how can i set pic related as my plymouth theme?
I'm getting a Fire TV for Christmas.
I want to use Plex for chinese cartoons, so mkv files.
Pic related is my toaster.
Will it work out?
>>45619818
guess it will
>>45619839

I just hope my toaster can be a server without constant buffering.
>>45620070
i guess it will work. do you use mpv for playback? try it if you use another one and it wont work.

I didn't quite understand.
I have MPC-HC and mpv and they both play videos well on the machine itself. I just have no knowledge of how it will perform as a Plex server.

Yes, but it would be a long time before you ever got to that point. Don't underestimate how much there is to learn.

>>45621527
Use it as a server.

If you don't see the point, don't buy one, simple.
They are used when you need to interface with something or control something.
>>45621531
I don't know how, but my approach to solving your problem would be to first try using curl for something simple; perhaps just reading the page from top to bottom, then start finding the images, and then getting the links.
>>45621527
You need to know/be willing to learn Linux. That's it. You can do anythin you can imagine doing with a low-power, small linux machine.

Uh, I'm already getting the full page with curl. I'm greping imgur so all the imgur links are highlighted in the terminal. What I'm having trouble with is cutting out the directories of the images.

I'm currently running Ubuntu on my server, where I host two websites, owncloud, and some other random stuff for fun and learning.
But I run arch as my main OS, and want to install this on my server as well. I could backup the files, take it down, reinstall and move the files, but that'll give too much downtime which I obviously don't want.
What's my best solution? Is it possible to shrink the partition, make a new ext4, install arch on that one, move over the files, reboot, delete the original partition (but keep the boot-partition), and the expand the new partition? All this with only one reboot?

C-can I mount it on a drone, use it to seed torrents and evade the government/botnet?
>>45621777
Yes. You could use the pins or a USB-interface to control the drone (both sensors and motors).
You could set it up as a server to seed torrents.
You could set it up as a onion-router, or even exit-point.
All this and more has a plethora of tutorials online.

What would you guys recommend for a drawing tablet for under $100?
I was thinking the wacom intuos with the multitouch
Every single game I play runs at 60+fps at mostly maximum settings. Every single one except fucking Minecraft which plays at 60 with a bunch of drops while others with my same build do it at 120+fps with no drops. I'm using a 750 ti and an fx-6300. Is it something with drivers? I just went into MSCONFIG and made it so I use all of my cores, that doesn't count as overclocking does it? I'm using the stock fan so it's a little worrying for me.

it wipes the cache. the system caches some files in order to speed up accessing them. if this partition becomes big, it'll be as slow as fetching the data directly. so wiping won't hurt you

the problem is that hi10p doesn't have hardware support, so you need to decode it on the cpu
so you have two options:
a. make an htpc with a modern desktop cpu that can do hi10p
b. download shows in 8bit or transcode the 10bit ones to 8bit

from what ive heard: virtual workspaces integrated into the shell, a package manager and general performance increase(supossedly). the package manager looks interesting but currently it does not support a lot of the things necessary to make it good like many of the linux managers, such as managing dependencies. might change in the future though, im hoping so anyway.
