Nah, that was a few years ago, its 50% on every thing now, literally looking at the price on aliexpress as I write this, R$29 earphone with R$14 tax

Even products bellow 50 USD are getting the 50% tax now, and xeons dont have igpu, I prefer to buy an intel with igpu to do hardware encoding/decoding, more efficient and I heard it gets the job done really well (jellyfin says to absolutely not buy AMD APUs for hardware decoding btw). For hosting I actually have pots 80 and 443 open on my router so Ive been using caddy and duckdns with no issues.

Which hard drives have you bought btw?

Not an option, a friend sent me a box with a few snacks and even that got taxed

List instead of array, dict instead on object (tho it also has objects)

a laptop would extremely limiting as far as storage goes, I prefer not having to add a NAS later. Thanks for the info tho
