  • I actually run nox as my primary client because my server is headless so this is certainly relevant. Well, sort of headless, I broadcast a vnc server then use mullvad to manage qbittorrent thru localhost:8080.

    Or if I wanna manage it from a different computer, create a ssh route to the server from that computer, and well… do the same thing as above.

    The limitation was that I need to open a web browser for both of those scenarios, and I just want to do everything thru the terminal. I know, I’m weird. Ideally I’d love to have a fully featured CLI interface but for now just simple stuff.

    Just don’t wanna go reinventing the wheel. But if my project is original then I will continue to work on it and share it once it’s a bit more polished. The community can always use more projects, right?



  • I have an LG TV. Yes, the jellyfin client app is available in the LG store. You’ll just need to install it and tell it to connect to “IP_OF_YOUR_JELLYFIN_SERVER:8096”.

    Alternatively, the Jellyfin server can broadcast as a DLNA server (in settings somewhere) and your TV’s Jellyfin client may automatically detect the server in that case.

    Speaking to your other question, I use a Sabrent hard drive bay with some 20TiB drives setup as raid 5 logical volumes. It’s a good setup for me.


  • Break your system down with a block diagram. Define the minimum functions and properties for each block. Then create an inventory from that.

    In short, break down your problem into smaller bits. No one knows your requirements and vision better than you. You can do it.

    I use a laptop connected to some external drives managed by a Sabrent 5-Bay Hard Drive Docking Station. The laptop runs Ubuntu Server and hosts media via Jellyfin on raid5 logical volumes shared between disks (to increase read speed).

    I learn by writing documentation. Learn how you learn, that information will be priceless in value to you.

    Next time you take a break from licking the boot, read a history book. Do you know how many corpses are in the ground today because a few folks said, “We shouldn’t have to work seven days a week.” A fucking lot.

    Thanks to them, we have the concept of “weekends”.

    Change is written in blood.

    This is not a one-off example, there are thousands.

    That is reality. Welcome to it.







  • Another one bites the dust.

    I admit it, I once assumed Elon was a genius.
    (events happen)
    Okay, not a genius, but a good businessman.
    (events happen)
    Okay, a bad businessman, a good PR person.
    (events happen)
    Okay, a bad PR person, but not a Nazi.
    (events happen)
    Well fuck, he’s a Nazi supporting conspiracy theorist.

    God damn, if I was that wrong about one person. I’m just gonna stop having opinions about famous people. It’s all smoke and mirrors.
