Goddamnit, I just watched a video yesterday where this topic was mentioned and now I see it everywhere

Fun fact in case you didn't know, the green belt you are referring to is the leftover area of what was once the city wall. You can still kinda see it in the star like shape of the green belt and there are a few old fortifications left for sightseeing.

I'm afraid that philosophy doesn't quite work when you are part of a friend group that's playing together and you are the only one who even considers using Linux. I actually do play a lot of games on my dual boot Linux install but since we are currently playing a lot of battlefield I usually start Windows instead

Unfortunately I tend to like games that are still among the damn 10%, like battlefield 6.

Out of curiosity, do yoy know how Jellyfin handles network failures with mounted network drives?

I had a navidrome server where once my network machine failed to start properly, the entire database was deleted because it looked to the server like I deleted all of my files. I luckily had my favorites cached on my phone client and was able to restore most of my playlists from there but it was still an incredibly annoying thing to go through. I have since turned off automatic scanning of files for that service since that seemed like the only way to prevent this happening again

I have a pretty similar setup currently running but I bought a public domain that I use for my certificates.

I used to have a pi-hole as my DNS server where I entered all subdomains and pointed them at the right address, namely my reverse-proxy.

My reverse-proxy, Nginx Proxy Manager, got the certificates from my domain registrar and forwarded the requests to the correct services based on subdomain.

I mostly dislike using AI to code. The one exception I recently got into was when I was fighting with a python script and didn't understand why it was behaving the way it did. I used AI for possible causes and pretty quickly managed to fix it. Sometimes it's just nice to have some possible causes for a bug listed so you can check them out

If I host my own smart home with zigbee devices, does that still count as consumer IoT tech? The zigbee devices themselves are the typical philips hue, ikea tradfi, etc. devices

Meanwhile I just tried to set up a VPN connection for my laptop and can't get wireguard to work properly

Definitely agree about the comfort of reading on it. Bigger screen, bigger text and a lot easier on the eyes for extended reading. Also no screen glare when reading out in the sun.

Honestly I found plex a lot simpler to set up when I started out.

In Jellyfin I had to wrangle the settings a lot when trying to set up hardware encoding since my streams kept crashing due to some codecs not being dupported by my CPU.

Depending on the specific model it is either an SSD or eMMC storage but you won't be able to get to it without major disassembly of the device which includes removing the glued-on screen.

This surface is an absolute bitch to repair

 

Hello everyone, I am currently looking for a software solution to use my home server as a DLNA renderer which can output audio to my stereo amplifier.

The only solution I found was called gmrender-resurrect which seems like it would do exactly what I want but I was unable to get a docker container of it working. While I was able to find and connect to the DLNA Renderer, playback would fail every time and I was unable to get any information from the logs regarding why.

Do any of you know another solution to stream audio from my phone to my server (I am using Symfonium on the phone side)? Ideally it would be something I can deploy as a docker container on my server.

Thanks.

 

Hello everyone, I am currently trying to set up a kmonad config file to replace the autohotkey script I used on windows. My goal is simply to use the right alt key in combination with a,o,u and so on to type german umlaut characters like ä,ö,ü, etc.

So far I am having trouble even getting kmonad to run the config. I guess I probably misunderstand how this is supposed to work significantly. My initial config file was generated by ChatGPT since I had no idea where to even start.

This is my current config file

(defcfg
  input  (device-file "/dev/input/by-path/platform-i8042-serio-0-event-kbd")
  output (uinput-sink "kmonad_keyboard")
  fallthrough true
  allow-cmd true
)

(defsrc
  ralt a o u s lsft
)

(deflayer german
  ralt-a "ä"
  ralt-o "ö"
  ralt-u "ü"
  ralt-s "ß"
  ralt-shift-a "Ä"
  ralt-shift-o "Ö"
  ralt-shift-u "Ü"
)

Any help would be appreciated.

Hello everyone, I recently built a small distribution board to distribute 5V to multiple components for use in a robotics project. I made each output switchable with an individual switch and an LED to indicate the current state. When I went to test it using a lab power supply I noticed that the LEDs would start flickering weirdly when I turned them off and on again.

As it turns out, the LEDs, which I found in my dads old parts in a bag labeled TLBO 5410, are apparently blinking LEDs. I found a datasheet for TLBR5410 LEDs which seem pretty much identical to what I have accidentally used.

Apparently these LEDs are made to operate directly from a 5V supply without an additional current limiting resistor (it is already built in) and are made to continuously blink at a frequency of 3Hz.

Because I thought I was using standard LEDs I added a series resistor causing them to behave weirdly due to low voltage. For comparison, this is how they are supposed to act: https://imgur.com/a/fXlcEDs

 

Hello everyone, I have another question regarding reverse-proxying again, specifically for the linuxserver.io jellyfin image.

On the dockerhub page for this image there are 4 ports listed which should be exposed:

  • 8096 for the HTTP Web UI
  • 8920 for the HTTPS Web UI
  • 7359/udp for autodiscovery of jellyfin from clients
  • 1900/udp for service discovery from DLNA and clients

Additionally there is also an environment variable JELLYFIN_PublishedServerUrl which is for "Setting the autodiscovery response domain or IP address". I currently have that set to my subdomain https://jellyfin.mydomain.com though I am not sure if that is correct.

I already have a reverse-proxy set up allowing me to access my servers webinterface under https://jellyfin.mydomain.com without exposing the https port on the container. What I am unsure about now however, is what to do with the two ports for UDP traffic.

By my understanding, a reverse-proxy will only forward traffic which comes to the ports 80 for http and 443 for https. Those are also the only ports my reverse-proxy container has exposed alongside the management interface. As such the 2 udp ports will not be reachable under my jellyfin domain.

How can I change this or is this even an issue?

Hello, I have a question regarding the usage of a reverse-proxy which is part of a docker network.

I currently use Nginx Proxy Manager as a reverse-proxy for all my services hosted in docker. This works great since I can simply forward using each containers name. I have some services however (e.g. homeassistant) which are hosted separately in a VM or using docker on another device.

Is it possible to use the same reverse-proxy for those services as well? I haven't found a way to forward to hosts outside of the proxies docker network (except for using the host network setting which I would like to avoid)
