Sounds like you need some more hobbies to throw at it. :-)

You could always inflate the numbers by giving it artificial load but I imagine that breaks a ToS somewhere.

I use Steam + Proton in an LXC so I can share the graphics card among several other containers. It works quite well with streaming once I got it set up.

I was going to recommend Logseq as well. I use the git plug-in on laptops and Working Copy (git on iOS) and some automations to sync it on mobile.

With Plex you can go to https://app.plex.tv from your work computer and steam from your browser. That said, if you can install software, Plexamp is a great way to listen to and rediscover your music.

Nostr gets rid of the notion of servers and admins. At a high level everyone on nostr owns their own account (no central instance). When you want to post something you send your content to a list of relays you choose.

Other people can choose what relays they want to subscribe to.

Relays can block people from subscribing or posting.

Everything is cryptographically secured so there is no way for someone to pretend to be you.

Lemmy is different where the instance admin has complete control. Admins can post as you and users cannot easily migrate to a different server.

I’m glad to see there is now a free version of Plex Amp. This is, by far, my favorite way to stream my music library.

If you stream games or play multiplayer you may want to consider disabling that anyway as it dramatically improves the WIFI speed and reliability.

What do your logs say?

Most of the time it’s pretty simple to play non-Steam games. It’s made even better with Decky and SteamGridDB.

In a similar vain, enabling ssh and using that for config or moving files around has saved me a lot of typing.

Similar to how there are Mastodon hosting providers, I imagine Lemmy providers will eventually appear to make being your own admin even simpler.

My understanding is many SD cards have sub-optimal wear leveling compared with SSDs so there may be more to it than just writes per sector.

If it helps, I took mine apart this last weekend with no issues whatsoever.

If there is a vulnerability in the software, it’s entirely possible for a single attack to take everyone down. All the instances are known and easily discovered.

It’s not great but if you copy the URL into your instance’s search, you can get to the post that way.

No typo. I had my games on a 1TB microSD card and now they are on a 2TB SSD.

SanDisk 1TB Extreme microSDXC UHS-I. I play a lot of Diablo IV and Forza Horizon 5 and the loading screens are much faster.

My observation is that the SD card tops out around 30mb/s.

I did this for a while until recently I put in a 2TB SSD and the performance difference is night and day.

I at least suspect there will be a community porting some variant of SteamOS to the more popular handhelds.

Sometimes I’ll find myself streaming the Xbox or PS5 on the couch in front of the TV with it turned off.
