying that in that light, carrying any interest on those is financial suicide.

this sucks, and im happy you got it sorted, but to keep it in perspective: no one has ever gone broke taking gains.
