No one is going to get a tape measure out
You clearly don’t know Germans. Yes they will. They already do. You’re not allowed to park within 5m of an intersection, which the people in charge of checking and giving tickets will absolutely measure. There are many other instances where distances are involved like this. They already carry a tape measure (or equivalent) for this exact reason. Adding one more case just fits the theme.
It’s the same with other vendors though. I man those that allow you to swap internals without losing warranty. Bought my laptop with just a 16g stick (base price/included), then bought 2x24g for the price one additional 16g module would’ve cost. And now I got a 16g module left over, too.
Or if you have separated your devices into subnets/VLANs. Which becomes more important as your get more hardware that you don’t really trust.
I had blocked the user, might have been before writing my reply. I guess that caused it to fail to the top level, weird. Deleted the comment as it doesn’t make any sense there.

Might want to calculate out what the actual number is those “small” 3% represent. Or how the curve looks over time. how it changed from a mostly flat line to a very clearly and relatively steeply climbing curve.
CachyOS is basically vanilla Arch, from a resource point of view. They have their own repos, but they just mirror the arch repos. The arch wiki fully applies. For the very few special things, there is documentation (basically a few notes on gaming related performance options).
So why use it? Carter it’s trivial to install, and everything you need is preconfigured to just work with sane defaults. Installing it is like Mint or Ubuntu. But it uses optimized repos according to your available CPU instruction set, and optimized proton and wine (their own). Games just work (even more so than they already do generally), and are faster. Programs are faster (where it matters). But you don’t need to do anything for that, it’s just there by default.
They can’t sell this at a loss, or at least it would be incredibly risky. This is (intentionally) “just a PC”. It ships with SteamOS but you can of course install whatever you want, including windows. If it is (much) cheaper than a roughly equivalent normal PC, companies might just start buying them in bulk but obviously not generating the supporting sales needed.
Multiple times a day and many times a day isn’t necessarily the same thing. Also just having a 1-2 hours long timeout might still be a viable option preventing repeated spin ups, but still allowing spin down during longer unused periods.
While probably not worth it for your particular case, it might will be for others reading this. Ideally, one could observe the access patterns for a while a find a suitable timeout setting.
While that is still true, unless you spin them up many times a day, it’s a non-issue. Set your timeout to at least 30 minutes. Most jellyfin servers are not gonna be used fir many hours at night, for example. Or when everyone is at work/school.
These days, power is expensive for have people. If I keep my drives spinning 24/7, it’ll cost me around 150€ per year. If they spin when needed, it’ll cost me whatever percentage they are spinning, so in practice they are on for like 1-3 hours a day. So let’s say 20€ per year.
Tailscale is WireGuard under the hood, if you didn’t know. It’s an overlay network that uses WireGuard to make the actual connections, and has some very clever “stuff” to get the clients actually to connect, even if behind firewalls without needing port forwarding.
Using WireGuard directly basically just changes the app you use, which may or may not help with your issues. But the connecting technology is the exact same.
Valve and therefore Steam is still privately owned, never went public. No share holders demanding things surely is a major factor.
They can literally setup an instance themselves. By the time it is identified as such, the damage is basically done. Just make a new one. Or use one of the many instances not requiring approval. Or fill out the form with ai. They don’t actually need an insane number of accounts for their subterfuge. Having just “some” and keeping them tied to conversational themes/topics seems sufficient?
I assume you mean unsolicited phone calls with this? I haven’t gotten any of those in about a decade, if not more. And those were isolated cases as well. We have laws against that sort of thing. It’s not been a problem for a very very long time (early 2000s or so).
If I’m hosting Stirling myself, I don’t mind it being sent to the server obviously. Being fully open source of course is a big plus.
I’d suggest looking into TeamSpeak, like others have mentioned. Trivial to self host, too.
Edit: to be clear, this would cover the voice call aspect of discord, not the chat channels and other community tools. While it’s can do text chat, it’s more of a side feature rather than core. I didn’t think it does images or video, but it’s been a hot minute.
Who cares what it looks like as long as it works? They want to get 2fa sms in their desktop, I highly doubt “pretty” is high on the requirements…
See my reply in this thread to artyom, I assume that’s what you’re looking for?
but you can do everything without it.
yes but why would you? There’s a reason we use GUIs, especially when new to a field (like virtualization).
You can try to refund anyway, and explain the reason in the text box. Has worked for me in the past. There are actually people reading these as far as I can tell. If it didn’t work, all it cost was life 3 minutes.
