I mean, it renews every year. The worst case scenario is it’s against the TOS of the registrar and they can suspend your domain. Do with that what you will of course. Also, I was doing that with another domain but fixed it when I moved it to porkbun with their free anonymity service. I wasn’t going to pay domain.com’s ridiculous fees for it.

I’ve had 123 Sex Drive as the address on one of my domains for over a decade now. If it’s personal use stuff, not business, you’re fine to put in whatever.

It’s so blatantly insane.

Not to give my fellow countrymen a pass, there’s an absolute ton of shitheels here. But do remember that on news sites there are a lot of bot comments. Don’t feel overwhelmed by voice, it’s not necessarily true.

We are an ICE agent getting a blister from his shitty aftermarket grip while pointing his weapon at protestors away from embracing totalitarianism.

You say all that in jest but I’m old enough to have seen the change. Old enough and from a remote enough area that the change happened late for me.

I’d say it was about 1994-1995 when I noticed it. The police became more militarized and the standards of law enforcement were changed to be a revolving door where if they fucked up, they just got moved far enough away from the fuck up that no one knew about it there. Basically following the Catholic church system.

So law enforcement went from being socially embedded in the community to being outside of it a bit. And then over time, above it. And mind you, this is very rural. Towns smaller than 10k people were considered our cities. Cops have always been class traitors but looking back, this all felt like a calculated sea change.

And then of course 9/11 happened and police started getting the militarized hardware to go along with the attitude. And then Fox news started to warp what were pretty decent people into being xenophobic hate worshippers.

But right before all that, if you were caught causing trouble, underage drinking or even drinking and driving, the cops would bring you to your house to face your parents. Not to a jail cell.

We had a decent amount of freedom. Actual freedom. Capitalism was reigning supreme at larger scales, but it hadn’t been applied to every single thing in life quite yet. It didn’t have its act together enough to suck the fun out of just existing. Even state government (in a low-population state) felt pretty community driven. Legislators would come by and visit even my tiny village.

You didn’t see no trespassing signs on every piece of fence because frivolous lawsuits hadn’t been made popular yet. My mom, a single mother, she did struggle financially but she still was capable of raising my brother and I in safety on a waitress’ wage. And again, this is a tiny ass town she was waitressing in. Fewer than 500 people.

The 80’s and 90’s were far from perfect but it does allow me to know we can do better. We can have it better. And it’s one of the few things that keep me working and fighting. The younger generations deserve better and they can have a better life than has been provided to them.

Some nice improvements to an already great piece of kit. Good job y’all. Looking forward to updating.

Well, with Plex constantly changing allowed abilities and such, it seems to me that this is the expected outcome.

The OP might disagree from what I’m seeing.

But I keep hearing the value of Plex is that anyone can use it.

Similarly, most books are printed in signatures. Several pages on one sheet printed on a press, then folded and trimmed and then bound to make a book. A signature almost always has to have at minimum a 4 page signature.

Yes, it’s obviously the ancient death cult symbol that stifles humanity and individuality that would make that room feel claustrophobic.

It really depends on your use case. I’ve gone through 9tb of data in a month. And often have up to a dozen BR quality movie requests at once. 35-65gb each, on average. If you’re only doing one movie at a time and only doing torrent quality, you shouldn’t have any issues.

One of the issues with multiple devices is networking. Transferring totally legit files for the Arr stack to and from the NAS can be a lot of data. Keeping it all in one system means your speeds up to that point are SATA speeds vs ethernet.

For the OP, one file with hard linking is my goal, but I only use Usenet. I rip anything that comes down with Tdarr to strip languages, normalize audio and rip to H265. If you do that with torrents, you will need to keep the original for seeding.

Have you set up jellyfish at your home, given access to a friend outside of your network who could not setup Jellyfin themselves, and successfully got them playing on their TV, table tablet, and/or phone? Have you been able to set them up without them having to call you every week?

Yes. It’s very easy. It might not have used to be easy but it is for the last couple of years. Dead simple. About a dozen people use my Jellyfin server across TV’s, phones, tablets, laptops. None of them are what I would call techies. It’s as simple for them as Netflix.

I rate it about 5/10 on the marvel scale but like a 2/10 on general movie scale. If I had paid theater money for it I would be pissed. Brie Larsen is just awful. Badly cast and increasingly unlikeable.

I absolutely adore Iman Vellani as Ms Marvel. Her and her family made the entire movie for me. I’m a childless middle aged man, hardly the key demographic for her character but I felt like they nailed it as did she.

Teyona Parris I think is also great as Monica Rambau. She’s got the intensity and a great dry wit. Her character was misused.

They made Captain Marvel so OP in the Avengers that the story had very little suspense and just felt like it was cramming together some concepts. I’ve not watched it since it came out so I night take this opportunity to rewatch and maybe critique it more succinctly. But, it was bad.

I’m sure it got a lot of hate from red pilled incels but it still had to be a good movie beyond that. And it just wasn’t.

America following in your footsteps I guess.

You will want the actual IP address. Localhost can get lost in various circumstances. If Cloudflare tunnel service and Jellyfin are on the same virtual network it should be fine. But I wouldn’t trust it.

But yes, your Cloudflare tunnel should only connect to http:// not https. It will serve https on the public side of things.

I think you can get Open Street Maps in the F Droid app store. But, as much as I appreciate OSM, it’s just not the same as Google maps. The speed, accuracy and information doesn’t seem to have an equal.

You definitely can run Nextcloud in a VM. With decent hardware, it will do it. I guess I would say it depends on needs and expectations. My install is not snappy to me. I’ve got what I feel is a very beefy server but still. Just feels a little slow at times. Totally functional. Just has a small amount of lag when doing anything. I’ve read people say they have none at all. But when you’re busy and relying on it, my suggestion is to eke out everything you can for it for a better experience. Not make or break by any means.

I don’t think it’s a problem per se, as much as it’s a difference in priorities. But the docker implementation in TrueNAS is more of an afterthought. I think they’ve fixed some issues but checking out their forums, many of the issues I faced seem to still exist. Docker packages corrupting and not being accessible in any way, not updating, just seemingly, not robust. Also, I disliked the file permission structure but that’s more preference I think. I would say TrueNAS is a great NAS just not the best hypervisor and NAS.

A few things. I also think nextcloud is the way to go for what you want. I’ve gotten rid of anything Google I can. Except for maps. Man, there just is no substitute especially when mobile.

I always do, but I’m going to suggest Unraid for a NAS. Pay the money and then just enjoy it. I fought with truenas for over a year before I succumbed. You can totally play around with zfs, striped arrays whatever. I do not recommend an external enclosure. I think you’ll come to hate it for lack of ability. I recommend biting the bullet and building a machine or putting your current PC components into a real case with upgradability if possible.

Also, I wouldn’t plan on running Nextcloud in a VM. Nextcloud is pretty beefy and a VM adds complexity that I suggest against. A docker AIO version of nextcloud running on as close to bare metal as you can is probably the best option for performance.
