I recently wrote a blog post about the new NAS I built myself and why I didn't choose for a RPI 4. https://jeroenpelgrims.com/diy-nas/
I think it terms of price it won't be much more expensive than an RPI NAS, but you'll get more performance and stability.
If you don't care about power usage and/or connecting stuff through USB you can also buy some older hardware instead.
"Ons moeder", which translates to something like "Our mom".
With the idea that if the robot cleans half as good as my mom does, the house will be clean enough to live in.
Here's a dev explaining it: https://lemmy.ml/comment/2618947
Apparently they do chargebacks, which costs the gamedevs money.
This is something that should have been in the opening post.
It explains why using these sites actually causes harm.
Instead of getting a game at a reduced rate without harming the dev much (just losing a sale) you're actually harming the dev.
This is something I didn't know and now I'll look more at discounted games on official platforms instead of these key sites.
I wonder why this is still limited in time?
Is this still in some kind of test phase or something?
Yeah, using a 9 year old work laptop as my home server. Then with the surging energy prices last year I decided to switch out that laptop with a raspberry pi 4 as server.
Conclusion: I now have a laptop and a RPI running 24/7 🤦♂️
We're almost there
