While I’m not able to give it a try right now (just woke up, need to get ready for work…) I just wanna thank you for sharing your work and contributing to the community !!

It looks neat and simple :) !!!

IMO The Fedi Origami looks waaay better than the 3 cat but holes. Even the first iteration looks somehow better, even though less “professional”?

Naaaah it won’t save you from your scattered X tabs… I’m in the exact same situation and it’s mostly an organization problem or focus on a single task !

I somehow managed to get a bit better by simply to force myself to clean my whole browser before I shut down my PC.

Now that I know a bit more about security and obfuscation I rather not use any pirated games/software anymore. If they know how to crack/reverse engineer some complicated stuff, you can be sure they add some shady stuff in it.

• silent cryptominer
• info stealer
• hidden DNS ads requests
• trojan
• …

They need somehow a way to earn there living expanses ? It’s a service we think it’s free but nothing comes without a counterpart.

Yep, Debian for sure ! 3 years ago I settled for debian on an old spare laptop, It’s still cruisen with more than 21 containers !! Sure I had a few fresh installs because skill issues, lack of proper configuration, user mistakes… But it’s probably the easiest to maintain and learn as a beginner !

No idea what’s your level and how close you’re with computers and how much time you have to spare, but don’t be afraid to make mistakes and try a few things out.

If you are like me just a plain old geek who knew his way arround computers and used Hamachi back in the days, thinking you were a HAKKER… Get ready to get your ass kicked !

While self-hosting and de-googling is fun, it also has alot of negative things:

• Time consuming
• Involves ALOT of Searxing/Reading
• Debuggin (kinda…)
• Learning the basics of at least 1 scripting language (consider bash your ally)
• It’s an infinite rabbit hole that will suck you in and sometimes get to your nerves…

One of the best advice I could give you along the way is, If you’re stuck on a bug or something isn’t working as expected in your setup and It seems you couldn’t find any answer or similar issues on the web, you absolutly have to take a break, not a 5min cigarette break… A few hours bicycle/sleep break !!!

The next day you will for sure find a solution !!

Good luck, have fun and don’t forget to take time for yourself and people arround you !

There is always going to be a divide between people who have done restaurant closings and those that haven’t.

Naah every service that expects that “the client is king” philosophie have sentiment for all kind of people working in the same area.

I mean, I did retail jobs a few years ago, and still today when I go shopping or at restaurants or any other service, I always chose my time accordinlgy to not bother them to much… Because I know how people can be stupid assholes…

But from time to time you get some chill lovely creatures and that always brightened my day ☀️

Yeah, that’s what most people don’t understand… People should do some shrooms/LSD to get out of their head and back to their heart.

This would solve most if not all the cognitive dissonance we strugle with every day…

Raspberry PIs run ARN

Sooo RPis are now processing proteins ? XD sorry I’m bit drunk… Thank for the short insight, was too lazy to click !!

Ohhh didn’t knew that ! Thanks for the info! Although it makes sense :).

Will edit my comment !

PS: Yeah, when my internet went down I was like “huh what the fuck?” XD

I don’t mind if my server is going to have to transcode for most clients

I mean AV1 is very well supported on most clients/new devices these days. While I do not know any good groups that only encodes in AV1, I personally download high quality BD rips and re-encode them to SVT-AV1 without any visual quality loss (for my personal taste and perspective).

I’m not an audiophile or videophile and do not have the necessary devices to decode high end 1080p nor 4k video streams.

About AV1 I think only iOS devices do not have a native software/hardware AV1 decoder (I migh be wrong here).

As for your question, I wish there were more encoders that do AV1 :/

You can always try out their free Tier.

While you get limited bandwidth it’s really okayish for normal use. Do not try to connect over a peer2peer connection, it’s disabled in the free tier and your connection goes "Wooosh! *

I’m very Happy with their free tier, I even route my mobile’s traffic through the same VPN connection with wireguard and some iptables.

*Edit

It’s still opt-in by default, but as I said:

• They do not use google analytics anymore
• You get a text saying how to opt-out when installing before anything is send to their analytic server

They are also very transparent on what is send. That’s actually not that bad.

Homebrew enables Google Analytics by default. Sending telemetry without even warning users to opt out, was a bad look, even before Google was convicted as a monopoly.

That’s not true anymore. All previously saved Google analytics have been deleted and when you install hombrew for the first time you get an info box about how to opt-out.

Soo nya.sii is going down soon… Uuhg !

Like others said the arr stack is probably what you’re looking for. If you’re only looking to rename files sonarr will fill you in ! Look at the documentation, I only use sonarr to rename my local files !

Other thing to consider, is this cool github project TVMV which also renames the files but you need to register to create an API key from TMDB (its free and you can fill in dummy informations). But it’s less customizable. I’m only using it to rename files if their name is in a different language than English.

About metadata, I don’t know if there’s a bulk and recursive metadata editor and dunno if sonarr fills in the gap. However, mkvtool and bash scripting is probably going to be your tools here.

How I would go about it:

• rename your files with sonarr putting all the important stuff in the filename
• bash script with mkvtool to strip and copy portions of the title name and add them in the corresponding metadata field.

There’s probably a better way to stripe metadata from sites like tvdb but I’m not a dev so it’s totally out of my scope and knowledge.

I like linkding alot for it’s simplicity, but can’t the hell of me make a good/clean instance… It gets messy very quickly if you save some interesting links which are not directly connected to something or if you have 2 different subjects in the same instance.

Something like group tagging would make alot of sense :/

Traefik gang here 👊 !

But only because it works so easily with docker !! I remember a time where I though that you need a diploma and read/learn/understand a 10000 page dictionary to make nginx work properly.

Also hated the syntax of nginx… It can look so ugly and gibberish :/.

But I do believe Nginx is superior and more mature in many more aspects than Treafik. Still, Traefik is a breeze and is in IMO way easier to configure with docker than Nginx.

Wow perfect write-up ! Thanks for your hard work !

I hope someone will be motivated enough to translate it to Treafik ! I’m not versed enough to actually mess with the config files on such level… Let alone to understand Nginx’s syntax 🫠 but very cool for Nginx users !!!

Thanks :)) I did tried it out a few month ago. It works as expected, but I was looking for something with a nice webUI wich pulls the whole changelog before updating a container.

An AIO web interface that give all the changes and expected bugs or issues. I know there isn’t something like that… That’s why I just look out for github notifications with an RSS feed and read through all the changes/issues before doing any updates.

KISS ! That’s the way I’m doing it. Although it kinda gets more difficult to keep track of every docker image update after you have a dozen containers.

Thinking of something that could keep track and give me a nice notification about the changes and give a link to the github page before updating the container.
