- Comment on What apps do you use to listen music at work/on phone? 3 weeks ago:
Jellyfin on mobile and AndroidTV, and Strawberry on PC. All my music is on my NAS, which Jellyfin and CIFS/SMB can access.
Keep meaning to look into Music Assistant for Home Assistant, as I have the latter.
- Comment on What to do after getting a domain name? 4 weeks ago:
If you’re not using a domain for email, the MX record should not be left empty, as it can still be used maliciously.
Following a guide like this (it’s one of many) will ensure it’s not used at all:

He’s my friend. Goes to a different school. You wouldn’t know him…
- Comment on [News] Smoking Behind the Supermarket with You gets the first-ever perfect rating on Crunchyroll 4 weeks ago:
It’s such a good manga, so I’m excited to learn there’s at least a version of it on CR.
Shame, but I have zero surprise, that they didn’t let anyone know… 😖
- Comment on Classic dubs seemed so much better. Now most dubs seem unwatchable 1 month ago:
On the one hand, all anime and cartoons are dubs. Duh.
On the other, I think the last decade of English dubs have mostly been brilliant. But then I thought the same for Astro Boy in the 80s or Akira in the 90s. 🤷♂️
Some dubs are poorly done or made bad by external factors (politics, budget, half arsed production, retconning, etc), but that’s not a problem with the practice of dubbing.

Glad you asked the question and clarified. I was wondering what was going on. 😅
- Comment on ChatGPT fried my drive!? 6 months ago:
It’s true that people on the internet can be dicks. Even more so technical people (and that’s not limited to online: those online dicks are usually IRL dicks when taking technical stuff). But that’s a hurdle, not a barrier.
There’s little anyone here can do to help OP, as they (if I understand it correctly) have already irreparably nuked their hardware. The current problem is significantly different and harder than the original problem. Asking randos on this community is unlikely to yield results. Hence the focus on variations of “Now… what did we learn? 🤨”
I’m not trying to help, as I’m not familiar enough with SAS nor the current problem. The same is likely true of others here.

Can you really blame anyone who turns to AI, because that garbage at least sounds like it tries to help you?
A comfortable lie is still a lie. Everything that comes out of an LLM is a lie until proven otherwise. (“Lie” is a bit misleading, though, as they don’t have agency or intent: they’re a variation of your phone keyboard’s next-word text prediction algorithm. With added flattery and confidence.)
There’s a reason experienced people stress hard to others about not using them as shortcuts to your own knowledge. This is the outcome.
Another way to look at it is “trust, but verify”. If you’re intent on relying on probabilistic text as an answer, instead of bothering to learn, then take what it’s given you and verify what that does before doing it. You could learn to be an effective sloperator with just that common sense.
But if you’re going to give an LLM root/admin access to a production environment, then expect to be laughed at, because you had plenty of opportunities to not destroy something and actively chose not to use them.
- Comment on Plex’s crackdown on free remote streaming access starts this week - Ars Technica 7 months ago:
You can still use tailscale and reverse proxy to allow remote streaming
I used to use Plex and when I discovered there was paid remote streaming function - that goes through their servers - my reactions were “Haha, no”* and checking whether my existing WireGuard setup would do it instead.
Whaddya know, remote streaming using Plex and PlexAmp at no cost.
*Not because I begrudge them recouping costs, but because it’s designed that way to justify charging for it, gives them whatever information they want from my viewing, and it’s not self-hosting if there’s any third party cloud/account component to it.
