  • I disagree with those saying that you can’t do a build for that budget, but I would suggest looking into used parts, at least for some things, to improve the result significantly.

    Since your system goal doesn’t seem to be storage related, as nextcloud includes storage obviously, but typically isn’t used to house multi-terabyte data sets. So assuming you can make that work for the “future homelab projects” to with dual 500gig NVME as storage. Search for a used mITX board+CPU that can accommodate that (has the slots), and go from there. Things like CPU cooler, if not part of a possible mainboard+CPU bundle, should be selected after the case at that is the limiting factor for it. Didn’t skimp on RAM size if you can (new or used is fine, depends what you can get in your area).

    With this list you’re basically done to get it up and running.



  • There’s also PikaOS. It’s using Debian mechanics (so apt as the package manager and such), but a modern kernel and their own repos. If you’re more used to this world, might be worth a look. 8 didn’t know how well it’ll handle the controller and specific button inputs from the deck though.

    I personally also came from a mostly debian background, but ended up going with CachyOS for my desktop needs (my deck is still on steam os). It’s arch based, and just very polished and well thought out. It has a version specifically for mobile consoles, like the steam deck.







  • You still need base CPU speed for a system to be usable. Try running a modern GPU on a 10 year old CPU. It’s even worse for some, where the GPU driver needs a relatively fast CPU for the GPU to run at full speed. Mostly Intel GPUs have this issue, which is sad cause they are the most affordable, but can’t be paired with an just an affordable CPU (or an older one).

    And we’re very far away with RISC-V from the kind of performance your need to run modern games, or even decade old games. Let alone fully utilizing a high end GPU.








  • I also don’t understand why I can’t be shown 2-3 options, it’s incredibly convenient. Manually adding waypoints, or manually telling it to avoid roads, isn’t and it’s also not the same thing. On Google I see whole alternative routes, in osmand I only see an adapted route when I make a change (waypoint/avoid), but I still only see that one route now. I no longer see the old one to compare, and switching back is cumbersome.

    I don’t really understand why a few options aren’t shown as a default, maybe with slightly certain criteria if possible for a particular a to B. Like one avoiding highways, or hills, or just smaller roads. Maybe a shortest and a quickest, maybe one with fewest lights. If that’s not possible, just show some comparable options with similar travel time? Would really improve the experience a lot.



  • Mein Problem ist nicht, dass Ich die maximale Geschwindigkeit fahren muss. Das Problem ist eher, dass andere der Ansicht sind, sie müssten an mir vorbei kommen weil ich sie nicht fahre. Bei nem Mofa (oder analog S-Pedelec) ist das recht ungefährlich. Bei nem Auto eher nicht mehr. Plus man ist schlicht im Weg, nicht jeder kauft gerne eine Fahrzeug mit dem Bewusstsein, dass es andere stören wird.

    Aus meinem Arbeitsweg von sagen wir 10km sind genau 4 Ampeln. Ab Oktober davon warte ich mehr als eine Schaltung, und meistens muss man nicht mal anhalten (3 der 4 haben eine gekoppelte Schaltung). Nicht jeder muss durch den Stadtkern von München, Berlin oder Hamburg.

    Mofas dürfen nicht auf Radwegen fahren, es sei denn diese sind explizit dafür freigegeben. Das sind quasi keine, also dürfen sie de fakto nur auf der Straße fahren. Das ist Teil des Problems.
