I'd love to but a) I'm not super excited about a big pile of lithium ion batteries in my house, can I get something else? b) EXPENSIVE - I've seen quotes for like $1000/kWh and you have to buy in like 7 or 12 kWh at a time. This was a couple years ago, I don't know that much has changed.

At this point I'm not even mad. You're in the Nazi bar, hanging out with Nazis, acting surprised when they do shitty Nazi things to you. It's been this way for like two years now, take the fucking hint.

Does it have to be audio? A meshtastic radio like what you get from https://www.lilygo.cc/collections/lora-or-gps will pair to a smartphone app (or browser app) and let you text with people who also have a meshtastic radio nearby. If you're in a reasonably dense area there may be several people chatting.

There's a bunch of these xr glasses that are just a display and a gyro, no cameras, no Wi-Fi, no phoning home. I'd go with Viture at this point, XReal has been super shitty about working with third parties, Viture has a Linux sdk. Look for a sale, maybe Black Friday. If you buy a pair for $400 you'll probably be disappointed. $100-200, maybe more reasonable.

record scratch You're probably wondering how I got here
I built a system around a 3U chassis, then tried to stuff a GPU in the box and couldn't close the lid. I got a 4U chassis and rebuilt the system, but I still have the 3U and I'm thinking about filling it back out so I have a failover for Proxmox. Is there a GPU I should consider or just stick with the integrated graphics? I'm currently only using the GPU for Steam remote play using pass-though to a Windows VM, but Jellyfin, Frigate, Immich are on my to-do list.
Cable disc brakes. I kept putting it off but it was riding like shit and didn't feel safe, brake levers nearly contacting the handlebar. I had it in my head that the adjustment was like a 30 minute job. Grabbed Allen wrenches, a couple third hands, screwdrivers. 5 minutes and two Allen bolts later, all done. Topped off the tires with air, quick test ride, meat's back on the menu. No real point to this post, but maybe you've made a quick adjustment or repair that made you happy?

Every time someone mentions an interesting book, I make a note of it. Then a couple times a month, I go back through my notes, pop open a website that shall not be named, snag em all, throw them into calibre-web and sync them down to my ereader. I can get hours of enjoyment from a 1-2MB file, and I love that. Same for older cartridge-format game roms, a N64 rom is generally under 50MB and can keep me busy for days, an NES or GB ROM is usually smaller file size than a book, and some great old DOS games clock in at a handful of MB. What other great bang-for-the-storage-buck stuff is out there that you enjoy?
I'm not seeing much on F-Droid, Play Store is... a mess of bullshit, as always.

When I explain surplus value to people, I use the example of a Starbucks. You're working for $15/hr, selling hundreds of $5 drinks per hour, the surplus value covers the other costs like rent and supplies, but, as most investor-facing documents will lay out, that $15/hr/person is the largest expsense. So, fudging numbers here, you sell 50 drinks at $5 each, that's $250-15-15 for labor and other costs, so $220/hr getting taken from the workers and sent to the owners. So, even if a) I'm wildly off with the numbers, which makes perfect sense because I made them up and b) startup capital is hard to come by if you aren't already rich, the existence of profit from seemingly simple businesses like a standalone coffee shop should be something workers can organize and replicate without much involvement from capital. So, why don't we? Is it that we all have been propagandaized to want the surplus value for ourselves?
I can use Steam Link, or Sunshine (https://github.com/loki-47-6F-64/sunshine), are there other options worth looking at? Windows users also have Parsec and Moonlight/Geforce Experince and probably more.
I realize I'm in the minority here but I use my Switch docked 95% of the time. I'd likely do the same with a Deck. Compared to a PS5 or Xbox, which is going to be more fun?
I've gotten back into my Steam library because of NVidia's GeForce Now service, but there's a handful of games I own but can't play because the publishers won't let NVidia stream them. The most resource intensive game I'm interested in is probably Batman: Arkham City, though I'd also like to use Dolphin to emulate some older Wii/GC games. What I'd like to do is add to my stable of NUCs/NUC-like systems in my networking closet, and stream to my Shield TV. I tried doing this with my fastest NUC, which is still only a Pentium SIlver J5005; while it's at least got QuickSync, my expectations were very low, and I got about what I expected. The encoding process ate up every available CPU cycle, and left nothing to actually run a game. Would something like this: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2021/04/mini-pc-review-the-ryzen-5-pro-2500u-powered-minisforum-um250/ do what I'm looking for? Anything else I should consider in the <$400 price range? Also, AFAIK the only way to stream games to the Sheild from Linux is with Steam. Moonlight, Parsec, etc etc require a Windows PC. Any other streaming software worth looking at?
