Wow, I can't believe this is a thing. Wasn't the last hurd release like 10 years ago?

I use borg (borgmatic) to back up home server to home nas. The only major disadvantage of borg is that it requires running borg also on the receiving end, so it doesn't work with a lot of cloud storage providers like S3.
Restic can work with most everything as a backup target.
i have a lifetime plex pass, but I'd consider moving to jellyfin when their closed-captioning support reaches parity with plex. i regularly spin up a jellyfin container to try it out, but i still run into issues. And jellyfin's android apps are mediocre (in particular android auto support), especially for music compared to plexamp
there is an official docker container to run a bridge, which is probably the easiest option. no idea if it supports pi/arm though.
.... that you know of.
I have crowdsec running on my caddy reverse proxy for my home server and it's logging and blocking at least 10-20 hostile IP addresses trying to do port scans/other automated script hacks every day.
Home assistant in a podman container uses only about 400mb memory and .05% of cpu on my home server.
Put Linux on your mini PC and you can run dozens of services on it without it breaking a sweat.
Can recommend the Linuxserver.io version -- I found it easier in podman to implement nvidia hardware decoding with the linuxserver.io version than with the official image.
Fremont, rhymes with Three Want.
Half-Life 3 Confirmed
I’d ditch the HTPC, and go for an Android based media player
This is the way. Especially given the number of streaming services that work much better as an android app than in a browser.
Used to run an HTPC in the living room (linux, ran kodi-standalone). Now replaced with a back-end server in the basement (serving plex and mythtv) and a googleTV chromecast running plex and kodi and various subscription apps attached to the TV

Right now i have my steam deck in a dock hooked up to the tv along with a couple cheap bluetooth controllers. A tiny silent PC capable of true 1080p instead of upscaled 720p would be attractive. Sure I could build a SFFPC that could easily outperform the steam machine (but why? as my TV can only do 1080p/60fps), but I doubt I could build something as nice for a similar price.
