Anybody know of a good guide for hosting this with GPU? Every guide seems to be talking about running it on CPU when one would expect the opposite to be true. I have not been able to use my RTX 3060 for this so far.

Your last line reminds me of AMD Vs Intel battle. AMD was cheaper and better value for a lot of years till they were lagging behind Intel on performance. But the moment they attained parity with Intel with their Zen CPUs, they also started pricing their CPUs higher than Intel and also completely abandoned the low end market. Intel’s cheapest 12th gen CPU is currently more than 20% cheaper than AMDs cheapest Ryzen 5000 series CPU here in India.

Sony will probably follow a 3-year lag release cycle, so yes, they won’t be exclusives eventually. However, emulation is highly unlikely given that almost 10-year old PS4 can still not be reliably emulated.

Regardless of what system you use, your family members will always only have to connect to the shared folders. If they just want to backup and browse files, they won’t have to touch a terminal, ever. That’s the whole point of NAS.

So it’s really a matter of your budget and how much time you’re willing to spend setting it up. For instance, a 5-bay hard drive enclosure and an old 7th gen i3 NUC will do most of what a Synology DS423+ will do and will save youa about US $250. But the synology will take you 2 hours to setup and a few hours of tinkering if you wish whereas the NUC will take many hours of tinkering and setup, depending on your skill level. You’ll also end up with a less polished interface on the NUC setup.

So if you’re the kind of person who loves playing around with custom built system, pickup whatever you like and set it up to your preference. If you just want to get something and have it work, go for Synology.

Oh, and also, Synology shares a lot of data with Synology servers. Mostly it’s not a concern, but if you worry about that kind of thing, you might want to know beforehand.

20 million units of a gaming console hardly sounds like a crisis. People have gotten far too used to sales number of mobile phones. Consoles are not something everyone buys.

I needed a second number a few months ago. My phone has a physical SIM and an eSIM slot. I looked at eSIM.

This is from India, there was no clear information on switching phones and all. Since many cheap phones (the type I use) still don’t have eSIM slots, I might need move back to physical SIM later. There was no information about that either.

And lastly, regulations suck here. Every change of SIM type is treated as a new connection which comes with a 24-hour embargo on everything except incoming calls.

I just bought a cheap second phone.

The Fdiverse already seems to be unraveling.

I always thought the model was flawed. Content from other instances should only be viewable and not copied to all instances.

I’m someone who doesn’t care about graphics a whole lot. I play most modern games at 1080p Mid/high on my RTX 3060.

And yet, I totally agree with your points. Many times, older games had rich looking environment from a distance, but if you go close or try to interact with it, it just breaks the illusion. Like, leaves can’t move independently or plants just don’t react to your trampling then etc.

A lot of graphical improvements are also accompanied with improvements in how elements interact with other elements in the game. And that definitely adds to the immersion, when you can feel like you’re a part of the environment.
