Hi, Al, the co-host of Tuxjam here, I share some personal insights and then proceed to discuss the following episodes.

Here is the command I utilize to set up Samba as a service, eliminating the need for automatic console login:

sudo apt install samba samba-common-bin

Run the following command to restart the service after you have edited the Samba config file.

sudo systemctl restart smbd

Upon listening to this episode, I acquired a ThinkCentre M700 Tiny from eBay which came barebone, equipped it with an i5-6400T (also from eBay), and 16GB of RAM from CEX in the UK. I share my experience of running it with KDE Neon with Plasma 6.1, and after we tested Ultramarine.

Next, I discuss my media server, which is an HP laptop powered by an 8th generation Intel® Core™ i7-8650U processor, equipped with 16GB of RAM, and running Jellyfin.

Finally I discuss my plans to acquire a ThinkCentre M720q, which can support up to two drives, including a 2.5" HDD/SSD and an M.2 SSD. I also share my intentions to install Proxmox on this system.
