  • Just booting a live usb can't hurt, it could work out of the box. If it doesn't make sure the distro you picked has built-in support (or you can install it on the live) for NTFS (I'm guessing this is the filesystem you're using on your array), easy to test with a simple NTFS formatted pendrive too. If you need help I'd ask the Selfhosted community, there are probably more RAID users there. It helps to know the filesystem, type of hw card, if the card is handling the RAID or not (JBOD mode). Good luck!

  • They should be the ones not even recognizing the state, and yet they want to expel their fellow arabs more than anyone else. All meaningless words, they just want to be the most violent apparently.

  • That sounds good to me, we use wireguard in the family when out and about to access my homeserver, but I'd love if Jellyfin could create ad-hoc tunnels, it'd make us feel safe enough sharing our libraries with friends, perhaps it will convince many Plex users too. What are funkwhale users doing to share their music for example?

    The other commenter wrote about STUN servers (IP), I've seen that Syncthing uses them as well, together with discovery and relay servers. Would wireguard be used at any of this stages or standalone? Personally I have no idea, I'm just an observant user 😅

  • I'm not a security expert but my guts (and the many things I read about this stuff over many years) tell me that cheap highly marketed VPNs like Nord seek the less informed users that sign up because half of their favorite youtubers sent them there, the default M.O. is install the (proprietary) app. It might be possible to use them safely but it's not what's happening to 99% of the customers.

    They operate in grey legal areas, there are many scandals over the years, they write in their TOS that they can change the terms themselves without notice, if you use their service, you agree at any time.

    When I wrote that they do what they want w your network, this is what I'm referring to; idk about the "settings", more like selling access to your residential line (perhaps to other VPN customers)

  • I haven't used Plex in a decade and I use Jellyfin, what you're describing sounds perfect. I read up a bit on STUN servers and it's what Syncthing uses, but they also mantain discovery and relay servers (and anyone can host one and can be added to the public list). Security wise they seem to be doing fine?(I'm not an expert, just an informed user)

    Idk what combo Jellyfin would benefit the most from; are relay servers needed? The workload is similar but probably higher on average, people stream more often than they do backups

  • Haha totally, I should have said processed food, it's the most marketed.

    We could also say ultra processed news now that I think about it: statistical data -> random blog article misinterprets the charts -> tweet w people not reading the sources -> screenshot goes around on facebook -> LLM regurgitates it -> TV news anchor says it with a straight face

  • I understand this but we have to realize that what makes Plex simpler is the fact that they are a network intermediary that does what it wants with your home networks; it's like insisting that NordVPN is better than Mullvad

    IMHO the only solution will be improving wireguard guis and stuff, Jellyfin is not lacking.

  • And spoonfed news, food..

  • Pair the tape

    I can't even, why is this so funny?(◕‿◕')

  • TIL :( I thought it was just a shitty job

  • I like you. I once pretended I'd never seen roman numerals in my life by reading each "letter" on some engraved stone aloud in front of my friends and some strangers, and this woman looked at me horrified :D

  • SEPA Direct Debit is also a wire transfer (bank to bank)

  • Right, so different boards, ssd chips, ram generations, even the displays make a difference since newer panels are more efficient on average. Absolutely inexcusable.

    Btw among the W10 devices they even put an Intel "Y", a cpu with 3.5-7W TDP 😂. I have one of those and it's the worse computer I ever used, recently revived with CachyOS because thankfully it has the x86v3 instructions (=it's not too old)

  • Lol and the one with W11 it's an Intel Ultra, aka the ones made with the modern lithographies at TSMC (like the AMD Ryzens, Apple Ms, etc)

  • Goes to show how much packaging design and marketing matter nowadays 😄
