Use supervisor or desktop Linux for TV gaming PC + NAS? (sh.itjust.works)
 

To give a bit of context : I'm upgrading my whole desktop computer so I now have a spare computer for gaming on the TV. I'm thinking of using it mainly as a gaming "console", but might be interested in embedding a NAS as well, and possibly some Docker containers for Home Assistants etc...

So the question : should I just install a normal Distro like Arch, setup a network share and Docker containers, or should I use a proper hypervisor like Unraid and have a VM for couch gaming etc...?

What issues could I expect with both? Are performances impacted with the hypervisor? (I don't plan on doing competitive games on the TV) or is troubleshooting going to be easier on a standard distro?

Did someone do such a setup and have some feedback?

Never properly used Linux before, but I'm a Windows power-user and am looking to transition part of my setup to Linux.

The GPU is going to be an RTX3070 if that matters

This sounds a bit like Source Code with Jake Gyllenhaal but I'm pretty sure it's not it considering what happens

An ultra-TL;DR : you don't need the movie title for ChatGPT to steal an IP.

Mass effect... As long as I'm not on a far away colony close to Terminus / Batarians and the reapers aren't there yet I'm good 👌

The magic of a clear line of sight and vacuum for a good ~384'300km!

So should we do low power communications by using the moon as reflector dish?

The importance of a dedicated setup (europe.pub)
 

I've moved 3 times in the past 3 years, and only now do I have a dedicated small table for the miniature hobby. I have made more progress painting in 5 days than I did in the past year!

I think the most important part (for me) is to have a setup where I can just have my WIP there, ready to be worked on instantly. The less friction to start painting, the easier I'll start.

The Skadis board is also great for paint and tools, especially if you have a 3D printer. Having every pots visible when I get into my office makes me want to paint!

How soon in your hobby did you get a dedicated setup? For those that don't, how do you manage the setup time?
