Oh that's awesome.

I use the new PE version since it's still maintained and has had something to fix any of my problems so far.

Hiren's boot CD

It's a small ISO with tons of utilities on it. It's great for recovering data if shit goes really south. I always have one handy.

Edit: toss it onto your ventoy stick

Same - I'm very curious as to what it is and how it's used.

I hate the jargon used in some of these app descriptions.

example: "Enhance workflow with integrated collaboration and intelligent software agents to automate your processes."

WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU DO

I wish opinions in titles would just fuck off. "This is a thing and it's awesome"

CPU and RAM are consistently >90%. It's mostly qbittorrent doing that by caching files I'm seeding.

Game servers are mostly stable but Plex struggles if it's transcoding (necessary due to video file types and who I'm streaming to).

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.

 

I'm looking to upgrade my Plex and game server. I currently have an i5-4690K with 16 GB DDR3 and it's struggling a lot. My PSU is a 850W gold rated EVGA from 2017 so I don't think it needs upgraded quite yet since I've been way under the wattage for most of its life.

I was looking at something like a 13400 but I'm not sure if it's the best choice or what to pair it with.

 

I have been trying to wrap my head around Nginx proxy manager by reading guides. I tried using the linuxserver docker-compose to set it up and I couldn't figure it out. Finally I checked out the office Nginx image...

I don't know why I didn't try that one first. The linuxserver images are usually easier to set up, but not this one.

All of this was for Overseerr/Plex. Here was the progression:
"Tell me what you want and I'll get it."

"Whenever you're on my WiFi, go to INTERNAL.IP:5055 and you can request whatever."

"Go to PUBLIC.IP:5055 and you can request stuff."

"Go to lastname.duckdns.org and you can request stuff."

And now... I'm still on DuckDNS but it's managed by Nginx and it's through HTTPS!

What should I do next?

The problem isn't so much that there are ads. The problem is also what kind of ads they're playing. YouTube has been known to play inappropriate ads without vetting them - think of those awful mobile game ads with a heavy sexual tone.

This stuff also seems to explicitly target videos that kids might watch.
