There’s not much point in sending it to be manufactured when it would fail DRC and a quick visual inspection. Experimenting is fun but there was no point wasting the money to make it when it clearly isn’t a working PCB.

True, hopefully they’re collecting frame time data as well.

This would be great, I get frustrated with so many games running terribly with stuttering and awful 1% lows on FPS, despite my hardware meeting/passing the recommended requirements.

It would be nice to see real data on that before hand, instead of needing to buy a game and ending up refunding it an hour later.

Nice, narrowing it down!

Next thing I would check is your configured DNS servers on the desktop, it needs to have only the pihole IP, if it has any other servers configured that is likely the issue.

Also worth pinging the pihole IP next time it’s not working, to check if it’s actually a networking issue instead of a DNS issue.

Mini PCs are even less usually, mine are around 2W idle which is less than my Pi! (i3-7100u CPUs)

Newer hardware that has lower idle consumption mostly. I’ve found there’s not much to do on a typical setup as far as software optimization, as most OS’s are already set up for pretty low power usage while idle.

HDD sleep can work if you don’t have anything accessing the drives, but with all the stuff running on my server there’s basically always some kind of activity going on so they never sleep. Less HDDs is the answer for me, I just have 2 large drives in a ZFS mirror.

My HP box with an i5-7500 idles around 15-20W which is decently low, but I also have 2 PCs with i3-7100u mobile chips that idle at 1-2W with 32GB of RAM and an NVMe SSD, which is wild.

Avoiding enterprise gear is key, it’s extremely power hungry.

I don’t think it’s a problem with PiHole realistically, it sounds more like for some reason your DNS requests are not getting to PiHole.

So I would start with checking if the request is reaching PiHole.

Next time it breaks, before restarting networkmanager, go check the pihole requests log and see if your DNS queries are even showing up there.

If they are, what does pihole show it’s returning for the query, is it the correct IP?

If that’s working properly then I would check if you can ping the server by IP directly, make sure that connection is working.

Uhh… Android has had it’s quick share or whatever they call it for years, is this a new one?

Lots of those don’t have any browser sync right?

I have a single container for docker that runs 95% of services, and a few other containers and VMs for things that aren’t docker, or are windows/osx.

ext4 is the simple easy option, I tend to pick that on systems with lower amounts of RAM since ZFS does need some RAM for itself.

I do have an external USB HDD for backups to be stored on.

Parks? Walking/hiking trails? Just wander off into national forest?

OP is using a VPS, not a phone/laptop.

Housing is never ‘unsellable’, the price is just too high.

Basically cosmetic wear/damage, vs mechanical damage.

So for example if a wheel feels loose if you pull/push on it, that’s probably wheel bearings and is unsafe. Or if there’s a crack running through a frame tube, loose/broken spokes, missing sprocket teeth, stuff that’s obviously bent out of place, and so on…

You can generally get an idea of a normal price range by looking at what’s for sale, just search outside your area as well if there’s not very many local listings.

As far as the condition of a bike, if the owner lists detailed specifics on service and upgrades that’s always a plus. Otherwise look at the pictures, is the chain rusty looking? Are the plastics/paint faded from sun? Does the engine area, fork seals, shock, etc… look like they’ve been leaking oil and picking up dirt?

Some wear and grime is expected, like where the riders boots rub on the engine cases, where knees touch the tank/seat area, and oil/lube around the sprockets if it has a chain (ideally the chain is somewhat clean though, and not caked in months of dirt).

Jellyfin kinda sucks as a music player, it takes so many clicks to navigate and it often sorts music incorrectly, so that’s one reason to use something else.

Without using a domain a reverse proxy doesn’t really make sense to use, since you’re just using direct IP addresses.

No it shouldn’t be, it might take awhile for things to catch up if you changed what you’re hosting on the root domain.

That said it’s much easier to run services on their own subdomains in the future, and leave the root domain only for a website/email if you happen to run those services.

At least mine is just on my local network and not on the public internet
