  • Similar to the others although I have messed with Ubuntu, CentOS, Fedora, and even a few others for like a day or two each.

    At the moment I am using Fedora. My drives are raided and my main storage has all the data and the docker config directory’s.

    Using docker for everything, watchtower for updates, and pertained to manage the containers with a gui. All the containers are directed to /mnt/drive/allMyData. In there is my data folders. Shows, movies, plex configs for recording over the air, ebooks, documents, etc.

    Mainly I set it up this way so I can easily change distros if I wanted to and have all my services back up in an hour or so.

    I started a text file that contains the command lines I have used to start all of my docker containers. This way if I need to I reference it and use the exact same commands mapped volumes to the same folders. Now I am back up and running in a few clicks. No need to backup the container if all the data in it is setup in folders in my main data directory.

    However I am running a separate hardware raid setup prior to os. This way all my data stays safe as a separate volume.




  • Since you are against using plex even with using it only locally I would suggest you look into the Jellyfin clients support. Specifically look at each client device documentation and take a look at what audio and video codex they natively support. If there is one they both support then I suggest you do some testing and stream a movie or show that is encoded with that specific format. This will let you know if it will work across both clients whether it’s a stream issue hardware issue or Wi-Fi issue.

    This will prevent transcoding that can cause audio sync issues.

    Edit - if that works then I suggest you convert you library to that format.











  • Not sure if the exact item you are looking for as I am unfamiliar with chicken adobo.

    However if it has anything to do with adobo sauce then I can’t recommend pork Al pastor enough.

    First result from a google but there are plenty that work. https://heygrillhey.com/smoked-al-pastor/

    It’s tacos instead of a dish but still is amazing and you can crock pot it if need be instead of smoking it on the grill.

    Mind if I ask what chicken adobo recipe you are following so I have a better understanding of what you’re looking for. (Also for a fully selfish reason of trying what you are talking about)




  • Good point. Sorry I wasn’t clear. I only meant that they couldn’t branch out and develop other games like they wanted to. Essentially I was making the same point that you are in terms of what they HAD to develop. MS it was Halo, Sony it’s destiny but in either place they did not have the option to make new IP. At least maybe not till now but that looks more like a forced dev.

    I agree with your sentiment, though that Sony is pushing them more in house.


  • I would generally agree with this statement but I think in this particular case it may be a bad thing. From what I understood of the article they are taking a portion of the Bungie dev team and spinning off to be a part of the Sony game devs. I have a feeling the manage team being taken out had been a big pushback on that.

    Bungie wanted to leave Microsoft because they wanted to do new things and not just Halo. Unfortunately it turned out activation screwed them in terms of their development and mad then cut 70% of the D1 story with less than a year to release.

    After all that they are eventually bought by Sony that now does almost the same thing MS was doing to them.

    Don’t get me wrong, I am glad it’s more managers and corporate office than devs but I have a bad feeling that this is just the start of a bad turn of events for them.
