@ipg @12 I have felt this so hard recently as Iโ€™ve been building a media player through NixOS on a ten-ish year old 1l PC. Should probably just grab an ARM based thing.

@12 @ipg I have a heap of 1l/TinyMiniMicro PCs, and Iโ€™m trying to work out how viable they are for kiosks for a client. So I thought Iโ€™d build a Plex box through NixOS as part of testing.

@12 @ipg Ah, pardon me. Plex comes as a server that hosts the database and a web app, or you can point a player app at it. The various kiosk systems use a similar architecture, so I was working on building something thatโ€™d allow me to use cheap secondhand hardware for various clients.
