Am I the only person that thinks this meme doesn’t make sense? Hulk’s giving Antman tacos because Antman lost his tacos and would very much appreciate the generous offer.
yeah, its ironic
what is my purpose?
“You’re a VPN and you filter ads via DNS.”
fucking sweet, man. Glad I’m not an emulation console.
Shit, I just realized my NAS is less powerful than a modern Pi. It’s only a dual core, 1.6GHz Atom with 1.8GB ram.
That’s not even nearly as powerful as a pi 4. At least on paper
what architecture is the CPU?
I made a TV network on mine using a SSD, VLC, and some recordings, a composite to coax converter, and some DVDs I bought from a thrift store. Works pretty well.

I setup a k8s rpi cluster for this reason, and now I just have 4 overloaded pis 🙃
Could you not just actually build a dedicated PC for that price? Lol
But then he won’t have a k8s rpi cluster
and the power consumption adds up, too.
This is true. Really annoyed that arm as a hole isn’t being utilized like it could be by really anyone but apple. We could be making arm Linux powerhouses that sip power like a mid tier x86 laptop. The worry by some is that there is now way to do this without having every component solderd on, but dell has already made a new open laptop ram slot standard that has almost the same latency as Apple’s soldered ram.
Arm is the future, and needs to be treated as such more than it is.
I mean, it’s not just Apple, Google is all in on ARM and has been for like a decade and a half.
As for the laptop, look up framework
Yeah but Chromebooks suck, apple is making computers that aren’t just for web browsing
Can anyone tell me of I can run a Plex server and a pi hole on the new raspberry 8gig ?
yes, but I would recommend transcoding everything for direct play before putting it on the server
Or just disable transcoding and play in full quality
Probably? I believe the pihole is pretty low resource. I have mine on a Zero.
Ty
This is why I bought myself a server (consumer pc with 40TB) that does all that for only 1000€
I used to have my own server for 4 years. It was my personal compute with virtual machine and 10TB. Then I checked my electricity bill, it was so expensive I rebase everything on a single RockPro64 with a raid 1. Hardware budget is not that expensive, but you should definitly calculate how much electricty will weighs on your house budget
I used an old laptop I had with a broken screen. Werks
I see myself in this picture, and I don’t like it 😂😂😂 that’s why I’m running 2 pi’s 😁 photoprism, pihole, pivpn, unbound, portainer, and multiple HDD setup with cron jobs as a nas, and another pi with heimdal, pihole, pivpn. Unify controller, NUT server… Prob forgetting some lpl, Looking to add a lot more docker containers… So ya… This meme got me in the feels lol
I feel you. I don’t know your usecase for photoprism, but do you know immich? https://immich.app
I really appreciate you making me aware of immich!! Think I may host it on my other pi, and give it a try out, have photosprism and immich on separate pi and see which I like better 😊 thanks!!
Why not use a full-size computer for all that stuff?
€€€
I take it you don’t already have a desktop you can use?
I think they mean the power consumption. Single board pis and such sip power. Desktops are usually drawing too much at idle to leave running like a pi. i mean you can if you have cash to do that
To save money, they can go the derelict laptop route.
If they get a low tdp board, maybe like an old laptop without a battery, the power difference isn’t going to be too much. Pi can pull 9W at full tilt. And an old Ultrabook with it’s monitor tuned off or unplugged can probably pull 35-45W at full tilt.
So 45W - 9W = 36W
36w x 24hr x 356 = 315,360Wh
315.36kWh x 0.25 cents = 78.84 a year
But that’s assuming everything is running at full speed. For something running 24/7, we can probably estimate idle state is more common. Laptops can idle about 3-4W a pi4 is also idle around 3-4W.
So 90% at 4W and 10% at 45W for the laptop
And 90% at 4W and 10% at 9W for the pi
Gives us 8.1W average for the laptop
And 4.5W for the pi
Giving us a total difference of 31.536kWh. or 7.88 additional a year.
This is also assuming the laptop has the same computational power as the pi, which isn’t true, so the laptop will end up finishing tasks faster than the pi and use more power for a shorter amount of time.
