  renderD128 (Intel dgpu) couldn’t be added to the container (linuxserver image). Will take a look later, when I’m home, to find the issue. But may take your time for the update and don’t yolo it like I did :)

  Does the backside of a traffic light even count? What about these strange traffic lights that have more boarder than light?

  I can tell you from my own experience, you don’t do the child a favor by sticking to a broken relationship, I wished my parents have broken up earlier instead of pretending everything is good and that’s how a normal relationship should be. It took me years and I sometimes still struggle today to draw a line and go into a conflict with my partner to figure things out instead of avoiding the conflict

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨DVDs are dying right as streaming has made them appealing again⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  No, bluray is 1080p (or 2160p if UHD Bluray) while DVDs are 576p-720p (what looks really shitty on a 4K TV). I only buy BDs and UHD BDs these days

  Unfortunately the court wasn’t that strict in it’s most recent decision regarding data retention (different lead judge combined with the endless tries from the politics)

  Sorry, I meant risk taking not averse (not my 1st language) Regarding the bugs, they get usually fixed within days

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Jellyfin | "We are pleased to announce the latest stable release of Jellyfin, version 10.9.0!"⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  *10.9 if not latest. For the risk averse folks out there, check out github.com/containrrr/watchtower I just let it run every night, so far w/o problems

  I’d love that becoming a thing. TV OSs are always so shitty, I bet dedicated open source work would do wonders

  Well according to quantum theory, you can (the possibility is just very low)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Auto execs are coming clean: EVs aren't working⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, you are right. It only makes sense if you jave the option to charge at home, at your work or similar. Anyway, I’m happy I don’t have to think about this kind of shit. I get on my bike and just drive, if something is broken, it’s usually a $15 fix I can do by myself in an hour.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Auto execs are coming clean: EVs aren't working⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I guess you are walking around with your phone until it dies, charge it for 5mins and then repeat? … or do you just plug it in over night or when you are not using it? That’s really not a good point you are bringing up here. You could critisize, that there are only few public charging stations (with user friendly terms) or what the comment you answered to is critisizing or even that there are so few alternatives for (really) climate friendly transport, but your point is just ‘what if I am not able to think at all??’

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Worst fear confirmed: You can't launch Modern Warfare 3 without first launching Modern Warfare 2⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s so stupid. If they made it like switching between warzone and multiplayer, that’d have been okay, although still unnecessary, but this just bad UX - again. Nobody believes their lie, that this is more than an update anyway, why pretend different?

  Thanks for the insights. No holy among the capitalist companies…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Spotify re-invented the radio⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  if only they’d pay the musicians worth a shit<

  afaik that’s mainly the fault of the music labels, they charge quite good money, but they don’t give it to the artists: blog.groover.co/en/tips/loud-clear-spotify-2/

  Gatekeeping milk. Okay, if you think that’s worth the effort

  Take some sand paper and grind a little off of the heavier ones? (No idea if that would ruin your aerodynamics too much)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨help w finding internship/part time without a degree yet⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  If the course of study isn’t fixed, yet, you could look for a “Duales Studium” and ask the company to start earlier/asap - most likely they’ll accept. But Werkstudent is probably better

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First steps to self hosting⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t worry, most of this is about learning :) You could also put Docker on the Linux, install Jellyfin as a Docker container, and only fore it up when you are using Jellyfin. It’s a little less convenient, than having it available all the time, but storing all media in H264 AC3 (most common video and audio codecs) costs a lot of storage (H265 and AV1 are far more efficient). Another pro of Docker is, when you decide to move your server, you just shut down the container, copy it’s data and start the container on the new device

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First steps to self hosting⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  You’ll have to keep in mind, that the pi is not really suitable for RAID and not at all for transcoding. The latter means if you have all your media in codecs your devices support, it’s direct play only, it will work, but as soon as you need to transcode, you will have a hard time

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First steps to self hosting⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d go for the consumer case with as much drive space as possible, but in the end it’s up to your taste. With rackmount full professional server stuff, you have to keep in mind, it’s not only quite large in terms of space, but also noisy. This is something for the basement or something. Another option would be a mini pc like a NUC combined with a NAS - here is the limit the upgradability of the hardware. Like you can usually upgrade the RAM a little and the system drive, but that’s it. Especially for media stuff (Plex, Emby, Jellyfin) it can be interesting to have a dedicated GPU, like an Intel card, to have more transcoding capabilities. I’m currently running most things from a SFF PC, but also have a Pi and an old laptop in use for various tasks (main reason is lazyness to move the services to the SFF lol)
