If you check it and run it through a course and a decent one year guarantee, you should be fine. If it doesn’t fail then it won’t fail for quite some time.
Just make sure to put it in some RAID or parity
I just swapped my >10 year old WD Reds with refurbished used drives at 1/3 of the price, just because i need more space, these things last if you take some care.
“Google parent firm Alphabet employed 182,381 employees as of September 30th, 2023, so roughly a thousand job cuts would only be around half a percent of the company’s total.”
This is just a normal optimization, and holy fuck are they huge.
During the pandemic everyone was over-hiring, it doesn’t exactly tell you what you’ve wrote, but you are right as a whole.
Rockstar patented NPC showing natural behavior, eg. when feeling cold or hot
No wonder that advancements of immersion in games are moving so slow compared to graphics when these dipshit companies patent every tiny thing.
That’s not innovation
True, only shitty thing i did was buying lifetime and using it for only two years until i finally dumped it, it corrupted the database 3 times and it isn’t able to be repaired with any tool i’ve found.
Recreating and rescanning for intro-outro detection literally took a day each time, fuck this.
There are so many databases hosted on that machine that i can eliminate hardware fault at that point.
Running Jellyfin has been a really flawless for over a year and intro-outro dectection + auto-skip is also available there, i’m only missing the advertisements of Plex, not in a good way though
I would also not recommend running essentially a cracked server OS handling maybe your most important files.
If you insist to use some Synology application there is this solution:
If you want to, you can save some disk utilization with Autoscan: https://github.com/cloudbox/autoscan
It essentially gets poked by any *arrs that there is a new folder/file in a certain directory and contacts Jellyfin, which picks that up immediately, you can disable Autoscan in Jellyfin then and your content is quicker to access.
It supports multiple sources and targets, and you can even translate paths, in case it differs between source and target.
Nginx Proxy Manager does also manage certificates, it makes it even easier to create separate certificates for different subdomains, which is nice for my sanity.
I don’t like that anybody checking out one certificate of any service and get all the subdomains I’m running too, and wildcard certificates are bad practice.
I was running the LS.io Letsencrypt container as it was named before, and SWAG for years, without any problems, it does its job, but then i’ve tried NPM and it made my life easier, i love the ability to change access rules or proxy settings with some simple clicks too, without having to edit countless config files for simple changes everywhere, that’s what ultimately made me stay there.
Anyone buying a full price title without looking it up with a quick Google search or reading reviews on Steam is far gone from my compassion.
You can even refund it so easy it’s not even worth the outcry and i don’t even pretend to care about anyone pre-ordering digital downloads.
It’s shitty that these devs have to put the games out too early, but it would save everybody’s money and nerves if you just start to see releases today as early access because that’s what they all are. There are many companies out there which don’t say a peep and i won’t wreck anyone who at least tries to give a heads-up !pre-release! which anyone who cares could get easily for free.

These guys are the exception.
Holy, thank you, will try it soon
