You can either set a DHCP reservation in your router, or manually set the IP on the device.

When I say private IP, I’m referring to the internal IP e.g 192.168.1.X

Means internally I just go to the domain without having to remember the IP I set.

I don’t even bother with the internal DNS server. I just set my A records in Cloudflare to point to the private IPs

How come not proton? Did they get caught with their hands in the cookie jar traffic logs?

Who said it was better? It’s just my favourite.

Like my favourite shirt, it’s no better than the others, but it brings me a little joy :)

• on a serious note though, thank you for sharing your two examples - I didn’t know they existed.

Also my favourite way to push a core to 100% CPU

yes > /dev/null

🎵with his song…

You can spin the pinhole up in a docker image and have it run as a secondary DNS server. The rest of your network can use the existing DNS and only point the TV at the pi. If you sit down to watch something and it requires tweaking, just flick back to regular DNS :)

For those (like me) who bought a TCL tv at a stupidly cheap price on Black Friday, you have options.

• buy an AppleTV (even second hand) and don’t connect the tv to the internet. You won’t see any adverts on your Home Screen and be done with all this bullshit. What’s that? What’s the point in buying a £200 TV if you need to buy a £150 accessory? I hear you, read on…
• if you’re broke like me, you can disable the stock launcher with adb and install projectivy launcher. I needed to use some software called launcher manager from xdaforums to replace the stock launcher. I also used adb to uninstall the pre-installed apps I had no intention of using.

Hopefully there are enough key words in there for you to google / research what you need to get going. Good luck!

Excuse me, where do I fill out the form to have the first $30,696 of my salary processed as non taxable benefit? Please and thank you

Your advice is sound, my ability to focus on such a task however… lol

Same idea as Jellyfin / Plex. Self hosted media server. Plex handles ssl certs for you, Emby doesn’t have an automatic process so I’m having to manually replace it every 90 days

A friend of mine helped me set up a Star Trek automation where the lights turn on and a Star Trek LCARS video plays on my TV.

Went to demo it only to discover he’d changed the link to a rickroll. I love that trolling bastard

I’m also having to manually cert every 3 months for my emby instance. It’s a minor inconvenience, but I’m definitely tempted to just buy a yearly.

See!!! This is why communism is bad!! Since you’ve started turning everything to the left, it’s all come apart!!

Here’s a video detailing the process for those interested 😀

WW1 - they hit some dude in a car and everybody was pissed.

WW2 - everybody was sick of paying for WW1

Easy!

Nothing personal, my lack of understanding is what made me giggle :)

The phrase “pre-melted” is making me chuckle. If it’s pre-melted, surely it’s frozen? If it’s frozen, isn’t that just ice?

Probably just as difficult as justifying the “AI” component of this light: https://amzn.eu/d/08yAcZpp

I had to do a presentation for work a few weeks ago. I asked co-pilot to generate me an outline for a presentation on the topic.

It spat out a heading and a few sections with details on each. It was generic enough, but it gave me the structure I needed to get started.

I didn’t dare ask it for anything factual.

Worked a treat.
