average user doesn’t even know what a port number or IP address is

They don’t need to, just give them a url, username and password and let them type each for each field.

(If you mean because you want them to configure a vpn to access your jellyfin instance, then just expose it to the internet and skip that, which surely you pretty much have to do for your plex instance)

Cost:Convenience

Do people really think this or will they think (like everyone i know) that it’s free and I can watch what I want.

Very fun fact, so much so I wanted to know more.

originates from the Greek helix (ἕλιξ), genitive helikos (ἕλῐκος), “helix, spiral, whirl, convolution”[1] and pteron (πτερόν) “wing”

That makes a lot of sense, wish you good luck on the whole process

Do you know how long a renovation would take? Maybe you could get away with washing with a wet rag/towel to save building a whole new bathroom. Unless you also just want two bathrooms because that’s neat to have.

Lol I agree. The value is horrendous when you spec one of their products to have decent storage/ram, but nevertheless can’t fault the speed of their ARM chips.

I have no source, but I remember seeing a graph of where iPhones sell and places like China/India were 80% android phones (mostly Samsung I think).

I don’t think the asian marketplace puts Apple products in such high regard as the US.

Samsung phones are still premium, I think they appeal more in other countries.

I see what you mean though with 20% of just China being almost the US population, but they are still losing 300m customers.

Hehe that is funny, sadly I think the US is Apples biggest market, so they probably wouldn’t want to let go and give up any marketshare.

US usually is the most important market for most (international) companies I believe.

underpowered trash

I hate to say it, but it’s actually quite powerful trash that they produce.

Of course, I run EndeavourOS. My guess is that nowadays it doesn’t matter if you run amd or nvidia (likely won’t run into problems with either).

I’m not sure about the specific AI apps you mention, but from my personal experience the “AMD works way better than Nvidia on Linux” mindset is no longer a thing.

When I upgraded to a new gpu a few years ago, I first got an AMD gpu because of that mindset that was all over the internet (I believed them), but for the life of me I couldn’t get games to run properly with it. A week later I traded it for an Nvidia card and it just works.

I do suffer from system wake from sleep issues that I think are the nvidia drivers fault, but atleast I can play games if I decide to.
