If you are ok with Jellyfin being public, then I would just put it in front of an nginx proxy. That way, your nginx proxy will handle SSL termination. With SSL, your ISP won't be able to inspect the traffic directly.

If you are running docker, then I'd recommend jwilder/nginx-proxy and its lets encrypt companion jrcs/letsencrypt-nginx-proxy-companion. It makes putting things behind an SSL proxy very easy! This of course assumes you have a public IP address through your ISP and aren't stuck behind CG-NAT!

A second option is to keep it private then use a VPN (this is what I do). Wireguard can be a good option although setting up each device is a bit manual, since you have to generate key pairs for each of them. This also requires you have a public IP through your ISP or have a public box that bridges your public VPN to your home network. That said, it works really well.

Tailscale is a free, but commercial option built on top of wireguard that makes set up a lot easier. If you are stuck behind CG-NAT this is probably your easiest option.

I completely agree with your sentiment regarding the exploration of imperialism and militarism in Star Trek. These are indeed complex topics that offer great potential for thought-provoking storytelling. By delving into these themes from multiple perspectives, a deeper understanding of the nuances and contradictions inherent in such ideologies can be achieved.

A mini-series that tackles imperialism and militarism from the standpoint of the Federation would provide a captivating exploration of the challenges and moral dilemmas faced by an ostensibly enlightened and peaceful society. It would allow viewers to witness the internal struggles and debates within the Federation as they navigate the delicate balance between defending their principles and the potential dangers of expanding their influence. This perspective could delve into questions such as the Federation's responsibility in protecting vulnerable civilizations, the potential pitfalls of imposing their values on others, and the consequences of using force in the pursuit of peace.

Equally intriguing would be a second series that explores the same events from the viewpoint of the other society or civilization involved. This approach would offer an invaluable opportunity to challenge the Federation's perspective and shed light on the motivations, grievances, and justifications of the opposing side. By portraying the complexities of an alternative society, viewers would be encouraged to question their own preconceived notions and assumptions, fostering a deeper empathy and understanding for those who may be deemed adversaries.

Such a dual-perspective approach would create a rich tapestry of storytelling, highlighting the inherent subjectivity and complexity of moral and ethical issues. It would emphasize that neither side is inherently right or wrong, but rather the product of their own unique circumstances, histories, and worldviews. This exploration would not only be intellectually stimulating but would also encourage reflection on our own world and the dynamics of power, ideology, and conflict that shape it.

I have an offline raspberry pi hooked up to my tv that just plays Futurama. There is no controller, no ability to switch episodes, it just continues playing randomly. If you turn on the TV it will just be in the middle of a random futurama episode.

I've finally ripped all my original Trek DVD/Blu-Rays and am going to make a second one for Trek.

The only choice I'll have to make then is input 1 for Futurama or input 2 for Trek!

Vikunja is very slick!

Youtube channels (I unsubscribed from everything on my YouTube account, hardly ever login, and only use RSS to follow the channels I want)

This is the way to do it. I can't stand youtube's interface and its recommendations, auto play, and other anti-features frustrate me. I find that on youtube, when I go look at a channel, I often can't figure out which video is the most recent, and really struggle to see figure out what I've watched and what I haven't.

Using RSS let's me see when there is a new video posted just from the channels I am interested in. I don't have to go hunting. FreshRSS will watch it through youtube-nocookie.com, but I often find using yt-dlp is better experience, especially for anything longer than 5 minutes.

Parent's is more complicated, but this simple script may be a good place to start. In this case, I follow a channel that posts new music videos for discovery. This automatically downloads (just the audio) using yt-dlp to a local directory. It could easily be modified to download the video (just change the -f flag). I run this with cron once a day.

I use freshrss. It is my primary source of information. Here are some of the things I follow:

  • Various Local News Sources
  • Local City Council Blog
  • Various National/International News Sources
  • Various Blogs
  • Comics (SMBC, xkcd, ...)
  • Music Review Sites/Blogs
  • Various Record Label feeds (I run a small distributor)
  • YouTube Channels :: This is so much better than going to youtube
  • New Releases/ChangeLogs of various OSS projects I follow and host
  • Various Planet (Gnome/Gnu/Debian/...) Aggregators
  • Google Alerts
  • Lemmy Communities
  • Reddit Communities (We'll see where these go)
  • HomeLab/Cron :: Instead of dealing with emails, I generate RSS feeds from my cron scripts/home lab notifications
  • Email Subscriptions :: I take some email notification (like new releases on bandcamp) and convert them to RSS

This is very well put. I don’t hate discovery but it isn’t trek to me (although neither is tos).

I just want an hour of philosophical debates.

Also Picard must the be the best boss ever. When there is a difficult decision he lets every commanding officer state their opinion, listeners intently, then he makes the decision and rally’s everyone to get behind it.

Nextcloud is nice since iPhone natively supports caldav/carddav so you can use the built in reminders app.

Interesting. I don’t see this issue.

I have a dedicated music player with all my favorite music for offline listening (fiio x3 and also a pinephone with lollipop)

I also have a Jellyfin server and use finamp on my phone. It isn’t public so I have an always on WireGuard vpn.

For my stereo, I have a raspberry pi hooked up. It runs mpd and mounts the same music directory as Jellyfin using nfs.

The raspberry pi also has an nfc reader and I have nfc cards with printed artwork on them. Tapping them to the reader starts playing that album.

I also recommend self hosting photoprism.
