If people only need a browser and office suite and adobe, a $200 computer will do that just as well. No need to spend USD$1000.

There is basically no use case for this machine at the price that it is.

Even if subsidised they would still be terrible as a work machine lol. The hardware is not good. Work machines are almost always i7s at a minimum.

Remember that these machines are neutered to keep under a tiny power draw.

The hardware is terribly overpriced for a work pc. There are many far superior work desktops for far cheaper.

Not a good one, that’s for sure. Should’ve just eaten the losses and cancelled it, or sold it at a big loss since they make money off every game it plays.

Why would you bother with jellyfin locally if you have Plex also locally? It does nothing better.

Plex has zero control over it unless you want to do remote streaming.

Plex server doesn’t need to be “portable”, and running it in docker definitely doesn’t make it easier.

There absolutely are programs that make sense to run in docker, but Plex server isn’t one of them.

No, what I described is the sunk cost fallacy. You misunderstood it.

I remember when people thought that Sony buying Bungie was better than Microsoft buying ABK 🤣. Then it came out that Bungie tried to sell themselves to Microsoft again but they said no thanks, before Bungie went to Sony 🤣

Bungie have been a shit show since they were owned by Microsoft.

Not true.

Yes, true: https://youtu.be/7jJ7myLfgM8

Also not true.

Where’s COD and Warzone on Linux? GTA online? Fortnite? Battlefield 6? Apex? Valorant? PUBG? R6?

There’s zero need to run Plex in a docker container.

The sunk cost fallacy is when you keep sinking more money into something because of how much you have already sunk into it. It doesn’t apply when you simply make a one-off purchase and then don’t ever spend another cent.

Why would you bother “maintaining” jellyfin when you don’t use it? Just install it if you ever move away from Plex. Seems like work for nothing.

Plex just works, especially for library sharing and remote watching - something that does not work without insecure and/or messy workarounds on jellyfin.

Most devices that people watch tv and movies on in people’s houses don’t have a way to connect to Tailscale.

You thinking it’s an “obvious fallacy” is what should be irking you, cause you’re wrong lol

No, it’s not the sunk cost fallacy lol

It would have to be paid, the exact thing that jellyfin evangelists despise……while half of them happily subscribe and pay $ for a VPS just so they don’t have to subscribe to Plex while having a much worse experience 🤣

JellyFin users seem to be like Linux users.

Tailscale is a vpn for all that matters.
