Not exactly the same, but suggests probably it would not turn out well. https://thebrain.mcgill.ca/flash/capsules/histoire_bleu06.html

I'd love it you'd name a few. I like games you can get lost in for hours and always looking for others I may have missed.

My father went to high school with someone whose last name was Butts. His parents named him Harold and called him, and thus his friends called him, Harry. I always kind of thought it was a tall tale until my father showed me his high school yearbook one day And there was a picture of Harry Butts.

I always kind of wanted to meet this man and his wife and ask her if he lived up to his name.

I tried so many, eventually landed on trilium. It's not perfect by any means, but it ticks the most boxes for my needs

This is probably not true. The concept of this phrase but referring to family is probably a modern confusion. There is no clear evidence it means it was really referencing ties to friends. Although I wish it did. Here's some further reading from others also looking for a clearer reference.

You are correct. -itis just means inflammation or infection, encephalon just means brain. You can have encephalitis caused by multiple things, viruses, bacteria, fungal, auto immune diseases and so forth

I love trilium, I can self host. Doesn't have user support so I host two instances for me and wife. We then use mealie for recipes. It's worked really well

Trilium notes. Not perfect, but the best of many I've tried for my needs.

I use backblaze B2. I use duplicity to create a local encrypted backup of daily and then monthly incremental backups that are stored on a separate hard drive as a local backup. I then sync that with backblaze every night. It's worked like a treat. Gives me my primary data, a local backup on a separate drive and then an off-site backup. And actually my primary data and my local backups are both on ZFS raidz2 drives, so I can even have drives fail and be okay.

I used to use glacier, but the backblaze interface and uploading scripts were just so much easier to use, and the price was comparable if not maybe just slightly cheaper, I can't remember exact. I think duplicity also has a front end, duplicati that some people use, but I've never used it.

Can you elaborate? Or tell me where I can read more, I did not know this

Perfect, I'll try it out. Sounds like no reason to get a steam link, and that what I have should work well enough

This is a fascinating idea, I've used KVMs in the past, but never One like this with an extender to go a long way over cat. I'm going to do some research on this, this might be exactly what I was looking for in the future when I want to eventually have a server room that I can have all my PCs in one room and go to other areas of the house. Thanks

 

I have steam up and running on my main daily driver ( currently endeavour OS, but I also have a dual boot to a Windows with steam also working if needed, but just about everything I'm playing lately is working great on Linux).

I have a TV connected to a older HP PC that acts as my media center. It runs Kodi on Linux mint. Both computers are wired ethernet connected. Is there a way I can stream/play games from my daily driver to my computer that's connected to the TV? Is there a Kodi add-on I could use? Do I just need to install steam on my Linux mint? I don't have a steam link device. I did some brief reading on steam remote play and it looks like that's more designed to share with others not just stream from my own account to another computer.

Currently My daily driver is actually close enough to my TV that I could even have a keyboard/controller connected to the daily driver and just stream the video if that was better. But in the future I may want to rearrange rooms, so ideally I guess it would be best to have the controller through my HTPC as well.

Any advice on how to best approach this?
