Same, it's fantastic. As long as you don't need to support as many requests per second on your hardware as something like NGINX could, Caddy is the way to go.

The Jellyfin devs have chosen for it to be a community/hobby project in order to avoid perverse incentives. That's a completely valid choice. There's a reason JF is the only mainstream media server solution that's contin

Note that the lead dev of the official android clients does accept personal donations (via Github Sponsors and Buy Me A Coffee), but does not take requests on how to prioritize the work because he wants to keep it strictly as a hobby.

I quite agree. Any sufficiently self-stereotypical format for prose is grating to me after enough time reading or listening to it. Humans are best engaged by mixing up the length, style, and tone of their sentences, in my experience. LLMs d

Right, which was my point. They used Linq to get around the limitations of an ORM more-so than using an ORM itself (by fetching an entity and accessing its 'field'). They're evading the N+1 problem by writing a query by hand

Isn't Linq a lazy-loading interface by default? The example they gave was a Linq query. I'm not a C# user in my professional life so I'm happy to be corrected, BTW, just citing the source of my misinterpretation

I mean, you're definitely still writing a query in this case, just using a lazy-loading C# interface. An ORM in the traditional sense abstracts the details of the query itself fully away in favor of an object-oriented interface.

I use a reverse proxy for Jellyfin remote access, people saying you need a VPN or Tailscale (which is also a VPN) are unnecessarily paranoid IMO. That said, I'm a software engineer with more than 10 years of experience and a lifelong t

I've always struggled with writing by hand primarily because I tend to over-tense my grip on a pencil/pen even with an ergonomic grip attached. I learned to touch type pretty early on, so back in school before they let us bring la

It does work with Kodi, you just need to add a client-side plugin for Kodi to support it: https://github.com/SgtJalau/service.jellyskip

And you can stream to your phone. And I set my elderly aunt up to be able to stream it from her Apple TV ~80 miles away from me. And there are phone apps that let you download stuff in advance to watch on a plane. And I've been able to

Analog is certainly better, so long as you're OK with some noise.

by entropicdrifter 2mo ago
I think it's well worth noting that while streaming does imply a full download, it doesn't actually render the full sized download on the client device at any one time, it's simply cached and then the oldest parts are evicted

You mean to tell me that anyone can own a nail-gun? We can't have people buying their own nail-guns, next thing you know they might build things that aren't up to code!

Most people listen to music in their car. More compressed audio means less fiddling with the volume knob as you drive, regardless of normalization done by Spotify et al. Anyhow that's my theory

Re:choice of display, I'm betting it's for power saving. If you need a better display you can use the HDMI port or DisplayPort USB-C port and just hook it right up to a monitor/TV

It can be a useful tool and an economic bubble at the same time. The dot com bubble was due at least in part to the overbuilding of fiber infrastructure in the US.

Sounds like it's a fairer system that would be harder to corrupt. You're right, it'll never be implemented because we're totally infested by regulatory capture.

A gargantuan "everything company" like Amazon is the very definition of a monopoly. In any functional society this beast would have long since been broken up before becoming dominant in multiple industries. At this point, they&#x2
