Download

Go to https://store.rg-adguard.net.
Search for the HEVC Video Extensions from Device Manufacturer (Microsoft.HEVCVideoExtension) app by entering the following store URL into the search box and then clicking the ✔ button.
```
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/hevc-video-extensions-from-device-manufacturer/9n4wgh0z6vhq
```
- Do not use the normal HEVC Video Extensions app URL, because that can't play HEVC videos in Windows Media Player for some inscrutable reason.
Download the AppxBundle file for the version you want.
- You may have to right click › Save Link As because the URL scheme is http, not https, if your browser is set to enforce HTTPS-only mode.

If it tries to save as a filename that's just a GUID, you may copy the correct .AppxBundle filename and save it as that instead.

Kubernetes and Arm

Getting rke and Rancher setup to run kubernetes on arm is interesting. There is no official support yet via rancher, although there is interest and some work done towards those efforts. This is my attempt at getting a cluster of 3 Pis (2 3Bs and 1 3B+) provisioned and registered to a rancher 2 server.

Prep

I've successfully completed this both with Hypriot OS 1.9.0 and the arm64 builds https://github.com/DieterReuter/image-builder-rpi64 Both times I used the same basic cloud-init setup

[LINUX] Factorio Headless Server Guide

So, with credit to the Factorio wiki and cbednarski's helpful gist, I managed to eventually setup a Factorio headless server. Although, I thought the process could be nailed down/simplified to be a bit more 'tutorialised' and also to document how I got it all working for my future records.

The specific distro/version I'm using for this guide being Ubuntu Server 16.04.1 LTS. Although, that shouldn't matter, as long as your distro supports systemd (just for this guide, not a Factorio headless requirement, although most distros use it as standard now). The version of Factorio I shall be using is 0.14.20, although should work for any version of Factorio 0.14.12 and higher.

Just a note to newcomers: If there are any issues with the installation steps, people in the comments are doing a good job
