I think at this point I agree with the other commenter. If you're strapped for storage it's time to leave Synology behind, but it sounds more like it's time to separate your app server from your storage server.

I use proxmox, and it was my primary when I got started with the same thing. I recommend build out storage in proxmox directly, that will be for VM images and container volumes. Then utilize regular backups to your Synology box. That way you have hot storage for drives and running things, cold storage for backups.

Then, inside your vms and containers you can mount things like media and other items from your Synology.

For you, I would recommend proxmox, then on top of that a big VM for running docker containers. In that VM you have all of your mounts from Synology into that VM, like Jellyfin stuff, and you pass those mounts into docker.

If you ever find yourself needing to stretch beyond the one box, then you can think about kubernetes or something, but I think that would be a good jump for now.

And holt reminded him that it's still a narrative that needed to be corrected. What about the one where Terry was profiled? Or holt was denied his promotion?

It's pretty clear that you wouldn't approve of any cop show that tries to work through these issues, so I'm not going to bother arguing with you. I think they did a great job, a lot of those episodes were very hard to watch because they were confronted with choosing a career under one pretended and then saw the reality. To do that with a comedic tone is incredibly hard, and I think they did well.

Oh they may call themselves Christians, but none of them uphold the ideals or beliefs of Christians. They are hypocrites. The same day they do this they take away healthcare from millions, take food out of children's hands, and ramp up more violence to those already hurting.

I don't care what their label is they put on the outside, none of these are Christian. They openly spit on the morals that Jesus laid down.

And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full.

I don't know of any millennial or younger who assumes there will be a safety net for them at the end of the road. We just don't trust those in charge to keep it. I'll fight for it, I paid into it and I want others to have it, but I can't bank on it either

Same as any theory, but it's enough to make Christians freak out

Yeah writer doesn't mention money anywhere there, that's the real trap. All of those sound nice but I have rent to pay.

Did you even see the last 2 seasons? They actually really confronted those issues and outright said that they weren't really the good guys, the show tackled multiple times that the system is completely broken. I get if it was Law and Order being mad, but man you're mad at the only cop show I've ever seen acknowledging and trying to tackle these issues. I mean, that's literally why they made the captain gay and black, and that's just one example.

Uhhh yes let's go with that

Ah didn't know that they stopped there, who would have guessed that...

Okay I've done this before. I was at a scout camp and there was a wooden box with two holes next to each other. We all laughed at it.

Well, wasn't so funny when we got food poisoning that night. I became brothers with another guy from our troop that evening. We've never spoken about it, but we sat there in misery together that fateful night, silence, only broken by the sweet sounds of bad beef exploding, and "pass the tp"

They're out of source material, and I'm guessing it's going to start departing from where a game would go. So, I'm expecting GoT season 8 quality.

I was just forwarded this someone in my household who watches our server. That's it folks. I've been a hold out for a long time, but this is honestly it.

They want me to pay to stream content that I bought from my hardware transcoded also on my hardware.

I'll say it. As of today, I say Plex is dead. Luckily I've been setting up Jellyfin, I guess it's time to make it production ready.

Edit: I have a Plex Pass. More comments saying “Just buy a plex pass” are seriously not getting it. I have a Plex Pass and my users are still getting this.

And for the thousandth person who wants to say the same things to me:

  • YES I know I'm unaffected as a Plex Pass owner.
  • My users were immediately angry at it, which made me angry. Our users don't understand what plex pass is, and they shouldn't have to, that's why I had it. The fact that they were pinged even though it should have kept working is horribly sloppy
  • Plex is still removing functionality. I don't care that "People should pay their fair share". If Plex wants to put every new feature behind a paywall, that's completely okay. They are removing functionality.
    • "But they have cloud costs". Remote streaming is negligible to them. It's a dynamic DNS service. Plex client logs in, asks where server is, plex cloud responds with the IP and port of where server is located. That's it.
    • "Good luck finding another remote streaming" - Again, Plex just opens up an IP and port. Jellyfin also just opens up an IP and port (Hold on jellyfin folks I know, security, that's a separate conversation). All "remote streaming" is is their dynamic dns. Literal pennies to them. Know what actually is costing them money? Hosting all of that ad-supported "free" content that they're probably losing money on.

In short, I don't care how you justify it. Plex is doing something shitty. They're removing functionality that has been free for years. I'm not responding to any more of your comments repeating the same arguments over and over.

Hi folks. So, I know due to a myriad of reasons I should not allow Jellyfin access to the open internet. However, in trying to switch family over from Plex, I'll need something that "just works".

How are people solving this problem? I've thought about a few solutions, like whitelisting ips (which can change of course), or setting up VPN or tail scale (but then that is more work than they will be willing to do on their side). I can even add some level of auth into my reverse proxy, but that would break Jellyfin clients.

Wondering what others have thought about for this problem

 
 

Heads up for those who run a dedicated server who haven't tried experimental first, posting this so it's on your radar.

Long story short, we had to open two additional ports on our server, 8888 and 27777. Following is a direct copy from the changelog:

Dedicated Server - Port Forwarding Updates

If you have Host a dedicated server, you should definitely give the next block a read as many new improvements have been added to allow for extra flexibility since the last update on Experimental

We have updated the Port Allocation Strategy in Reliable Messaging New features:

Explicit Port Configuration

  • A new -ReliablePort= command-line parameter allows explicit port selection.
  • The value must be an integer between 0 and 65535.
  • If specified, the server will attempt to bind to this port and fail to initialize if the port is unavailable.

Default and Configurable Port Ranges The following settings in Engine.ini control port allocation:

[/Script/ReliableMessaging.ReliableMessagingTCPFactory]
PortRangeBegin=8888
PortRangeLength=512
ExternalPortRangeBegin=-1
  • The server will attempt to bind within [PortRangeBegin, PortRangeBegin + PortRangeLength).
  • By default, the server starts at port 8888 and tries up to 512 ports until it finds an available one.

Client Awareness & NAT Handling

  • Clients must connect to the correct port, but port remapping (e.g., via NAT/firewall rules) can break this.
  • To address this, the server now communicates the listening port to clients during the initial handshake.
  • If external port remapping is used, the server must be aware of the external port via:
  • The ExternalPortRangeBegin config setting (for remapped ranges).
  • The -ExternalReliablePort= command-line parameter (for explicitly mapped ports).

Server Host Requirements (TL;DR)

  • If hosting a single server, port 8888 TCP must be open by default.
  • If hosting multiple servers, a range of ports starting from 8888 TCP (by default) must be open.
  • The server will attempt up to 512 ports before failing (configurable).
  • If port remapping (NAT/firewall) is used, the server must be configured accordingly; otherwise, clients won’t be able to connect.
  • Logging is in place to help server maintainers verify the allocated ports.
 

Hi folks, title essentially. I'm using Open Razer and Polychromatic on PopOS right now for my keyboard, but I have a few other peripherals that are also RGB. A corsair cooler, my EVGA card, and my Gigabyte mobo lighting. I was wondering if there's a single pane I can organize them all with. I don't have super high expectations, but maybe there's something out there. Thanks!

 

I am someone who always enjoys having something on in the background, helping me focus.

I love me some Andor, GoT, a lot of newer stuff that is made with really high production quality - but I sit down to watch those.

What shows do you watch that just sit running in the background, ones that aren't going to win any Emmys but you just enjoy?

For me my last two are Home Improvement and Everybody Loves Raymond. Both were fine in their heyday, but now they are noise filler. Not terrible, not great. So what are yours?

 

Maybe an ivory backscratcher?

 

A simple reminder today, if you're trying Experimental (and maybe even if not because why not), to go in and BACKUP YOUR SAVES. Especially if you're new to experimental, this is real beta testing, saves do get corrupted and you cannot go back once your save is upgraded
