Tidal has been pretty good for me over the past 5 years. I don't know what your criteria are, but for me it's something like 1) is the catalog big enough to offer 90% of what I'm looking for and 2) no advertising if I'm paying for the service. It ticks those boxes. I imagine it's only a matter of time until they introduce the bullshit tier where you're paying and being advertised to, but for now you get what you pay for.

Sounds like you don't smoke cigarettes, so not that dumb!

I've had a good experience so far with two minipcs, mele quieter 4c for kodi, and a morefine m9 (I think this one is branded as mipowcat in the EU). They're both n100, the m9 can go up to 32gb of ram although it is picky about what modules it will accept. I use the m9 for jellyfin and about 10 other services. Quick sync works great as far as I've tested it. For jellyfin I'm relying mostly on direct streaming, but I tried a few episodes with forcing some transcoding by using Firefox for playback and it worked fine.

I think they're suggesting the BMW comment reads like an ad by responding like an ad.

I don't think it's actually still popular, but I'm just talking out of my ass here. I remember it made some waves a few months ago about finally having a new release after so long, and my feeling was a shitload of nostalgia brought it back into the internet spotlight, regardless of how many people are actually using it.

I gave it a spin again, purely for nostalgia. I could find no compelling reason to use it over my actual preferred player, foobar

I feel like the argument for using a nonstandard ssh port these days is that you dodge the low tier automation/bots that are endlessly scanning IPs and port 22 and trying obvious usernames and passwords. I do also question how much it is worth dodging these since presumably you'd have already done the other basics like key only and no root login before this. Maybe there's some value if you want a clean auth.log or equivalent

Val!

To add to this, there's even the capacity to add usb dacs if the underlying distribution supports it. Picoreplayer was my introduction to these tools and I'm pretty sure it's my final destination. Can't recommend it enough if they have the time and curiosity to get it set up.

I would also add that if the person OP is asking on behalf of is not so inclined to get into the technical parts and okay with possibly throwing money at the project, volumio is there. I tried this first and appreciated it for what it was, but I wanted features behind the pay wall which are readily available for free with pCP.

For me, the single cup v60 is where it's at for a great drink regardless of the cost, and you really don't have to break the bank for a solid setup. A decent hand grinder, gooseneck kettle with a thermometer, and brewer can all be had within $200. Once you find a recipe you like and get comfy with the technique it's pretty easy to make brews that are consistently better than most anything you'd get from a shop or cafe.

1zpresso makes nice grinders in the $100-$200 range, and I wouldn't be very picky about the kettle unless you're using an induction stove top. Hario v60 brewers are about $20.

If you want to put the grinding issue aside and try things before committing to tools, you might see if you have some local roaster/cafes nearby. Most that sell beans will also grind for you, and they should grind according to whatever brew method you want to try.

I ran into this exactly, but it turned out to be device compatibility. I could never find it in the play store on the (x86) Chromebook, while it always showed up as you'd expect on the arm android.

There's also the "pavlis" recipe, or simply the potassium bicarbonate mix:

Make a concentrate of 10 grams per 100 mL, then use 1ml of concentrate per 1 liter.

Be sure to keep the concentrate in the fridge to slow down the growth of any civilizations, though. A 100ml batch lasts me about 6 weeks at roughly 4 shots a day.

Thanks, I was wondering why the s3 prefixes were used. If my memory serves, b2 is especially better on the billing rates for retrieval, so a better choice if large disaster recovery is on your mind.
