is this on their git or fdroid by chance?

can report UEFI installs of PopOS and Mint were recently borked by a Win11 update.

It does send a “your safety number has been updated with user” message. But not as an automated message. Only when a new signal thread is started.

Haven’t tried when only logged in to desktop and changing devices / numbers so I can’t speak to that.

I often figure it’s google bias and / or people trying to impose their threat models on other people.

Been using proton for quite a while with a few custom domains and am impressed with the service to price of their offerings.

We can one off use cases with any vendor, but at the end of the day, they offer a more secure out of the box experience than just about any other platform out there. If someone is doing illicit shit and gets popped, it’s not on the service provider to provide air cover for them. Improve your opsec or self host.

Big concern with your number being recycled and a new user receiving the signal activation key on that number.

The barrier to entry is pretty low anymore for Linux. There’s some really helpful communities here as well. I’ve ran various versions as secondary OS’es since the early 00’s and can pretty confidentially say, its never been easier.

PopOS, Mint and even Ubuntu are super easy to get up and running and Proton makes gaming a breeze like never before.

You’ve got around 9 months left on Win10 supportability. Then it will move in to LTS channels only. It was incredibly well adopted so we have to believe any open vulnerabilities will be targeted quickly and relentlessly. Sadly, we will be in a 11 only world by this time next year.

Sweet. Now do the BioShock “Remasters”.

Buying stock is a risk. If you don’t know what you’re buying, don’t be surprised when it fails.

I’m exhausted with investors thinking they aren’t subject to risk. Fuck em all.

I may see how easy that is to set up. I noted above though, I’ve been learning the *arr stack piece by piece. And it never seems to quite work the way that I’m expecting it to so doing local recodes ends up being a more viable solution for me since I have a shit ton of processing power and limited time to read through things like trashes guide. Thank you for the suggestion though. Maybe if I get some time in the coming month to dig into my settings I’ll give that a shot. It would be cool to automate the recovery process that way.

Cheers.

I have a full mirror. If both arrays fail, I figure I have bigger problems and redownlod would be low on the list.

I’m not sure redownloading would save any time.

I’d imagine there’s a way to set that up with the *arrs but my personal path of less resistance is to just recode what I got rather than figure a process to redownlod out. There’s is more resources than time at my disposal currently.

I keep everything in a 10u rack in my garage so it doesn’t bother us much. That said, when it was in my office being configured, it was quieter than my desktop running a 5900x and 3080.

By design, NUC’s are super quiet and the jbods I’m using are cooled with 2 140mm fans running at about 50% most of the time.

Worth noting, I’ve been a metal fan and musician most of my life so my sensitivity isn’t very high compared to a lot of others.

Awesome. Thanks for the info. I have been running Plex for years and started the switch to Jellyfin last year. Have a container running Emby but haven’t put any work in to configuring or much yet.

Same situation with Tdarr. Threw together a quick container and got caught up in a billion other projects. I have an old 3600x / 1080ti system I’ll likely use as a transcoding node. Just need to go over the docs and figure out how to setup input / output paths.

Overall it’s (currently) a couple jbods plugged in to a NUC. Total draw is at 81W currently. That’s based off of a quick remote check on my UPS.

That’s a Ubiquiti Dream Machine Pro, Modem, Ubiquiti U7 Pro, 2 - 6 disc jbods running Seagate exos 20tb, and the NUC.

There’s a secondary drive array but it only powers on once a week for a few hours to run backups/differentials. Even under that load I don’t really spike above 100W.

Compared to the draw my old full rack with a couple loaded up r210’s has, this is incredibly efficient.

The majority of my stack as well as vehicles run off renewables / solar. So it’s hard to tell. May seem like some massive library but it has been accumulated over 25 or so years and is composed of a shit ton of physical rips from a pretty extensive library of everything from VHS and vinyl to uhd…

What’s your process for recoding? I’m nearing 120tb used space and would like to re-encode some of the stuff my *arr stack grabbed before I got my profiles tuned in.

I am still so incredibly salty that my quest 1 is a paperweight because of this requirement.

It did not exist when I purchased the product. Full Stop.

When they introduced to that requirement with the quest 2 you were able to use the quest one without it with no issue. Sometime last year we tried to hook our quest one up to Steam Link and were met with a Meta Account requirement. There was no way within the UI to get around it.

In a moment of frustration, wanting to play some Beat Saber with the family, I went ahead and started the process of making a meta account only to be stopped several times along the way by various privacy layers on our network. It was insane. My PiHole about caught fire.

30 minutes in I gave up and dug out the Vive Cosmos and all 20 wires it needed. So disappointed meta is the only wireless headse with decent battery life. They ruined VR adoption for me.

The 8bit do ultimates are currently my favorite controller of all time. Own several wired and wireless models (at least 1 of each version).

If you have $70 (less on pretty frequent sales) for the ultimate with Hall Sticks, I can’t recommend it enough. I reach for these over the Xbox Elite, Dual Sense Edge and Razers I used previously.

Simply a fantastic controller. And they work great with the 2.4ghz dongle or just via Bluetooth with the Steam Deck.

I am so, so close to doing the same. Still have a small partition carved out for CoD and Windows. I just find myself booting in to it less and less.

Thank goodness MicroVision seems to be keen on continuing to flog that dead horse with a Warzone focus, means I can finally be free.
