  • What Drove You to Madness?

    Jump

  • At my last job, there was no planning of work/projects. Like, there was a general plan of "We need feature X by Q3 and here's what it should do", but nothing about breaking work down into smaller units or prioritizing different tasks.

    The manager would drop an email: "Hey, can you do ...." and that was it. Now it's another thing to throw down the waterfall. Big surprise, the same bastard would harp about how the project was underperforming!

  • Why Chrome only?

    Jump

  • It's probably using WebView, or whatever it's called where an android app brings up a browser window. If you have Firefox as your default web browser, apps will use it instead of chrome. It's usually pretty nice, because if you have adblock in Firefox you also get adblock in the app.

    It's possible that the sign-in webpage wants to talk to the camera before returning control to the app.

  • If it's trying to talk to a device over Bluetooth or USB, it's not supported in Firefox. Mozilla refuses to implement WebUSB because they think the danger of letting people accidentally flash malware onto a physical device outweighs the benefits.

  • The DM is railroading this entire campaign, first the ridiculous delta quadrant thing, and now this.

  • The episode where Neelix dies and gets ressurrected by Borg technology is up there as one of the best Voyager episodes. I'm just annoyed that Neelix's new relationship with religion and death never comes up again in later episodes.

  • There was nothing RESTful or well planned about this API's interfaces, and the work to do something like that would have been nontrivial. Management never prioritized the work.

  • Yes, But...

    Jump

  • At a prior job, our API load balancers would swallow all errors and return an HTTP 200 response with no content. It was because we had one or two clients with shitty integrations that couldn't handle anything but 200. Of course, they brought in enough money that we couldn't ever force them to fix it on their end.

  • [Solved] Nextcloud AIO inside container - domain verification fails

    Jump

  • Are you able to independently confirm that the domaincheck container is listening to the right port? Eg netstat -tunlp on the host

  • I understand what you're saying, but his experiment allowed the embryos to come to term and be born as human babies. Scientists have worked with human embryos before and avoided similar outcry by not allowing them to develop further (scientific outcry, not religious). Calling his work an experiment on human embryos ignores the fact that he always intended for his work to impact the real lives of real humans who would be born.

  • Gavin Newsom pressured behind the scenes to kill pro-LGBTQ+ bills, state lawmakers say

    Jump

  • My brain will rupture in rage if Newsom becomes the 2028 Democratic presidential candidate.

    I wish it hadn't taken until this past year for me to notice how willing the dems are to horse trade people's rights in the name of "business as usual".

  • Boycotting FOSS projects in the wake of the "buy canadian/european" movement makes no sense

    Jump

  • There definitely are FOSS projects run by the US government: Ghidra is an open source reverse engineering tool developed by the NSA.

  • Radarr now suggests not to use uTorrent

    Jump

  • I switched from that container to one that uses qbittorrent and a VPN.

    qBittorrent web UI works better on a phone for my use case, and I kept having to manually restart the transmission container whenever the VPN connection dropped.

  • If you got accidentally duplicated, do you think your copy would try and kill you?

    Jump

  • I always felt like murderous clones are a bit different from evil twins.

    From a sci-fi perspective, I've noticed that murderous clone stories tend to explore the following themes:

    • Whose life is more valid? Does an original have any more right to life than the clone? What aspects of life can never be split between two people with equal claim?
    • Would the murder ever matter, in the grand scheme of things? As far as society can tell, the world is exactly the same before you are cloned and after one of you kills the other.
    • Could the survivor ever be brought to justice? If the clone tried to kill you because they knew you would try to kill them, does that make it self defence or premeditated murder? Would any punishment would be a net loss for society, when compared before the clone appeared?
    • Could this "self destructive" impulse hide deeply inside even the nicest person? How much does a person love themselves? Can self-love even apply when the "self" is also external?

    Jellyfin is not just good... but better than Plex now?!

    Jump

  • There are definitely UI inconsistencies across devices, especially smart TVs. Jellyfin on Firestick looks different from Jellyfin on Roku which looks different from Jellyfin on WebOS. Some devices deliver Jellyfin through a thin browser client, and in those cases you get access to a unified design. Outside of that it's a crapshoot as what the app will let you do. Of course, it's a volunteer project (and all my thanks to any maniac willing to develop TV apps), so I don't expect that everything can be easily and neatly unified.

    I can't deny that it's sometimes hard to support my users because of this. Someone complains that they're getting movies dubbed in an unwanted language: I can't guarantee that the button to select audio track will look the same on their end when I talk them through it.

  • Trying to understand what should change on my current setup

    Jump

  • Ah, I see what you mean. Yeah, no way around that without a GPU or a processor with integrated graphics.

    You should be able to get a used workstation GPU for $20-40 on eBay. Something from Dell, or a basic nvidia quadro would do the trick. If you could sell the 1660 super for more than that, could be worth the effort.

    Alternatively, the 1660 Super would do the trick nicely if you ever needed to transcode video streams, like from running Jellyfin or Plex.

  • However, I was never able to have the server completely headless.

    Depending on what you mean by "completely headless" it may or may not be possible.

    Simplest solution: When you're installing OS and setting up the system, you have a GPU and monitor for local access. Once you've configured ssh access, you no longer need the GPU or monitor. You could get by with a cheap "Just display something" graphics card and keep it permanently installed, only plugging in the monitor when something is not working right. This is what I used to do.

    Downside: If you ever need to perform an OS reinstall, debug boot issues, or change BIOS settings, you will need to reconnect the monitor.

    Medium tech solution: Install a cheap graphics card, and then connect your server with something like PiKVM or BliKVM. They can plug into your GPU and motherboard and provide a web interface to control your server physically. Everything from controlling physical power buttons to emulating a USB storage device is possible. You'll be able to boot from cold start, install OS, and change BIOS settings without ever needing a physical monitor. This is what I do now.

    Downsides: Additional cost to buy the KVM hardware, plus now you have to remember to keep your KVM software updated. Anyone who controls the KVM has equivalent physical access to the server, so keep it secure and off the public internet.
