@stetech @Xraygoggles yes if you're able to either configure your router to tell tge tv to use it (DHCP), or you can set your TV's network settings directly. adguard probably have guides on how to do it

@miss_demeanour @Semi_Hemi_Demigod Now you'll have an open bottle of port in your cabinet for 10 years until you fancy another glass or a recipe calls for it

@muntedcrocodile @crony I used to run Exchange and have had various others for my 2 person house. Sometimes overkill. These days I don't think I'd bother running mail at home, even on reliable hardware, a decent connection and with a static IP. Hassles with getting on/off blacklists even with all DKIM, SPF etc being in place are things I don't want to deal with these days.
My incoming mails are a couple of bank notifications, monitoring alerts and notes from schools and sports clubs. A lot of system admin for not much actual use.
I might revisit it once the winter evenings come in.

@echodot @Redex68 off top of my head, script generation. making content more readable. dictating a brain dump while walking and having it spit out a cohesive summary.

it's all about the prompt you put in. shit in/shit out. And making sure you check/understand what it spits out. and that sometimes it's garbage.

@django @ThePrimitive I once got a similar "you've opted out of company support" for ordering and installing additional RAM in my laptop from my department budget.
I lol'd in 8GB

@Tangent5280 @spongeborgcubepants I think the days of worrying about SSDs failing like that during its expected lifespan are over for all practical applications.

@MrMobius @hanke depends what you're doing. A Raspberry Pi can be surprisingly powerful. Can run NAS, websites, proxies, things like NextCloud, PiHole.
Cheaper than paying someone for hosting a small server? Maybe. But there's pros and cons of both.
