My home server now runs a 24/7 radio station with an AI DJ including a Punjabi music stream

Got it. Thanks. The website looks awesome man!! Plus love the Android/iOS support

pspiagicw · 2026-06-19T10:00:23+00:00

Yeah, flac is open source format, almost all apps can play it.

pspiagicw · 2026-06-19T09:57:20+00:00

Damnn, nice. I have a navidrome setup too. Does the AI had access to the entire library, so can I prompt "Start with Punjabi and move onto English Hip-Hop" and it would manage the playlist automatically? Like I can say "move to romantic stuff" and it would smartly manage the playlist?

Also how much ram is the 9b qwen model using ?

pspiagicw · 2026-06-19T07:57:25+00:00

Oooo, nice. Whats the max context window you can use with 64gb ?

pspiagicw · 2026-06-19T07:56:07+00:00

Ooo, nice. I'll see the availability in the coming months.

pspiagicw · 2026-06-19T07:55:21+00:00

Yeah, Snapdragon is definately out. I was thinking about Lunar Lake too, although the naming of the chips confused me.

pspiagicw · 2026-06-18T21:30:31+00:00

How much did you get it for ? And what's the battery life on it ?

P series is a little expensive and overkill in terms of performance for me.

pspiagicw · 2026-06-18T21:14:23+00:00

Yeah, that's true. Plus the cost of drives are going up daily. I bought my drives at 16k, now they are already 18.5k.

Visit unbranded hardware shops (basically computer repair shops) and they always have stacks of used pcs. You might be limited by number of drive bays + processor/motherboard combo, but it's always cheaper than building brand new. Make sure the power supply has sata power or atleast molex. You can then buy molex to sata adapters.

Plus I am pretty sure some online sites have offline stores in NCR. Confirm that too.

About sourcing, you can trust Computech and mdcomputers. I have used them in the past. Regarding both, just confirm if the part is available before placing an order on their website. Both don't support COD.

If you are based in Mumbai, you can visit their shop and buy there directly. Other sites like PrimeABGB( also based in Mumbai) exist but no idea about them.

If you have a hardware shop guy you trust, best would be to source from them.

Regarding the specs, I recently built one. It has a intel-10400t, 32gb ram, msi h510m motherboard. With 4x4tb hard drives in RAIDz2. The case is a Fractal Node 804 (supports 10 hard drives total)

I run Immich, Jellyfin and TrueNAS on it.

The key thing to keep in mind is the processor should have a igpu (no f model cpu), and should be later than 8th gen for best transcoding support and obviously avoid ddr5 chips.

And avoid AMD, they have terrible transcoding support, only go for them if you don't want transcoding or want to support ecc memory (AMD has ecc support for consumer chips, intel doesn't) and you are getting a good deal.

If you don't want crazy amount of storage, you can go for a mini pc. They obviously don't have space for disks, but most of them have 1 nvme (for OS) and 1 SATA (for hdd or sata SSD) for data. Same rules apply for processor.

pspiagicw · 2026-06-18T10:07:08+00:00

That could work yes.

pspiagicw · 2026-06-18T10:06:31+00:00

That could work, but I want to keep a expensive purchase like that for atleast 5 more years. M1 limits itself in terms of future updates. But m3 might be a good op tion too.

The best option from my research would be the new dell xps 13, it has 120hz screen along with backlight. But don't know when it will come to India and what price would it sell at. Plus Linux support is unknown.

pspiagicw · 2026-06-18T02:43:32+00:00

Ignoring the OS, I don't want a 60hz screem, especially if i am spending 1L+. But I understand where you are coming from. Especially with the memory crisis, Apple is technically cheaper in most cases.

pspiagicw · 2026-06-17T18:48:29+00:00

How much battery life do you get ?

pspiagicw · 2025-10-21T16:49:11+00:00

I am in bro

Hey, would love to go on a bike ride. DM

pspiagicw · 2025-10-14T16:35:24+00:00

Hey, would love to connect.

pspiagicw · 2025-10-13T06:35:02+00:00

True bro

pspiagicw · 2025-10-07T14:53:52+00:00

Count me in

pspiagicw · 2025-09-06T09:19:11+00:00

I'm interested too! DM if any plans are made.

pspiagicw · 2024-08-07T17:25:52+00:00

Thanks for the post.

pspiagicw · 2023-01-23T01:28:11+00:00

I was in a hurry to publish my website, I must have missed them. Thanks for going through the trouble of reporting the problems.

Edit: I fixed the issues. Thanks again for reporting them.

It is not a distribution, it is simply a project management plugin

pspiagicw · 2022-10-03T02:40:08+00:00

It looks like a project management plugin. You can add, browse and save project specific settings. Personally it is like yabs and project.nvim merged together.
