“vital Organs” of a demon???

Thanks for the post and the last one. I finally understood, what prowlarr is doing! What I don’t get: which program is moving the files from the town folder to the respective media folder? Is it Sonarr/radarr? Because they don’t seem to have the right access for that. Another question, which I always wanted to ask: let’s say I have two computers, one at home which should host jellyfin and the other computer is remote in a network in which I don’t bother about VPN for torrent. How would you set this up? And which services belong to which PC? So, does Sonarr etc needs to be on the first or second one?

LLM are used particularly to process big amounts of text. I remember my first encounter with it in 2009, somebody giving a talk about observing topics on Twitter, e.g. to track the source of fake news or figure out why some particular topic became viral.

You might already be using it regularly with a translation tool. Yesterday I just saw a foss app called receipt-wrangler, which uses LLM to parse shopping receipts, because a simple scan and ocr would still leave you with a highly unstructured heap of text, which is hard to parse into anything useful.

Nix is on my infinitely long list of stuff to get into, when I’m in better shape.

I heard that concern already, but had troubles finding something decent without blowing my wallet… the problem was obviously the search filters on the website, which I used… looking for the name, you provided I instantly found something really decent, which actually turned out cheaper Oo

ok, thanks. yes I noticed the realtek nic, but unfortunately I haven’t found a single MB with an intel chip below 200euro. So if this really causes issues, I’ll just get a PCIe NIC

RAM is not PCIe, so that is an independent question, whether to go for DDR5. Unfortunately I am not deep enough into the matter to give you a real answer to your question

thank you for the input and the references, this is highly appreciated!

• The concerns for the motherboard I am already looking into, do you have any thoughts on the ASRock B650M PG LIGHTNING, or the ASRock B650 PG LIGHTNING? latter is unfortunately not in stock, but besides the missing heatsink on top and the size I also do not really see a practical difference between the two
• it was funny to me, that nobody commented on the ram yet, that was literally the cheapest I found for the MB. So I can try to reiterate that part
• concerning monitor I was recently very lucky. I friend of mine fried his own and bought a new one, then he ask me, if I want to have it in order to try to fix it. Turned out the internal PSU was fried… so I tossed it out, soldered a barrel jack to the input wires and now use a 20euro external PSU. its a 1440p monitor with 165Hz.

they are a bit more pricy, but not much, so I changed that, thanks :)

that is a good point, our flat is in an older house and feels like we need to vacuum every day… not speaking of the two meowing furrballs roaming around… that bringts me to another important case-related topic… I’ll never again buy a case in which the power buttons are on top… one of my cat was walking over the case and his paw was still small enough to press the power button… in the middle of a dota match… at least it lead to a good story

the one I listed checked all boxes, good thing to look for, for my last one I still needed to have an obsolete windows partition…

thanks for the clarification. I always thought those giant heat sinks, which one often find on gaming boards are snake oil to make it look cooler ;) but anyway… the CPU I am currently aiming for has a TDP of 65W, so that should be fine… GPU I don’t know yet, there I might reiterate. I’ll definitely keep it on my radar.

I really would love to have such a setup, but only if I have a “stable” daily driver as fallback.

thanks for your input. for that purpose I recently built a low power N100 homeserver with a zfs setup. Electricity is really expensive here, so I didnt want to run a performance CPU and GPU 24h (even in idle)

thanks for the hint, I read not to good stuff about HDMI as well as of late. If that fails, I’ll just use the DP connectors :)

you already wrote, what I wanted to answer, I might also get into development myself again at some point. Further my hardware usually lasts for 5-10 years, so it should have some upgrade potential :) and both of us are not so much into “mobile” gaming, somehow that sounds for me, like playing with a gameboy on speed, but that might be my age speaking ;)

thanks for the input and the link. Yes the MB I am worried about the most. The last I had shipped with a buggy BIOS, and the published updates were even worse… but it is really hard to know in advance, otherwise the listed one has all IO, that I need.

thanks for the hint, I was now looking into it briefly. It seems to be particularly good for badly optimized games, or possibly older (like sc2, which is not really using multi-threading), is that correct? concerning offers… the closest to my current I found was 7800X3D which is with 376€ quiet more expensive, otherwise I found the AM4 variant 5700X3D for only 225€ (of course would need to change MB and ram), but can’t figure out, how the performance difference is. Do you have an idea if the letter is an upgrade from my original idea (7700)?

ah, found the button, thanks
