I have Plex running alongside Jellyfin.
When transcoding video, Plex uses an extra 5 watts of power. Jellyfin uses an extra 55 watts.
Jellyfin also has security holes for accessing videos via URL without being authenticated.
I don’t feel like Jellyfin is ready for being exposed to the internet.
I had a 212j for about 10 years before I got a 720+.
The j series are so underpowered the dashboard took literal minutes to load.
The + series is extremely energy efficient, but still powerful. I was running a Plex server along with a Terraria server on it and had no hiccups.
Now they were designed nearly a decade apart, but still. The + series is the way to go, don’t get anything else if you go with Synology.
There’s no such thing as too simple to document. If you spent time learning how to install it, you’ll need to relearn it if you want to make any changes in the future. If you don’t leave at least some notes as to why you make some decisions, you’ll have to redo your work.
It’s also good to make notes on every configuration setting. That forces you to understand why the settings are the way they are. If you have a -f in a docker config and you don’t have any understanding of why that’s there, you might not know if it’s a development flag for getting things set up, or if it’s a critical part of your environment.
It is especially important if any of those parts are exposed to the public Internet. You might have a config set to allow unauthenticated connections and not know it.
Just waiting for it to hit $20. I already played it through once, so I’m definitely not paying more than that to play again.
Last update was March 2024. Over a year ago.
There is an API that you can call to sync Kobo e-readers with calibre.

It just depends on if this would work with your current thoughts on how your app works.
I would be interested in something that can sync with Calibre-Web
Kinda cool how the configs work, but it feels like you need to rely a little too much on having premade configs available for the things you want to do.
Then a Mac user forwards your email to someone and your email header doesn’t show your email address in the forward and nobody down the line knows who sent the original email.
Cause when your email gets forwarded, the header doesn’t always go with it.
I’ve had to start putting my email address in my signature due to people not being able to contact me cause of that.
I guess the discussion is over, cause I find no fault with these selections.
SEND THE AGENT THAT ARRESTED HIM TO JAIL. YOU DON’T HAVE TO GO AFTER THE BOSSES, SEND THE FUCKERS DOING THE DIRTY WORK TO JAIL AND THIS WILL STOP.
The GOP (and some Democrats) have been demonizing her since day 1. It would be a major uphill battle cause they know how to start the messaging early.
Kwikset keypad works great for me. There’s a keyhole, a real button keypad, and the batteries last a while with quite a bit of warning before they’re actually dead.
I mean… Electronics and the Internet are also following the laws of physics. But I get what you mean, levers should be the only activation, and gravity should be the only requirement.
That being said, electronics in our devices do tend to reduce the amount of water and power that appliances use. Dumb devices are extremely inefficient, even though there are fewer points of failure.
It sucks that a 1950’s fridge can still function just fine today, but it also is a bigger strain on the power grid, and a leak in the refrigerant would destroy the ozone.
He’s talking about how Jeff said he needs a dishwasher because hand washing dishes takes 1.5 hours a day otherwise (and is a waste of water and energy)

Check out this arstechnica article on AudioBookshelf. Should cover most of what you need to get started.
You have to get the file from Amazon first in a format that deDRM works on. That’s the trouble here.
Kindle for PC still works, but you have to find an old version and disable updates.
