  • [Solved] Own domain for Jellyfin and privacy concerns

    Jump

  • So there could be a potenital issue where the correct IP address has been sent but the record has not been updated ... Yesterday for example we faced the issue that at least one of three could not access the server. Suddenly it worked for someone who could not connect, only for him to lose access again after a couple of minutes. We all have been in Discord during that time, and the internet connection was fine for everyone.

  • The server is running at my friends house who has a fiber connection. When we face these connection issues, it does not necessarily mean that all of us cannot access Jellyfin but often times only a couple of us cannot access (same error as if you mistype a web-address, so it cannot resolve the domain name). During these periods of connection issues, the internet connection of my friend is working completely fine. I have a script running that constantly sends the current IP address to the dynDNS provider. I also looked into how often our ISP changes the IP address and it is not very often and not during these issues.

  • Thanks, yes I also use a script that constantly sends the current IP address to the dynDNS provider. I could be completely wrong, but the internet connection of my friends house where the server stands is fine even during these connection issues. So I would blame the DNS resolution, but it is also my first time running a server.

  • I have a script running which sends the current IP to our dynDNS provider. I would assume that this is fine then?

  • I am using dynv6.com. The reason I blame the DNS resolution is because when I have issues connecting (as if the domain is not available), it does not mean that my friends cannot connect either. The server is at a friends house who has a fiber connection and who has no issues when we habe trouble connecting again. I could be totally wrong, but to me it sounds like dynv6 has some troubles.

    I also have a script running, which constantly updates dynv6 with our current IP address.

  • Look how much I'd need to purchase a fraction of their game time!

  • Turtle WoW is just amazing. This is how you release new content without power creep or losing meaning from the existing content. I never enjoyed WoW more than with Turtle.

  • Try Butt Nutts Today!!

  • I expected Butt Nuts to be something different...

  • Hot Take Time: What is a popular long-running franchise that just needs to stop?

    Jump

  • Jurassic Park is one of my most favourite movies ever. Although they come not even close to the first one, I still rewatch 2 and 3 from time to time. But Jurassic World is a disaster for me. The second one was already so bad that it caused losing my whole interest for the World franchise.

    I still cannot believe how much they butchered this franchise and the initial vision for the book and the movie.

  • What’s something you own that has truly paid for itself?

  • My Casio A 168 - I like watches and typically I would opt for more expensive ones but I still marvel at the amount of watch you get for this kind of money. The design is great, very comfortable to wear, very precise and has a very good battery lifetime and background light.

    Someone else already mentioned a safety Razor.

    My iron pan - much healthier, more ecological and will last longer than I will ever live.

    Obviously my bike. Saved so much money on it. Although I still need to figure out what I should do with my very rusty chain. Should I replace it?

  • I also have one which hit break-even years ago compared to thouse Gillette Mach 3 etc ones. I am also using Proraso shaving soap, but for my sensitive skin the red one is the best, followed by white. Started with green and tried it again two months ago, bit it is not as good as the other ones for me.

  • I did a refresher course two months ago, but I haven't gotten around to buy a motorcycle yet. But everything is there, I just need the bike. Really looking forward to it. Stay safe!

  • My experience with Arch

    Jump

  • I would also add that it heavily depends on the setup a user is running. I had been running Arch with XFCE and dwm for years on a machine with a Nvidia card and I can count the number of issues I had which were not induced by my wrong-doing with three fingers. When I switched to Plasma Wayland on my new machine I faced more issues in one and a half years than with my old setup. Also, none of these issues were mentioned on the news section but were due to Plasma updates. There are just too many moving parts under heavy development with such a big DE and Wayland is also not quite 100% there yet, so for some people it can seem like Arch is rather unstable although it still is a heavy generalisation.

  • Bazzite surpasses 30k active users, gaining 5k users since two months ago 🎉

  • I don't have any slowdowns or freezes. Do you experience this with other distros as well?

    Jump

  • I see what you mean. Sometimes I wish I could tinker with it the same way as I was used to with Arch. But in the end, it just works and goes out of my way.

    Jump

  • You have complete access to the AUR via Distrobox. Also, how do you conclude that it has "many issues"? I do get that Bazzite might not be for everyone, but please, elaborate.

    Jump

  • Bazzite is absolutely great, if you just want a very reliable system that just works and goes out of your way. I lean nowadays way more into recommending Bazzite to new Linux users, since there is literally not much to initially set up, no matter the hardware. Gaming works perfectly fine and any regular users software needs get easily satisfied by the Bazaar.

  • What did you treat yourself to most recently?

    Jump

  • I literally did the exact same thing. Never played an extraction shooter before and it was a spontanous purchase. Did not regret it.

  • Serious Sam 2 was just updated after 20 years in celebration of its anniversary

    Jump

  • This game was a fever dream. Played through it in coop with a friend. Given the fact that this game is not what Serious Sam typically is associated with, it really is nice that it received an update like this after all these years. TSE is still my favourite (love the jungle/Aztec themed levels).

  • I just found out my fiancee wants to switch to linux, lets start a distro war, what should be her first? + other questions

    Jump

  • I second the atomic Fedora ones with Plasma. Very stable system, updates run automatically like she is used to, and the Bazaar software center is a great and well organized central repository for flatpaks.
