Thanks for making me laugh!

No.

Maybe the end of the axle? This definitely looks weird

Actually today was very close to ideal. A beautiful morning.

It is created by the samw dev as pixelfed - wouldn’t be surprised if parts were reused to bootstrap quickly.

Takes half a minute to start playing, which gets annoying real quick when a toddler gets involved with all the short videos.

Random buffering every 10-15 minutes on most 1080p as well as 4k videos.

Random buffering every couple of minutes on certain videos - the whole of the office us is the last one I remember.

Crappy multi audio track support - some of them play, but most don’t. What was most infuriating at first was jellyfin happily selecting the track I want in UI and then just playing the default one anyway.

The UI is kinda crap - I understand moving on a tv screen is more difficult, but god damn - what jellyfin is doing with arrow navigation is plain masochistic.

When it works - it’s beautiful. But it rarely does so for long enough.

I really want to like it, but it’s doing its best to push me away.

And before you suggest anything - I’ve already tried everything there is to try that’s available on the open internet. Happy to hear something that’s never been posted anywhere, though!

I can only vouch for my setup; many variations are available.

• Nextcloud - files, photo autoupload, contacts, calendar
• Postfix and dovecot (and a bunch of friends) - email
• Pixelfed - private instagram. Can federate, but I’ve never enabled that.
• Opnsense - firewall, vpn, adblocking via unbound. Wireguard is my choice, but any would do. I get all my lan stuff available everywhere.
• Jellyfin - media library. It’s kinda sucky, though, thinking of going back to plex, unfortunately.
• Lemmy - well. You know what it is :)
• Graphene on a pixel

Hit me up if you ever decide to go self hosting route and need a hand with a thing or two!

Fully agree with the sentiment, but the blog post itself is kinda crap. All it really says is - hey, we’re overcomplicating things, but subscribe to my rss for when I actually start talking about it!

A bunch of obnoxious little shits. I think lemmy populace took them as far-right wing assholes, but I think that wasn’t actually right. They simply acted as spoilt kids during puberty.

It’s what explodingheads renamed itself to after everyone blocked it.

I’ve always wanted to archive stuff, but storage costs keep getting in the way. Any idea if there’s some trick people use to get around it? I’d love me a tape robot, but that’s stupid expensive.

This is the Cyanide part, you silly goose.

I’m still excited. I’ve probably used it long enough to simply not miss autocorrect. And it does multilingual bit very well!

For some reason decided to give Kenshi a shot. Big mistake. What a timesink!

FWIW - starting a reply allows you to copy the original text.

OpenRC represent!

You won’t win this one here. Lemmy is disappointingly facebook-like in terms of their seemingly endless desire to be told what to do every step of their lives.

I realise the numbers are sort of made up, but in general I fully agree. I do sometimes think that politicians regulate for the sake of it, as if justifying their existence.

Nexus 5 represent!

A bit of a PSA for LG owners running webOS:

I rooted my tv and now have adless youtube, but apparently root is not a prerequisite - there also installation using dev mode. Admitedly, haven’t tried it and it’s probably less convenient to get it set up, but then it should be a one time thing.

How do you control it? Any fancy integration or just good old mouse?
