WOW. Sleep and rest are mistakes. TIL

God.Dammit.

Well our legal system is fucking done I guess.

Scottish Meth is a helluva drug.

There goes the internet.

You're asking for a lot of different things that don't align, so instead of trying to guess what you need, let me just throw a few things out there:

• if you want transcoding that isn't constantly tied to GPU, you want an AMD chip of some sort. If you're trying to be efficient, an APU model.
• you probably want to just merge all your data into a single disk array. Running multiple on one system is pointless and inefficient.
• separate your CPU needs from storage. Like you said, maybe you just need an ultra low power NAS, and then different machine to handle compute.
• skip SSD for any network storage. Yes it's more power efficient, but if you're talking bulk storage, you're wasting resources for smaller volumes where it won't matter if transferred over the network. SSD is good for local-only for the most part.

Yes, but he THINKS he is.

He's a big believer in the whole "keeping people on drugs isn't the fix" kind of thinking. It's short-sighted and ignorant of the fact that a lot of people on them have a net benefit to function in society.

What he is proposing is something far more stupid akin to "Well look at me. I've never needed these drugs, and I'm totally fine. WTF, people?"

If you want a country that is doing the proper work to stop jumping to long-term prescriptions as problem solvers, I'm all for that. DO NOT confuse that with these dumb shit he's suggesting though.

The guy just believes every weird crackpot theory against everything. It's crazy.

The issue is more likely to be your port selection and UDP being discarded on networks with captive portals that generally only allow certain ports and traffic. Try using some other common UDP service ports like 53/DNS if not already in use, or maybe 5060/SIP, or even other common VPN ports.

Unless they're running L7 hardware in the hotels, I doubt they're doing any kind of packet inspection.

It's more important to get that dmesg output AFTER an event happens, but before a reboot. What you're running doesn't matter much unless you have live metrics of their behavior or resources.

If this is a slip up in some sort of voter fraud scheme...
