I can’t wait for this. I’ve gone down a few rabbit holes looking into solar and battery storage, and even just battery storage by itself to replace the generator we have for when power is out and/or to offset peak use time rates. But batteries are really expensive and I’ve already got a hundred kilowatt hours sitting in my garage.
I’m not sure what you mean by cost-effective resources, are you wondering what things are worth investing into inside of a total budget versus which things you could be more frugal on? Overall I would say there’s not a big difference in terms of what to consider differently from running Windows: Linux will benefit just as much from good hardware (maybe more?) as window as will.
If you want to do plex and utilize hardware video transcoding you’ll probably want an Nvidia GPU but I’ve had better experiences with AMD graphics cards in Linux. The best home management tool I can recommend is home assistant, and it doesn’t have particularly high system requirements, you can run it on a raspberry pi.
Would love to have seen OpenPilot form Comma on this list to how it compared.
It looks like they’ve changed the way they do it a bit they now have these (this is light to med, there’s another one for med-dark roast): https://happymugcoffee.com/products/roasters-choice-a
I have been buying from HappyMug for years, I do a subscription thing with them that gets me one bag of one of their blends that I picked and then one bag of single origin coffee every month. I’m very happy with it.
I don’t know about natively, but I’ve played both FFXIV and EVE Online in Linux in the past, and they ran well, but it’s been a little bit.
It’s an XWing! 👍
Yeah, I like overwatch, have gotten my money’s worth from it and the steam integration makes it so much easier to run on Linux, so I’m happy with it.
