  • selfh.st: improper etiquette by 2010 standards? (trackers, no RSS) Thoughts?

  • im subbed with freshrss and for the first few weeks, it was a full article each Friday.

    now, it's just like you've posted.

    i may have been late to that site but i do feel like i saw the seeds of enshittification sprout right before my eyes

  • Spotify fans threaten to return to piracy as music streamer introduces new face-scanning age checks in the UK

    Jump

  • i didn't care about just grabbing the 720p 600mb video file back when i was watching on a little laptop screen.

    it does not hold up on the big stuff.

    kinda same applies to audio?

    crap sounds like crap on a phone speaker, but so does hi quality stuff.

    noise and low dynamics are more noticeable on more powerful, louder gear.

    just spitballing here, not an expert!

  • this.. this is absolutely my exact life situation right now.

    like we don't agree about ANYTHING even though i am literally watching them suffer from the consequences of how they've been voting since they came of age (fuck Reagan)

    why do i keep hanging out with them? because they have a boat? i don't think it's worth it anymore

    ugh

  • TIL there is a law called Marchetti's Constant. Humans only tolerate commutes of less than ~1 hour. Housing outside that limit will fail.

  • also they're surrounded by fuckin repedoclicans

  • For people running a family chat in their #selfhosted #homelab: What is the system with the best mobile experience (both Android and iOS)? I've been using mattermost, but my family is not super

    Jump

  • i spun up a snikket instance, with a domain and caddy, all that jazz.

    the chat is really just about perfect.

    we use the conversations xmpp app, and the only issue is that our phones don't really see that app as a respectable calling app. the phones let other sounds play over the call, like GPS voices, or if a regular call comes in while we're on a call, it hijacks the audio system until we decline or answer.

    Otherwise it's been pretty sweet!

    Jump

  • this is great! i was intrigued by nix and nixOS early into my linux venture and this has probably pushed me to start moving my stuff from Debian, though i am kinda addicted to proxmox.

    but the way you're doing truenas is how I'm running my stuff too. way more planning on your end really cleans it all up!

  • Best plex/jellyfin compatible streaming box

    Jump

  • well it's really developed to be a 10ft interface, so yeah the touch controls aren't ideal. handles just the same as it does on TV, on a phone with a remote or game controller though?

    i just use the individual streaming apps on the phone if it's in my hands.

    the OP asked for a device recommendation, My point was that it can be any device that runs the same program that works easily from the TV.

    all these windows 10 PC's going in the dumpster soon could be given a new life with LibreELEC.

    but i am curious though, are there other single apps on phone that work better with local media and streaming services?

  • kodi.

    kodi kodi kodi.

    kodi on everything, headless kodi, kodi on phone, on linux computer, LibreELEC on an old chromebook,

    addons for other streaming services, for immich, for subsonic music, jellyfin and emby.

    so much more also.

    customize the gui to your hearts extent, or just fall in love with every piece of media in your ecosystem easily visible in a unified interface that works with remotes, game controllers, air mouse. keyboard. App on phone, web interface from another machine

    once you get the first one perfected, back it up and immediately have it on the next machine.

    YouTube is a little bit of a bitch but there's ways around that sometimes
