Yeah the first run experience really needs to be tweaked so it’s a normal window.

Gotcha, in that case maybe a container? You can use a bind mount to link a folder on the host to inside the container. You could use docker/podman or LXC.

Does rclone support the cloud service?

Yeah it seems this is not really meant for full self-hosting, it might be better to find another option to use.

Sounds like you’re just running the back end, and it’s using the public front end linked to your local back end by default.

If you want to use port 12470 it says that is https so you’d need to type that in instead of http in your browser.

If you wanted to run the whole thing locally, it mentions disabling CORS, and then you’d probably need to set up the web front end: https://github.com/Stremio/stremio-web

Yes there’s always a chance corruption can happen from a hard power off, always keep reliable backups.

I would go with a managed Nextcloud provider, it’s such a pain to manage self hosting Nextcloud specifically.

Be extra vigilant with your backups though, free stuff always has a higher chance of weird stuff happening, once they just removed my VPS after my trial ended and told me to re-create it.

Dynamic DNS is free generally, for example if you put your domain on Cloudflare or another DNS host with an API that is supported you can just update the A records automatically on IP change.

There isn’t one.

You can combine several other services though, such as Matrix for chat, Mumble or Teamspeak for voice, and OBS + BroadcastBox for game streaming.

Sounds like maybe a faulty battery failing early, it should be under warranty I’d imagine if it has only been a few months?

The battery health indicator could be wrong, does it still run as long as it used to?

I’d take a guess that from their perspective, putting that time + money into developing and supporting a Linux version isn’t worth it when probably ~3% of the user base is using it.

They generally all connect over Bluetooth so should work just fine.

The only sticking point may be if Linux doesn’t have the proper codecs like aptX or LDAC (and the earbuds support them) you won’t get as high quality audio as you should.

Can you restore a backup image? Sometimes that’s easier to roll back a day rather than spend all the time trying to troubleshoot.

Hotspots won’t hurt anything unless they get too hot and damage the coating on the windings, I would assume the manufacturer is aware of that and designed the startup current so it’s safe.

Car engines have connecting rods and all kinds of extreme side forces on bearings that get stressed under high load. Brushless motors do not have any of those things, just a rotational bearing that doesn’t experience any more load on startup vs constant speed.

The motors are brushless, so no wear happens during spin-up from the extra current other than a little more heat for a few seconds.

Maybe Intel AMT running? I’m not sure it can be disabled though.

It’s just WIN + Spacebar, or click the keyboard layout icon in the taskbar.
