Is there a good way to set it up with a remote?

It’s how I have been running it for the last two years now. Coupled with Jellyfin, it is such a better experience. My mother just got a new TV - I think I will set up something similar for her.

That is also my experience. People are certainly opinionated which could be interpreted as hostility in some cases, but most people are willing to share and help when someone less knowledgable have gotten stuck with something.

You could look up 3Blue1Brown’s explainers on YouTube, they are pretty good and shows a lot of visual examples. He has a lot of other videos on other areas of math.

You can export your data from Spotify, and use that as a basis for downloading songs via for example yt-dlp (this can be automated), or slowly build it up again over time in whatever system you set up by buying the albums/compilations containing the songs.

I find the non-fiction stuff he writes good (e.g. The Internet Con, Chokepoint Capitalism). I believe this book is like that?

I found his fiction, based on the one book (The Lost Cause) I read, to be a bit juvenile in style (as in feels like a young adults kind of book) to the point I didn’t quite enjoy it, although the topics are interesting enough.

you need certificates on iOS which suck

I can still sideload whatever I want

What does Jellyfin have to do with that? If you implement acess control in the reverse proxy, requests from non-whitelisted IPs are just not forwarded to Jellyfin.

I have mine behind a revwrse proxy (Nginx Proxy Manager), and use a whitelist to allow specific IPs or IP ranges access so my family can use it.

30-40 billion USD in total worldwide over three years seems very little compared to the massive expenditures by the AI companies to build the things?

I use Nginx Proxy Manager and whitelist my remote users. They all have static IPs though, so its a workable solution for me.

Before I used a whitelist I would go through the access logs, and could never find any attempts to exploit the endpoints - only some random bots trying to find some admin page assuming it was another service. Not saying you shouldn’t take it seriously, but you are likely not subject to these attacks the moment you expose it.

That said, there is a discussion about these endpoints on their repo. At some point they will be fixed (my impression is that they are hampered by legacy Emby code). When they do, you could do this more securely.

I still struggle to get Heroic to install pretty much anything, while Lutris usually works. I would want to use Heroic, but a prerequisite is that installed games actually launch and I have yet to understand why they don’t…

If you installed Steam from the software manager in Mint, you might have downloaded the Flatpak. Flatpaks are a particular way of distributing software which have their own pros and cons vs other ways of installing software, and you will eventually see many people hold strong feelings about this topic (whether or not to use them for instance).

But for now, in order to quickly check whether Steam is installed this way, you can install Flatseal through the software manager. Flatseal provides a GUI for efficient permissions management of Flatpaks. When you open it, it will display all software on your system that is installed in this manner. If Steam is listed there, then you have installed it has a Flatpak. You can then edit the permissions and try to set GPU Acceleration to allowed and see if that helps. If not, you have a different issue.

And for the record, using Flatseal is not a requirement for managing permissions of Flatpaks. You can do that through the command line as well. But it is indeed a quality of life improvement for me at least.

Are you running games via Flatpaks and have not given the Flatpak permission to use GPU acceleration? That has severly slowed down games on my similar AMD-based Minisforum PC. If you are, you can use Flatseal to easily adjust settings.

I’d think enrollment rates would be a severe lagging indicator of education quality. Institutions could likely coast on reputation for quite some time after education quality tanks. Inertia is powerful, and some could even knowingly decide to go to poor educational institutions just for the status it still gives among peers and in their community.

That said, I have no first hand experience with US higher education, and wouldn’t know what the quality really is, just saying that enrollment rates probably aren’t a great indicator of it.

Oh, the name Longhorn unlocked some memories just now…

I bought a kettle with some WiFi features, but never planned to put it on my network as it works without it. Or was supposed to, at least. The thermostat was erratic and it needed a firmware update to fix it, only installable via this WiFi-connection. I set up a temporary VLAN just for the update, and disabled the VLAN right after. Then I took a shower.

I find it odd that one of its core features worked so poorly out of the box. And it’s not like it was a way to trick me into connecting it either, as I first got a replacement part because they didn’t know what the issue was.

And it has an Android fork (FreeTube Android), and can have playlists, subscriptions etc. synced across devices with Syncthing. It does sometimes result in sync conflicts though, but if you reload it before using it on a device, you will be fine. Most sync conflicts I get are for history, and that’s fine by me to lose some history.

WE WOULDNT BE BLOCKING ADS IF YOU REGULATED ADVERTISERS LIKE YOU ARE TRYING TO REGULATE VIEWERS.

I still would.
