To any democrats paying attention: if you serve Elon, you don’t get my vote.

I think the democrats will face terrible consequences if Elon funds them.

You cannot electronically filter out sound. That’s not what they do. They just emit the same sound they hear in the opposing phase. This is risky with sonic weapons.

There’s an Archer reference in this somewhere…

Elon is a brilliant businessman. When he was only 12, he started his first business as a bridge troll. Now at…whatever he is, he’s being kicked out of a country he literally bought.

We technically never beat the south. We made peace with them so they could infect the union and bring it down again later. The felling of Nazis also don’t happen at all, we literally hired them. The fall of nazism in Germany was a thing, but the United States wasn’t as important in making that happen as you think. We were more useful in helping rebuild countries since we still had a functioning economy and industry.

And until Trump is dead, he hasn’t been defeated. He will just keep coming back. The grifter needs to stay in power to avoid consequences this will just keep happening.

So what? We have plenty on non-immigrants that want him dead. His own diet wants him dead. This is a nothing burger.

Well the dems would know.

I’ll take Business majors making technical decisions for 400, Alex.

Build your own. Every out of the box solution can and will screw you.

It’s oddly comforting to buy into the idea that killing one man could solve the world’s problems but it’s not reality. Trump is just a fall guy at this point. He has very little remaining mental facilities. He’s a husk. And his absence will only be mourned by his cultish followers.

The GOP are totally cashing in on this. They are the real villains here and are just using Trump to get their way. If he dies, they will toss some other obedient dumbass on the pile and continue.

Luigi got a conversation going and scared rich assholes by pointing out they are literally living in the same hell they built themselves, surrounded by all those tortured souls. But Luigi is not some kind of Jason Bourne. He’s not going to take out the Republican party. No one person can do that.

That being said, we do technically outnumber them. And while distasteful everyone does technically get one chance to murder whoever they want. There are consequences sure but at this point there are consequences for waiting for another Luigi that may never come too.

Personally, I’d like to see another attempt just to have everyone argue over wether it was another political stunt or not.

That only applies to the French. That can’t happen here. ™

Yes! Access the webUI, delete the servers it finds then readd them.

So yes and no on that recommendation. If you are just hosting content for local consumption, transcoding is unnecessary since you have the network bandwidth to just throw the data directly to whatever is playing it. So weaker hardware is perfectly fine. If you are doing lots of concurrent streams or there is network access outside the house, the limited bandwidth can become an issue so transcoding suddenly matters and more powerful hardware comes into play.

I have used many ARM SBCs and a few low-power Intel boards like my current N100 and they’ve all been fine. While I generally dislike Intel their quicksync is very useful in media server configurations. If you are going to be doing a lot of live transcodes, I would consider throwing an ARC GPU in there and having jellyfin utilize the transcode capabilities of the Intel GPU instead of the CPU as it can handle more simultaneous streams. Beware the xe driver as there are issues with it in certain configurations. Same with HuC/GuC. The older standard driver is more likely to just work. Jellyfin and the archlinux wiki have great documentation on this.

NVIDIA used to be top tier here but their transcode tech is pretty old by this point and the quality, while acceptable, isn’t the best. Intel beats them. AMD, generally a preference for me, has a terrible media transcoder. Easily the worst quality of all of them. For raw compute and pushing pixels, AMD all the way but for transcode I would pass.

So to summarize: cheap out if it’s just local access. Transcode is pretty much unneeded. If it’s outside the home and/or had many streams at the same time, Intel for the GPU and AMD for the CPU.

Skip the NAS. They all suck. Roll your own server out of literally anything. Install jellyfin. Enjoy

It depends what you want to do with it. What do you want the server to do?

icloud relay doesn’t affect this because it shuts off when my VPN activates and when at home, icloud relay doesnt affect local LAN IP addresses anyway.

But third party apps don’t share a cache.

The VPN was disabled when switching to WiFi already.

AppleTV and MacBook are on Ethernet. Iphone is failing on both WiFi and cellular using WireGuard to VPN into the local network. The logs say the login attempts are actually successful.
