“find somewhere to stuff it” instructions unclear…

That’s probably the plan, though I see an Intel a380 low-profile for all of $100 that might be useful for some encode/decode tasks

Worth checking, though the 3U isn’t super-spacious inside

I really liked having a login screen, so I switched to Mandrake from Windows 95

I’ve clicked in to see a movie trailer, which is basically an ad, and had to watch an ad before I could watch the ad

Best of the solutions I tried (steam link for quest, ALVR, oculus link)

Yes, works best of the solutions I’ve tried
