Its basically IMAP, WebDAV, and CalDAV, plus a few other things, in one protocol. It greatly simplifies and unifies communications over a modern HTTPS connection while being an open standard.

JMAP is IMAPs open standard replacement.

Or JMAP, which is IMAP that doesn’t suck.

What CPU are you running? If you’re running an Intel CPU, most transcoding can be done using Intel QAT. Not sure metadata or OCR, as I’ve never needed large scale for these.

Otherwise, I 2nd what everyone is saying about Intel ARC GPUs. I saw an A750 for sale for $80 refurbished with a 2 year warranty on eBay the other day, so the older first gen ARC cards sometimes pop up for cheap.

Depends on your settings. You need to reboot for kernel upgrades, so you’re good if you have automatic periodic reboots configured and kernel updates applied unattended.

Your colleague sucked at automation. Normally, I’d say no one should be bothered on vacation, but in this case you should have called him on his vacation, since he didn’t value anyone else’s time either.

It’s not all pizza toppings. Lol. It’s the make of a silly card game.

That’s only relevant for NiMH batts. If you use Lithium rechargeables, their curve is flat around 1.4V until they’re close to dead.

Canonical has had a lot of missteps in recent years. Some (like snaps) they still actively are shooting themselves in the foot with.

I just timed my Debian box from cold shut down to ready to go. It was 13 seconds.

My Ubuntu Server? It took 86 seconds to boot on the exact same hardware.

A standard install of Ubuntu Server uses more RAM, has longer boot times, and generally just needs more resources to get going. You can strip some of that out, but Debian is that way from the start. Plus, Ubuntu is just Debian with extra shit on top.

Debian is also much longer lived and stable than even Ubuntu LTS releases, so I generally have just found it to be better suited to deployments where I don’t want to fuck with it for a long time, besides monthly patching.

As someone who has both Ubuntu servers and Debian servers…go with Debian. It does everything Ubuntu does, but leaner and better.

I know Plex is a business that has to make money, but if I hadn’t bought a lifetime pass for $50 a decade ago, I’d have dropped them at this point.

Also true

I bought Plex Pass when it was $75 for the lifetime option.

I prefer Jellyfin, but sharing is harder for family members with it because I can’t get them to just log in without existing credentials (Google Account, Apple ID, etc). Trying to convince me 67 year old mother-in-law to enter a URL, username, and password into an app with a remote is like asking my child to eat broccoli.

For now, I’ll keep running dual stack with both. If Plex pulls lifetime passes, even though it’ll be a PITA, I’ll convert everyone to Jellyfin despite the pain.
