That is a fantastic idea. Wtf how is this not commonplace? Or am I just way behind 😅

And then also the official proton account doubling down on it a day later.

Also Spain has been full force behind chat control. Something something no independence for Catalan?

Nope, syncthing for file syncing things between systems like music and I realized I never really used “cloud” storage.

Do you know if you can still do everything with it? Like atomic already has its own limitations and quirks. I can imagine there are bigger limitations with this.

Like can you install driver-level stuff like tablet drivers, GPU/CPU control, udev rules, etc… I guess I don’t really know the implications of the extra hardening.

Crazy how that doesn’t at all even address the problem of subtitle sync! It just pastes subtitles as-is in there. What if the subtitle files are at a different framerste? What if the subtitles have the wrong starting offset for the media? What if the subtitles have 1-2 mistakes in them as far as timing?

Hence why there are a dozen subtitle syncing tool projects supplementing ffmpeg like ffsubsync, subsync, alass, autosubsync, srtsync, etc…

Using the integrated player. That is the only player option on android TV. On android I am also using the integrated player. If I use the web player, the same UI as the web shows up WITHOUT the subtitle offset option that is in the web player in a web browser. Not sure what the difference could be. Always burning in subtitles isn’t enabled either.

The only thing about jellyfin is the damn subtitles. Subtitle sync is horrible. They added a subtitle offset feature last year which was a good workaround and then removed it a few months ago on androidtv and android. Now the subtitle offset on the web player doesn’t do anything anymore either

Even Subgen generated subtitles, which are pretty perfectly in sync in reality, are sometimes played back at an incorrect speed so it will progressively get more and more out of sync, but there is no way to tell what speed the subtitles are being played at.

Also it just ignores themes a lot of times or only displays themes on the admin console and nowhere else.

That said, jellyfin is still amazing!

I had to physically log into the server (I am not using a VPS) and docker compose -f ... down the container in order for it to be solved. After a downgrade of nextcloud it was solved and the next upgrade I did, didn’t experience the same issue. I ended up ditching nextcloud anyway because after an update ~8-12 months ago, the login page has never loaded since, so it can’t be used. I found out I rarely used it anyway.

Hey, I had a similar thing happen to me. It turns out the faulty container brought down my entire LAN network. The reason you can’t ssh in is likely because your router is stuck at 100% usage trying to figure it out.

At least that is what happened with my old Archer A7 and damn nextcloud.

Crazy enough, I have everything going that I want to on my server!

• *arr suite and jellyfin
• traefik reverse proxy with crowdsec + bouncer for some sites (e.g. not documents or media)
• paperless-ngx for documents
• immich for photos
• leantime to manage personal projects
• Book stack for a personal wiki
• calibre-web for my library
• syncthing for file and music syncing so I don’t have to stream music
• valheim server for me and my friends
• boinc for turning my server to a productive heater in the winter
• home assistant for my in-renovation smart home

As far as my server goes, I have everything I need. Maybe setting up something for sharing files over the web if needed. I used nextcloud for that before it killed itself completely and I realized I never really needed it.

Next is working on my smart home because we had to fully strip the house to renovate. KNX first, zwave for things that KNX doesn’t have or are crazy expensive, ESPHome for everything that the other two can’t accomplish. Minimal 2.4GHz interference and don’t have to rely as much as possible on flaky wireless in a brick house.

Often it will yell at you every day and be very intrusive, not actually disconnect from the internet and force join any old WiFi connections/any non-password protected ones, or simply refuse to work unless you connect them (I think some people were saying newer Samsung TVs do that)

Neither are all but the cheapest smart TVs.

It’s called double and triple dipping. Every single company that can get away with double, triple, quadruple dipping can and does.

Buying the initial product + Subscription + selling your data + dropping support to force you to buy a new product is quite commonplace. The old mantra of “if you are not paying, you are the product” doesn’t apply anymore because most companies do both.

Trakt also sells your data off to whoever wants it even though they explicitly say that they don’t. https://trakt.tv/privacy

I hadn’t had anything on any ad service about harry potter in years. Never searched anything about it or anything. Watched a quarter of one movie via jellyfin on linux completely locally with the trakt plugin. A few hours later I had harry potter advertisements everywhere that I don’t have an ad blocker.

Cops will literally have long term relationships and marry the person they are spying on when it comes to eco-activism.

The oil companies have such incredibly firm control over the worlds’ police forces that they have cops have long term sexual relationships with people opposing their ecocide and spy on them the entire time.

I think you will find that almost all grants either come from a corporation or a government. Crazy isn’t it? A very small amount comes from non-profits and often those nonprofits are majority funded by governments and corporations.

It really really depends on what you have for heating.

Floor heating + heat pump? You don’t need to mess around with target temp much because the principle behind it is thermal mass buildup and maintaining that. You have to tune thermostatic valves on the room level. Then you can have one central thermostat simply slightly change the target temperature with many hours of delay. That doesn’t seem too useful to me to automate.

Do you have radiators? Then you can get zwave or ZigBee valves and tie them together with whatever thermostat that you want in home assistant. Then you can set per room/zone heat depending on whatever sensors you have.

Do you have central forced air heating and air conditioning? Then you have pretty much target temp and on/off control unless you want to put in motorized automatic registers or redesign your entire duct system for per-room duct valves.

Individual heat pumps/airco units with radiator based heating is the most “per room” customizable and probably the most useful to put automations on in Home Assistant.

Ventilation can be useful by monitoring CO2 levels and humidity. Then you can use either the fan units themselves or socket switches to actuate those and put whatever sensors you want wherever it is useful.

I am probably missing some stuff here, but there are only a few HVAC setups that actually benefit from automation, in my opinion. Mainly ventilation, infrared, and non centralized forced air heat pumps. Plus heating and cooling is something you want to work 100% flawlessly even if your router dies, your home assistant falls off a cliff, and your ZigBee/zwave controller dies.

Different philosophy.

Ntfy uses pub-sub like MQTT. It publishes messages and anyone (with access) can subscribe to it. Want to connect 250 clients across 50 people to have the same messages delivered? Easy.

Gotify uses end to end messaging. A user creates an application on their chosen client. Gotify uses a REST api send the notification pulled from the chosen app to the user who made it. Want to do the same as above? You have to set it up 250 times. Gotify was the first to have authentication and some people say it is more robust, but I can’t speak on that. Also gotify is easier to set up and makes sense for a single user.

Someone can correct me if I am wrong, but that is the biggest architectural difference.

Sadly it doesn’t work with CrowdSec which is the biggest thing I would want notifications on (bans and such) and Gotify isn’t the pub/sub MQTT-style that I like about ntfy…
