UK conservatives at the time were split regarding Brexit. They put the vote out to the public and the conservative party campaigned to stay possibly naively expecting the vote to be in their favour.

Cute pussy

I’ve not using a free streaming site for years, but when I did they were bags of shite. Buffering, unavailable, etc. There are apps that aggregate the various sites that try and find a wanted show on multiple sites, but they weren’t much better.

I see self-hosted streaming as just an extension of your “save videos to a storage drive” option. We are just extending the access of that to where its wanted.

I’m just using nginx as a reverse proxy. I’m actually using Emby, which Jellyfin is a fork of. I had issues with Jellyfin playback and wasn’t patient enough to fix at the time, but I’ll try again over xmas.

Pretty much. Personally, I spun up another VM and had the two running alongside each other for a few weeks. Doing it this way allows you to split the work. First get the base server up and running, do some testing and get familiar, then migrate a client.

It took more effort to get family to switch their client than it did to do the server.

Why? Plex was one of the original self hosted streaming platforms and for a long time was pretty much the only option. We have more options now, and those still on Plex, I imagine, are because they don’t have the time or capacity to perform a migration. So they stick with what they’ve got until it breaks.

Maybe this will be the one that breaks it.

I was a Plex holdout until 3 months ago. I wanted off Plex for the last 2 years but just never had the time.

For those waiting, don’t be like me, it’s easier than you think.

Cute 🥰

Wasn’t expecting this answer. Can you elaborate?

I hate my country government over this. Why are most the world powers such shit people. It really gets me down.

This is the problem with social media, especially Lemmy and Reddit. It is the default stance to assume a neutral comment is hostile. Why do we all argue so much? I’ve been there, but I’m trying to be kinder online. I think it’s a systemic problem and I don’t know the solution.

Yeah I carry that DNS server around with me in the other pocket /s

He needs to be brushed. I’d love to brush him. There would be fur everywhere lol 😹

I am sorry you don’t have the support you deserve, even from family. That must make a difficult life even more so.

My wife has cerebral palsy and in the last 5 years has developed chronic back pain that has taken away what little mobility and dignity she had.

It has been upsetting to watch her decline. Doctors seemingly unable to alleviate her symptoms, but we keep trying.

I am head over heals in love with her. The disability doesn’t change that. I am there for her every need, day or night. We appreciate each other and spend all our time together. I wish you could find someone to do the same for you.

Why are the US meddling in this?

It’s practical and does it’s job. But the interface is jank. I still use it. But if a modern alternative came along I’d jump.

Wish guacamole didn’t look like total ass. Otherwise a great product.

Looking for a modern alternative though.

Yeah same. Water in a pan begins to sound like it’s going to boil soon pretty much as soon as it’s turned on.

Those that prefer gas over induction must have had some crappy induction hob to compare to.

Sorry, you’re right. The point I was trying to clumsily make is that It didn’t have the effect that the RAF were aiming for. Which was to break morale and more importantly, stem the civilian population production of war. If anything, production increased, despite the terror.

I’m incredibly ignorant on WW2, and in general knowledge, being a nerd and all, my brain is full of Linux. However I have recently been watching the World War in Color series. I’ve been watching several other similar series and I’m totally hooked now.

The run-up to WW2 and current US affairs look strikingly similar. I look at the TV, then my phone, then back at the TV and “it’s the same picture”.

The British turned entire cities into flame tornados during ww2, and it galvanised the Germans rather than deter them.
