Highly depends on the type of game. For First person shooters, 120+ fps is a must. I skipped the more recent CoDs because I couldn't get them to run at that target consistently enough on my PC without turning them into blurry DLSS smear.

Racing games, where motion is typically always going in one direction with only smooth direction changes, a lower framerate is fine (like 60 to 80), although the added smoothness from high framerate is obviously still nice.

Slower paced or turn based games I'm fine with going as low as 40 FPS, as long as it's consistent without drops and frame pacing issues.

What about VRR on mutli-monitor setups?

Am I to believe that cheaters would install Linux, just use a cheat in a game?

You seem to severely underestimate the extreme lengths cheaters will go to in order to cheat. Not only are modern cheats very expensive (like 20+ dollars per WEEK subscriptions), but the ones that are the hardest to detect require a second PC connected to the main PC using a direct memory access module so that the cheat can read the game's memory in a way that is impossible to notice for the Anti-Cheat running on the game PC. On top of that they spend time and money on stolen/farmed accounts, spoofing hardware and phone numbers, and buying entirely new PCs when they get detected and banned.

Installing Linux is a tiny obstacle compared to all the other shit these losers are willing to go through in order to cheat.

They banned Wordington?? What's next, Clamworks? Losercity?

Twitch is veeeeryyy slooowlyyy transitioning to AV1 for their livestreams, maybe that'll work better than h.264 whenever it's ready.

Sony would rather flush hundreds of millions of dollars down the drain that was Concord than give fans one of the easiest layups imaginable by putting Bloodborne on PS5 and PC

This is the one I bought, it was discounted to 220€ when I grabbed it.

So far I haven't needed mass storage. The Mini Pc itself has a 1TB nvme drive, which I could expand upon since there's space for another 2.5 inch drive inside the case, plus USB ports for external drives. Obviously not close to a real NAS, but again, so far I have not had any need for that.

I bought a cheap mini PC with an Intel N100 processor as my entry into self hosting, so far it absolutely crushes every task I've thrown at it

I disagree, I think this ban sets a bad precedent. What governments should do is pass stricter data protection laws, as well as banning the many addictive design patterns that manipulate people into scrolling for hours and hours. For example infinite scroll. Imagine how much less people would doom scroll if they had to manually click "yes, I want to continue to page 7 of my twitter feed"

Here's hoping there will be third party firmware for my A1 mini some time soon... Until such a thing arrives, I'm just not going to update.

Yeah, they've said they want a generational leap in power without affecting battery life. Also, Valve makes money from people buying games on Steam, Lenovo is a hardware manufacturer that makes money from people buying their hardware, so they're going to release a new model every year or so.
