Disney+ Now Wants You to Pay to Share Your Account
  • You need to:

    • create the mountpoint
    • mount the drive to the mountpoint
    • Give Jellyfin permissions to access the files there

    Since you are using FAT32 which does not support file level permissions I guess this will show up as 'owned by root'. You will need to do something like this or this

  • Is the Gecko engine the only reason Mozilla still exists?
  • I think you're missing a key area here. The original Mozilla product was Netscape- a commercial combined web browser and email client. There used to be a number of commercial competitors in the space, e.g. Opera, Eudora, etc. Microsoft killed that market in the 1990's.

    I struggle to see how any organisation could make money out of giving away a product that costs money to produce and promote. You've suggested they could have been Proton but that's a completely different sector. We could just as easily have suggested they could have been Twitter, WhatsApp or Instagram.

  • GenXers, would you go back to your youth for a do-over?
  • This is a common thought experiment for lots of people and the break point is usually kids or maybe a partner. If I could still get the same kids (implies same partner) then absolutely. I could be a lot richer, more successful in my career and happier.

    Help a noob with jellyfin on Ubuntu server
  • We're going to need to know as a minimum:

    • Linux distribution and version
    • Jellyfin install method and version
    • what you have already tried- not sure where all those flags are coming from

    I would also support the comments here recommending that you use docker. There's only a small number of Linux distributions and versions where a distribution package installation of jellyfin is fully supported, but even then what you need to do varies across each one. All Linux distributions and versions support docker and the process is essentially the same for all of them.

  • The Insecurity of Debian
  • Ok, aside from Android, I've yet to see any serious usage of SELinux in the real world and I've been working on cloud tech for years. Acknowledged issues such as complexity aside, it's really just that much less relevant in a modern, single purpose environment such as Docker/kubernetes/cloud functions/etc

  • Bluesky continues to soar
  • I feel this and some of the other comments in this thread are missing the point. It's not about me and my followers. It's about the news sources and topics that I search for or follow. They simply haven't moved to Mastodon and where notable individuals that I follow have tried, it simply hasn't worked out due to lack of interest. I'm not interested in the fediverse as a topic in itself, I'm interested in the topics and events I want to follow. Something happens and I can find and read and watch clips about it on Twitter. Not so Mastodon.

  • Bluesky continues to soar
  • I've been on Mastodon for over a year and the content simply isn't there. Several of the people that I follow on Twitter have tried moving or duplicating to Mastodon. They've had a fraction of the visibility and engagement from commenters that they would get on Twitter. Invariably after a few months they have essentially given up on it as a primary medium. For me the discoverability is essentially non-existent, which I don't think is helped by the idea of it being based around instance-local communities, which have no meaning when you're looking at something like Twitter.

  • Help burning CDs?
  • You really should try k3b. Brasero was always kind of a joke by comparison in my experience. For example, k3b easily let's you run diagnostics on your dependencies, so you can check that they are present and correct.

    Options for non-smart TV in UK 2024?

    I am considering replacing my old 50" 1080p TV which I use with (external) Chromecast and Roku. I would like a 4K display 60" or greater but I really, really don't want any smart features. I am aware that I could purchase a commercial display to achieve this and that's my fallback option. Can anyone here make any useful recommendations? I am in the UK so e.g. 'Sceptre' is not available here.

    In advance, with respect, I am technically capable (check my post history) but could I ask to please avoid threads along the lines of:

    • 'non-smart TVs aren't a thing' - fallback is a commercial display
    • 'Nobody wants/buys non-smart TVs' - I do
    • 'Any TV not connected to internet is dumb'/ 'Just don't connect it' - This is no longer true since many TVs require a setup before use involving internet access and/or will seek access via open wifi/bluetooth/HDMI.

    Thanks!

    Edit:

    Some commenters seem to be struggling with the 'why do you care if it connects?'. Some examples why:

    Where to discuss Home entertainment/TV hardware recommendations

    I'd like to ask about home entertainment hardware - I would have thought there would be an existing community or few but I am struggling to find any - can anyone point the way?

    She should have said - well we tried calling first but were on the phone for quite a while- you said our call was important to you and you were 'experiencing an unusually high volume of calls'...

    Lemmy 0.19 compatibility?

    Two instances I have accounts with have switched to Lemmy 0.19. This is a breaking change for many apps, including Connect. Is there any news re supporting this in the near future or is it time to look for another app?

    Edit:

    This is now working for me (at least for 2 separate instances) with Connect version 1.0.153 (details in comments below). Thanks so much for rapid response!
