I started hosting audiobookshelf since Jellyfin was pretty clunky for audiobooks.

Her first point stands wrt SpaceX. Turning this into a discussion about her experience on the topic makes her point even more valid. Last time I checked people didn’t need to be a nobel laurate in a field to make a valid point.

I use Tiny media manager to get tv show episode and movie info like fan art, actors and show synopsis and organize my movies, shows, music and audiobooks I get from CDs, DVDs, Blu Rays and downloads. Sonarr and Radarr only snatch files from torrents, and not the rest of the info that is needed for offline mode

Thanks for this. I was looking to get away from iplant and Google lens.

For me docker runs my software in independent containers like jellyfin. For me it helps with migrating the software to different computers, operating systems and os upgrades without completely having to reconfigure the software each time.

Not sure about the fuck docker comment. I’m always open to alternatives, not everyone has the same software needs.

I’ve been debating on trying out offense instead of OpenWrt. My server has a dual NIC with one interface going to my modem the other to a wireless access point. Openwrt is a bit clunky as I have to boot it in Virtual box. Any difference between PFsense and opensense?

I always get hungry when I play pixel dungeon! What an addictive grind!

Adding the following that i have not seen mentioned yet:

Docker - I literally run most of my server programs with docker now. Home Assistant, Jellyfin, and many others.

Tiny Media Manager that I use to scraper and organize my media library

Tiny Tiny RSS to combine my news sites into one aggregator. I actually saw this post on it since Lemmy has RSS feeds!

Openwrt I run as my home router.

I2P but it’s still pretty clunky.

Nomachine I use as a remote desktop client.

RocketDock I still use on my windows desktop after windows removed the programs toolbar.

ImageJ/Fiji I use for image processing, it’s from the NIH, with a bunch of Java plugins.

Gluetun I use to run my vpn client

Kodi for multimedia

Syncthing is awesome for home devices backups like phone pictures and videos and computer documents that can be version controlled. I also use Local Send app to share files between phones and computers in the house.

Jellyfin is awesome, I also use it to serve my music and audio books. It’s a bit more quirky than plex but I like that it’s not tied to some company server in any way.

Home Assistant is awesome! It’s the only way to control your house without giving out all your data to Amazon, Google or apple.

Good. Guy had the evidence of his massage parlor escapades destroyed by claiming that someone else who is innocent on these tapes may have their reputation harmed. He should be in the scumbag billionare who is above the law Hall of Fame instead.

While I get the sentiment about Watson, I think this is a result of bad ownership and management by the Browns organization. It’s similar to the Jets situation, the Raiders situation, and the Lions situation prior to 2021.

As a Lions fan, this gives me flashbacks, I just feel bad for the Jets fans. It’s such a fucked up ownership and management situation.

Jets owner is trying the same drugs that his starting QB takes to come to that conclusion.!

Well he lasted a couple seasons longer than Antonio Brown at least!

I’m guessing this is due to Miller choking his pregnant girlfriend last year amongst other things. Not the first time that these two have been at it, and the girlfriend has dropped the charges each time after calling the cops. Great player, not a great look, seems like a pretty toxic relationship from the various police visits needed to intervene when things spiral out of control.

I also use an air mouse with keyboard Like this

I run a linux HTPC that runs Kodi so once it’s configured, you can just use the arrow buttons to navigate, not just the air mouse.

It’s like being a patient gamer! If you can wait long enough, you can get what you want at a cheaper price, with all the DLC season add ons!

Agreed, and the main reason for 26 episodes per season was to get a show for rerun syndication as quickly as possible which needs 100 total episodes. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/100_episodes

This caused a lot of high stress during filming to be able to to produce that many episodes in such little time.

With streaming, companies like Netflix and HBO/Max are no longer looking to sydicate, so they can produce at their own pace a bit more. It sucks for the audience that is used to more shows, but I rather have a bunch of mini series that have a beginning, middle and end, than dragged out abominations like The Walking Dead. Shows like Breaking Bad that have both have always been very rare.
