Since i'm a console player mainly i find myself trying to use a controller when playing pc. However, i recently started playing half life 1 which didnt have a controller option and its gotten me more used to the idea of using keyboard and mouse

Bodhi Linux. I have an old hp desktop and it only has 2 gb of ram and 2 cores. I wanted a real lightweight distro and settled on arch linux but one day i tripped and knocked the tower over. When i booted it back up i had the infamous blinking underscore. I tried reinstalling arch multiple times and it kept failing, so i tried a lightweight arch based distro called archbang, same issue. I tried manjaro same issue.

At this point i wanted to try something not arch based but wanted something that came with minimal preinstalled programs like arch. Research led me to bodhi which is a light weight distro based on ubuntu. Installed with no issues and been using it ever since, about 3 years now.

Don't know what i damaged on the motherboard but it must have been something integral to arch based distros, but i'm kind of glad it happened because i love bodhi now

It has allowed an ancient computer to do so much. I've run matrix servers and web servers, written my own webapps to run on it and so much more

Isn't this why you use venv?

They are both media servers. Plex is closed source and requires you to make an account with them to use whereas jellyfin is open source and requires no account.

Basically when you set them up you just pick a directory for movies and tv shows and any video files in that directory can be streamed thru the app or web ui

I prefer jellyfin because of the differences i mentioned earlier but i use both (you can point them at the same directories). I haven't really had any issues with jellyfin performance but run plex as a backup.

Plex has plex shares too where you can stream other peoples content from your server. Idk if jellyfin has that feature

Arr and stremio serve different purposes. If you just want to watch content yourself then do stremio.

If you want to keep certain movies yourself and want to supply a streaming service to friends and family then arr is better.

Arr has ability to watch your content with no internet.

If your into foss software arr is also way to go

Nice. Just want to point out that there is jellyseerr for jellyfin as an alternative to overseerr.

There is also reiverr which is new which allows managing sonarr,radarr, and jellyfin (basically it providers an interface to watch jellyfin content and also add episodes and movies to sonarr/radarr. I use reiverr for me as admin but it doesnt do requests as of now so i keep jellyseerr for my users

There is also watchtower on docker that automatically updates your images

And finally there is rdt-client (real-debrid torrent client) which is a real debrid client that pretends to be qbittorrent and allows sonarr/radarr to download from real debrid instead of torrenting it

Hmm, i think you can work with firewalled. Mine shows as firewalled. Have you configured your browser to use the http://localhost:4444 as http proxy?

If you have try to browse to the following addresses:

http://localhost:7657 (this is the i2p router webui and if it doesnt load then either i2p is not running or is in a broken state)

http://localhost:7657/i2psnark (i2psnark is built into java i2p and if the previous link loaded and this one doesnt then you dont have snark, which may simply be a limitation of androidl

http://notbob.i2p (i just picked an i2p site, this one is an index of multiple i2p sites. If it doesnt load but the first one does, then your router is not working properly or your browser is not configured properly)

http://localhost:7070 (if this loads then you have i2pd installed instead of the java version, i2pd is not built with snark)

I suggest you install i2p on a computer as all this stuff works out of the box

Did you install i2p or i2pd?

If it is the java version (not i2pd) you would access in browser like this http://localhost:7657/i2psnark

But idk if it works on android

You can use arpwatch. It reports new mac addresses on a given network interface.

Here's my setup. I have a raspberry pi running pihole and unbound. I set that raspberry pi as my primary dns on my router. Now in order to use the internet all devices will make dns queries over wifi (you can use a wired pi as well) to the pi which means it will also see all devices using your wifi and notify you when a new one shows up or if an ip changes mac addresses.

Keep in mind these notifications use smtp (email) and you most likely need a mail server to receive them.

I have a matrix server on my network that has postmoogle (email bridge) that can receive the emails from arpwatch and send them to me as a matrix message

  1. Doesn't really matter imo. Internally maybe slightly faster, maybe some games require internal, but i run games on my external, loading may go slower unless you have a nice chunk of ram.

  2. Seed

  3. What do you mean by safer? Both can be dangerous if it executes code. If you mean getting caught torrenting leaks your ip address (hence why people use vpn)

If you dont want to spend money there is i2p, set up an i2p router, configure a browser to use it, http://2.postman.i2p is a tracker there, just paste the magnet into i2psnark, no vpn required.

Note it will be much slower download

Kind of like a multireddit but it shows up in my subscriptions as one community.

It would be nice if say I am subscribed to technology@beehaw.org, Technology@lemmy.ml, and Technology@kbin.social.

Is there a way that I can see all 3 communities in one thread just for me?

like it could be technology@$MY_USERNAME and I could choose which communities go in this multicommunity?

 

Ranni was like "I have high hopes for thee."

Then as I'm leaving the room I held the sprint button too long and ran right off the top of the stairs to my death right in front of her.

Lol.

I'm sure she has great faith in me

 

Not sure if this is the right place to ask but when i want to go to a website like beehaw.org, my router queries its DNS server which responds with the IP address. But my router doesn't know where to find that IP so it asks a nearby router if it knows and that router passes that info to another router until they find the path.

If wifi is radio waves and radio waves travel at the speed of light where as down a copper wire data travels at only partial speed of light, why is wifi slower?

Is it simply interference from other signals causing constant retransmissions or what?

Also what is a route? Why can't i just shoot a packet from my router to the public internet and that website's router picks it up. Why does it need router's in the middle?

 

i want 'subscribed' to show when i open the app but it is stuck at local.

i cannot change it in the app but i logged onto my instance thru the browser and changed it. in my app settings it shows it as default but it still opens to "local"

does this not work?
