Building a Plex server. Spending hundreds on blurays, ripping them, and haven’t watched a single one
Try the library, might save you a buck if they have digital media.
In my experience my local library doesn’t carry 4k
I run a Plex server for my immediate family. I definitely use it the least.
The fun is in building and curation for us, I suppose.
My child-self would have died from pure excitement at the mere prospect of getting their hands on a RPi filled with emulators/games. Now I’m just an old fart and cant appreciate shit anymore.

That’s why my projects tend to be things that end up being more like art pieces or something I will actually use.
I’m definitely aware I don’t have enough time for classic video games.
I even went to the trouble of putting mine in a mini snes style case with functional power and reset buttons. Still have it ready to go…in the garage 😅
Play a game and you’ve played a game once. But prepare for yourself the means of playing games, and you have the potential to play them infinitely.
Got a PC built, have done nothing but install games for the last few nights. Who needs to sleep anyway? I’ll get around to playing one eventually…
Ha ha!
I use my Pi as a dev kit!
I really wanna try building a MintyPi but I know damn well I would use it for a day then set it on a shelf forever
Just think of the building process as the game. Lots of people build things for enjoyment. Nothing wrong with that.
Oh thank god I thought it was just me 😮💨
Me, porting OpenBOR games to new platforms:
This is how it always is with tinkerers. We enjoy setting stuff up and tweaking to perfection more than actually ‘using’ it.
We also spend days writing scripts and programs that will save only hours at best in the span of our entire lifetimes, and feel happy doing it.
And we’re also the same people who spend about 20 hours messing around with getting the perfect combination of mods on Skyrim without even ‘playing’ a single real minute of the game.
