Are you able to independently confirm that the domaincheck container is listening to the right port? Eg netstat -tunlp on the host

I think you’d be hard-pressed to find a LinkedIn alternative. It’s too business-oriented for anyone to care that it’s under corporate control. In some sense, that’s the whole point.

My understanding of Friendica is that it’s supposed to fill a niche similar to Facebook. I’ve never used it though.

Every time my GF Nicole joins a new instance, I make an account on there too. She’s a bit of a fediverse chick.

I understand what you’re saying, but his experiment allowed the embryos to come to term and be born as human babies. Scientists have worked with human embryos before and avoided similar outcry by not allowing them to develop further (scientific outcry, not religious). Calling his work an experiment on human embryos ignores the fact that he always intended for his work to impact the real lives of real humans who would be born.

Are you able to block it from your user settings page? There’s a tab for adding communities/users to your blocklist.

I use it whenever I want to block a community, but I don’t want to visit their page.

There definitely are FOSS projects run by the US government: Ghidra is an open source reverse engineering tool developed by the NSA.

I switched from that container to one that uses qbittorrent and a VPN.

qBittorrent web UI works better on a phone for my use case, and I kept having to manually restart the transmission container whenever the VPN connection dropped.

Looks like bigfoot to me

I always felt like murderous clones are a bit different from evil twins.

From a sci-fi perspective, I’ve noticed that murderous clone stories tend to explore the following themes:

• Whose life is more valid? Does an original have any more right to life than the clone? What aspects of life can never be split between two people with equal claim?
• Would the murder ever matter, in the grand scheme of things? As far as society can tell, the world is exactly the same before you are cloned and after one of you kills the other.
• Could the survivor ever be brought to justice? If the clone tried to kill you because they knew you would try to kill them, does that make it self defence or premeditated murder? Would any punishment would be a net loss for society, when compared before the clone appeared?
• Could this “self destructive” impulse hide deeply inside even the nicest person? How much does a person love themselves? Can self-love even apply when the “self” is also external?

There are definitely UI inconsistencies across devices, especially smart TVs. Jellyfin on Firestick looks different from Jellyfin on Roku which looks different from Jellyfin on WebOS. Some devices deliver Jellyfin through a thin browser client, and in those cases you get access to a unified design. Outside of that it’s a crapshoot as what the app will let you do. Of course, it’s a volunteer project (and all my thanks to any maniac willing to develop TV apps), so I don’t expect that everything can be easily and neatly unified.

I can’t deny that it’s sometimes hard to support my users because of this. Someone complains that they’re getting movies dubbed in an unwanted language: I can’t guarantee that the button to select audio track will look the same on their end when I talk them through it.

They don’t need to quit, but pretending that they’re “changing the system” doesn’t help anyone.

They’re showing up to work, and maybe helping people, but “the system” is defined by rules and goals. Only people with power to make rules and change goals can impact the system. The postmaster who lets a trans person change their passport marker isn’t changing the system. They’re subverting its goals, but the system remains.

In 1936, the people trying to do something about Hitler weren’t the same people signing up for an SS uniform. They were organizing opposition outside of the Nazi party.

I have friends who work in federal government, and I would laugh if any of them told me they were planning to “change things from the inside”. MF your entire department exists at the whim of a fascist president. You can’t change shit in that situation. Best case is you can maybe improve a couple of outcomes that are in your direct line of work. That’s nice and all, but it doesn’t change the system.

For all the WW2 Nazis who developed a conscience and helped people where they could: Good for them. However, it didn’t change anything about the system they took part in. The destruction of German Nazism came from external action.

I have an A380, but I bet an A310 would also do the job fine.

I’ve never actually tested the performance of simultaneous transcodes. However, my server generally sees 2-5 active users on a busy night, and nobody has complained about buffering so far.

Before you run off and get Nvidia, take serious consideration of the Intel ARC line. They’re relatively cheap and have great transcoding performance. They’re supported by Linux out of the box, and I had no problem getting docker passthrough enabled. Unlike Nvidia the drivers don’t have built-in limits for how many simultaneous streams you can transcode.

I recommend The Dirty Dozen. It came out in the 60s, so you’re not getting Tarantino level gore. However, it gets so close to that line anyway.

AMD Ryzen 9 5950X

Does that even have an APU? I don’t think it would have any transcoding hardware without one.

Ah, I see what you mean. Yeah, no way around that without a GPU or a processor with integrated graphics.

You should be able to get a used workstation GPU for $20-40 on eBay. Something from Dell, or a basic nvidia quadro would do the trick. If you could sell the 1660 super for more than that, could be worth the effort.

Alternatively, the 1660 Super would do the trick nicely if you ever needed to transcode video streams, like from running Jellyfin or Plex.

However, I was never able to have the server completely headless.

Depending on what you mean by “completely headless” it may or may not be possible.

Simplest solution: When you’re installing OS and setting up the system, you have a GPU and monitor for local access. Once you’ve configured ssh access, you no longer need the GPU or monitor. You could get by with a cheap “Just display something” graphics card and keep it permanently installed, only plugging in the monitor when something is not working right. This is what I used to do.

Downside: If you ever need to perform an OS reinstall, debug boot issues, or change BIOS settings, you will need to reconnect the monitor.

Medium tech solution: Install a cheap graphics card, and then connect your server with something like PiKVM or BliKVM. They can plug into your GPU and motherboard and provide a web interface to control your server physically. Everything from controlling physical power buttons to emulating a USB storage device is possible. You’ll be able to boot from cold start, install OS, and change BIOS settings without ever needing a physical monitor. This is what I do now.

Downsides: Additional cost to buy the KVM hardware, plus now you have to remember to keep your KVM software updated. Anyone who controls the KVM has equivalent physical access to the server, so keep it secure and off the public internet.

You could require that players wear glasses of a certain kind: Eg transparent plastic frames, or fine wire frames which are too small to conceal any device.
