DAS is 1:1, It’s more or less like just connecting en external hard drive to your computer.

SAN can do some crazier stuff. You can take arrays and attach them to LUN’s and to sign lungs to separate computers. You have fiber optic routing and virtual networks, sometimes iSCSI. But that stuff is extremely expensive and power hungry and did I mention extremely expensive

NAS is basically just a computer with disks attached to it sharing the data through one of her protocols you need.

For home gaming, even sharing with a extended family, truenas, unraid, or just a computer with ZFS is ideal.

ZFS is the elite but slightly harder way to do it. Your volumes all need to be the same size even if your disks are different sizes. There’s regular maintenance that needs to be applied, But it’s very fast and very flexible and very easy to expand.

Unraid is very slow but very flexible, the discs aren’t in a raid they’re in a JBOD, so really really slow, But if you lose one disc all you’ve lost is the data on that disk, and you can run up to two parity discs. As long as you’re parity drives are larger than your largest data drive.

Truenas is more of an unraid type situation but with a ZFS. Both unraid and truenas support virtualization and/or containers for running applications and give you nice metrics and meters and stuff.

You can hand roll with Debian, ZFS, docker and proxmox.

I think DAS is pretty much dead. If you have a ton of ephemeral data, and you need to do high speed work on it It’s a reasonable solution. But I think for the most part eight terabyte nvme has made it pretty niche.

I’ve already left most of that. But I still have an Android phone that can’t survive without most of that.

NFC payments, wearables.

Getting rid of my custom domain workspace OAuth is a freaking nightmare.

Porque no los dos?

There is no functional difference between them scraping you systematically and them coming to you on behalf of user. They’re coming to scrape you either way, being asked by someone is just going to make them do it in a smarter fashion.

Also, if you’re not using Gemini, damned if Google.com doesn’t search you with it anyway. They want these AIs trained bad, sooner or later almost all searching will be done through AI. There will eventually be no option.

You are correct that blocking all AI calls well eventually make your search results not work.

So if you want organic traffic, you have to allow ai scraping eventually. You’re just going to get diminishing returns until a point.

The secret is to make awful doughnuts with da bomb spiked filling and offer them a compliment doughnut when they arrive. Water is $3, soda is $4, and milk/soy milk is $5.

Oh, Plex has the risk. A vulnerability in Plex is how LastPass lost all their source code. A vulnerability in Tautulli which he had ported outside surfaced his auth token, then he was able to use the auth token to get into Plex and they were able to hit an rce vulnerability and pull the entire git repo the guy had locally.

The key difference is Plex at least has a security team and their name on the line with their investors.

It’s messy. Making a balanced law around it is sketchy. Consumers deserve to own the games they buy, straight up. Businesses deserve to be able to sell their assets when they fold and have them continue to be worth something so they can live on to make new games and their old games can go to new companies to keep development rolling.

There’s obviously low-hanging fruit. If your game is single-player and you’re just doing an online piracy check, and you go out of business, you leave the check servers running in a trust for like five years with the code to remove the check from escrow. Tick Tock, you either relight the game in time somewhere, or it becomes free to play.

But when you have something like Clash of Clans, where you need battle servers. Those assets are useless once you open that code and 100% support a community-run game. The game could otherwise be passed to another studio, and development could continue. Selling and moving games to other companies and publishers with breaks in the middle happens a lot. How long after a game collapses should they wait for it to become worthless to the market? The obvious answer to the consumer is immediately, because they bought it, they own it. Maybe you have to keep a certain amount of money from the proceeds and use it to refund the users. It still sucks for the you don’t own it anymore concept.

Developers and publishers aren’t fair to consumers without guardrails (and there are none), but those rails should also be reasonable to companies.

If the commission does nothing, it’ll probably be wrapped around this clusterfuck.

I do have a worry that the studios will just stop selling games and everything will go subscription if they are required to provide servers and source on game shutdown. It’ll just push more piracy, less sales, less games and everyone loses.

I really wish companies would just have pride in their stuff and be fair to their users and users could just bear a fair price for good games.

I don’t need a bed, but an air mattress is a HARD no.

I’d rather sleep on a clear carpet with a blanket.

The interesting part about doing a vignette is that it shows up in ELA when you run it through any one of the dozen doctored image detector websites, the re-encode around the changes shows up in the data when it inspects them, this image has zero error level deviation.

That’s interesting because it also doesn’t appear as AI at all through the AI detection tests. But here you’re saying it’s actually edited. Maybe the CDN was heavy-handed enough to destroy the ELA. Zip up your edited copy and give that to the masses. The nay-sayers can run it through Fotoforensics and see it’s manually edited. You have already passed all the AI detection pages with 0% AI probability.

but, think of it… RACING STRIPES!!! or FLAMES!!!

You use bamboo skewers to mount the things off the bottom and dampen vibration. mabey use an internal flap and bent the disks out the front and the PSU out the back. If you have enough cardboard, you could even bend it a bit and do like a jet engine with the fan sticking out the front.

I mean, it’s the preferable timeline to what we’re experiencing now in the US.

A lot of neophyte self hosters Will try running the binary in Windows instead. Experienced self hosters will indeed use docker.

Then out of the ones that are using docker some of them will set it up as privileged.

And then how many of those people actually make read-only versus how many just add the path and don’t think about it.

Don’t confuse your good practices with what the average person will do.

I’ve heard jellyfin has a lot of security issues

The biggest known stuff I saw on their GitHub is that a number of the exposed service URLs under the hood don’t require auth. So, it’s open-source with known requirements, you can tell easily from the outside that it’s running, and you can cause it to activate a LOT of packages without logging in. That’s a zero-day in any package that can be passed a payload away from disaster.

AS far as TVOS, I’m kinda surprised swiftfin doesn’t service you.

I went from full piracy to legit (netflix, steam etc) just to be driven back to piracy,

I think most of us who were of job age did the same. $10 a month not to worry about disc failures, shitty updates and they have most of what I want to watch? HELLS YES. We were naive to think they’d keep it going. They’re all trying to get up to that $100 per month per head cable price.

They are, however, absolutely thrilled that the smallest resistor package is now ~ 1x the plank length on the narrow side.

Location sensor would be a good minimum bar.

A custom card for your app that is just basically a iframe into your app with auth would also be pretty decent. Your version of a map looks really nice.

Maybe surfacing metrics of distance traveled or number of geolocations.

I’ll have to install the app and play around with it to make other recommendations but those are the first things that come to mind.

It was not Netflix. At a certain point Sony decided to strip the future from the PlayStation you didn’t have to strip the future but you could no longer update the PlayStation.

Netflix was first to require a newer version of the OS but sooner or later every game and every streaming title would require you to update to play the latest version.

They stripped it under the guise of piracy, It did absolutely nothing to stop piracy. The most they accomplished was keeping you from making a ISO of a disc after a long convoluted Linux install.

There were already blueray drives on the market that could read them enough to produce an ISO. It’s not like you could play any of the PlayStation games under Linux.

Furthermore, if you decided you didn’t want to game or stream on it anymore you could have left Linux on it and if anybody was really pirating using that feature they would have just bought another one and played on it. The only person they f***** over in this scenario was the average consumer.

Well, I don’t own shit from Sony anymore

I had two big screen TVs, receiver, PS3, audio gear, Dv cam. When they forced me to choose between disabling Linux boot on the PS3 or using Netflix just literally stripping away features I paid for, I never bought another Sony product.

They used to fill living rooms and be all over personal wear. Now they make an ok showing in what, mirrorless cameras?
