A guy on the internet who does things sometimes
Edit mount options to refer to drives by their label or their user-friendly name and never worry about this again
For example: /mnt/Speedy, /mnt/Game-SSD, etc
Chromecast w/ google TV, sorry, so like a fire stick but different branding. Once you’re signed into apps on it it’ll remember you cuz it’s a full android device
even if you’re already logged in, apps do not find and recognize your local server without internet access.
You set your server in those app’s settings to not use direct connect and thus they are being routed through Plex’s servers
When you select your Plex libraries from the drop-down there are usually 2 options, one will be the local IP and say (direct), that’s always the best choice if you’re able
I just turned off my Internet connection to my Chromecast and tested, no issues with accessing my media
who are familiar with technical terminology and several concepts and steps are left out and implied rather than explained.
Said it before and I’ll say it again: had to manually install some software to make Steam tinker launch work, and the instructions for installing it were to download and prepare the GitHub folder, then “do the usual and move the completed file to …”
Ive used git in the past and it still took me multiple minutes to figure out they meant the “make && build” command. Why was that so hard to fucking write??
Finally got it working just in time for life to implode again so I just powered it down and unplugged everything again.
This time I’m probably just gonna huck it out a window or into the trash
I just finished converting my old gaming PC, dude, I can’t afford to set new goals like this
sighs
Fine…
Absolutely insane that anyone would do this
Meanwhile I’m dropping my config into my local AI asking “why the FUCK do I suddenly have no permission to write to a folder I’ve been using for days?!?!” Only to have the air go "hey dipshit you put /data/downloads in one spot and /data/download in the other, that’s why, try not making typos that are real words in the future (I told my tech support persona to be mildly annoyed and in need of more coffee because I’ve never known an IT person not to be those things)
Put brand new drive into system, begin clone
When clone is done, pull drive out and place in a cardboard box
Take that box to my off-site storage (neighbors house) and bury it
(In truth I couldn’t afford to get to the 1 off-site in time and have potentially tragically lost almost 4TB of data that, while replacable, will take time because I don’t fucking remember what I even had lol. Gonna take the drives to a specialist tho cuz I think the plates are fine and it’s the actual reading mechanism that’s busted)
Maybe this invention can be used on places where trees cannot lives, but I’d still take a city with trees over a city full of green tanks.
These in the spots where trees once stood but were too destructive & trees everywhere else imo. Cool tech future AND trees, plus these are benches too it looks like
trees dont ruin ANY human infrastructure
I think you mean all, as this reads more like “nuh uh, trees don’t ruin anything”
But smarter urbanism is possible and in fact does exist.
And those are not the norm, so for places that don’t plan to just destroy what’s already there and start anew, this is an option
Oh yeah
I’m one of those elites who don’t have allergies so I tend to forget 😎😎😎
Because there’s no serious answers being given even though there are at least 2:
I just started porting a DnD Beyond campaign into it and using it to store homebrew world info for a future game, but so far it’s been basically everything I ever wanted from Roll20 or DDB, but self-hosted and they give you access to the code so you can just… Code in features you want
Thinking about pirating the FFXIV TTRPG when someone puts it up and making it in Foundry if it’s not already done by someone smarter eventually lol
Foundry VTT (I know it’s technically for a game but it’s technically a virtual tabletop and not a game itself)
AI Chatbots for tech support
I technically self-host an image generation AI through my main home PC, but that’s made less accessable and only on when I specifically demand it via ssh lol
Occasionally I’ll throw a temp website up for local events for like event schedules or whatever, an easily accessable and editable html file or whatever
Yeah, they shot an email to everyone with an account, it’s pretty normal. It explicitly says:
Alternatively, server owners can buy a Plex pass
Which is pretty clear language
Sweet fuck am i glad I’m running mine self-hosted and running one of the dolphin models so I can get cool shit like detailed instructions for drug growing and selling or say “fuck” and not have it get angwy at me (tried Gemma and while it’s fast… Fucking oof what a locked in corpo AI)
For me I stopped playing because the switch is a horrifically uncomfortable console that can barely render the game at a playable frame rate, let alone a good one
Really should emulate it sometime
Which, again, basically all Anti-Cheat works on Linux
The example given, GTA, uses BattlEye, which according to someone who knows more about using it than me is literally a checkbox for Linux support
Anti-Cheat not working on Linux is the developers/publishers being assholes almost exclusively
No shit, almost like I said that myself?
Idgaf if other people consider it reasonable when engaging with it: it’s just true
Prolly cuz of how much time and energy it takes. I have a larger washer and it’s 2 loads minimum to wash my fucking set
