How do you guys feel about Session?
  • My opinion: it's good. I would use it on a daily basis if someone would ask me to text on it with her. But I'd never ask someone else to use it because there are, in my opinion, better options like matrix and signal which I mandate people to use.

    Why We Stopped Using Signal Messenger
  • Who are the donors? Signal costs a lot of money to operate. Who gave it the funds to operate?

    If you don't know that, maybe you should start researching before writing a blog post. I'm not doing that part for you because you were to lazy/dumb.

  • Google's "Manifest V2" Chrome extension phaseout next month is expected to impact the original uBlock Origin extension, which still uses the V2 framework and has 37 million users
    1. Company buys 1000 clicks
    2. Adnauseam user click on 100 of them
    3. Company only bought 900 real clicks
    4. If 1% of the people who click, buy, then they only get 9 buyers instead of 10
    5. Company observes that 0.9% of people who click, actually buy
    6. A click isn't as valuably as before.
    7. To generate 10 clicks, the company has to buy 1100 clicks in order to get the 10 paying customers in order to finance the ads
    8. More ads lead ro more people using adblocker, the more adblock users, the more adnauseam users. The more adnauseam users, the less valuable the ads.
    9. adnauseam usera click more often and faster on ads. If there is a critical mass of adnauseam users, the ads become even more worthless as real people do not get the chance of clicking on it, skewing the curve even further.
    10. As ads become useless because people don't buy after a click, companies stop paying for ads in that space.
    11. Only companies that can differentiate between real users and adnauseam bots like within proprietary apps like tiktok and instagram can generate money.
    12. Is it really that useful?
  • qwant maps down

    For weeks, I can't reach qwant maps anymore. Is it down for you guys as well? Does anyone know anything? There isn't even a mention on their main pages of it anymore. They just purged everything without further notice. Is that the same experience for you? I'm accessing with a VPN from within france.

    what's a good ip camera for home assistant?

    I don't have yet any preferences. Cheap, easy to set up, secure. What do you use and can recommend?

    is there a jellyfin api which I could query to get the state if someone is actively watching or not?

    The use case is following:

    I'd like to turn off my server at night. Sometimes I stop at 12, sometimes at 1 or 2. If I could ask "is someone watching?" And it returns false, I could postpone the shutdown.

    The current solution is to always turn off at 2 and turn on at 7.

    How do you guys handle the situation?

    to me, it's very sad that firefox tracks search data

    If I want to opt out, I can only opt out by disabling all usage telemetry according to the official doc https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/share-data-mozilla-help-improve-firefox . That means that my usage habits and the usage habit of all people that do not want to share their search terms with firefox, i.e. all somewhat privacy interested people is just thrown into the void. For future browser decisions, this means that the browsing behavior of a whole group is neglected. This makes me sad.

    which OS for transcoding with jellyfin and gpu intel arc a380?

    I can't get it to work. I wonder if it's the operating system. What system do you use it on? I'm on fedora.

    how to set up jellyfin with podman and selinux and an intel gpu (a380) for transcoding?

    I try to follow the docs but somehow it doesn't work as expected. How does your compose file look and what to choose in the settings?

    My current setup: (Not working)

    ```` services:

    original source: https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/installation/container/

    jellyfin: image: docker.io/jellyfin/jellyfin:latest container_name: jellyfin environment: - PUID=1000 - PGID=1000 - TZ=Europe/Berlin - JELLYFIN_PublishedServerUrl=https://my.url volumes: - ./config:/config:Z - ./cache:/cache:Z - ./media:/media:rw ports: - 8096:8096

    no need for https since reverse proxy and no local discovery

    restart: always device: - /dev/dri/:/dev/dri/:Z - /dev/dri/renderD128:/dev/dri/renderD128:Z group-add: - 105 privileged: true ````

    I do not want a privileged container but I'm experimenting.

    • VAAPI is selected
    • VA-API device: is set to /dev/dri/renderD128
    • enable hardware decoding for : H264, HEVC, HEVC 10bit and VP9 10 bit
    • enable hardware encoding
    • allow encoding in HEVC

    to get the group I ran getent group render | cut -d: -f3 on the host which returned 105.

    $ podman exec -it jellyfin /usr/lib/jellyfin-ffmpeg/vainfo Trying display: drm libva info: VA-API version 1.21.0 libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/jellyfin-ffmpeg/lib/dri/iHD_drv_video.so libva info: Found init function __vaDriverInit_1_21 libva info: va_openDriver() returns 0 vainfo: VA-API version: 1.21 (libva 2.21.0) vainfo: Driver version: Intel iHD driver for Intel(R) Gen Graphics - 24.2.1 (0593864) vainfo: Supported profile and entrypoints

    This command returns VA-API does that mean I can only (or I should) select this method? Or is QSV also possible? What's better?

    I can't find them.

    Edit: found it. No idea what the problem was.

    I stumbled upon noice a couple of weeks ago. It is a beautiful app. It just plays noise, e.g. bird sounds. You can set a timer, e.g. 5 minutes and it'll stop after that. That's perfect for meditation or sleeping. I'm just a random user who likes the app.

    dependent containers don't work anymore because of network_mode

    whenever I try to run a podman container, it'll through:

    Error: running container create option: container has joined pod 4f[long_string]b1f and dependency container 34[long_string]9cd is not a member of the pod: invalid argument

    An example of a dependent container compose file looks like this:

    ```` services:

    https://docs.linuxserver.io/images/docker-qbittorrent

    qbittorrent: image: lscr.io/linuxserver/qbittorrent:latest container_name: qbittorrent environment: - WEBUI_PORT=8090 - PUID=0 - PGID=0 volumes: - ./config:/config:Z - ./files:/media:z restart: always depends_on: - gluetun network_mode: "container:gluetun" ````

    ```` services:

    https://github.com/qdm12/gluetun

    gluetun: image: docker.io/qmcgaw/gluetun container_name: gluetun cap_add: - NET_ADMIN devices: - /dev/net/tun:/dev/net/tun ports: - 8001:8000 # gluetun - 8090:8090 # qbittorrent volumes: - ./config:/gluetun:Z environment: - KEYS=REDACTED restart: always privileged: true ````

    It worked until yesterday. I updated to fedora 40. I am not sure if that is just a coincidence or if that's the reason. Should I downgrade to 39?

    What's a good graphics card for jellyfin?

    I assume it's not nvidia. Yet I have no idea how to differentiate between them and neither do I know what a good price is.

    Let's say I don't want to think about what the video type is. I just want a smooth experience.

    Edit: thank you guys!

    the new neostore UI is really great

    It feels completely different, yet very similar. I like it. Feels like the most modern app on my phone now.
