I hate to disappoint you, but there are plenty of idiots that would lap this up.

We're using Emby set up on a container with GPU passthrough. Used to be on a Synology, but that absolutely sucked for transcoding and now just hosts the library.

Does the job and does it well with a little extra setup for subtitles (extensions, API keys etc). Subs are a must as I can barely hear shit.

Apps work well, as does the web interface. Sometimes struggles with the highest quality files (hardware limitations rather than software), but 1080p is fine for our use.

Haven't needed to look into anything else, no dealbreakers yet.

Turned them off, so no.

Given we don't see much in the way of existential threats here, I figure that anything genuinely big enough to warrant one is something I'd rather not see coming.

Or a test. Or a fault. Or a nothingburger.

About average for a flag shagger I suppose.

Rclone is great for data wrangling. Takes only a little learning for a lot of future convenience/automation down the line.

evs.ee at least offers ISO standards at a not extortionate price:

The pdfs do have some DRM on them and they will come watermarked with the buyer details though. The former is easy to get around - I used foxit reader and a pdf 'printer' to make a copy that opens nicely in anything.

Why pick shit out of your cereal, when you can just get the other brand that doesn't have shit in it?

At least they've zapped the acceptable ads out of it :)

Ironfox is my current pref for mobile, backed by uBO & a VPN to a box running pfsense.

ABP hasn't been relevant for years, because they started on "acceptable ads" back in 2011.

Anyone with sense has long since moved on.

Odd one. Accessible using an app, not on browser though.

Will need an alternative if you need to port forward, but for general use you can't fault them

 

So that's why a 2 systems were getting crappy speeds. Yes, 2. It had been used only to split a single drop from another switch between two systems.

New drop, happy clients.

Some stuff here is museum material.

 

See avatar for the goofy creature depicted :)

 

Every time, without fail. This one is a gilet and she's a nester. Very much enjoying burying herself through the holes.
