Great tool for documenting your setup. I use this at work a lot

I would say that “on prem” defines a location, “selfhosting” an action. You can do both at the same time, e.g. selfhosting nextcloud onprem.

Apparently, it is not only my oberservation, but the article says similarly:

The inconsistent approach to backward compatibility in decades past may also have played a part.

However, I’m not a db admin and my perspective might be biased (infosec).

I would say that this is a sign of a bad product. Apparently, compatibility between SQL server versions is not great.

Probably overkill, but for projects like this I’ve setup WordPress in the past. Once everything was done, I converted the WordPress page to a static site with httrack and use the static version.

This gives the ease of setting up and editing combined with the stability and security of a static HTML website.

While you can probably use them for some small tasks (like a switch, a file server with a USB thumb drive or a print server), you’re probably better off if you can sell them and buy a raspberry pi or similar.

The Fritzbox 7530 for example could be sold for 50€ (at least in my country).

The battery info was already working for me on desktop mode. It even has a nice bubble when the battery of the controller is low.

Glad that this is coming to game mode, too.

Thanks you for the clarification!

According to Wikipedia, there are less than 5000 games for nintendo switch, while the Steam Deck is far beyond 10k games.

It seems sort of a waste of resources to use a steam deck as a stationary device. However, I don’t think there is a really large market for a console-like steam machine.

That’s exactly what the nextcloud desktop app does.

What I don’t get is why anyone would like to buy a new gadget for some AI features. Just develop a nice app and let people run it on their phones.

TBH, the description in the original post is not very clear.

Have you tried the official Nextcloud desktop app?

Many “smart” devices are sold with the idea that you can control your home from somewhere else. Maybe change the temperature on your way home or get notified when someone rings your doorbell. All this stuff requires servers to work.

Controlling some lightbulbs via bluetooth/wifi would be possible of course, but probably not very interesting for many.

Even a raspberry pi can run linux with an lxd desktop, and this i3 is a few times faster than a raspberry pi. But it depends on what you want to with it…

The performance target of “linux desktop running lxd” and the price tag “not crazy expensive” is not very clear…

I would personally look for a fanless barebone pc and equip it with as much RAM and storage as you like. One example for this could be the Zotac ZBOX CI629, which you can get for around 400 Euros and has a 13th gen Intel i3 built in.

Is this within your budget?

Just guessing, I really don’t expect a Steam Deck release this year. But 2025 seems quite likely to me.

Edit: Maybe the next Steam Deck will be based on Zen 6? It is expected roughly two years after the Steam Deck OLED release.

The Zen6 architecture might adopt an advanced manufacturing process, potentially combining 3nm and 2nm technologies, to further enhance performance and efficiency. The expected launch of the Zen6 “Medusa” CPUs is projected for the 2025-2026 period, showcasing AMD’s strategic planning for future developments. - Source

As of this source, the difference is merely 3% in performance. Not worth it, IMO.

I found a price info in the forums:

What price I can expect? Base Model 7840u 16GB/512GB will be 499$ or 4099 CNY Base Model 8840u 16GB/512GB will be 599$ or 4499 CNY

Edit: The same source says there is a touch screen
