Okay, hopefully you didn’t read any spoilers in my post lol 💀 let me know what you think! Id be willing to bet it’s going to come to streaming soon (like maybe early May) because it seems pretty niche, and a limited theater release.

I’ll crosspost there, thank you for the suggestion:)

Exactly this, but to be clear he used his personal email account on one forum where he made a post promoting it in the early days. Everything else was solid and, if they hadn’t found the post, I don’t think they would have been able to link him.

A chain is only as strong as it’s weakest link and if the admin logs are descriptive enough, then it would only take one mistake to take down the metaphorical tower of cards.

Unfortunately no, but if you don’t care about it being metal then yes they make a red one!

I don’t have a problem with the tip being wobbly, but it’s definitely a concern. I think its just a problem that you would get with any retractable tip pencil.

IMO, even if it did wobble, it’s worth the inconvenience. I used to have a mechanical pencil with a non-retractable tip & one drop ruined it.

Love to see it! Your eraser game needs some leveling though 😋, may I introduce you to this bad boy:

This.

Ehhh i don’t think that justifies having people pay to stream, i doubt a lot of people even ever used that functionality and yeah they could have just pay walled it if it was that much of a problem.

Final thought: there’s also a fair chance (I’d rate it at almost 70%) that they presented this to us because they knew it would piss people off. Then, in a week or so, they will post a “we’re sorry, is this better?” with the changes they’re ACTUALLY going to make. A ploy to make us blindly agree to whatever they want because “at least it’s better than what they wanted originally” 🙄🙄

The audacity of this company to increase prices when:

A) downloads are locked behind the paywall but havent worked in years (probably close to a decade at this point)

B) they focus all the development time on bringing bullshit to the platform (live tv, rentals, other streaming app searches, etc)

Requiring a subscription for remote access is actually fucking insane, they don’t have any bandwidth costs associated with that other than authentication so ???

This will drive people to Jellyfin, and watch how fast Plex drops into irrelevance when all the selfhosters move away. Plex is (now was) the #1 thing to that both myself and others in this community would recommend to someone looking to get into selfhosting. ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯ not anymore, wonder how much the revenue will drop?

$1k for the base isn’t horrible IMO, especially if you compare it to something like the mac mini starting at $600 and ballooning over $1k to increase to 32GB of “unified memory” and 1tb of storage.

I get why people are mad about the non-upgradable memory but tbh I think this is the direction the industry is going to go as a whole. They can’t get the memory to be stable and performant while also being removable. It’s a downside of this specific processor and if people want that they should just build a PC

Nice! So you were able to get everything working?

Hey, can you elaborate a little bit more? Based on my Google search, casa-os is a front end for selfhosting? So, I would assume that you are not connecting to the right ports.

So, my assumption is: casa-os is using your port 80 and 443, so when you set up the DNS A Record, and navigate to it in your browser, it takes you to the homepage for casa-os. If this is indeed the case, then you have a couple options. You could:

1. Change the ports that casa-os is using and then rebind NGINX to 80 and 443
2. set up a second device just for NGINX (which is what I do, I use a Raspberry Pi just for network entry for stability reasons)
3. (I’ve never done this, so YMMV) you might be able to use Tailscale Serve
   • You would have it serve the port for NGINX under your Tailscale DNS name
   • Once you’re there, I imagine that you could use a CNAME DNS record or something on your custom domain in order to continue using the domains that you want, sub domains, SSL, etc.

Let me know what ends up working for you. I hope that either option 1 or 3 work, if those fail then you can definitely get it working via option 2 :)

Makes sense, yeah it definitely takes more system resources vs storage for a personal server. I host for myself and some friends, so it’s really just thumbnails that take up space.

For reference, I’m hosting on an r220 w/ a proxmox VM allocated as above. I think you could probably get away with less, but not too sure. Your idea with the mini PC would probably work, or you could get a cheap dell Optiplex on eBay and see if it runs well

FWIW, it doesn’t need much. I’ve been running since June 2023 on a VM with 12 gigs of ram, like three cores, and a 1tb ssd (previously I was hosting the DB on my unraid server, but the performance was absolutely horrendous). When i started it i had less RAM, i think as time as gone on its started requiring a bit more (maybe now because of the db migration)

Its really funny because lemmy is one of the most rewarding things to selfhost

Just perspective, look at the curtain rod, it also slants downward

It would probably be mail.x[.]com

Can you provide an example? I’m a little confused by what you mean.

Here, I cleaned it up

Once the port is open, you should be able to access it via the tailscale IP just as you would locally on your network
