Based on this I can only imagine they must have full throated support of the green line which would reduce intra-city traffic to allow for greater available capacity for provincial traffic.

At work whenever we need to build little command line tools, my team is always vexxed by my guideline to have the meat+potatoes in a script that reads well-formatted data off stdin , and outputs well formatted-data to stout. They always wanna have some stupid interactive prompts and saving to files baked right in.

This is exactly why. You wanna save to a file?? > file

You want to read from a file? cat |

You want to save to a file but swap commas for colons? Sed.

You get so much FOR FREE w/ the GNU toolkit, even for what you build yourself, by thinking in streams.

GOOD FOLLOW UP!!

I was about to shit a brick that you went from “go to the official trusted source” to “just trust me: curl [x] | sudo bash”

For the record, I fucking hate Plex.

But this is a disingenuous simplification of where the gap is.

Me, my brother-in-law, and friend all share our libraries with the same elderly relatives.

The GAP is that great grandma has to log in/out between servers to find content that may or may not be on an individual server. Plex lets you search/aggregate from all sources without having to jockey credentials and servers.

It’s not a giant ask. I heard a fucking absolutely brain-dead take that “that would require a centralized server which is against Jellyfins core ideology”.

So, I dunno. Maybe it isn’t YOUR use case, but it’s MY use case. Doesn’t make me a shill. I’m still pissed as hell.

But don’t fucking pretend that there is feature parity when there isn’t, and don’t accuse me of being a shill just because Jellyfin literally doesn’t support my use case. I WISH it did. I HATE PLEX.

Why are they proxying the stream through their server though

May or may not be applicable to your case, but often applications need additional configuration to work with a reverse proxy. Usually setting from what IPs it will accept forward headers from (your reverse proxy) and what the original requested host was (externally requested domain, eg: yourservice.yourdomain.com)

If your new setup has resulted in changes to either of those things, the issue might be a now-incorrect config of your apps behind the reverse proxy.

Godot has been making leaps and bounds. Obviously not close to UE, but if it maintains its rate of improvement, I can see it becoming a more and more common choice in the indie space over the next few years

Oh nice, I’ll give that a shot. I was using IOTlink but the service wasn’t reliable on my machine and needed to be restarted constantly…

I’ll give HASS.agent a shot! Thanks

If you get a reliable way to sleep a windows machine via MQTT (not sure if that’s a route you’d take) but I’d be super interested in hearing about it.

I had a similar revelation. Home assistant has a WOL component, so you can set that up for easy starts. I’ve had mixed success with mechanisms to get HA to sleep the computer, though.

Ideally I want the machine to be sleeping I’d I’m not using it.

I’d never looked at them before, but yeah that super flower super modular supply looks pretty sweet. It looks like it has a ton of ports that I assume can be wired up as whatever you need.

For me, the splitters were just generic: they plug to an existing molex out connector and give you 5 SATAs on a ribbon.

https://a.co/d/gXtQ3Qp is what I’d bought, just for reference. The power supply I used them with wasn’t modular (ancient) and so whatever it had was what there was.

Maybe I misread, but if you are planning on having two different PSUs in play for the same system, it’s my understanding that it’s important to make sure the DC outputs share a common ground, which might be a little extra wiring.

Depending on how power hungry the drives are, and if your PSU has enough spare power, you can get cable splitters. I had some spare molex ports which I plugged a cable from Amazon that split it into 5 SATA power connectors.

You don’t want to infinitely split cables though, as tempting as that can be, because there are real electrical limits to doing that. Also just because a power supply is rated at X watts, that’s the total. Hard drives will use the 5V and 12V rails and usually there are individual limits on each rail.

Upgrading the PSU is another option. Probably the cleanest easiest best solution IMO. But even then, you probably can’t find a PSU that’ll give you 12 SATA connectors out of the box so you’ll probably need some splitters in there anyways.

In my case specifically, I’ve actually got a second power supply (because i already had it and it was otherwise just gathering dust) powering the extra drives. It’s a bit more complicated to get set up but, it’s an option as well.

Edit: also if you’re asking yourself where can you physically PUT the drives, I 3D printed these and slapped some fans on them:

No, so they can restaff w/ H1B

My grandmother died in a Siberian labour camp for being an academic.

I don’t think it’s a cheap pivot at all. If you want to say “look at all these places where the people there wanted freedom!” While completely ignoring that they were violently surpressing those same scenarios within their own annexed territories? That’s just willful blindness.

Did they support liberation movements in Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Poland etc etc?

As others have said, running out of motherboard SATA slots doesn’t mean you need a new machine to support expansion.

You can get m2 adapter slots for more SATA drives.

If you think you’ll be building a NAS in the future, and are cheap like I am, you might consider getting a pci-e expansion card for SAS rather than SATA drives. They’re backwards compatibile with SATA drives, but open you up to being able to use SAS drives which are common in enterprise data centers. You can get used lots of those drives on eBay WAY cheaper per TB when the data centers hour them out.

I’ve got a machine with 16 SAS drives running the unRaid OS, and I’m very happy with it for data hoarding and media serving. The drives (with shipping) cost $5/TB.

This is the most concise rebuttal and I think you’ve highlighted well where the root of the perceived discord lies.

If one accepts that the CPC represents the working class, then the critique of the unfair comparison via the meme would be viewed as legitimate.

If one contests the original assertion, then it does not. To them, Xi memeing a CEO would look to them more like Musk offing Altman.

Maybe I’m misunderstanding what you’re saying, then… But I agree that we’re just bouncing off supporting arguments rather than directly defending or refuting a central thesis.

My understanding of your point was that western critisms of China are either at best misinformed, but in general the result of trying to preserve the idea that “the west is in front, so everyone else must be behind”.

I fundamentally reject this specific formulation because the result of that formulation is that there exists no valid criticism of China.

So, let’s just settle this: what would you say is the most uncomfortablely valid criticism of China?

Western leftists literally never shut up about the Nordic countries so I must flatly reject the premise that the justification is the preservation some vestigial notion of Manifest Destiny
