Oh I didn’t realize that everyone uses the term literally. I thought it had expanded to mean a general lack of adoption of change. My bad I guess.
- Comment on Meet the AI vegans: They are choosing to abstain from using artificial intelligence for environmental, ethical and personal reasons. Maybe they have a point 1 week ago:
There literally is. It’s a mentality that prevents vaccine adoption rates and such. That said, being slow to adopt a technology like Boomers to the Internet is okay. Not adopting a technology because it has no inherent value and is being foisted on us by the ruling class is solid bro behavior.

I would think the Jellyfin logs would say if it deleted something. But I have to say, I cannot fully understand GUID and PUID in all cases. But you can try to subtract 1 digit from PUID (100 to 99) and then try to delete a show or movie within Jellyfin’s interface. If it won’t do it, then you’ve got the permissions at least where it can’t delete things. It is possible to not view things as well, so it might take some research or trial and error and make sure you write down where it is now. But, it will remove one factor at least.
- Comment on Just created my own zero trust network! 3 weeks ago:
Do you have the media cleanup plugin installed for Jellyfin? I wonder if you change the PUID and/or GUID if you couldn’t make sure Jellyfin wasn’t the source of the deletion.

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 donations for over a decade now. If it’s personal use stuff, not business, you’re fine to put in whatever.

You say all that on 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.

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.
- Comment on I have some questions about selfhosting 2 months ago:
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.

- Comment on Plex now will SELL your personal data 2 months ago:
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.
- Comment on getting 522 error Cloudflaired + Jellyfin + fail2ban 2 months ago:
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.
- Comment on Searching advice for selfhosting critical data 2 months ago:
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.
- Comment on Searching advice for selfhosting critical data 2 months ago:
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.
- Comment on Searching advice for selfhosting critical data 2 months ago:
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.
- Comment on That's all folks, Plex is starting to charge for sharing 3 months ago:
That’s for the CDN. It’s about serving static, cached content faster. I actually tried to pay and use their Stream service, but it’s only to be used for serving video in a when page. While they’ve not directly clarified on the topic (even after being asked directly in the forums several times), don’t turn on caching and it appears to serve the language they’ve used in the updated TOS. I’m not a lawyer here, but parse that all as you will. Don’t take up storage on their CDN and they seem to be happy. I actually did buy some domain names through them to make sure I’m not just using their services without giving anything back. But, that’s a matter of conscience.
- Comment on That's all folks, Plex is starting to charge for sharing 3 months ago:
Who’s to say what content I stream. You do you, boo.
- Comment on That's all folks, Plex is starting to charge for sharing 3 months ago:
No it’s not. It used to be. They removed that part of the TOS about video streaming back in 2023.
