  • I hang out with my son and we play games together. We either play together or he plays on the PS5 and I play on the PC in the same room.

    It’s allowed me to teach him healthy habits such as taking a break when he’s getting frustrated rather than getting angry at the game. We also share our triumphs and disasters which makes it much more social and since I’m a gamer I can curate the games he plays.

    Personally I’ll be gaming until I die, fortunately my wife doesn’t see it as immature as I’ve never allowed it to interfere with being a functional adult.






  • It really depends on how you want to deal with your media. I want the best copy of movies that I can get. So I need the server to transcode but that requires a beefy cpu for one stream or using a gpu ( intel iGPUs are great for this) for more. Unfortunately accelerated transcoding requires to pay for plex pass. If you really need hardware transcoding and don’t want to pay you could go with Jellyfin, though it’s harder to set up and doesn’t have clients for as many devices.

    One thing is that there are reasonably frequent discounts on lifetime plex pass which is what I did.
