You kind of have to take a step back and just be impressed for a minute.

For this man with all his fuckups and perceived incompetence, he’s done an amazing job of installing yes men and cronies at every avenue that could have enforced any consequences for his actions. Can you imagine what it would be like to see someone apply a similar energy to actually improving our country.

The whole tattoo scandal might have ended up being a plus, it came to light too late to replace him so now he has to lean in hard or his chances are entirely gone.

Can you imagine a world where Democrats are going to go all in on competing on policy?

That’s what a lot of people honestly voted for. All they care about is that the news tells them they’re all 100% here illegally and they probably don’t know anyone affected personally so anything that would shake them doesn’t ever really make it to them and the news they watch never reports anything negative about it.

Plus side, the increase in functionality with technitium is drastic. Down side, the increase in functionality is drastic…

You can do everything you’d want to do with pihole with technitium instead, but there’s a lot of additional advanced features that will have you reading a lot of documentation.

Nature restoring balance and all that.

My first thought after this was in fact ‘Oh shit, MTG really is going to run for president isn’t she’.

Still fucks with my head when she says things that make sense. Are we sure she didn’t have a stroke or something?

I tried to never go to Liveleak back in the day, but there was definitely a place of it.

Nowadays, anything that tries to replicate the idea seems to just slowly becomes a Nazi bar.

Hmm, you might be right, it looks like there are plans for a premium subscription service with pay walled features after the beta is over.

Hard pass.

You do kind of have to admire her seeming to stick to her principles. It’s just a shame that those principles are usually deranged.

But see, now, it’s ruining the wrong people’s lives.

I’ve been using Technitium for about 3 years and I’m with you.

Whenever I think I get it, I search for the solution to a problem I’m having and see the developer respond and feel like I get less than half the things in the explanation. My setup definitely works and it has never failed me… but there are a lot of things where I don’t understand why at all and yeah I am also using maybe 10% of the options available. I’m not sure I’ll ever get past the intimidating phase.

Oh shit, there is a second one, I thought you were joking.

Are you trying to serve higher than 1080p? I have heard that 4k can be rough, but I avoid that personally because it also dramatically limits the amount of media I can store. Not sure of your actual bandwidth, but the raw bandwidth required on regular 1080p streams should be relatively light while utilizing modern codecs and you can also limit the per-stream bandwidth in your remote access settings.

I’m in the US, but I have pretty shit upstream bandwidth and I’ve served 7 people at once before. It pushed it a bit, but plex managed it. If you are doing 4k content though, yeah, that’s going to be rough with anything and I have no good advice.

There are some cluster based experiments with Plex, but they’re mostly focused on distributing transcoding. There’s also a lot of projects around clustering locally with kubernetes/etc but I think that would be painful with your setup. Closest option I can think of is jellyswarrm with multiple discrete servers ‘swarmed’ together, this is also super beta and very new. You’d have to combine it with something to move files between the local servers, it’s going to be weird.

Why do you feel like you need more than one media server? A singular server can serve quite a lot of content for a good sized quantity of people.

I dunno, feel like its better than random. When my dog didn’t like someone, there usually ended up being a good reason. Might be onto something with the dog voting system.

Bruce Wayne goes to therapy, not Batman, it’s different (canonically).

Republican governor still, not as solid as you’d think.
