Season 2 has one of my favorite ending scenes: www.youtube.com/watch?v=VWR_hTC4A98 (Spoilers for S02E07)
Really a great show.

Do a library rescan on your music library and then download the latest Finamp beta from here: github.com/jmshrv/finamp/releases
Lyrics should work then:

Is he such a bad writer or what’s the problem?
- Comment on Bethesda Quietly Removes Denuvo DRM from Ghostwire: Tokyo 4 weeks ago:
It’s twice as funny in this game because they added Denuvo a year after release. Meaning all pirates got the game DRM free on day one while paying customers got Denuvo patched in.
Absolute waste of money.
- Comment on Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut PC cross-play and system requirements revealed 4 weeks ago:
It does, but Sony didn’t go through the crash and burn phase on PC yet so they need to add their own fancy overlay before killing it in a few years.
- Comment on How to revitalize this sub? 4 weeks ago:
You sound like you might enjoy a Steam Deck. So many great games available on PC, you don’t even need to take a glance at any micro transaction infested games.
- Comment on My stupidity saved me from being hacked today! 1 month ago:
I don’t run Pi-hole but quickly peeking into the container (
docker run -it --rm --entrypoint /bin/sh pihole/pihole:latest) the folder and files belong to root with the permissions being 755 for the folder and 644 for the files.chmod 700most likely killed Pi-hole because a service that is not running as root will be accessing those config files and you removed their read access.Also, I’m with the guys above. Never
chmod 777anything, period. In 99.9% of cases there’s a better way. - Comment on Docker - what use is it? 1 month ago:
They have a different architecture so it comes down to preference.
Docker runs a daemon that you talk to to deploy your services. podman does not have a daemon, you either directly use the podman command to deploy services or use systemd to integrate them into your system.

Played most of it on my Deck and it ran well, enjoy. :)

I also got the Yakuza Collection just now after finshing Yakuza 0 a few weeks ago. 35 bucks for Yakuza 1 - 6 seems like a steal.
- Comment on Anime Questions, Recommendations, and Discussion Thread [Week 11] 2 months ago:
While I’m glad Boy and Heron won the Oscar for more visibility for anime, I definitely would not have picked it. It wasn’t even my favorite anime of 2023 (that was Suzume) and certainly wasn’t my favorite of the nominees. I would have rather Nimona or Across the Spiderverse won.
I think Across the Spider-Verse was robbed in this case. Outstanding animation through and through.

HTTP/3 is UDP as well but only on port 443.
- Comment on Tip: mount Jellyfin transcode directory to hard drive! 2 months ago:
Nope, release target is mid-April currently.
- Comment on Tip: mount Jellyfin transcode directory to hard drive! 2 months ago:
Starting with 10.9 you can enable segment deletion so files are cleaned up while still transcoding.
- Comment on Media center under 100€ capable of 4k video 2 months ago:
I guess the processor needs to be an Amlogic for the best media experience?
If you want to use CoreELEC, yes. It only supports Amlogic.
They also support flashing a lot of different TV android boxes and some can be had for cheap so also worth looking there.
- Comment on Helldivers 2 gets its first rebalance patch 2 months ago:
But the HMG is not a support weapon and the railgun is? I don’t quite get the point.
We can take down 4 chargers at the same time with this strategy with 2 people with recoilless. More than that and the orbital laser or railcannon have to come out.
- Comment on Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition PC specifications revealed, out March 21 2 months ago:
This game is ported by Nixxes so I’m cautiously optimistic that it will be a good port.
They fixed up Zero Dawn after release and aced pretty much every port since then.
- Comment on Helldivers 2 gets its first rebalance patch 2 months ago:
The chargers work pretty well with a shot from the recoilless rifle in one of the front legs followed by a magazine of the primary gun in the now exposed leg.
HMG + recoilless also works pretty well, rocket in leg and 1-2 seconds with the HMG and he’s gone.
Only downside is the reload time so if you have 2 or more chargers somebody has to kite them while you reload.
- Comment on Media center under 100€ capable of 4k video 2 months ago:
CoreELEC is especially built with Amlogic chips in mind, it includes all the drivers necessary to GPU decode all codecs it can.
The live test you posted runs on CPU, there’s no mobile ARM chip out there that can smoothly CPU decode anything above 1080p so using GPU decode is crucial.
- Comment on Media center under 100€ capable of 4k video 2 months ago:
That depends on the SBC.
Most of them boot from SD so you will want to get an enterprise SD card or one for cameras.
The Odroids have an eMMC slot for storage. Most boot from USB as well.
There are now SBC with SATA ports and even some with M.2 or PCI-e slots.
- Comment on Media center under 100€ capable of 4k video 2 months ago:
They use Samsung Exynos CPUs IIRC instead of the Broadcom chips that the Pis use
Didn’t know there were Odroids with Exynos CPUs.
The N2+ has an Amlogic S922X, CoreELEC is also a fork of LibreELEC but only for Amlogic processors.
There are newer Amlogic chips nowadays but I never looked into them.
- Comment on Media center under 100€ capable of 4k video 2 months ago:
I have been using a Odroid N2+ running CoreELEC with the Jellyfin plugin ever since it released. Plays absolutely everything you throw at it, even 4k60 with HDR.
If you need Dolby Vision, you will need one of the supported devices, the Odroid N2+ is not one of them.
- Comment on Detroit Become Human caught me by surprise 2 months ago:
Since I noticed a lot of people didn’t replay due to slowness
The system to replay chapters was really bad, if you had been able to jump in at every scene I probably would have replayed parts I was interested in as well.
Only being able to resume at given checkpoints and then having to spend an hour to get to the part you are interested in was just a drag so I didn’t really bother after my initial playthrough.
- Comment on Router recommendation 3 months ago:
Due to time and energy i tend to an out of the box, non OSS solution.
Why not both? OPNsense and pfSense both sell official hardware.
Both are pretty easy to configure but have pretty much no limit on how deep you can go.
Unifi works great as well but you hit a ceiling fairly quickly if it needs to do anything advanced.
- Comment on How I reduced the size of my very first published docker image by 40% - A lesson in dockerizing shell scripts 3 months ago:
That depends, we have quite a few images that are just a single shell script or a collection of shell scripts which run as jobs or cronjobs. Most of them are used for management tasks like cleaning up, moving stuff or debugging.
Has the big advantage of being identical on each node so you don’t have to worry about keeping those shell scripts up to date with volumes. Very easy to just deploy a job with a debug image on every node to quickly check something in a cluster.
Of course, if the shell script “belongs” to an application you might as well add the shell script in the application container and override the start arguments.
- Comment on How I reduced the size of my very first published docker image by 40% - A lesson in dockerizing shell scripts 3 months ago:
Environments like Kubernetes only run containers so you would deploy any shell script with containers as well.

- Comment on What's the best way to stream my files to my devices whem I'm away from home? 4 months ago:
Plex is a fork of Kodi
Just as a side note, Plex has absolutely nothing to do with Kodi. Jellyfin is a fork of Emby, maybe you mixed them up.
- Comment on Poor video playback quality on Kodi 4 months ago:
As someone who runs CoreELEC on all their HTPCs I cannot agree with this comment.
Is it a bad desktop application? Yes, but Kodi is for HTPCs what VLC is for desktops, it plays everything you throw at it. On dedicated HTPCs it is about the best you can get.
I went from a Windows PC with VLC, to MPC to Plex to Jellyfin and landed on Kodi/CoreELEC in the end.
None of your alternatives provide a interface that is useable in an environment where controlling via remote/phone is important and supporting 4k/HDR/Dolby Vision/audio passthrough and various codecs is a must. Plex comes close but locks you into their environment while Kodi can stream anything (including from Plex and Jellyfin).
