Does the docker container have gpu access for transcoding?

Starting with a consumer NAS is a good spot, they come with a lot of upfront features that are designed to be easier to use for someone who isn’t already familiar with them. I have a synology and it did all the things you describe without issue (other than struggling with transcoding video in real time) and eventually graduated the heavier tasks like media and proper VM hosting to external secondhand mini PCs while still using the NAS as a network drive to store the data. The NAS itself includes docker and an easy to use repository browser that I use for things like pinhole or WLAN controller software, it has an onboard torrent client (which can use RSS and regex to automate downloads), and it has some other light hosting services, which it’s quite capable of. Starting with “just” the NAS and adding external devices as your use case shifts is always an option. Keep in mind that the best way of upgrading a NAS’ storage is leaving a bay open and upgrading disks one by one without having it do a “hard” rebuild from parity data, so 4 bays at least is a good starting point.

If you want to start with just an off the shelf NAS as an all in one device I would recommend making sure it either has or can take additional RAM (no such thing as too much), an NVME cache (more optional but nice) and an intel processor (quicksync transcoding, though the low end cpus will definitely still struggle with trying to turn 4K into 1080 for a stream). I’d be willing to bet most of the consumer NAS devices will all support docker at this point and have similar built in feature sets. Some of the newer models will support onboard 2.5gbe which is nice but probably unnecessary for a single user or family.

External access would be more of a job for your router/firewall which would use PAT to forward connections to your internal network, so that’s outside the scope of your NAS unless you’re building a true all in one box that acts as the central hub of your entire home network.

This almost certainly depends on where you are, I can reliably get normal prime shipping or even same and next day for 99% of non-specialty items

Not that Amazon making service worse for some is acceptable, but that it’s not universal

Most gas stations will sell small gas cans for exactly this reason

Generally higher octane works fine in most cars but high performance engines not configured to handle either type may knock with lower octane fuel (due to premature ignition with the higher compression ratio), and will generally put out (slightly) less power regardless due to timing adjustments the engine will make to accommodate the change.

Putting premium in a regular car that isn’t designed with higher compression ratios in mind is really just a waste of money.

The concept of “simultaneous” breaks down over relativistic distances too so that’s equally fucked

The French get a bad rep, they riot for anti-worker bullshit, they helped the US win the revolution,and they didn’t go along with dubya’s stupid Iraq war

Not software but I once powered off an entire network node by accident, the power distribution was 48v dc and the breaker panel in the rectifier had a retainer bar to hold in the breakers that was abîme the toggles. The toggles did not resist being turned off particularly well and after unscrewing one side of the bar, the whole thing pivoted down, cleanly shutting off every single breaker in the row.

Some algorithms might be able to be written as formulas but generally no. An algorithm is a repetition of steps to achieve a desired result and does not have a fixed way of representing itself because it could make different decisions along the way in different situations.

A sorting algorithm is not a formula, for example. Formulas are mathematical or logical expressions that can be evaluated.
