Faceman2K23, to quarks in What's happening with modding here??
@Faceman2K23@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

I fully expect to see this post removed soon, just like all the others that TRY to talk about moderation. Hell I was banned once for talking about a post being removed in a thread on another community on a separate instance.

I can understand pointless or irrelevant comments being removed from Daystrom, sure, but regular posts talking about character analysis or being critical of something are wrongly removed in my opinion.

I lusted after the top end Clies with the OLED screens. I had a T665C Clie, a Treo650, and countless pocket PC models including the HTC ultimate (Imate JasJar technically) and several others before android and the Iphone came around.

I’m into model live steam engines, I’ve dreamed about a model live steam setup but never had the room (or funds) for such a build.

Faceman2K23, to selfhosted in How do I convert my videos to h265 without melting my current, shit, hardware
@Faceman2K23@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

An intel nuc with an IGPU from the last few generations would do it no problem (even a pentium or i3 from the last few generations would be better than what you have by the sounds of it).

Or you can grab a cheap used quadro p600 or gt1050 (minimum model with hardware H265 NVENC support) and use that for transcoding or run an app like tdarr, unmanic or fileflows to convert your library to a direct streamable format in the background.

Why are you even requiring transcode is also something to look at, you should be trying to get your playback devices to play the raw files directly, that means a solid network infrastructure and properly configured software. If they are physically incapable of playing your 4k media then you need to look at upgrading them.

This all applies whether you are running plex, jellyfin, emby or whatever else.

didn’t take me long to go from 2tb being a lot to 100tb being not enough.

Faceman2K23, to asklemmy in What's a scam that's so normalized that we don't even realize it's a scam anymore?
@Faceman2K23@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

Those ink tank printers are their own kind of scam though, they clog if you dont use them frequently enough, and they use a non-replaceable dump pad when cleaning and purging that effectively bricks the printers when it is considred full, which is usually just a timer, not an actual sensor.

conservative governments in Australia have been trying to kill off medicare and other public services for a long time. the problem is our progressive governments have refused to push back hard enough as it always results in election losses.

Basically the people are stupid, the media influences them, and the government is too spineless to take the risk needed to fix things.

Faceman2K23, to selfhosted in How do you organize your DHCP clients?
@Faceman2K23@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

I have a few vlan subnets, one for IOT devices (smart junk, automation, media players etc), one for general LAN devices (mostly computers, NAS etc), one for VMs and other services and one for guest access. all with their own fairly simple firewall rules to eachother and to the web. there are also matching Wifi networks for IOT, Main and Guest that are on those Vlans.

As for DHCP, I tend to set the DHCP ranges for xxx.100 - xxx.254 and anything below 100 is for static allocations. all in standard 192.168.x.x ranges, no need to go bigger than that. I only have IPv6 for the VMs for testing cause i’m still learning how to use that properly and safely.

The algorithm seemed to have turned against her a few years back.

That’s why I say arguably… I don’t support doxxing, but this was an eye-for-an-eye situation as they must have known the damage they could potentially cause.

Faceman2K23, to android in Google is desperate to sell Pixel Tablets, pushing ads via notifications
@Faceman2K23@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

I think the speaker stand is a good product for the google nest users out there, but it should have maybe been a separate option or something.

@Faceman2K23@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

I would have thought it was selling pretty well, I know the android tablet market is a small niche but it seems like a strong contender, particularly for the google nest users out there?

I suspect they intended to release it earlier, when the home office and video chat boom was still going on but missed the mark and now have more stock than they wanted.

@Faceman2K23@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

prowlarr works great stand alone too, the manual search and indexer/tracker database are excellent and much easier to use than Jackett.

She understands very well the fragility of her situation in regards to the CCP, and the Vice reporters going against her wishes was downright dangerous.

Her response was harsh and arguably too far, but giving the editor in cheif of vice a tiny taste of the fear and discomfort she and her partner would have felt after they refused to remove sensitive details from the article and video was in many ways justified.
