If you put it on very low the cat will think it has a warmed bed

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.

Stop calling me out

Oooh those are stomping boots. I thought they looked like inline skates and was wondering about using those with an axe

To be fair, I would also be upset if someone consolidated their toolbox with mine. I am single though so that would make that a whole lot weirder

That’s why I put my phone on my desk over night instead of next to my bed. When the alarm goes, I have to get up to turn it off and at that point I might as well get dressed. Oooor hit snooze and literally fall back into my bed

I guess that might work. I’ll have to try it on monday though it’s probably more effort this way compared to just doing it manually since the snippets I have to add currently are mostly single functions with less than 20 lines

Unfortunately not because the word document is meant to be the “master” document. We aren’t even supposed to export PDF versions because in the future people may see the PDF in the folder and use that as a reference instead of the main word document even though the word doc was updated and the PDF wasn’t. Also I tried pandoc md conversion to docx in the past for another document and it didn’t go very well. The formatting of the headers was all over the place which made it impossible to generate the Table of Contents in word

I’m not very well informed on the specifics of the DLNA standard or how it is differentiated from UPnP so take what I say here with a grain of salt. My understanding is that there are 3 device types in DLNA

• A server which provides media
• A client which can pull media from the server
• A renderer which can play back media from the client

I’m not sure if the server is necessary stricly speaking or if my device is using the underlying UPnP stuff but I can use Macast, which is a DLNA renderer, on my desktop computer and then select it as a playback device in Symfonium on my android phone where it shows up as a UPnP device.

That might work. I’ll have to check it out. Thanks

I’ve used macast in the past on my desktop where it worked perfectly. Unfortunately I could not find a fitting docker image for it. There is this one but it has literally no information and only 70 image pulls. Then there is a dockerfile in the Macast github repo but considering I don’t see a docker image mentioned anywhere in the documentation so I guess that one is only for building the application. I believe Macast is a GUI application anyway so I’m not sure how good it would work on a headless server.

I was under the impression that minidlna is exclusively a DLNA server and not a renderer. Is that wrong?

The code snippets are the worst part. God forbid I ever have to update them because I have to manually indent every line in them correctly

Oh yes definitely. I currently have to write the technical documentation for a project I am working on in MS Word because that’s the format my supervisor wants (since everyone in the organisation already has word installed by default and knows how to use it at least somewhat). Probably a quarter of the time I spend writing is lost to fighting the formatting in word. I managed to have stuff happen that my coworkers have never seen word do before like taking the content of all my textfields (which I use for pasting code snippets) and having it duplicated inside each textfield…

I wished I could use LaTeX for it but I understand the argument that some people after me may have to work on the project who don’t know LaTeX.

I’m gonna upvote the git + plain markdown solution simply because it is a very basic solution that does not depend on a lot of specific software in case you want to switch in the future. I had a look at obsidian in the past but discarded that idea because it required a license for commercial use back then which it seems they either changed or I misread the terms at the time.

Still I am a fan of going as low-tech as possible with note formats so that I can easily hand down my notes to whoever comes after me and they won’t need a special program to open anything.

Quarto looks nice and would be something I would look into if I did more data heavy work. As it is I only write technical notes and documentation for software for which plain markdown is perfectly suitable.

I don’t think so. From my understanding that setting should only change how thick each individual line is though so in total the printer will make more lines

Maybe adjust the line thickness/width or whatever its called?

I’m not sure that’s possible on most routers but I’m very much not an expert in networking

I don’t think that’s how it works with my router. I read a bit about DNS failover and the consensus seemed to be that all DNS servers listed should return equal results since requests are spread round-robin between them (at least for mikrotik routers).
