possiblylinux127, in Plex To Launch a Store For Movies and TV Shows

If its DRM free its not a problem.

shrugal, (edited )

It would be great, but no chance in hell movie studios would go along with this.

possiblylinux127,

Yeah, I know

cyberpunk007,

Not until it’s a mandatory popup or recommendation any time you want to watch. Or maybe mandatory ads and popups on “new releases”. With Plex, nothing surprises me now.

billwashere,

Yeah this “pretty major UX refresh” line bothers me A LOT. Kinda like when Amazon fucked up the UX/UI on the cheap fire tv sticks.

possiblylinux127,

Well I use Jellyfin as I don’t want proprietary software on my system and this isn’t making me have any regrets. The benefit of Plex is what again?

RalphWolf, in Haier hits Home Assistant plugin dev with takedown notice

There we go. Haier is now on my personal “do not ever buy from” list. Congratulations, Haier.

jol,

TAKE THIS COMMENT DOWN. YOU’RE CAUSING US GREAT FINANCIAL HARM. MILLIONS!!

Vub, in What should I use my RPi4 for?

Navidrome is neat

TheBuenasTardes, in What should I use my RPi4 for?

Someone posted the code for circadian whole home lighting, running on a pi not too long ago. Might be kinda cool to try out.

shalva97, in What should I use my RPi4 for?

try Jackett + sonarr + radarr + qBittrorrent or sell it

singularity, in LinguaCafe - Confused why the provided docker-compose doesn't work.

You seem to be missing your username in the volume paths, e.g. /home/username/Documents.

Natal, (edited )

Sorry that’s on me. That’s one thing I removed from the pastebin file on purpose, it’s here in the real one. I copy paste my path to be sure it’s correct.

I’ve got 3 tricks for ya:

  • backups
  • backups
  • backups
praise_idleness,

What are you saying? My gitea is my backup!

superduperenigma, (edited )

True pro gamers just use

/Project

/Project1

/Project_latest

/Project_final

/Project_final2

/Project_final_forrealthistime

limonfiesta,

Are you the hacker known as 4Chan? How else could you know my version naming convention?

Regardless, all will be forgiven if you can remind what folder and file actually contains the final version. So… which is it?

jaybone,

Did the hacker 4chan write the pho SQL functions?

taaz, in I love my Gitea. Any tips and tricks?
praise_idleness,

I was aware of forgejo back when I first started hosting Gitea. Didn’t see much of a diff back then so I just went with arguably more popular option at that time.

About few months after it’s mostly just because I’m too lazy of a person.

rufus, (edited )

Forgejo is a fork of Gitea. As of now I don’t think they have diverged much. So they’re (still) about the same. It was mainly created because of the takeover of the domain and trademark by a for profit company. Not because of different functionality.

@SeeJayEmm@lemmy.procrastinati.org avatar

Reads to me like the container it’s running as a user that doesn’t have permission to the volume path.

Natal,

Is there a command to check that?

SeeJayEmm,
@SeeJayEmm@lemmy.procrastinati.org avatar

I’m not sure if there’s a correct way. What I’ve done in the past is use “ps” to find out what user the processes are running as.

lemmyvore, in Fighting with immich

As explained in this discussion this seems to be a problem with the web interface only, caused by the framework used by the interface (Svelte). It seems that getting subpaths to work with Svelte is not supported, and the Immich devs are probably right to think it should be fixed by Svelte, not by Immich.

Shimitar,

I fully agree…

ashok36, (edited ) in Plex To Launch a Store For Movies and TV Shows

I was trying to think how Plex thinks this is going to play out, knowing that this move will piss off their customer base. Then I realized, this isn’t a play for Plex’s existing customer base. This is a play for their customer’s “friends and family” that are enjoying shared libraries already.

Their ‘customer’ base has for many many years been developing a large user base of technologically naive people with Plex apps installed who could never run their own server. If Plex knows, for example, that for every paying customer there’s three other users pulling from someone’s library, that’s a huge opportunity for them to convert those users to paying customers.

Everyone that set up a Plex server and then shared it with your tech-phobic parents, cousins, friends, etc… We made this possible.

I don’t like it but I can’t argue with the logic from Plex here.

-edit- Tightened up the grammar.

skozzii,

I like this theory and I hope your logic check out. I am a little worried that I will have to make a change soon.

cyberpunk007,

Yikes this is a good theory. Eventually we will be snuffed out. Sharing will stop. Etc.

billwashere,

Well maybe not. Without the shared libraries I doubt the tech-phobic users will stick around for movies they can likely find other places, especially since I doubt Plex gets very good deals for content.

ashok36,

I wouldn’t be so sure if that. It’s possible, yeah, but if my theory is right they see the library sharing as the carrot to get normies to download the plex app onto their roku or apple TV.

Pivoting to a streaming only app would close off that avenue for user acquisition permanently.

@avidamoeba@lemmy.ca avatar

Is that bad though? I don’t mind renting a movie I really like even if my friend has it on their Plex. Especially if it’s from a small studio. Currently I do that via Google TV. Plex Inc being a small private company might use the money better than a publicly traded giant. I wouldn’t mind my friends and family spending a few bucks on it either.

Of course if Plex starts enshitifying existing private streaming features to push this, that’ll be another matter altogether. Which would not be unexpected.

lambda,
@lambda@programming.dev avatar

Yeah, I’ve been switched to using Jellyfin anyways. I hope they can do this successfully. They haven’t been the best for a while anyways…

avidamoeba,
@avidamoeba@lemmy.ca avatar

I’ll probably trial Jellyfin too in preparation to migrate the family should push come to shove.

lambda,
@lambda@programming.dev avatar

It’s worth donating if you have the means to. I paid for a lifetime Plex subscription. So, I felt uncomfortable not donating to Jellyfin. They take donations on open collective.

redcalcium, in LinguaCafe - Confused why the provided docker-compose doesn't work.

Probably just a permission issue. The doc seems to recommend giving relaxed permission to the temp folder volume:

sudo chmod 777 /your/linguacafe/temp/folder -R

Natal,

sudo chmod 777 /your/linguacafe/temp/folder -R

I have done that and it doesn’t seem to help. Edited main post to reflect that.

redcalcium,

Now you seems to get MySQL permission issue (or wrong database password, but your issue is probably not that). When using docker compose, MySQL won’t see access coming from linguacafe’s container as coming from localhost, but instead it’s coming from a different IP address inside docker subnet. So make sure your MySQL user has proper privilege, e.g. by granting all permissions to ‘user’@‘%’.

vzq, in I love my Gitea. Any tips and tricks?

I love it when I check out am applicants’ GitHub and run into a bunch of repositories with mods for hentai games.

CosmicTurtle,

I mean…are they good mods? Does the candidate have good code etiquette?

Honestly, the fact that a candidate would mod any game, let alone a hentai game, would be pluses in my book.

vzq,

I definitely do not count it against them as long as they know how to human at the interview. I just review the code as I would any repo.

The only thing is that with regular projects I tend to go “I noticed on your GitHub you have project X that uses technology Y, etc etc”. With H projects I just go “do you have experience with Y” and let him choose how much he wants to share about the project. So far they remain vague on the non technical details and I let them leave with their dignity intact.

So, ranked, way ahead of candidates without visible projects, but slightly behind people with projects we can discuss in detail in front of the people from HR ;)

superduperenigma,

Power move.

Men of culture

bravesilvernest, in Fighting with immich

I’ve been using it for about a month, and love it.

My one complaint: self-signed certs on reverse proxies seem to break the android app backup. I’m not sure why, but internal CA seems to make things angry. Its more likely to be a local setup issue than anything in immich, but frustrating to pin down.

Shimitar,

Why self sign? Use Let’s Encrypt, its free and works just great. That’s what I do

bravesilvernest,

All the traffic is internal, so I can get away with it 🙃

Really was just interested in what cert generation entailed and did a fun little dive a few years back.

Shimitar,

Self signed certs needs to be allowed explicitly. If the app didn’t took those into consideration then there is not much you can do.

Another point against immich I guess if you need self signed.

I will try to support immich actively in the future, even if my free time is really small nowadays.

bravesilvernest,

My current backup strategy is BTSync, which while super easy to get going is a pain in the ass to look up old images. Using direct IP on the app works perfectly, and the DNS lookup only works internally anyways.

All that to say that I’m probably going to use it and remove the btsync approach in a couple months.

Shimitar,

Immich is very good for photo backup. I would say it’s it best use. Be aware of the limitations above tough.

I find very annoying not having a bare metal installation way. Will try to make it work in the future maybe.

conrad82, (edited )

I also have internal only traffic, but I still use let’s encrypt. I self signed for a couple of years, but switching to proper certificates made things much simpler and better. Especially on mobile.

I use a combination of my own domain and caddy. and duckdns, since my domain registrar does not have an api caddy can use, but I can point my domain to my duckdns domain and it works 👍

bravesilvernest,

I’m the bad guy that installed my CA where needed lol but nice!
