Thing is, at the scale that a home server is likely to be providing, you don’t really need an upgrade at all for any of the components except storage and maybe a 2.5gig ethernet card depending on services available.

Also, like the other commenter said: SSDs. SATA ones (unless you have free PCIE lanes then use an m.sata adapter board).

For a personal server, just buy a liquidated office/business workstation and add storage as needed. Probably will still be cheap since the win10 EOL has led a bunch of those machines onto auction sites.

Prepaid sims exist, no?

Needs even more jpeg

From “EV conversion kits” to “offline conversion kits”.

Depends on what state you’re in, but yeah. Sometimes stuff like GTA might as well be a documentary for how people react here XD

Wouldn’t x86 to risc-v be like the most inefficient process in the world?

As a tip from someone who also used to host game servers on Linux mint (and now Ubuntu server), you will save yourself so many headaches if you use an open-source container program like Pterodactyl Panel. Even if a game isn’t officially supported (like 7 days to die), someone’s already made a community script for the game that can be imported in 4 or so clicks.

Trust me, it’s a hell of a lot better than the manual option on Windows or Linux for games XD

Hey, if y’all could fix Teamspeak and Matrix so they don’t feel like voice channels for ARMA games (and that’s it), I might have some success convincing my community to switch.

They’re probably operating out of a country where they are legally untouchable for copyright infringement. Or for that matter, just not in a 14 eyes country.

That’s a self-inflicted wound brother. It’s like playing a leaked copy of a game before release.

Tbf the only broken multiplayer is on the opt in unstable branch. It’s not like b41 mp vanished.

…and multiplayer, overhauled animations, 3d models, new textures, and mods galore :)

Yep, someone already joked that they picked 4 digits for their username so they have a failsafe for getting banned 9,998 times. That was at 0004.

If you look at their chat history it really explains it all tbh. I wonder if we could get this instance to defederate their account haven.

In that case, I guess that potential vector is moot. Although it could be that data wasn’t available until recent training of the weights.

Oh goddammit, you’re here. Move on to Lembot_0006 already, ya contrarian doofus.

…There’s a breaking bad joke to be made somewhere…

Harder to centralize control over the user. That’s the big reason, I’d imagine.
