My life is on a bunch of HDDs dug out of failed laptops with SMART errors some of which have already failed in the past, they are duct taped together and shoved inside a drive cage they don’t fit in.

OpenVPN

Pretty fun (and funny) sci-fi story, the open source katana bit gave me unix surrealism vibes but then again what doesn’t these days.

Thanks!

What is an “Immich external library”? I’m a user of Immich but not sure what that means.

WebUI is streaming though on desktops though and I assume they’re also using iOS/Android/TV which all have clients, so I’m trying to get at the difference there.

Forget the Auth, use VPN profiles as access controls. Give them to trusted folks and you’re gold.

Yeah don’t use a cloudflare tunnel for that, it’ll get you banned.

Huh? I used jellyfin just fine in the hospital on public WiFi on my ancient busted iPad air [some number].

The only thing I did was install pivpn and upload my VPN profile file to Google drive so I can remote into my network. I legit never even had to set anything up it just worked, didn’t even need to know the IP of the server because my locally run DNS server (and failing that, the basic hostname based DNSMasq in the router) took care of everything.

I don’t even have any reverse proxy or firewall because I still pretend to value my sanity and my time, nor did I expose it to the internet either, thanks to almighty NAT.

Didn’t have to do any caching or anything crazy like that, no idea what you’re talking about, but I think there’s an option to download the files right through jellyfin.

I watched star trek TAS while having fun with opioids and it was a great time.

Why would you ever bother to use either option when you can just access it via the WebUI on Firefox?

We just defederate.

Yeah? Which ones am I not? Lol I’m not a shitposter wtf?

I’m only banned from communities to do with queerness, socialism, Europe, news, ADHD and politics. I’m a trans woman from Europe who has ADHD, is a socialist (Anarchist) with an interest in news and politics.

My hobbies also include hacking, planes (simming primarily the A320 and general aviation interest), milsims, trains, AI, philosophy, social sciences, history, paleontology (especially the Cambrian and Devonian), music production (DAWs, plugins, synths, etc.), video making (esp. editing), programming, space (orbital mechanics/astrodynamics and astronomy), Unix/Linux/BSD, SelfHosted/homelab stuff, gaming (inc. the culture), macroeconomics, electronics (as in, breadboard prototyping, IoT with pi/arduino, embedded hacking and physics of electricity), flashlights, manga, TV shows (just finished Generation Kill), Star Trek, drugs (psychs mostly), retro computing (C64 and Amiga) and many more I can’t recall rn and I seek out and subscribe to communities on Lemmy for all of them, plus those with differing opinions politically e.g. neoliberal/neocon, socdem, tankies etc.

Is that really so odd? It’s pretty normal to me. I used Reddit in the same way.

I just don’t have insane hivemind opinions, but relatively reasonable ones and voicing any of that (Ukraine right to self-defense, gender dysphoria is a medical disorder treated by transition - not a choice, AI can be useful etc etc.) seems to be a big no-no on some parts of Lemmy.

Anyway this is all extremely off-topic at this point so I’ll probs delete this thread later but I’m genuinely curious why you’d think I’m a shitposter.
