It’s not technically dedicated. It made sense to combine it as a media / TV computer.

My friend and I got an old optiplex and upgraded it with a burner so we can make CDs. It’s actually quite nice to have a physical medium for music in the car, and make mixes for different moods that you can switch between. We also know some people with older cars that only have CD and radio or the Bluetooth sucks so we’ll make CDs for them too. Tons of fun and you can buy a usb CD / DVD burner for like $10 or $15 and CD-Rs are fairly cheap.

We’re getting brighter headlights

Fourthed and fifthed since we’re doing two now I guess.

Are they no longer lithium ion? Seriously asking.

It could have the benefit of being usable for longer as batteries degrade, especially if you can cap the charging to 80% or something to slow down wear.

Nah, that wouldn’t. But if you connected just the hot line (right eye of the outlet smiley face) that would do it. Wouldn’t recommend it because you could kill them by electrocution or kill even more people with a fire.

Link?

I used to but then I switched out the server I was doing backups to and have been thinking “I’ll get to it later” for many months. If anything goes wrong I’m screwed. I’ll get to it later ¯_(ツ)_/¯
