I use Lidarr to watch for new releases and try to get some bootleg albums, while main way of getting things is trough some websites or just pulling stuff from qobuz directly.
All the music is FLAC with a small percentage in mp3 320. also, man sometimes wants to get that 300GB discography pack with 6 different releases of the same album 😁
Do you have sample of what kind of errors you’re getting? are they docker related or service related? as in jackett can’t connect/reach sonarr for example?
Yeah, Project Elixir.
funny tho, I was supporting a PE “dev” for a while… lovely news
so true
I got a used mini pc to run as a media center, running the arr stack and torrent client that’s bound to the VPN interface. For usenet stuff I don’t care is it on VPN or not. Its running headless.
If you make sure that the torrent client is set to be bound on the VPN interface, you are fine, if VPN is not up, it should not start, since the interface is not up. For VPN I use wireguard and set the VPN to be brought up by via wg-quick command and use systemd to start it during boot.
You’ll be fine using it for personal stuff along with pulling stuff from high seas.
works fine for me, didn’t really see any big issues.
At least, for me, Nix was never attractive, and it should be by all means, the features it provides. I still see this as an alternative, where I’m more than satisfied with my bash scripts and git repos, syncthing backups to rebuild the whole system.
And, on the second part, this schism that happened in Nix is the same recipie that happened in other projects. I just find it funny.
I’m running it trough docker with VNC, and it works fine for my use case.
Navidrome over wireguard, and music library in folders and proper tagging trough beets and picard. using subsonic as a client for it. tried plex and plexamp but I’m moving away from them.
First of all, this might now answer your question fully, but…
spotify-dl uses youtube music to download stuff, and if you have youtube premium you can get higher quality downloaded, I think it does opus 128 or 156 kbit, and the sound is quite good.
tidal, deezer, or qobuz have cd or hi-res quality songs, and there are utils that help you get stuff from their service. qobuz-dl’s the one I have been experimenting with. Obviously you need subscription for it, but spotify is generally shit.
Apart from that I used few other sources to get my music.
I was hit aggressively by HC sales team last year, we are using TF and Vault, and were looking to add consul, now it is pretty vauge how it will all pan put
I’m using usenet.farm, works well
I use windows for 2 things - personal pc to play games, work laptop dualboot for excel usage if some super old messy sheets. everything else linux.
use dpkg -r to remove the packages:
openjdk-17-jre-headless:amd64 openjdk-17-jre:amd64 default-jre minecraft-launcher geogebra
Then install minecraft-launcher and see what it says. might be that openjdk is clashing with default-java.
my 2 cents just on this…
Bash for quick scripts, Ruby for some smaller scripts, Golang has been a favourite as of late due to integration into the ecosystem with k8s,p8s, envoy…
Ask questions, don’t assume. Keep notes of meetings, and notes of your work, little bits. Always have a good rollback plan.
Check netmaker for wireguard vpn if you want a ui, but its straightforward to set it up manually.
I’ve worked on both, and as long as I can plug the laptop in a nice monitor, with keyboard and mouse I don’t care that much. Laptops great for mobility, and the keyboard and trackpad, well you get used to it, and doesn’t bother you that much. For myself, its wfh and then going to the office, isn’t a big deal, all stuff is on the laptop and things are synced if I need to do disaster recovery. It depends on the situation, would you benefit from it. if not, desktop’s fine
did it before my smoke break
