Generally, I do not. But I’m sure there is a scenario where it is used as a rude way to terminate a conversation.

How have they doubled their prices?

HDD manufacturers have been increasing their prices as of late for the same products that were previously cheaper

Nope. Most recent delta is a decrease of $0.0000022 per MB. And the general trend has been decreasing for decades.

my users can watch on their mobile devices for free using a license I paid for once close to a decade ago.

You sound like a boomer talking about the house they bought decades ago for $75,000.

It’s not the same at all.

Plex practically doubled their prices to access features that users previously had for free.

Can’t remember the last time a HDD manufacturer put previously free features behind a paywall or when a Mullvad doubled its prices.

Not a dumb question at all. There isn’t any software associated with my DAS. It attaches via a USB and mounts like a regular drive. It does have its own power supply so it stays on even when the computer is shut down. Then when the computer restarts, the drive mounts again.

It’s basically a giant attached hard drive.

Please don’t turn this community into a meme dumping ground. You can go to r/piracy for that.

I have a qnap tr-004 das. Works great. Raid5 configuration. Attached to my server. AMA.

This looks neat. Thanks for sharing.

Outside on the BBQ lol

I’d start with proxmox.

What distro are you using? JF recommends Ubuntu.

FWIW, I found TechHut’s Jellyfin YouTube tutorials super easy to follow when I was just starting out. He also has a video on FStab which you might eventually find handy. I haven’t watched this stuff in long time though so it might be outdated. https://www.youtube.com/c/TechHutHD

i literally have to spell everything out

Yes. You do. That’s just the way it goes.

It doesn’t matter if you’re doing OSS or looking for venture capital, you need to sell your project/product to users. In an OSS project, prospective users need to understand why they should invest their time. You always need an elevator pitch or one liner. In github, the elevator pitch is the “About” section on the right hand side of the page (on desktop).

If you want to see what a good sales job looks like for Open Source, check out hoarder. It’s one of the best I’ve seen and certainly one of the main reasons it has received over 13 thousand stars in about one year.

Most of us started with the TRaSH Guides.

Also it’s not Linux or Windows; it’s Docker (which works on both Linux and Windows).

Also check out YouTube. There are a lot of great tutorials on there.

Why even take the risk? Just talk about something else.

I don’t do it for privacy, although that is a benefit.

I use RSS for convenience (all sources like news, YT, link aggregators, etc. are in the same place) and also to escape “the algorithm“. With RSS, I am in more control over what I see rather than what the Apple/Google news algorithm wants me to see.

Also it helps to prevent doom scrolling. When you’re at the end of your feed, that’s it. There’s no more. You find something else to do.

Just generally, a more efficient use of my time.

Here you go.

You can use yt-dlp to download just the audio stream. After you install it, open your terminal and run:

yt-dlp -x --audio-format mp3 https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLHW_tnxUzXEbQqtEVK0EyvYKM2yC4fsr

Stranger - Korean police/legal drama. Fun show to watch.

Rewatched some of Sopranos S06

Started Orphan Black. Only watched the first episode but it’s just meh so far.

Better to use something like ultra.cc. Their Tank Streaming or App Vault plans are what you should look at.

Don’t forget to scrub and checksum your drive

What is the process for doing this?

Does anyone know about the team in this project? I’m concerned that development stalls after a little while when things get hard or they get tired of it.

For me, customizing a new browser is a heavy lift so I don’t usually jump headfirst into browsers without first knowing a little about the team’s background.
