I use rsync with a systemd timer. When I first installed the backup drive it took a while to build the file system, but now every Monday it runs, finds the difference between source and target drive, and pulls just the changes down for backup. It’s pretty quick, doesn’t do any compression or anything like that.





The ideal process would allow creatives across the film, TV, music, and book industries to go to court, where they can request that internet service providers block access to websites with pirated content.

Surely the sites will actually have to host the content this time, right? Not just chasing harmless index files again?


Moustache seems generic for an id, maybe you meant to apply as .moustache? Let’s keep things consistent please

Edit: center also seems unnecessary, in the beta moustaches are already aligned as a child of .facial-hair


Copilot isn’t wrong, they are the best person for the task. 🤷


I know you built the bridge to support 40 ton vehicles, but I think if we just add a beam across the middle here, we should be able to get 200 tons across this no problem? Seems simple, please have it done by Monday!


“Just” is a keyword that I’m going to triple my estimates. “Just” signifies the product owner has no idea what they are requesting, and it always becomes a dance of explaining why they are wrong.


I was admittedly being a bit of a smartass, I don’t actually think jellyfin is doing anything particularly special.

It’s free, it’s open source, it doesn’t try to upsell me or show me ads, it’s fast, it has personalized user accounts, it organizes and presents media beautifully and plays it flawlessly on whatever device I choose to use. For me, idk what more I could ask for from a media server.

EDIT: looking at Emby premier, seems $ provides hardware transcoding, native apps, downloading media for offline, cover arts, database backup, I guess this is stuff I take for granted. Jellyfin just includes it. If jellyfin couldn’t do transcoding or native app playback OOTB I don’t think I’d use it.

Edit2: for context I moved from kodi to jellyfin just a couple years ago, I wasn’t aware of it’s FOSS-fork relationship to Emby before now.


I’ve no experience with Emby but the fact you’re talking about ad workarounds and paywalls and subscriptions leads me to believe you owe yourself to at least try out jellyfin. It has none of that.


I think it depends what you want to achieve? I learned to program to let the computer do the math for me, it’s worked out pretty well so far. I admit I get jealous of the cool visuals, optimizations, and clearer algos people can build with their math experiences, but it certainly hasn’t stopped me from making useable webpages, apps and arduino projects.


“STEAL IT. Steal away. Steal and steal and steal some more and give it to all your friends.” - Trent Reznor, after record labels jacked up NIN album prices. Then later clarified the best quality rips were on Oink (rip 😢)


Fair enough, I suppose there’s still some kicking around the supply lines but kinda sounds like you won the modding lotto lol. If you’re not modding though I’d be a bit upset because the revisions have nearly doubled battery life.



Disagree with “on my radar”, I do give a shit - and I’ll get to it, there’s just 8 other things catching fire that need dealt first…


SQLAlchemy is awesome, one of my favorite libraries I found since diving back into python


Ugh uncomfortably relatable. I always go in with good intentions to solve a tough problem or just clearing a task. Without fail after the first hour it becomes one of those days - every day. Then we can schedule another meeting to explain why the kanban board hasn’t moved in 3 days.
