[692.32 --> 693.28] I want something headless. |
[693.40 --> 694.22] I want it to be Linux. |
[694.64 --> 697.54] I mean, Asahi, the last couple of weeks, |
[698.18 --> 703.32] released preliminary support for GPU acceleration under Linux with the M1 chip, |
[703.40 --> 705.52] which is a huge, huge milestone. |
[705.52 --> 707.38] Yeah, using a Rust driver. |
[708.14 --> 709.20] A Rust driver. |
[709.62 --> 710.46] I mean, that's amazing. |
[711.20 --> 713.32] So maybe, I mean, maybe it's not too far off, |
[713.38 --> 716.60] but it's not going to be within the time that I need to build my next home server. |
[717.18 --> 720.88] I think I'm going to have to, just out of practicality, base it around this yellow. |
[721.26 --> 722.92] It would seem crazy not to, you know, |
[722.94 --> 727.02] showing up on my doorstep as I'm returning back in town and I need a new server. |
[727.16 --> 729.40] Yeah, if you need an appliance, it sounds like that might be it. |
[729.46 --> 730.38] But let me ask you this. |
[730.38 --> 735.84] If money was no object, what would you do in dupes? |
[736.22 --> 737.30] The trickiest thing is storage. |
[737.46 --> 741.20] If money was no object, I'd spend a lot on storage and it'd be solid state storage |
[741.20 --> 742.30] because I have to go down the road. |
[743.24 --> 745.18] So that's where I'd probably blow a lot of money. |
[746.02 --> 748.62] You're not going to believe this, but I mean, for 90% of the time, |
[748.66 --> 751.30] I have found the Raspberry Pi 4 has been fast enough. |
[751.72 --> 753.74] The pages could have always loaded faster in Home Assistant. |
[753.94 --> 755.64] And I'm on a couple of versions behind now. |
[756.14 --> 757.46] Home Assistant could have always been faster. |
[757.46 --> 761.74] But Plex and Sync thing and like my Markdown Docs, |
[761.76 --> 763.80] I forget the name of the Markdown Docs website thing. |
[764.26 --> 766.04] Those all always ran totally fine. |
[766.36 --> 767.16] I was surprised. |
[767.30 --> 769.60] I was shocked that I got by with a Raspberry Pi. |
[769.98 --> 773.16] It was just Home Assistant that could be a little bit faster. |
[773.74 --> 776.80] But, you know, a lot of that might have come down to storage technology. |
[777.44 --> 779.70] That's why I think the M1 would be perfect, you know? |
[779.80 --> 780.02] Yeah. |
[780.24 --> 783.72] 10, 20 watts, a lot of horsepower, fast storage. |
[784.42 --> 785.50] Just don't want macOS. |
[785.50 --> 790.04] Well, if power was no object, I know we made money no object just then, |
[790.10 --> 792.30] but I think power is probably your biggest limiting factor, |
[792.46 --> 793.72] as well as maybe space. |
[794.20 --> 796.72] Like, you can't have a big 42U rack in there, can you? |
[797.04 --> 799.60] Like, if power was no object, would you do the same thing? |
[800.08 --> 803.52] If power was no object, I think I'd be tempted to build a rack unit |
[803.52 --> 805.76] into one of the storage bays, you know, |
[805.80 --> 807.60] and go with like a big x86 box. |
[807.60 --> 811.50] And probably do a lot of hosting in Joops, |
[812.20 --> 814.74] just because that's... |
[814.74 --> 815.68] I like the idea of something. |
[815.86 --> 817.26] It's truly decentralized. |
[817.56 --> 818.20] I can move it. |
[818.26 --> 819.22] I can take it with me. |
[819.80 --> 822.04] And I'd rather have the source of truth here, |
[822.08 --> 823.08] as long as I had a good backup. |
[823.54 --> 826.04] Right now, I hold the source of truth in everything at the studio. |
[826.50 --> 828.80] So I'd probably build a rack unit, if I could go crazy. |
[828.94 --> 829.82] But I don't need it. |
[830.26 --> 832.54] You know, I didn't lose any data. |
[832.54 --> 834.82] My server's down, but I didn't lose any data. |
[835.24 --> 837.32] So the setup is working as I need it to. |
[838.34 --> 841.24] Well, the obvious thing that comes to mind for me |
[841.24 --> 846.86] is the Intel NUC, that kind of tiny mini micro thing. |
[846.94 --> 848.96] I don't know if you've been following Serve the Home at all |
[848.96 --> 849.94] over the last few months. |
[850.60 --> 852.82] They've been doing a series called Tiny Mini Micro, |
[852.98 --> 857.80] where they get these four, five, six, ten liter micro, |
[858.52 --> 861.08] essentially thin client machines designed for |
[862.54 --> 863.98] business applications. |
[864.70 --> 867.46] And they've got powerful chips in them |
[867.46 --> 870.80] and 32 gigs of RAM and, you know, all the rest of it. |
[871.12 --> 874.66] And they are the size of two or three CD cases |
[874.66 --> 875.82] stacked on top of each other. |
[876.74 --> 877.98] What about something like that? |
[878.34 --> 879.78] That is pretty tempting, |
[880.42 --> 882.96] especially if it's got, you know, reasonable horsepower |
[882.96 --> 885.16] and it can do decent video decoding. |
[886.30 --> 888.28] That would be, and networking and connectivity, |
[888.82 --> 890.64] because I always need to add more storage. |
[890.64 --> 893.36] I think what you'd be looking for there is your silver bullet |
[893.36 --> 895.56] for video decoding would be QuickSync support, |
[895.76 --> 897.76] which does limit you to Intel. |
[898.20 --> 900.24] But, you know, speaking from experience, |
[900.46 --> 903.44] QuickSync uses anywhere from four to six, |
[903.54 --> 906.46] maybe eight watts to transcode a 4K stream. |
[906.74 --> 908.50] And it's hard limited at eight watts. |
[908.68 --> 911.26] Like I've never been able to get it to go above eight, |
[911.94 --> 914.30] eight to 10 watts is about the maximum I've ever seen. |
[914.52 --> 917.18] So even if you're doing multiple transcodes at once, |
[917.18 --> 919.50] which in an RV I find very unlikely, |
[920.28 --> 921.24] QuickSync is the way to go. |
[921.82 --> 922.42] That is the nice thing, |
[922.46 --> 924.62] is I only really need to build for like two televisions. |
[925.00 --> 926.64] Three is the max. |
[926.74 --> 927.78] Well, I guess there's always tablets, |
[928.06 --> 930.02] but very unlikely that we'd have three TVs |
[930.02 --> 931.42] and a tablet going in the RV. |
[931.90 --> 935.46] But you could negate the transcoding requirement entirely |
[935.46 --> 938.14] just simply by using something like TDAR |
[938.14 --> 940.48] or Handbrake to pre-encode the media. |
[940.70 --> 942.12] And you can automate all that stuff, |
[942.48 --> 944.30] you know, into the correct formats for the TV. |
[944.30 --> 946.06] You know, actually I think for the most part, |
