Windows is fine for me. I work with it all day long too. But yeah Windows is just another enshitification product.

In that case I’ll let you off!

Paragraphs…

All my media is shared from a Raspberry Pi 4 with a HDD attached to it via NFS. Jellyfin runs as a container on a cheap Chinese mini pc I got off AliExpress. I’ve not had any issues over the network. It even transcodes on a share of the Pi as my SSD that has Jellyfin on is too small for larger movies.

I used Plex for a long time and was very tempted by their lifetime plan. I tried Jellyfin but at the time it just wasn’t a patch on Plex. I continued with Plex but always had that itch to get away from closed source. I eventually tried Jellyfin again and whilst it’s definitely not as feature rich as Plex, it does what I need from it which is a central store of media that any TV in my house can use. I’ve even given a few friends a login so they can watch content.

I do love that it’s completely self hosted. I run it behind Caddy so it has a Let’s Encrypt certificate. All run in a Docker container with the media from an NFS share from a Pi4 with an external HDD.

That said, I still have Plex running as I have one Samsung TV and there’s no official Jellyfin client for it. Yes there’s some long winded developer way to get one on but I just can’t be bothered.

I use it for note taking at work. I like that I can add code into markdown. But yeah post notes and paste screenshots. Useful when I want to go over my old tech notes when I’ve fixed stuff. A personal knowledge base. The fact it’s markdown I could just upload this to somewhere like GitHub and it retains it’s formatting

It was yeah. But there’s a fork which is much better.

Syncthing works great for me. I don’t use it on my phone but I know there’s an android version.

WB/Discovery+ just screwed people in the UK for watching cycling. It was £7 a month to watch before, which I was happy to pay. They just put an end to that and now bundled the cycling with their premium sports service for £29. I’m not paying all that when I only want cycling and none of their other content.

I cancelled my subscription, asked them to delete my account, purchased a fire stick and now paying for some dodgy IPTV service to watch it there for a fraction of the price.

It’s kinda odd that all these years later, you’re still better off pirating than paying for anything digital. All these services solved piracy but we’ve now gone full circle.

Imagine walking or using a bike

Endless wars about federations. Ha, so true. Along with switching to Linux and Privacy.

Only UK is known to have only moderate decline, but they probably think it’s independence for UK to buy Tesla, because fuck Europe for some reason???

That’s a strange comment to make and I doubt it has anything to do with the EU.

Any UK EV car review I watch, the Tesla comes out on top. The issue with EV’s is public charging and Tesla’s charging network is a big reason people go with Tesla’s. They also tend to have the longest range and retain their value longer. Company cars are also favouring EV’s to make themselves look better and once again the Tesla is the recommended vehicle by the leasing company. Why? Because of the charging network.

The other obvious one is the UK public consumes a lot of US media and social media and therefore is now heavily influenced by the US.

I use PipePipe as it has sponsor block baked in

Caddy is awesome! I originally went for nginx proxy manager to manage my certs as it has a GUI. However, despite being text based, Caddy is so even easier to configure…

        email myemail@mydomain.net
}

jellyfin.mydomain.net {
        reverse_proxy 192.168.0.1:8096
}```


That's all there is to it. Caddy does the heavy lifting.

Any guesses on the fancy marketing name they’ll give it?

Do you happen to have an invite code for rise up? Seems I need one to register

I have a Pixel 8 and don’t have connectivity or overheating issues. I say this as it’s 38°C right now 🥵

The lack of being able to use extensions in Firefox on iOS is a deal breaker for me.
