This is the real answer to everyone. Limit access to the Bluetooth connection or don’t use the headunit.

You can get a car, just don’t connect your phone to it.

Are there any ways to support workers on a per-production scope?

Ugh, time to switch is coming… How to protect my android tv… Do i need to go back to media pc?

I ended up going with a synology Nas as i didn’t need high performance CPU and wanted a turn key solution. For what you get hardware wise, its low value, but if you factor in software and support, it works out to OK value.

You mentioned your parents will be using this. What services are you hoping to host? Outside network access is another rabbit hole.

Check the hardware requirements of the services you plan the host, but from what ir sounds like, you would likely be better served with decent pc 8th gen Intel with the storage in a 4 bay NAS or internal to the PC.

I suggested 8th gen Intel as a min for video transcoding (if needed)

Running on a synology, but it’s not cheap. I like having direct access to my stuff if I can. Next step is cloud backup of my local , i think borg or something is very popular.

I’m going to say that self hosting becomes a fun hobby once you get your core services running. Core in this case means the services that are bringing you into selfhosting.

This is anotherr way to sample something before committing it to storage.

You can try using Subtitle Edit to convert the subtitles to SRT, but it’s work. https://www.nikse.dk/subtitleedit

Nice 👍

This thread is great.

I’m just going to say, you don’t need to run everything from one machine.

Very true

Cloudflare tunnel works for my jellyfin server.

Yeah, they do, but no mobile app support… I don’t think

Think of the children

Thanks. Just got a synology and want to try replacing googlee docs. The CODE docker looks promising… Need to understand how to get tunneling working first. 😂

I need to see about using a VPN for my local network…

As a nob, the setup steps look do able, but I think I need to get jellyseerr first and then this.

I may need to run my server on a PC to get VPN connection… Hmm… Thanks👍

My biggest issue with Dell is the inability to upgrade the power supply 😭

Which way are you migrating?

I’ve never heard of this, but what happens if it shuts down? How is this really self hosting vs getting an generic we hosting service and storing files there ?

You got it all wrong, everyone is on Threads … Nah, I just subscribed to learn about starting some self hosting. I’m running a local media server, which was easy, but want to branch out to photo backup from my various phones/accounts. Getting nervous that Google will just close my account one day for no reason. Anyway, don’t fret, the community doesn’t need to be 💯 today, it’ll get there.

I personally believe reddit will live on, that’s just the way its going to be. I dropped off, but my account is still there.

I stopped paying for services because of the ease of not having to jump between different apps on the Roku to watch various movies. Locally hosting my content had simplified everything for the whole family.

Yeah doesn’t work on my Roku lol so back to x265

Because of this post, I reencode a BD rip I made using handbrake to see how small the output file would be. I used the 4k av1 fast profile, but changed the audio tract to passthrough. Holy crap, 44gb down to 1.5gb. what black magic is this?

Is there a guide on how to upload on Usenet ? Maybe I’m just being silly. … Or am I 🤔

Omg, tell me about it. Moved to NJ and everyone is clueless when they leave the state and have to pump… Ok not everyone, but the number is above zero. 👍

And bazarr

Aaaarrrrr! 🌊🛶

What about me? I want to discuss!

Where is chicken breast $11 a pound? That’s like pasture raised organic prices where I am in the US.

Which brand did you pick up? I’m shopping.
