Personally, I use Kodi for that. It works very well with minimal keyboard and no mouse (though it can handle both), so much so that I've run it for years using only an IR remote.
Just a regular everyday normal muthafucka.

BMW on the line for you, sir.
I've used both APC (via apcupsd) and EATON (via nut), both work great.
From the top of my head, compared to ext4: RAM use and the ability to shrink an FS if necessary. Oh, also I've used an EXT FS driver on a Windows host, but I've never seen one for XFS.
My daily driver is still a Dell XPS 13, 10th gen Intel i7, 16gb RAM and 500gb (nvm) SSD. I bought it referbed. I'm running Fedora 38 (Workstation) currently. Everything works but the fingerprint sensor (which I don't care about). It runs for hours as long as I'm doing "normal" stuff like browsing and writing. It runs so long that I get tired before it does. The only time the runtime suffers is if I'm cranking the cores (encoding, compiling, etc). No voodoo required, it just runs this way out of the box. Even the onboard firmware gets updated by fwupd.
The only oddity (to me) is that it's USB-C only (no A ports) so I carry a small dock if I need to plugin a normal USB device or network cable, but that's rare for me.
I did too until I tried to use them. They lack several features that rooted containers have, and a lot of howtos take for granted. They're fine for very simple containers, but expect pain an suffering.
Windows still got 99 problems, but that bitch ain't one.
A named volume for the config directory for one.
'dd' works, but I prefer 'shred'. It does a DoD multi-pass shred by default, so I usually use 'shred -vn1z /dev/(drive)'. That gives output, does a one-pass random write followed by one-pass zero of the disk. More than that just wastes time, and this kinda thing takes hours on large spinners. I also use 'smartmontools' to run SMART tests against my drives regularly to check their health.
True, but SQLite is not recommended in production settings, and is quite often the source of Nextcloud slowdowns, in my experience. A dedicated DB is the first thing I recommend for a production Nextcloud instance.
Oh and to be clear, in this instance, "production" means "people depend on this", be that your family group, team/department, fraternal order, church group, etc. as opposed to "I'm just playing with this thing."
Slackware 1.2, because it came on a CD in the back of a fat paperback manual I got at Barnes and Noble. It was only later that I learned what a distro is.
Currently on Fedora with a Frankenstein desktop of my own concoction.
Just wait till they bring it back, now powered by Chat GPT!
This is the way. I went from 6 low-end 16gb flash drives to 1 high-end 256gb Ventoy drive and it has been wonderful. I have yet to run out of space with 17 different Linux ISOs on there. I update Ventoy every month or so.
You will probably get better answers from !jellyfin@lemmy.ml or !jellyfin@lemmy.world
Oh, my bad.
The two benefits to XFS that I've ever seen are that it has no inode limit like ext4 (which prevents the FS shrink). The other is that it seems to handle simultaneous I/O better than ext4 does; think very active database volumes and datastores.
If you're replacing all of O365 (excellent choice, BTW), I do recommend Nextcloud with a few plugins. I use it specifically for sharing contacts and calendars among my family.
LibreOffice is my desktop word processor and spreadsheet, and I use it more than OnlyOffice, but if you need two people in the same file at the same time, OnlyOffice is a better option.
Is there a way yet to in-place upgrade or is it still only "flash a new SD"?
It probably didn't. What's probably happening is that when Debian starts, it loads power management, while being in the BIOS/UEFI still has everything at max.
Only if you've got it cranking all day. I've got a couple of Tiny (they're Micro, which is the same thing) systems that are silent when idle and nearly silent when running less than a load avg of 5. It's only if I try to spin up a heavy, CPU-bound process that their singular fan spins fast enough to be noticable.
So don't use one as a Mining rig, but if you want something that runs x64 workloads at 9-20 watts continuously, they're pretty good.
Not really. Windows only supports FAT and NTFS filesystems natively. There was an old ext-fs driver back in the day, but I have not looked for one in a decade or more. There might be one out there already.
The deal with case-insensative support is likely from Windows users who are annoyed that Readme.md, readme.md, and README.MD are separate files on ext4 but the same file in FAT or NTFS. UNIX and Linux come from a school of thought that allowed you to do things like use different case in filenames.
Take it off the charger and see if you get the claimed battery life. Maybe you will, or maybe your 3+ hours of battery time runs out in less than one.
You mean besides Fedora?
If you're willing to go that route, check out Zabbix and Icinga2 as well. They're compatible with Nagios checks but the user interface is better.
I use Jellyfin as a backend for my Kodi boxes (I have 3, and JF keeps them in sync). I used to have a YouTube plugin, but YT broke that this year.
If your requirement is a 3.5" drive bay, then maybe check out some of the SFF form factors, like an HP Elitedesk SFF 800 (not the mini/micro). It has the same hardware as the mini, takes the same amount of power, but has a space for a 3.5" disk and a slimline optical disc. It's bigger than a NUC, but smaller than a tower.
I use ssmtp as well for a simple sendmail replacement. It takes over the sendmail command, doesn't open any ports. You configure it for the domain you want and tell it what server to send everything to and it works.
You should be fine for PCI compliance as long as you are on a current release (Been there already, a few times). Also AlmaLinux already has an Announce mailing list (announce@lists.almalinux.org) where they release update notifications (including Security releases) just like CentOS did.
Really? Which ones?
I haven't had nine hours uninterrupted time in quite a while, but I've done six to seven with plenty left in the tank. I've kinda stopped measuring it because of that.
Wait, you object to their feely-distributable firmware updates? Seriously? Without those, your CPU is vulnerable to exploits and known hacks.
If you're (going to continue) using Office 365, you can use Evolution as an Outlook replacement. Evolution EWS rides OWA and ActiveSync protocols to give you email, calendars, contacts, notes, etc. I've used it for over a decade. It works very well once setup.
As for Android, there are several, including Outlook for Android (which is bloated and slow, being a Microsoft product), which I am forced to use because of our company SSO config.
If you're looking for an Office 365 replacement, I use Nextcloud for my personal stuff. It has files, contacts, calendars, notes, etc. If you install the OnlyOffice plugin, you get multi-user online document and spreadsheet editing. I use the DAVx5 connector to get (shared and personal) contacts, calendars, and tasks in my Android phone. It integrates into the environment so all calendars and contacts apps work automatically. It also automatically backs up pics/vids I take with my phone automatically.
