Yes it’s already enabled, which is how I assume it’s working in Plex. Jellyfin isn’t even deciding to transcode to hevc, so it seems like more of a detection thing in jellyfin since it works fine in Plex web

So I just grabbed the nightly and it looks like it’s direct playing hevc in Plex. Jellyfin still says codec not supported for me, not sure if I have any settings wrong or of they need to change the auto detect in jellyfin.

I don’t really have a recommendation atm, I used to use mullvad but for torrenting I feel like the lack of port forwarding (once they removed that feature) was hurting my ability to seed so I switched to proton. I also recently added Usenet into my mix and since many providers bundle a VPN subscription - and mine in particular supposedly also supports port forwarding (usenetdirect bundles a ghost path VPN subscription), I’m gonna try to get it to work with that so I don’t have to pay for a VPN separately but I haven’t tried it yet.

Sounds like their strategy is to force US companies to block access to piracy sites.

I already run my torrent client through a non-US VPN so this can literally be bypassed by adding this to my prowlarr docker compose:

network_mode: service:gluetun

No problem! You can tell I went deep down the rabbithole a while back lol - I had to rip my dad’s CD collection and assure him that what came out of the toslink to his DAC was identical coming from a FLAC as would come from a CD player with optical out.

I’m pretty sure if you rip CDs directly to FLAC, it’s a perfect copy assuming you’re using good software. PCM isn’t lossy or lossless because it’s not a compressed format, it’s an uncompressed bitstream. Think of it like the original data. If it was burned to a CD as digital MP3 data and then ripped that to FLAC, then yes you’d be going from lossy compressed to lossless, which would hide the fact that quality was lost when it went to MP3 in the first place.

Just as an example, you can rip a CD directly to FLAC (you should also find and use the correct sample offset for your CD drive), rip the cue sheet for track alignment, then burn the FLAC back to a new CD using the cuesheet (and the correct write offset configuration), and you’ll get a CD with the exact bit for bit pattern of “pits” burned into the data layer.

You can then rip both CDs to a raw uncompressed wav file (wav is basically just a container for PCM data) and then you’ll be able to MD5sum both wav files and see that they are identical.

This is how I test my FLAC rips to make sure I’m preserving everything. This is also how CD checksum databases (like CDDB) work - people across the globe can rip to wav or flac and because it’s the same master of the CD, they’ll get identical checksums, and even after converting the PCM/wav into a flac you are still able to checksum and verify it’s identical bit for bit.

It was waitlist for a while, not sure if it still is but I got my welcome email like a week later.

I interpreted the meme as sarcastic vindication not genuine surprise.

Partially yes, the tricky thing is that when using network_mode: "service:tailscale" (presumably on the caddy container since that’s what needs to receive traffic from the tailscale network), you won’t be able to attach the caddy container to any networks since it’s using the tailscale network stack. This means that in order for caddy to reach your containers, you will need to add the tailscale container itself to the relevant networks. Any attached containers will be connected as well.

(Not sure if I misread the first time or if you edited but the way you say it is right, add the tailscale container to the proxy network so that caddy will also be added and can reach the containers)

Here’s the super condensed version of what matters for connecting traefik/caddy to a VPN like wireguard/tailscale.

• I left out all WG config since presumably you know how to configure tailscale
• Left out acme / letsencrypt stuff since that would be different on caddy anyway
• You may need to configure caddy to trust the tailscale tunnel IP of the machine on the other end that will be reverse proxying over the tunnel.
• Traefik I guess requires you to specify the docker network to use to reach stuff, I just put anything that should be accessible into “ingress” as you can see. I’m not sure if my setup supports using a different proxy network per app but maybe caddy allows that.

My traefik compose:

services:
  wireguard:
    container_name: wireguard
    networks:
      - ingress

  traefik:
    network_mode: "service:wireguard"
    depends_on:
      - wireguard
    command:
      - "--entryPoints.web.proxyProtocol.trustedIPs=10.13.13.1" # Trust remote tunnel IP, the WG container is 10.13.13.2
      - "--entrypoints.websecure.address=:443"
      - "--entryPoints.websecure.proxyProtocol.trustedIPs=10.13.13.1"
      - "--entrypoints.web.http.redirections.entrypoint.to=websecure"
      - "--entrypoints.web.http.redirections.entrypoint.scheme=https"
      - "--entrypoints.web.http.redirections.entrypoint.priority=100"
      - "--providers.docker.exposedByDefault=false"
      - "--providers.docker.network=ingress"

networks:
  ingress:
    external: true

And then in a service’s docker-compose:

services:
  ui:
    image: myapp
    read_only: true
    restart: always
    labels:
      - "traefik.enable=true"
      - "traefik.http.routers.myapp.rule=Host(`xxxx.xxxx.xxxx`)"
      - "traefik.http.services.myapp.loadbalancer.server.port=80"
      - "traefik.http.routers.myapp.entrypoints=websecure"
      - "traefik.http.routers.myapp.tls.certresolver=mytlschallenge"
    networks:
      - ingress

networks:
  ingress:
    external: true

(edited to fix formatting on mobile)

I’ve done something similar but I’m not sure how helpful my example would be because I use wireguard instead of tailscale and traefik instead of caddy.

The principle is the same though, iirc I have my traefik container set to network_mode: “service:wireguard” so that the traefik container uses the wireguard container’s network stack. That way the traefik container also sees the wireguard interface and can receive traffic going to the wireguard IP. Then at the other end of the wireguard tunnel I can use haproxy to pass traffic to the wireguard IP through the tunnel and it automatically hits traefik.

Gotcha, I found that on desktop you can do “average traffic” for a day of the week and time for the whole map without putting in a destination so I picked an average Monday at 5:30:

Does anyone have a good before screenshot of the same map view / area? I want to stitch together a before shot before I share so that people not from the area can get an idea of the change and not just immediately think “oh well my small town has traffic and it looks like that so what’s the big deal”

I believe 4K is already basically there. I have a 50" 4K (2160p) that I sit 9 feet away from and based on the Nvidia PPD calculator, that makes for 168ppd, and according to that page 150ppd is around the upper limit of human vision. Apple’s “retina” displays target around 50-60ppd (varies based on assumed viewing distance), which is what most people seem to consider “average eye visual acuity”. Imo 4K / 150ppd is more than enough.

Seems Pierre has struck down the steam deck update rumor:

“There is and will be no Z2 Steam Deck. Guessing the slide was meant to say the series is meant for products like that, not announcing anything specific.”

If the battery inverter in the Anker box doesn’t pass through grid power then I think you would use an automatic transfer switch that switches between mains and battery inverter depending on which is powered. I had dreams of offsetting my homelab power with solar + battery + inverter.

If the machine doesn’t boot then you can use this to access the bios and boot a recovery environment of your choice remotely using pxeboot.

Immich has a setting that does automatic photo backup over WiFi, I use the android app as a Google photos replacement. You can choose however many folders on your phone as you want (I just do camera roll) and enable only backup over WiFi and it backs up all the photos in original quality. I self-host the server on my Synology with a reverse proxy (can’t forward ports at my current place due to cgnat) so I can access it from anywhere.

I believe the app is cross platform so the iPhone version should be identical to the android one.

Woah federation would be huge!

Someday I would love to be able to share and receive shared photos / albums to and from users on different servers. Especially if it lets me sync the original files so that I can keep a copy in case their server goes down. It would also be neat if you could enable activitypub so that your account could show up as a fediverse user that people can follow for public or approved follower only posts, pixelfed compatibility would be super cool.

All cows are beautiful

Seconding immich - I host it for my family which makes sharing vacation photos easy since they all have accounts on my instance that can be shared to / from.
