What's a common occurrence in your hobby that you think shouldn't be?
  • many parking spaces actually got converted to charging stations. and when building new parts of the city they could've taken the demand for parking into account.

    i agree that there are too many cars in the cities, but actively taking away parking isn't how you solve that problem. that just makes people hate your political party.

    solving problems like this requires an actual alternative that is as comfortable as a car to use. then people will willingly give up their cars because there is no need.

  • What's a common occurrence in your hobby that you think shouldn't be?
  • i don't like bamboo printers very much, just because of the closed ecosystem. the printers themselves are really good, besides being loud.

    i would like to switch to a different CAD program, but i couldn't figure out freecad for the life of me. fusion is still my go-to.

    thangs is my primary hosting site, just because zack freedman started gridfinity on there. and at the time, thingiverse was almost unusable from my perspective. never really tried printables tho.

  • What's a common occurrence in your hobby that you think shouldn't be?
  • you are the problem here.

    i have and ender 3 pro as well as an ender 3 max. after a PEI coated bed and a second cooling fan, the ender 3 pro curns out the best sub-300€ benchies you've ever seen.

    a friend of mine has a 3V2, and it has all the mods i would've done to a 3 pre-done.

    for budget printers like the ender series, it's a skill issue most of the time. so teach newbies how to use cheap printers, of course it isn't plug and play. you paid 200€ for it.

  • What's a common occurrence in your hobby that you think shouldn't be?
  • i'm really into cars, and want to own (maybe modify) an MR2 1st gen.

    problem is: the german government is trying its best to make owning a car impossible or unattractive.

    nowadays you have to pay 1.90€ a litre of gas and rent a parking space (the ones that used to be free get converted to charging stations for BEVs or are only for people who live near it)

    getting a license has been increasing in cost for a while now, and we're at the point where it's up to 5000€ (i have one already, but it's increasing the barrier of entry)

    modifying the cars is also basically illegal, i won't get into it here though. the comment is long enough.

    additionally, the only political party that's worth voting (in my opinion) is increasingly making cars the national enemy and is trying to introduce a speed limit on the autobahn.

    so the frequent occurence is basically incompetent politicians fucking over the consumer, giving right-wingers even more fuel.

  • YouTube’s ad blocker crackdown now includes third-party apps
  • yup, noticed that revanced wasn't working a week ago.

    went into revanced manager, patched the recommended version, installed gmscore, done.

    suck it youtube, i'm not paying a subscription to watch low effort vtuber edits.

  • Do you install linux on old laptops?
  • everything that isn't my main machine runs linux. my old laptop from 10 years ago, a PC made of my old rig's parts i use as a NAS and jellyfin server, and i almost got my brother to install linux on his thinkpad.

  • Whoops
  • pozidriv is pretty cool, but annoying to use since people confuse it with phillips all the time so you end up with a lot of stripped screws.

    torx is the way to go. their sizing is odd, but it transfers torque well and is wear-resistant.

  • Microsoft starts testing ads in the Windows 11 Start menu
  • they really are trying to fuck themselves over, aren't they?

    i'm gonna switch as soon as game devs realize linux needs anticheat support.

    and i know a lot of people who don't care what operating system they run as long as they can use their web browser on it.

  • HELP! Jellyfin docker trying to use a nonexistent IP adress

    hey guys,

    i have an old pc running truenas scale and a jellyfin app/docker at home. And i have recently replaced my router. Due to this, the IP adress of my truenass install changed, and i’m fine with that. But the Jellyfin docker tries to start up, but there’s only a couple lines in the shell:

    „WARNING: Your user does not have sudo privileges so /usr/local/bin/k3s command will run on your behalf. This might cause permission issues.

    Error from server: error dialing backend: x509: certificate is valid for 127.0.0.1, 0.0.0.0, 192.168.50.9, not 192.168.178.38“

    the second line is what really concerns me. It seems that jellyfin is trying to use its old IP adress, but Truenas is telling it it can’t. I cannot interact with the docker through truenas’ shell and i am by no means an expert on linux-based stuff.

    Is there a way to point it to its new IP adress, or am i better off making a new jellyfin install. I’d like to avoid the latter, because last time it took at least 5 hours to et it up and scann all of the files.

    if you have a community that this post would fit better in, feel free to tell me.

    Thanks for your help in advance!

    Build a Thinkcentre or try to fiddle with VMs?

    Hi,

    i've been running a Truenas server for a while now. i currently have my totally legally aquired movie saved on there and jellyfin to stream them.

    but the one complaint is: i can't torrent without my Workstation pc running, because its running qbittorrent and uploading it through SMB.

    is there any way to install a torrent program on the server and remote control it via my PC? Ideally with magnet link support?

    i would imagine it being done via a VM and connecting it to the server via SMB or FTP as well

    my electronics engineer brain also had the idea to buy a passively cooled thinkcentre for 50€ on ebay and just keep it running inside my office 24/7.

    any help is appreciated!

    Gonna build a PC for a colleague, are there any obvious errors in here?

    The list of components i've compiled is as follows:

    -A corsair 4000D airflow case -Ryzen 5 3600 (might be a slight bottleneck, but i have a 3900X, which is basically the same but double the cores and it barely gets any load during gaming) -BeQuiet Pure Rock 2 cooler -Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 2x8gb 3600mhz -BeQuiet System Power 9 CM 600W -ASUS Prime B550-M A -3060 TI, manufacturer doesn't really matter -2TB M.2 PCIe 4.0 SSD (haven't decided on a manufacturer yet, but likely to be crucial, corsair or WD)

    for context, she's going to be using a 1440p 144hz monitor and she's planning to play games like Warzone or some of the newer CoD games

    i have built multiple PCs roughly in this region of performance before, and they've run great so far.

    appreciate any suggestions!

    A few Questions about reverse proxies and running your own Jellyfin server

    First things first, the setup is currently up and running. but i would like to modify it to use a reverse proxy through my personal domain.

    Currently, i'm using an old pc with Truenas and a jail with jellyfin in it. i'm connecting to it with the free Fritz!Box VPN service.

    but that's stupid and slow. so i've bought a domain at godaddy.com. but i don't understand the principle of whatever is managing the domain knowing the public IP-adress of my server. i've heard of Caddy, but it's also running locally, so i don't understand how i connect the pc to the domain.

    if anyone could simplify this down for me, it'd be very helpful.
