   Somehow I remember Intel processors being as hot as the surface of the sun, but this one seems to be doing quite well. Maybe because it's a low-power laptop processor... Or maybe because it's in the coldest room of the house. Or because it's idle. Maybe all of them combined.

     @thomy2000 Unfortunately, Jellyfin is proprietary software as it's written in C# as is also not appropriately licensed.
     
     If those readings are correct, that CPU is going quite poorly, as clearly the room is <12°C and even though the CPU is idle, some cores are >10°C hotter than the room?
     
     Intel made CPUs with acceptable power consumption in the past (for example netbook Atom CPUs drew 2W), but even those ran hot as the chipset drew >15W.

     The #Jellyfin adventure goes on, now running on a dedicated home server (and no longer on my desktop which is off half the time). I've been wanting to get a home server for a long time but never felt like the investment in the hardware was worth it. Jellyfin changed that and I'm so excited to see what this server can be used for. For now it's only a media server, but that will change very soon. Maybe #Pihole, #nginx, #HomeAssistant...

     (It's running #Arch btw)
