If I were looking for a small Linux box to play with some larger self-hosting needs (PeerTube, Immich, etc) that would be exposed to the public internet…what hardware should I be looking at, and what distro is my best bet?

@adr I hadn’t seen that news yet. Fascinating, I’m interested to see how it works and what it can actually do.

My kid finished her "final" college app last night! Applying for a BFA in Musical Theater. A few stats:

24 different schools
48 different applications (each has both academic AND artistic)
28 different versions of edited, final prescreen videos
89 different videos recorded in total

Insane process!

@adr I've not seen anything at all, BUT - SteamDesk is very reasonable, and it wouldn't surprise me AT ALL if this thing was basically designed to eat Meta's lunch re: Quest. I have hope it will be reasonable.

So excited.
