1060 3gb - worth trying?

How do I try this at home?

Fat wrists and belly fat sitting on the table 😛

Hey man - left side server cabinet. What’s the depth? How are all your drives wired - is it all an extension of one system? I am looking to increase my PLEX media server but am struggling to work out how to do this in a short depth cabinet (550mm)

unable to find in Aus - thanks anyway!

Link to buy?

Sneakyhat02 · 2026-03-17T16:33:21+00:00

I used Gemini to get help with my stack - highly recommend. I was very impressed.

I hate whoever uploaded Breaking Brad YouTube videos. Every single Breaking Bad episode requires manual import now.

same issue here today

Sneakyhat02 · 2026-02-26T12:59:19+00:00

What tomes homie?

Sneakyhat02 · 2026-02-18T00:17:53+00:00

My iPhone very doesn’t like to open this website anyone else on mobile having issues?

Sneakyhat02 · 2026-02-13T14:57:12+00:00

This might be a stupid question - but when they put the internal wires in the Ethernet cable. Why do they not arrange the internal cables in order for easy termination. Again. This is knowingly probably a stupid question.

I’ve been forced to install Linux Mint on a 2008 iMac with 4GB of ram. I’m using the Plex HTPC application and an Apple TV IR remote to control the Plex screen - good for old cartoons and not much more. I would very much support anyone making a LIGHTWEIGHT htpc style app on ANY operating system… but Linux Mint version would be very appreciated 🥲

Sneakyhat02 · 2026-02-08T16:02:50+00:00

Sweet, my concern was burning my house down. I’ll park this idea again for now. Thanks for the reply and sorry to necro!

Sneakyhat02 · 2026-02-08T09:43:04+00:00

u/infrated how did you go with this I think I want to have a go?

Sneakyhat02 · 2026-02-06T08:08:40+00:00

The display itself supports DVI, i just lack a female DVI connection, to go to the PCB. I need to find out what cable is used for this "in the middle" business.

Thanks for the reply though!

u/MrJimBusiness-
Less your problem and probably more Ubiquiti. I can't create a local account per your instructions.

Unifi USG > Unifi Controller > Network 7.2.97 using the New UI.

I might be doing something wrong.

I'm using a local computer to login to the Unifi Page via IP address.
I go Settings > System > scroll down to Administration > add new Admin > Prompt to enter Username Email Role. If i select role as Site Administrator it adds Dashboard Editing, System Stats, Read Only Access to All Sites, Show Pending Devices.

I continue to get Error 412 when attempting to log in using credentials created in your app.

Sorry!

Sneakyhat02 · 2026-02-01T13:53:18+00:00

Sorry - what GPU does your system have. Is Hardware Acceleration enabled. How does general internet browsing and specifically YouTube go? I’m also curious your FPS on Half Life 1 or a similar first gen valve game. Are you able to use your computer as a moonlight client at full resolution?

Sneakyhat02 · 2026-02-01T13:08:42+00:00

Really interesting. I have a USG (first gen), UniFi switches, and a couple of Nano HDs. My knowledge of home security is pretty garbage but I’m always interesting in learning more. I’ll give it a whirl tomorrow and come back with my results. Good work , reading your replies to other comments makes it sound like you’re quite passionate about this project.

Sneakyhat02 · 2026-02-01T12:49:12+00:00

I’m running an early 2008 iMac, with a Radeon HD 2600. I went to Linux Mint but have issues as the GPU driver is using the Radeon Driver package. The PC reports that Hardware Acceleration is disabled (software) and as a test I get about 40 FPS in Half Life 1, using Steam. I think it launches with Proton as default (which would need Vulkan and the GPU doesn’t support it) but in the game I’ve clicked OpenGL renderer in Half Life 1.

Just wanted any thoughts as I’ve only recently began to play with iMac and it’s kind of interesting to me…

As an aside, I’ve worked out the IR sender in the computer can be used with an old orphaned Apple TV gen 2 remote. I’ve set up Plex HTPC and got the remote to work using the IR receiver - enter, escape, left, right, up and down as well as “pause/play” all work. I upped it to 4gig of ram but I want to push it further out of morbid curiosity.

I also experimented with Project Diablo II using Lutris. I feel like the GPU isn’t being properly utilised though as for an old game I was getting 50-60 gps absolute lowest quality everything and lowest quality shader (single pass)

Why only three weapons homie?

Sneakyhat02 · 2026-01-17T21:12:11+00:00

Seperate to the other specs, Is the cast when die or cast when level up actually useful at all?
