Oh, HW works on Plex just fine.

Both are docker containers. It can detect the card, but ffmpeg crashes with an error and that’s as far as I got.

I haven’t given up, life just got busy for a bit as often happens.

I have both. Plex for family and Jellyfin for me. I still don’t have hardware transcoding working (probably a permission thing. It’s always permissions) and haven’t had much time to tinker this year. Plex just… worked.

I can use Jellyfin without transcoding, but only one or two users at a time is all my CPU can handle.

One concern, yes. Others such as parking heads. Don’t want platters spinning down with drive heads hovering. Power spikes won’t do the circuit boards any good.

Doesn’t hurt to show servers some kindness even if it’s a laptop in a closet.

Cheap and dirty solution would be a battery backup for the drive, but there are some big concerns about the setup. Drives don’t like to go dark like that.

Doesn’t Elon do the same thing such as when SpaceX bought a fleet of Cybertrucks?

Just sounds like how the rich move wealth around to stay/look wealthy.

Haha YES! Darn autocorrect!

Uhhh… So I bribed a stray to bring her new litter over, trapped them all in my basement, got them familiar to humans for a few months, built a huge 6’ by 10’ kennel in our living room, and kept them locked away for a few more months. They just turned 1 in March.

Guess I’m a total monster. But they are great cats.

Edit: Don’t tell the judge I had them spayed/neutered!

That sounds like projection

Bracing? Looks like someone just woke up. Silicon valley chews up and spits out low income workers for decades. It is the extraction/denial of wealth to the underclass, along with other factors, that makes this area appear so prosperous.

They were in their “AI craze” frenzy with this thing called electricity. That could have been fun.

I quite literally had Google maps recommended that exact thing to me April 5th. I know, because I told a friend and we laughed at it. (Was parked)

Work smarter, not harder.

That’s a good litmus test. If asking/paying artists to train your AI destroys your business model, maybe you’re the arsehole. ;)

Those emails have warned me something was pooched in advance many times. I do find them useful.

Sad to see them go, but nice they mention an alternative.
