Ah sweet, my left-pad is coming today!

Admiral Adama was right again

VERY hands on, wouldn’t recommend it haha.

But that’s the beauty of open source. You CAN do it

I think my approach is probably the most insane one, reading this thread…

So the only thing I expose to the public internet is a homemade reverse proxy application which supports both form based and basic authentication. The only thing anonymous users have access to is the form login page. I’m on top of security updates with its dependencies and thus far I haven’t had any issues, ever. It runs in a docker container, on a VM, on Proxmox. My Jellyfin instance is in k8s.

My mum wanted to watch some stuff on my Jellyfin instance on her Chromecast With Google TV, plugged into her ancient Dumb TV. There is a Jellyfin Android TV app. I couldn’t think of a nice way to run a VPN on Android TV or on any of her (non-existent) network infra.

So instead I forked the Jellyfin Android TV app codebase. I found all the places where the API calls are made to the backend (there are multiple). I slapped in basic auth credentials. Recompiled the app. Deployed it to her Chromecast via developer mode.

Solid af so far. I haven’t updated Jellyfin since then (6 months), but when I need to, I’ll update the fork and redeploy it on her Chromecast.

Yep, still mad I missed the final episode of Season 6 of Stargate SG-1

Hytale… that’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time. Ah, started development in 2015, that’s probably why

It’s a vibe seeing solar panels cover those iconic Southern China valleys

Ah but at least those garish lights are all LEDs these days with energy usage a fraction of what it would’ve been in times gone by

I also wish to become a WEB SITE CREATOR when I grow up

Because they stopped making them!

They sucked though, the leg ends would always end up getting wet, muddy, and/or torn off

Mimicry in nature is never intentional on the conscious part of the mimic though (ok exception is maybe octopi). It evolves like that because it works. Perhaps cats are evolving to become more cute.

It’s not like they’re capable of understanding good and evil. Many creatures murder things for “fun” - it clearly serves an evolutionary purpose even if they don’t eat the kill

Looking for more of a technical manual

Depends how far you want to keep going back ….Wessex dudes talking about Russia and Ukraine like we don’t still occupy all of Mercia.

Yep, the only thing that could use a bit of Americanisation is the video settings and performance side of things

That shit still makes me angry and it’s fiction

So no change to how it was before then

Thanks! That’s crazy. Evolution has resulted in some weird shit
