But why would they be talking about using batteries for their non-solar setup, which was the context.
Also it still seems like a weird concern. Again. Unless we were talking about the solar setup and they’re worried they fucked something up or something. And even still. You don’t need much battery for an rpi or whatever.

I’m with you. I don’[ NEED a 5-node VM cluster on top of all the other crap.
But I wanted a 5-node VM cluster.

What about remote streaming, to other users…?
- Comment on Plex’s crackdown on free remote streaming access starts this week - Ars Technica 10 months ago:
For remote streaming to, say, your mum’s house? (Or a friend, etc)?
- Comment on Plex’s crackdown on free remote streaming access starts this week - Ars Technica 10 months ago:
Is it more intuitive to set up for remote streaming to friends…? That’s the use case here and as far as I know the answer is a big “no”.

I did 100 or so Win95 (incl OSR2) installs and never ran into that.

I really do feel like if computers had peaked somewhere in the 90s, maybe with just incremental improvements to technology at that point, that the world would be a (less convenient but) much better place today.

It’s your problem now. This is the kind of thing that happens.

Eh, I find Emby pretty close to on-par at this point.
- Comment on That's all folks, Plex is starting to charge for sharing 1 year ago:
I’m also not particularly happy with giving a bunch of people VPB access to my setup. Or other potential complications that come with that setup.
I know enough to be able to lock it down, but I dont want the hassle. And other people will want it less.

I’m pretty happy with Emby, which also lets me easily do remote streaming.
