I'd encourage learning. The more you understand the better you can control your data and maintain your services. You don't need to be an expert but I'd encourage working towards relying less on gpt.

DOWN:

I'm currently fighting with my OliveTin config file. I added a simple new config for a button action and ylthe whole thing just shit the bed. Now OliveTin won't load at all. Even after removing the new config. Stupid yaml.

UP:

After reading the Jellyfin docs and their Hardware Encoder Quality section which states

Apple ≥ Intel ≥ Nvidia >>> AMD*

I decided to spin up a test server on the m1 mini that's been sitting unused in my basement for a couple of months now to see if I can get better performance out of jellyfin on the m1 vs where it's running currently, which is on an i7 Intel that's going on 10ish years old now.

I also spun up baserow and directus containers to see which one I want to use for my database needs.

Audiobookshelf for sure. It handles audiobooks fabulously, and it also does handle ebooks.

I use it to manage my eBook library, but not as the reader. You can set up a "send to ereader" option to email the ebooks to your reader of choice. So I just shoot them off to my pocketbook ereader when I want to read one.

if you’re the sole user, why do you need a cloud-based collaborative environment?

This is a terrible question/implication in the article. Nextcloud is more than just a cloud based collaborative environment.

Nextcloud is an open source replacement for a huge swath of things people rely on, many of which come from Google. To list a few things it can replace:

  • Google Drive(or Dropbox, etc): cross platform cloud storage to access your files from any device
  • Google Photos: auto upload your phone photos to back them up and make them accessible outside of your phone
  • Google Docs (office 365): an office suite accessible in a browser from any device for editing, accessing and sharing your documents
  • Google calendar
  • Contacts
  • Tasks/to dos

Nextcloud can do even more than I've listed here. Hackaday isn't doing anyone any favors by implying the only thing Nextcloud is good for is cloud based collaboration

Look into rockbox. Custom firmware for the iPod.

Easiest way would be to just add a sleep 15 command at the top of the script. Time how long it takes your wifi to come up, and adjust the sleep time with like a 2-3 second buffer in case it takes linger for some reason.

More exact would be to create a systemd service for your script that depends on network connectivity to execute.

Kid Rock is a piece of trash

Another great Body Count song. Honestly, IMO that album is full of bangers.

First marvel thing I've wanted to watch in actual years.

Arch wiki is the documentation gold standard

Definitely. Why not use something off the shelf! That by itself would make it much more approachable
