So not an AMD AM5 dual-channel system. 😅

Ubuntu

How much RAM does something like that need?

Right, the flexibility angle makes sense if using a typical root fs like Ext4 with or without LVM. That’s a reason I’ve always kept the OS separate. But with ZFS there’s unlimited flexibility. Separate datasets or volumes within the same storage pool are trivial. I could do root on ZFS on separate SSDs and get those benefits but it’s more complicated that slapping it all in a single pool. Then maybe use the SSDs for cache. :D

Fun fact, Igalia is a worker co-op that does open source development for hire.

Does pre-revolution Cuba qualify as a comparable stage of capitalist development to the US today? Methinks no and I don’t expect things to go the same way in the US as they did in Cuba. I think the US is closer to the state of capitalism Marx thought would start a transition towards socialism than Cuba or tsarist Russia.

Some significant differences from past iterations:

• Many developed industries that don’t have to be built from scratch
• The most powerful military in the world

Just based on those two, if a socialist revolution is to occur in the US, there would be no immediate (or any war) waged on it, so no resources would need to be dedicated on that. There would be no need to scramble to develop almost all industry. Due to the extreme consolidation, taking control over the system would likely be easier - fewer levers control everything.

We’re just riding the bus. Jesus is at the wheel and he’s pressing the gas pedal. We’re just anticipating the destination, not changing how fast we get there. 😄

Hasn’t China surpassed it at this point?

Socialist isn’t entirely the opposite of authoritarian. In some dimensions it is. In others it’s unrelated. The USSR can be both socialist and authoritarian. Many argue it was both.

That’s odd because the clients are just web apps I think. That should work without crashing on a stable OS. I use them on Android mobile and Android TV with extensive subtitle usage and haven’t seen instability.

A funny thing I noticed is that the client distributed in F-Droid is extremely old even though it says it’s updated recently.

I think there’s research to that effect.

I switched from a heavily used Plex server with about 10 users to Jellyfin with the samw usage patterns abour half a year ago. So far it’s been pretty smooth sailing. A better world is possible!

Yes baby.

Hm, I thought Chromecast needs HTTPS and internet-visible endpoint.

Oh? I haven’t upgraded yet. 😄

That’s how it works with Tailscale as well. Tailscale creates Wireguard tunnels underneath between the different devices. There’s also an open-source self-hostable Tailscale control plane.

Pinokio is a 1-click launcher for any open-source project. Think of it as a terminal application with a user-friendly interface that can programmatically interact with scripts.

A web UI that runs scripts. Cool I guess. If you’re into that kind of thing. There’s no way I’d use this instead of docker compose and Ansible/SaltStack. And yes I realize you probably could use compose from a Pinokio script.

I do use both a reverse proxy and Tailscale. All services are proxied. All services except for Jellyfin are accessed only via Tailscale. Jellyfin is publicly available. I’ve obscured it a bit by setting up long, randomly generated DNS name. The proxy would only forward traffic to Jellyfin if the request comes from that exact DNS name. Bots would have to know this name for the proxy to entertain their attempts at all. Then every user has long, randomly-generated password. I prefer to only use it behind Tailscale but some of my family needs direct access. Also Chromecast.

I do. No issues.

Switched to Jellyfin after more than a decade with Plex. Prettey… prettey… pretty good.
