- Comment on Model numbers for laptops by MSI, Acer, and ASUS need a secret decoder ring.. anyone know the secret meanings? 2 days ago:
There’s not going to be a decoder ring with these machines because those companies shit out so many awful machines that nobody cared about in the first place. You’ll get nice decoding for MacBooks since there’s only ever been like 4 of them, and there’s a diehard and big user base. Same for thinkpads, albeit there’s only like 4 models people actually care about.
But nobody gives a shit about MSIs 900th new model for the year. It was a bad laptop when it was new. Even msi probably didn’t care.
Unfortunately nobody ever put AMDs APUs into actually good laptops, they only ever went into sludge like that destroyer.
- Comment on Any tips on plastic adhesives? Trying to repair headphones 6 days ago:
If it’s ABS (which most thugs are) try methyl ethyl ketone to melt it back together.
Just a dab of MEK will melt the plastic, but it evaporates/dissolves quickly. Once you apply it press the pies together firmly for a few minutes, then let it cure for a while after that. The bond should be as strong as it was from the factor. Then if you want apply some JB weld for extra strength.

Gamer printer?

That’s the key. It just works. No extra setup necessary.
And more importantly, I do t have to have my 60 year old mom do some additional setup in her end. Just install the app, and go.

This happens automatically but it does happen
And that’s the key, it happens automatically and it just works. With jellyfin you have to expose the web server to the internet, or point an app to something else exposed on the internet. With plex you don’t. If you don’t want to (or can’t) a direct connection from your server to their servers, then their servers to your device is established. No VPNs, no reverse proxies, no port forwarding, nothing exposed to the rest of the internet.

How do you communicate with the server outside of your network? You’d still need to expose those ports directly to the internet right? (excluding VPNs/reverse proxy etc)
- Comment on Improve very slow library scans on Jellyfin 10.11 / 12 on spinning media 2 weeks ago:
Inside the network you do, but not for remote access outside the network.
- Comment on Improve very slow library scans on Jellyfin 10.11 / 12 on spinning media 2 weeks ago:
It’s a very sensical statement. I’m not exposing a whole ass website on my own network just for remote viewing. With plex you don’t need to do that.

Also doesn’t jellyfin not support remote streaming?
- Comment on Valve aren't putting any exclusives on the Steam Machine because they see "the whole PC catalog as our 'launch exclusive'" 4 weeks ago:
Wsl is just a VM and it can run graphical apps. I’ve never used it for games, but I’ve ran some intensive simulations through it that used my GPU and it worked fine so probably.
- Comment on Is there a way to fix volume controls for EarPods on Android? Hello all, 1 month ago:
I don’t think there is a fix for this since it’s a hardware issue not software. Or if there is a fix it probably would need root since it needs to make hardware act differently.

Don’t make the post if you don’t want others to benefit from it.
PM a random person and bother them if you want to be selfish hoard the info for yourself. Don’t make a public post on a public messaging board if you don’t want that info to be public.

I absolutely detest how on lemmy deleting a post also nukes access to the comments. They’re still there, but there’s no way in many normally lemmy UI to get to them.
- Comment on Old Thin Clients - Which CPU is fine? 5 months ago:
A slower CPU sucks, but swapping sucks even more. Is the ram upgradeable? You can get 16gb ddr3 sticks of ram. Idk how much EOL/the ram pocalypse has affected their pricing though.
- Comment on Valve confirm the Steam Machine will be priced like a PC with similar specs, rather than a console 8 months ago:
Not anymore. That changed with the Xbox one and PS4.
