A named volume for the config directory for one.

BMW on the line for you, sir.

Take it off the charger and see if you get the claimed battery life. Maybe you will, or maybe your 3+ hours of battery time runs out in less than one.

I've used both APC (via apcupsd) and EATON (via nut), both work great.

Not really. Windows only supports FAT and NTFS filesystems natively. There was an old ext-fs driver back in the day, but I have not looked for one in a decade or more. There might be one out there already.

The deal with case-insensative support is likely from Windows users who are annoyed that Readme.md, readme.md, and README.MD are separate files on ext4 but the same file in FAT or NTFS. UNIX and Linux come from a school of thought that allowed you to do things like use different case in filenames.

Only if you've got it cranking all day. I've got a couple of Tiny (they're Micro, which is the same thing) systems that are silent when idle and nearly silent when running less than a load avg of 5. It's only if I try to spin up a heavy, CPU-bound process that their singular fan spins fast enough to be noticable.

So don't use one as a Mining rig, but if you want something that runs x64 workloads at 9-20 watts continuously, they're pretty good.

I've had good luck with Metro/Retro.

First off, if your clients can play the files natively, then anything capable of running Jellyfin will work. You only need specific hardware if you're going to transcode streams.

If you need transcoding, especially if you're going Intel, anything 8th Gen or newer will work.

As for your Linux distro, use whatever you're most comfortable with. Ububtu LTS or an EL-clone are both popular choices.

This is the way. I went from 6 low-end 16gb flash drives to 1 high-end 256gb Ventoy drive and it has been wonderful. I have yet to run out of space with 17 different Linux ISOs on there. I update Ventoy every month or so.

That's what "all" means, "all communities everywhere". If you only want to see groups on your instance, set your view to "Local", or even "Subscribed" to only see groups you have subscribed to.

Oh, my bad.

The two benefits to XFS that I've ever seen are that it has no inode limit like ext4 (which prevents the FS shrink). The other is that it seems to handle simultaneous I/O better than ext4 does; think very active database volumes and datastores.
