You glorious bastard. She fucking loved it. She literally deleted the other one right away. Thank you so much <3

I know for a fact they’re better than a physical book, but I just can’t focus and understand them. It’s insane how my brain just blocks them. The other day, I literally even stared at the screen trying to follow the book, a couple of seconds later, I was thinking of something else. 😂. Gave up. I might need some training or something

I think we are all set on Audiobookshelf and Audiobooth. I appreciate you :)

I’ll leave that part for the wife to take care since she’s the one who does audiobooks. I can’t. I will never be able to actually listen to an audiobook no matter how much I try. I don’t know if it’s my ADHD or what, but I just can’t focus.

What a gorgeous app. I don’t listen to audiobooks, I can never focus, ever. I have to read words, otherwise I’d definitely use this app.

Found a FOSS client that doesn’t leech, they don’t lock anything behind a paywall, they just ask for a donation as an option, which is very nice of them. Already sent them one donation and I’ll be sending more if the wife enjoys her new app :)

I SelfHosted a buncha things. I’ve been working on moving away from big tech for a while now. Set up ABS to experiment with it and it’s been nice so far. Found a decent iOS client that is FOSS. It’s called Audiobooth. Wife is the iOS user, I’m a user of both iOS and Android.

Thank you :)

Thank you. I’ve tried both Plappa and Audiobooth. I like the latter more.
- Comment on What's a good audiobooks server/client combo? 3 days ago:
I actually didn’t realize it was open source until I read your comment. That’s why it felt like a nice place and didn’t lock anything behind a paywall. Money well spent then. :)

I got Audiobooth and it doesn’t lock some features behind a paywall like prologue does. It only has options to donate. Sent the dev a donation of course and gonna keep trying it out.

That’s really nice. Thank you.

Fuck audible and fuck Amazon. They literally used my card without my permission to charge for an audible subscription. I had to call them and get my money back. Closed all of my accounts with these fuckers.

I did setup Audiobookshelf via normal apt in the command line. I also have docker for other things, but this time I wanted to try things the normal way to see. It wasn’t bad. It created a config file that has two lines in /etc and I just created a folder in /srv and and dumped the files there and pointed the client to it. Still experimenting with it and a client app called “Audiobooth”. Not bad so far.

Yes, the wife is hardcore iPhone. That’s all she used her whole life. I’ve setup Audiobookshelf and it’s not bad. Kinda looks like jellyfin in a way. Still experimenting

Ha. That sounds like a good idea. Never thought about it that way.

You can do movies and shows and also music if you don’t go full blown 4k and it’s only you. Navidrome would run on a potato for music. lol
- Comment on [Ubuntu] [Docker] Need help with Nvidia hardware acceleration in Jellyfin 5 days ago:
Man, I have an intel iGPU myself, in a little Dell optiplex 7090 and it was a breeze on my Debian sever. Installed through apt and it’s running as a systemd service. No issues so far. Only one issue I had was when I played a 70GB 4k HDR movie that’s loaded with audio and subs and picture enhancements on my OLED TV. The server’s little fan was screaming and the movie kept pausing every 20 seconds. Other than that I have a ton of other movies and shows and I have no issues.

Don’t even mention it. I have real world experience in that area 😂

Very cheap. Just kidding. Fuck that shit

Maybe I can. The only thing you know about me is my username 😂

And how much will that cost? Sounds like something fantastic for my Jellyfin server. I’ll have all the 4k HDR I can get my hands on.

Omfg. I love you. 😭. I tried this very last week to make it work through their workaround and it never wanted to work out. Thank you so much bringing this up.

Technofeudalism. Great book by Yanis Varoufakis. He called it and it’s actually happening.

Ah, this makes sense now. Sorry, English is the second language and it takes some extra processing to get things sometimes. lol
- Comment on I need to vent about plastic milk jugs 1 month ago:
What are you saying? Are they trying to make it hold less? Hold more? Not following.
- Comment on I need to vent about plastic milk jugs 1 month ago:
Your explanation doesn’t make sense to me. The dimple is in the center of the jug, how is it related to the level of milk there?
