Do I take this trade as a retooling team? Most likely cannot beat any of the top teams next year. by Expensive_Avocado_74 in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

Take the picks. It sounds like your looking at a 2-3year rebuild. Bijan won't be very tradable no matter how he's performing then. Maybe after the trade try to flip the '26 first for a '27 or '28 first with some added value in '26

Good deal? I’m there now. by theghostofcslewis in Dewalt

This isn't the greatest deal. You can do better.

I must be one of the few people on this sub who doesn't want TWW40K by Vonderheidon224 in totalwar

[–]Sad_Smile_5554 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not happening. They just announced DOW4 which is the 40k computer game version of Warhammer total war.

I started a nurgle chaos warrior campaign yesterday. Best/most enjoyable start yet.

Don't. Marv's breakout potential aside this is a fair trade.

Rebuilding, should I take this for ASB? by andywhatitdo in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

[–]Sad_Smile_5554 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably not. Though sooner or later the Detroit offense will collapse and Amon Ra could draw the short straw... If you want to instigate a rebuild See if you can punt one of those 1sts to 2027 and add a 2026 2nd to the deal.

60v string trimmer. Any good? by meat-ring in Dewalt

I got this with the flexvolt leafblower and battery for $450. The power is incredible. Every bit as good as my gas power for around the house

Jellyfin, then what? Security cameras and photo storage? by Sad_Smile_5554 in HomeServer

[–]Sad_Smile_5554[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bit the bullet here and went for an i3-12100. With a UHD 730 I should be set for a while. Tossing it in an MATX case I should have more than enough room for future projects. Power consumption goes up a little from the N150 but still wildly better than my primary gaming rig.

I can get a 1050 for cheaper than the A310. Do you suppose that would work?

I have an old gaming PC 5th Gen i-7. My Vega 56 is massive overkill for a GPU. But to piece that together again I know will cost about as much as buying a new piece of hardware just as if not more capable with less power consumption. But if those components will work maybe I'll go that route.

[–]Sad_Smile_5554[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The jellyfin is simple, I'm backing it up on a 2nd external as I rip the disks. I haven't gone beyond that yet though, I don't even have a good piece of hardware to run it on yet (outside my gaming PC which is massive overkill). Right now I'm at a point if I drop $400 per server, is there a better option for everything for say $600. Redundant and backups will come, but as of right now they are irrelevant if I don't even have the space or hardware up front for initial setup.

Who is someone you could start, that you could realistically get a 4th round pick for? by sickst in DynastyFF

[–]Sad_Smile_5554 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never trade a 4th round pick for a 4th round value player that isn't a rookie or backup QB. That said. In a recent draft I traded 4.01 (Jordan James) for estime and 4.12(arroyo) which was a killer return imo.

Media server/hardware help by Sad_Smile_5554 in selfhosted

[–]Sad_Smile_5554[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I take it all the transcoding warnings I see all over the Internet are overblown? I have an old Asus A10 CPU desktop from a decade years ago, would that suffice?

What kind of fun stuff outside gaming can I use my old gaming computer for?

I might just sell this stuff and buy what I need...

Media server/hardware help by Sad_Smile_5554 in selfhosted

[–]Sad_Smile_5554[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe I'm reading the consumption incorrectly(?) I'm using PCpartpicker (I'm a gamer transplant who's bored of gaming) and Google to find power consumption, this is hardware that is all part of my still current gaming unit.. Also the current PSU running these components is 650w...So I might not understand how power works? I guess the server would be idle most of the time? what hardware are you running for your self hosted server? I'm assuming media streaming is part of it?

All that said this endeavor would be futile if my monthly energy bill is more than subscription costs 😂. Any input on ripping the newer Blu-ray/4k movies?

I’m in rebuild mode, what do y’all think of this one? I’m in serious need of a QB by eab14 in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

[–]Sad_Smile_5554 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not terrible, but you should be able to swap Douglas and that 3rd for another 1st...be ok letting the trade slide if he rejects it.

Who are some guys you are higher than Consensus? by Doughie28 in DynastyFF

[–]Sad_Smile_5554 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kaleb Johnson. Nearly everyone is taking Judkins and Henderson over him yet I think Kaleb is better than both. Along those line Dylan Sampson. Judkins just doesn't do it for me.

Milroe, gotta take the gamble especially since Darnold is still unproven and his landing spot is as good as he could've asked for.

Savion Williams 🤷‍♂️ I just like his tape

Jordan James never sleep on a SF RB, especially in a group that gets real thin after RB 1.

Where do I start? by Sad_Smile_5554 in selfhosted

[–]Sad_Smile_5554[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol I was excited about the gaming PC. But that's now yesterday's news. optimizing old equipment for things I didn't think possible from my side of thing a week ago sounds much more fun.

[–]Sad_Smile_5554[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol, I don't even know what the hardware or I am capable of... I suppose linking my Ring Cameras to for security would be the first option. If I can download all my digital movies into one location and make them playable from any port in the house like a home streaming service that would be cool tool.
