Only use jellyfin. Have a list of things want to update... but it works for now.
Yes that is a laptop usb cooler used as supplemental placebo cooling. Also a pc fan I have propped up against the hard drive feeding into the pi.
Can't recall last time used the ps4 or switch. But they're there
My tech stack:
And my storage NAS:

Why do you have the AP in there? Doesn't that affect your Wi-Fi range?
Wood in both directions. Also I have no other place to mount it without looking ugly as hell.
Also I'm renting so no easy wall mounting.
Ah, that makes sense. I have 7 nano HD in my house because constructions here are all concrete, so pretty much 1 AP per room.
The wall to the right is also solid but doesnt matter as I am not much in there.
But for concrete in all walls...Jeez must be expensive and annoying to run cable in all rooms.
That's an understatement, lol. And all my cabling is 6A, which is basically an iron bar 🤣. It took me and a friend of mine almost 4 days to push that wiring through
Had to pleasure of reorganizing a half depth networking closet with patchpanels and a half-depth 48-port switch.
Jesus Christ I needed all my strength (while standing on a 2 step ladder) to mash that switch in enough to screw the rack ears... Not pleasent in the slightest.
