Have a look at YUNOhost for your OS. It’s based on Debian and is designed to be really easy to set up and use, which might be useful for you as you have young children and not much time.

Ah OK that’s a shame.

I haven’t even looked at port forwarding. I think maybe some ISPs in some countries might block traffic this way but others will know better. Everything just works with Mullvad on Fedora with Qbittorrent, so I’m happy.

Good work!

Where did the Linux socks thing come from? I see it around and am curious about the lore.

Pretty ironic considering they don’t play any sports of their own.

Or cross to fox

I love that meme.

Do what you gotta do buddy

Lol

Check out Cherrytree. I use it for keeping track of literally everything in my life. It’s hierarchical and searchable and you can insert files as well as hyperlink to external files, URLS and other nodes internally. You can export the database in various formats and there is also the option to have it encrypted. You can theme it in the preferences to make it look nicer too (the default is a bit retro-looking). It’s free and open source and AFAIK you can open your database in other applications, so you’re not locked into it.

If you want to sync it across devices just use Syncthing or whatever file sync app you’re selfhosting.

I highly recommend it! Probably the most important application I have on my computer.

I was just borrowing it when I made the rip and was also using a borrowed drive to read it, so I’d rather try and fix the files I currently have. I tried ripping it more than once when I had it, so I just settled for what I got - only getting around to fixing it now!

I copied it using a borrowed external optical drive.

I’m not sure how to tell if I have all the data but the size of the directory contents is around 3.5 gigabytes which seems appropriate for length of video (1h45m).

Will try your suggestion in mpv 👍

That’s good to know.

All of my own drives are encrypted except for a USB stick that I use for transferring files to a windows machine.

Would ‘overwrite with zeroes’ in gnome Disks work?

I installed Jitsi Meet on my YUNOhost server and am very impressed. It works really well and needed basically no setting up after installing.

Would it work to selfhost a Peertube instance?

Who is the Payment Service Provider?

I can’t tell if this is decentralised.

Also gives you an opportunity to buy more beer on the way home so you don’t have to stop drinking.

I’ve had success using Czkawka (hiccup) for deduplicating

Not sure whether it helps but after the last major update on YUNOhost it notified me of a few extra DNS entries I had to make. If I remember correctly it was under Domains, rather than Diagnosis.
