What you described from your previous workplace sounds amazing, but you must've used phase cancellation too, didn't you?
How is this so much different from what you've used back then?
I checked out Neo Store and I just don't know what to say. It's design is just.... weird...
For example having the categories as vertical text or those huge buttons in the bottom nav bar with disappearing title when selected. Or this "New apps" row that scrolls horizontally. Its funny how this app only made design decisions I'd never thought I'd see in an Android app 🤣 And I'm not sure those design elements follow the Material 3 design guidelines, but I didn't investigate.
Not criticising your preferences though. It's great you like it 😃👍
This is hilarious! What a beautiful, pointless discussion! I love it! 🤣
Because none of those (except hydro and geothermal, but those are both extremely location dependent) will deal with the baseload power generation we need.
Is this the problem though? I mean: The sun is shining somewhere at all times and the wind is blowing somewhere at all times. Energy is being produced. The problem is either storing it (okay, batteries are expensive, I get it) or better: distributing it.
In Germany we have the problem that we are producing a surplus of wind energy in the north but currently we are not able to distribute the energy into the south of Germany which results in needing gas power plants in the south while at the same time shutting down wind generators in the north. This is obviously bad.
Upgrading our grid would solve this problem and would vastly reduce our need for gas energy. This is costly but is far from impossible.
- The total volume of all nuclear waste ever produced by the entire globe is one of the smallest and easiest to manage compared to other forms, filling up less than a football field.
I didn't fact check all of you points, but this at least is utter nonsense. In Germany alone we currently have 130.000 m³ of nuclear waste that are stored in temporary storages. We haven't found a permanent storage yet. 130.000 m³ is equivalent to a 360 m x 360 m square assuming it's a meter in height. This is certainly more than a football field and this is Germany only.
We estimate that we have about 300.000 m³ nuclear waste until 2080 because of the ongoing deconstruction of old nuclear power plants... And still we have no idea how to store the waste savely and permanently.

They're bike-shedding and blocking a major stepping stone to a coal, petrol and gas free future for the sake of idealism.
I really don't get this "nuclear as stepping stone" argument. Nuclear power plants take up to ten years to build. Also (at least here in Germany) nuclear power was expensive as hell and was heavily subsidized.
We have technology to replace coal and gas: Wind, solar, geothermal, etc. Why bother with nuclear and the waste we can't store properly...?
Lego only or are you open for alternative building bricks like CADA or bluebrixx?
I found that there are nice alternatives with attractive prices. But still an expensive hobby.
I’d love to use a Pi, but have yet to find one at anything close to MSRP, so I’m eyeing different netbooks that I can run Linux on.
I don't know if Plex supports this feature but I'm running Jellyfin on a RPi 4B and Jellyfin support live transcoding for video formats that are not natively supported by the streaming client. Although RPi 4B supports hardware encoding of h264 1080p30, it performs badly.
So if you're using live transcoding maybe opt for hardware with more oomph.
Aber der Mittelstand!!!!! Soll der etwa mit dem Bus zum Kunden fahren??? 😧
Bestimmt, um die Altbestände der Verbrenner los zu werden und die Lager und Produktionsstraßen für die E-Autos frei zu schaufeln /s
I run Jellyfin on a RPi 4. It works for me, but only because I use codecs (h264/265 for video, AAC for audio) that are definitely supported on my players (NVidia Shield TV and android phones). This leads to Jellyfin not touching the files and just providing them to the player. As soon as any codec doesn't fit my client (for example OPUS audio) Jellyfin starts re-encoding the audio and remuxing the stream and the stream just fails.
So yes: RPi4 is generally not able to run Jellyfin unless you have a very specific setup.
