  • Hey welcome to the hobby!

    We personally have the whole TV on a Vlan, so it can’t acces anything at all. While our server/HA can still send a WOL command to it, and jellyfin can stream our movies to it. I run all of it on top of TrueNas, most as an app or else an VM.

    I have never tried to set something up for YouTube specifically, since that runs on a Chromecast (for now…)

    Let me know how your journey goes


  • U = R x I

    volts (U, probably 19VDC) is constant. The laptop has a resistance ®. This means that the laptop has already dictated the amount of currents (I) that it pulls. You can connect an 100A charger to an phone. The phone dictates howmuch it actually pulling. There is no battery damage/harm in doing so.

    If you charge a battery at full-speed, It can heat up. This is in the long term bad for (Lithium) batteries. That’s where the myth might come from?

    *fixed formula order


  • For USB-C: Tiny little side note here, there are some cheap small-size adapters that overheat. Some adapters thotle down, but some rare ones just blink power on and off, which is bad for lithium batteries.

    Search a good brand, preferably reviewed, and GAN-type. Spend a bit more than the cheapest. Check if it has the right protocol (probably Power Delivery at some voltage) to make sure it charges at a normal speed.

    For a DC charger like OP asked. Match polarity, match Voltage. And at least match the current/watage to make sure you can charge in a reasonable amount of time











  • You need more checkboxes on the start side.

    Make the start small “let me clean the house for only 5 minutes, that ain’t that much time anyway”.

    Make the steps smaller “I will redo the garden one tile at a time, so I will do one right now so I have done one today”

    You don’t need to finish when you start a new task. Just make any progress
