Fuck that noise too.

Technically, the “best” option would be to VLAN the WiFi network separately from a wired network where all the important devices are connected.

But honestly, for normal people, that’s over the top. Try WPA3 first and see if you have any devices that won’t work over it. If you run into issues, swap over to WPA2. I generally say start stricter and loosen the metaphorical belt only as necessary.

That’s okay, it had to be done.

You’re right, but it does still work.

Downloading music from YouTube will get you MP3s, but they will have gone through the YT compression algorithms.

Use Deemix instead. Downloads MP3s straight from the Deezer servers with all metadata and album art.

More like short them. This is going to be devastating for their business. I could see them losing tons of customers.

Everyone else has described the complications that a Mac mini would have. So why not consider something else? Lenovo, HP, and Dell make 1l ultra small form factor PCs and they’re pretty cheap on eBay. They’re also low power. Search for Tiny Mini Micro to find information.

I have three Lenovo Thinkcentre machines - two with 32gb RAM and one with 64gb RAM - running my Proxmox VE cluster. Highly recommend using those small machines instead of a Mac mini.

This just screams “stupid new CEO obsessed with trying to implement AI into everything”.

That interface is 100% SteamOS.

It depends on the version, but yes, it does. It’s especially a problem on prebuilt machines and laptops. It is incredibly annoying to work with in a corporate environment. Our helpdesk tech comes to me with issues related to this probably three times a week. I gave up with work arounds and we just have a throwaway Microsoft account now.
