That’s good to know. I leave location services off on Android when I’m not using them and the possibility of a triangulation leak always nagged me a little. Not a lot, because I’ve never heard of any actual harm coming from it. But a little.

Well that’s a shame. I’m sort of half-assedly using syncthing to backup my photos from my phone to my server, but mostly I rely on immich. I never really got the hang of using syncthing with my phone.

Lol, I still check out slashdot too - although it’s usually a day late with news and the comments aren’t anything special. Force of habit I guess.

Wow, that takes me back. I used to prefer Anandtech to Ars Technica, Hot Hardware, Tom’s Hardware, etc.
But I haven’t visited any of them in like a decade, so I can see why they might be shutting down.

Masochism, paranoia.

Another vote for Debian, and I’ll suggest you go ahead and install Jellyfin directly rather than messing with Docker.

I’d been running JF under Docker on my NAS, but when I moved to a new server I decided to just install it directly and it hasn’t been any problem at all. You’ll get a notification when it needs to be updated and it’s just a few clicks to do so. You won’t have to fight with Docker to get hardware acceleration working - which isn’t to say it won’t be a PITA, but it’s one less layer of complication.

Looks cool. My RPi 1 is still rolling along running Pi Hole, but if I need to replace it, something like this running off PoE would be very tidy.

The 1% of China? I mean, I’m sure they have an elite, but the 1% thing is usually pointed out as a sore spot for capitalism.

A $3 Million Crypto Wallet… A $2 Million Crypto Wallet… A $5.5 Million Crypto Wallet…
(This joke probably doesn’t work anymore, but I still think it’s funny.)

I’m not using disk encryption. It’s a desktop and if it’s every stolen I’ve got bigger problems.
Also, I presume that disk encryption makes it so you can’t just pop the drive in an adapter and pull stuff off it, which I sometimes need to do with old, retired drives.

Rats. Leaving TPM off in the BIOS is how I’ve been avoiding it nagging me to upgrade from 10.

Interesting. As much as I’m a Foobar2000 fan, it’s not open source. Looks like I’ll be giving Winamp another spin soon.

So you’re suggesting that all scammers are skilled.

It’s a real dilemma.

Quick! Someone tell us why this isn’t a good thing because the government did it! Surely there’s some secret corruption at work!

Right… I use multiple browser windows as tab groups. Tried tree tabs, but since I keep one window per topic I rarely get enough tabs open to need them.

Everything is feeling great so far. The only bug I’m encountering is that when opening a thread (in Firefox on desktop) it auto-scrolls down past the content to the replies.

The sort options stay the same. And I just realized that by ‘post’ I’m thinking mostly about comments. I used the wrong word and it’s confusing people, although I suppose the same idea holds for top-level posts.

But I guess it is a lot of work now for the moderators to keep up with the high amount of new posts.

Exactly. Tildes doesn’t have user voting at all, and I think it will fail to scale for precisely this reason.

You can set the threshold to -1000 if you want to see everything. I’m not sure what a good default would be.
