some trivia about the non-fanless mini pc:

The Music Server runs on an IBM ThinkCentre called "mediacomp" (running NixOS). It also has a static IP at 192.168.0.83.

Music Queue

There's a jukebox like music queue at music.xaibatsu.com. The source code for this application is at git.sr.ht/~buzzert/musicqueue.

Web Browser

The music server is running headless, but a containerized web browser for generic music playing is available via the reverse proxy behind the firewall at music.xai. The data in this browser is persistent.

AirPlay

Mediacomp supports AirPlay 2 via shairport-sync. It advertises "Xaibatsu Office Area" via Zeroconf.

Other Access

The computer is at mediacomp.localdomain. You can log in using the Standard Credentials. (username: xaibatsu)

Issues

The GPD Pocket overheats when exposed to direct sunlight and in clamshell mode. Currently, the computer is protected using a piece of cardboard and stuffed behind the left speaker in the office area.
