  1. I would take as much ram a possible there is no such thing as too enough ram... especially if you can't upgrade later In my experience I would not take less than 16gb, if possible 32.
  2. Yes as long as the video is in h264... and on WAN i m streaming up to 4k... my server is not in the same place as most of the devices. Probably it will save some power as it has way less overhead than windows, but you re right mainly transcoding will be faster Yes i ll do that (and probably just transcode all media when i m importing it to h264) and then check if a GPU is needed ? thx for your advice
  3. The thing is more to stream like to an iPhone which is using cellular network... you need to transcode depending on the network anyways Actually we have 2 4k TVs all together, but like I said, it s more about transcoding because of limited bandwidth (and device capability) Currently: I have an i7 4930k (6 core) CPU with a GTX 1070ti (but that GPU will come into another system, because i ll use it for gaming on windows) I ll update my plex server anyways I want to switch to linux, saves quite some electricity (less overhead and no UI)
  4. Most of my current media is in h264, i now started using h265 4k media which is of course hurting. Clients are mostly iOS devices, Chrome and Apple TV (and some smart tv os)... we are a family of 6 people and so at some times I get 3-4 transcoding sessions
  5. But also then, probably an Nvidia 10xx series would be the way to go...
  6. Thats right, this would also be a solution...
  7. Would need to support 3 4k h265 transcodes. I m switching to 4k media and currently have a load of 3-4 simultaneous streams.
  8. I m currently thinking about buying a Quadro P2000 I won't be using it for mining either
  9. Hi all I m updating my plex media center pc and switching to ubuntu for that headless system. I m interested in a decent GPU for hardware accelerated transcoding (no gaming at all). What kind of GPU should I consider? I m not on a tight budget, but have no experience with GPUs on Ubuntu in general and know idea what to look for. Any advice for that?
  10. You benefit from the platform, so for me it's reasonable to pay something from it. As far as I know, apple takes 15% from in app purchases, which is in my opinion a fair amount! Every platform has it's costs, developing, hosting, (and convenience for the user)... it's not only an administration fee, but a payment to the iOS ecosystem... it's fair to pay for that! You benefit as a developer from the Platform, so you pay your share. It's like paying taxes, you benefit from the hole system, so you pay your share... Doesn't matter if it's on iOS, Android, steam, windows market place...
  11. You should use the prepare method <?php $statement = $this->conn->prepare($this->sql); $statement->execute(); return $statement->fetchAll(\PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
  12. Completely agree with that. Just pass the data in the promise to the function. So you don't even need global variables fetch(url).then( response => { renderVideos(response.data) }) function renderVideos(data){ ... // Register Click handler after insertion here // My example used jquery as i thought you used it before }
  13. And by the way, the mainVideoID could be undefined if the request takes more than 1s... why don't you just call that function in the promise?
  14. $('#youtube_playlist').on('click','.individual_list_item',function(e){ e.preventDefault(); $element = $(e.currentTarget); console.log($element.data('key')); }); Should do it
  15. Just run cd /path/to/your/project composer install on the server
  16. Yes, but those companies have redundant systems with servergrade HW and an IT team Linus does this kind of stuff more as an experiment in my opinion (as far as I know you are talking about the 7 Gamers 1 pc video right?) and he just happens to have a lot of hardware laying around You re way better of just building/buying 3 systems... it will be cheaper in the end
  17. It sounds like you want to use this setup for production, right? I would strongly discourage you to do that. If this system fails, all 3 of you can't work. I would build or buy 3 Individual systems. When you consider all the time you will need to invest in such a machine, maintenance and stuff, you will come of way cheaper with dedicated machines If it's for fun, or you just want to try something, then do it. But if you need to rely on this machine, I wouldn't do it
  18. I assume you use PHP 7 right? Mysql has been removed as of PHP 7.0, use mysqli or PDO
  19. Hi, I have an offer for an GTX 1070 for around 200 Bucks (Gainward GTX1070, 8GB GDDR5). I actually have a GTX 780 in my system. I think it would be kind of a big update. My Question, does it make any sense to upgrade only the GPU or will the CPU become a bottleneck then? I don't game a lot, when I do, I mainly steam to my NVIDIA Shield in my living room over Gigabit ethernet and I play games like the witcher 3. My specs: - i7 4930k @ 3.4 Ghz (actually running at the base clockspeed, but I overclocked it to 4Ghz easily) - 32 Gb Ram - Asus Rampage IV gene Mobo
  20. I completely agree here with you I agree, tho for my usage, I usually only have one or max 2 vms running and use docker too but I still like to use the terminal quiet often, also for other tasks on my mac, like quickly editing a file, just having native PHP or whatever, ... I have to admit, since quiet some time I havent looked into developing on windows machines, as I am really happy with os x and linux Here again, I m not sure what is all included in that price. Anyway, if it's just around 500$ I would still argue, if you are seriously into development (or rely on your device), it doesn't matter... you amortize such a device in 2-3 years max. Will make a difference about ~200$ per year, which should not limit your choice by any means. I really value great support and just being able to go to the apple store in my town and let it be repaired in a really short time is gold to me and again I don't know about the service of other laptops as I don't have any experience. So this could also be the case for other laptop manufacturers, I only want to say, this is something to consider when buying a laptop you will rely on In the end, it is just personal preference
  21. I agree you don't need one, but having a unix based system is a benefit in my opinon (or for what I do, it's definitely a benefit). And I just love the ecosystem by now, will be hard for me to change to a windows laptop. I term of price, it doesn't really matter to me as I use them over several years (I had a 2012 MBPr for over 5 years) usually without any problems. I am okey to pay a premium for the good service I always got. For sure, you get awesome laptops from other brands, which may even be cheaper for the same performance. I didn't really check the prices lately, but I think for the same design, performance and build quality, we are anyway speaking of expensive hardware in more or less the same price category (+/- 300$). But those are only my preferences
  22. From what I can tell, there should be no problem. Laravel Collection implements ArrayAccess and the variable $service is a string. So calling the in array function should work fine. But I completely agree:
  23. MacBook Pro Retina 15" 2017 I personally always use mac laptops. It's not budget for sure, but the build qualitiy is awesome and for web development, mac osx is great.
  24. You can also use intersect $intersection = $value->service->intersect($request->service); if( $intersection->notEmpty() ){ $ok = true; }
