So far I've got the following in a working state:

* One-click autoscaling Navidrome deployment per user

* 100GiB+ distributed storage per user (configurable)

* unique Subsonic endpoint per user instance

* autocreated admin credentials

* custom upload webinterface for music library (takes zip & folders)

* automated tagging of all uploads using musicbrainz API

* tested backup & validated restore

I'm curious if anyone would be willing to pay for such a service?

i chose my laptop based mainly on reviews by https://www.notebookcheck.net/ and https://www.ultrabookreview.com/

i like having a database of detailed reviews that allow me to do apples to apples comparisons between different models tested using same methodology

but mine is an RTX 4090 gaming laptop. i don't know how relevant performance torture tests and thermal images are for your use case.

my main issue with the first RTX 4090 laptop i got was that i kept burning my hand on it while playing because it got so hot during game play - i had to return it and do proper research before getting a replacement that included thermal images of the keyboard under load with temperature measurements at WASD keys.

by swapping from Acer Triton 17X to Asus ROG Zephyrus Duo 16 i was able to get less throttling, quieter fans AND keyboard temps went from scorching hot to barely warm ( all at the same time ) - a huge improvement well worth the ASUS tax for me.

and worth the lengthy research.

I know these review sites. They usually don't focus all that much on open firmware and the ability to disable Intel/AMD management engines. They cover Starlabs and similar niche devices but they don't review them.

So far I'm kinda happy with my setup.

Though I'm already considering to add more robust monitoring, backups, node and master redundancy/high availability to make it into a reliable platform. Of course it had to end that way.

I can't remember if it was in 2021 or 2022 when we stopped having real nights where I live. The sky is now just this hazy melange of dark purple, semi-bright grey spots and weird ultramarine blue all over. And I know what light pollution in cities looks like. Night skies used to be way dsrker.

Wouldn't be surprised if that's just another result of #geoengineering or preparation for some fake alien invasion.

Thanks, I'm eyeing the 14" for stuff that'll never see a network connection.

Damn this guy deserves that last scene.

I'm glad I never hated on him when everyone else was. https://youtu.be/rWo3ff7cyhA?si=LsdAQfTW_Chdt3aL

Has anyone ever bought a Starlabs laptop?

They seem to ship really decent hardware with open firmware, high resolution & high refresh rate displays, proper Linux support, physical camera switches and fair prices for RAM & storage upgrades.

Interesting. I actually suspect the 1860s to be decade where the last reset happened.

I feel terribly ignorant but I just can't fathom why installing CRDs has to be done completely differently by almost every fucking helm chart out there.

I'm torn between taking a hero's dose of mushrooms today or be productive and get my product closer to launch.
