Sure, the sky is the limit. You could also just get a motherboard, processor, and power supply, plug everything in and shove it in whatever container you want.
The biggest thing to worry about is DIMM vs SODIMM. The latter is much smaller, and probably what most mini PCs will use. So if you have full sized DIMM RAM, you might have trouble finding a mini PC that will work.
And even if it is the right size, you'll still want to make sure that your motherboard supports your specific RAM clock speeds.
Plenty of barebones mini PC's that you can get for relatively cheap (under $200 or even close to $100). "Barebones" is a good keyword to search for because that means it doesn't include RAM and a drive.
Look for an N100 or N200 processor if you want something that's very small and power efficient (but it won't be powerful enough for many games). Or, look for whatever fits your budget.
Edit: Oh! And make sure whatever you get is compatible with your RAM! What type of RAM do you have?
Sure, a browser minus Flash, but it was still a real browser. Most of the web functioned without Flash. And none of the competition even had anything close. It was such a revolutionary product that the iPhone didn't even HAVE competition until Android got its shit together, which took a couple years.
A monopoly is inherently abusive. It abuses centralized power to gain more power. But I would argue that Apple built their monopoly "honestly" from the ground up, and from day one the rules haven't changed. Google started with an open platform, and sneakily changed the rules and made deals to get their monopoly.
Both are objectively bad. But Google's method was more open to legal scrutiny, in hindsight.
It literally created the modern smartphone market. The Palm Pilots and Blackberries of the day couldn't compare: the iPhone had a FULL BROWSER. It was insane. The team developing Android saw the iPhone and had a real "holy shit" moment, they had to go back to the drawing board and completely start over in order to compete.
I would guess that you need to learn more about Docker usage in general, rather than just looking for a Docker Compose file (which is here, by the way). I'm kind of on a similar journey, and what I've learned so far is that you (usually) can't just copy and paste a Compose script and go. It helps a lot to understand the basics of what you're doing.
Also, I'd like to point out that Overleaf's hosting and pricing options are quite reasonable, especially if you're working for a university or institution: https://www.overleaf.com/user/subscription/plans
I just bought an RX 6600. Far from their most powerful GPU, but it feels good being on Team Red again. Having an AMD processor with an Nvidia GPU made me feel dirty.
They have games for Android already and you actually download the games; you don't stream them. Notice that this article doesn't specify whether these 10 games are for mobile or PC, though....
I never said that everybody needed a fast phone, or even that MOST people need a fast phone. I would agree that most people don't. I was replying to somebody that said their old phone was slow, and informing them that the Fairphone is probably not a solution to that specific issue because of its budget processor. It's not a performance phone; it's an ethical phone that does basic things perfectly fine.
I don't know who you're arguing with, and I don't think you do either.
I can emulate PS2 and GameCube games on my S23. It's pretty great. My S21 struggled with that, so any Fairphone would definitely not be able to do that, as it has significantly less processing power.
No, I just don't have the time to explain the hundred obvious ways that a fast processor might benefit somebody, so I chose a single, INCREDIBLY obvious item near the top of the list for most people, and was hoping that I wouldn't get follow-up idiotic responses like this. But alas!
Lately I've been playing Need For Speed Underground 2 on the AetherSX2 emulator. A Fairphone absolutely cannot do that.
Look bud, I'm not trying to attack Fairphone, you don't need to be defensive. I'm just setting expectations that this is not a phone for people that need a high performance processor. The chipset is low-end, objectively. I'm sure it's fine for people who don't care about that stuff.
Yeah an N100 is overkill, unless you want to use Proxmox to virtualize multiple things. I got an N5105, which is significantly slower, and even THAT is kinda overkill for just running PFSense in a SOHO environment like I'm doing.
