Everything I get usually has it’s metadata updated / overwritten by Musicbrainz anyway

But, yeah, it’s slow going if you’re in a niche…

I’ve created / updated a few albums in there and it takes a few minutes to get it all done, but there’s some satisfaction in giving back

🤔 Maybe I’ll try that next time… I kinda feel loyal to Grub, it’s been my friend for sooo looong.

Might help to draw it out on paper

But, when you’re done, you’ll be the Encrypted Dual-Boot God !

Why not… or try another brick in the wall

They’re my preferred platform for buying music.

I purchase from Bandcamp, should I be looking to move over?

Ah, yeah, you’ve just reminded me, I must move my stuff off proxmox when I get a chance.

I tried that proxmox backup thing when I first set it up, good god what a complex mess… backup & recovery needs to be as simple and as smooth as possible.

Pretty much everytime I try to do fancy stuff with the bootloader I get pretty close to nuking systems. Worst was my 1st UEFI system where I was trying to get rEFInd to show multiple OS to boot from… eventually gave up and went back to the warm embrace of GRUB

Ah, have you found the land of IoT? Bricks everywhere, you’d love it.

Ah yes, reminds me of messing with my 1st pfSense firewall… I learned how good their recovery process was that evening

Nah, if you’re installing something user friendly (ie Linux Mint just for an example) it’ll work 1st time, guaranteed - or your money back.

But… you’ll only really learn once you’ve fubar’d something… just like falling off riding a bike

Yep, it’s something that more people need to consider to keep their free (as in the source code is not a prisoner) software going

It looks like jellyfin costs ~$500/MONTH just for their hosting fees: https://opencollective.com/jellyfin

If everyone using jellyfin contributed $1/month, I bet that would be covered

(No, I’m not affiliated with them)

Think I’d rather pay that towards the development of Jellyfin

I’m just glad I’ve still got my MythTV running.

They’re referencing the package as a whole, plastic casing, gold internal wiring, etc. and the silicon die in the center of it all.

IMHO each new version of Windows looks & feels different to the last anyway, so most (general users) wouldn’t know the difference - they just need a web browser an email client and an office suite.

That 1 Windows-only program they use is probably not compatible with the next version of Windows too

I’m using a Pi Zero as a voice satellite with an additional mic hat and a speaker hanging off the audio output and it’s … ok

There’s definitely much lower WAF with this option

The voice assistant has built-in audio which appears to be high (enough) quality and considering it’s case, power, etc, not to mention funding the advancement of open source voice control, it’s just overall “better”

If you’ve got a Pi lying around with a mic & speaker, definitely give it a go

What’s the general thoughts on running a TOR node?

I think an exit node would probably get my (domestic) ISP asking some questions and / or my static IP getting blocklisted quickly

Yep, BOINC has regularly warmed my home office over many a winter… until I shutdown that machine.

Maybe I should try again…

And clean up the crime scene…

Yep. Like a map website…
