My old workplace had the same’ish. The developer team who owned the service had rights to disable branch protection. Disabling this would create alerts to the manager but allowed an on-call developer to make an emergency bug fix at 2am and get a postmortem review the next day.

are not stupid and have a long history of making stable gains on their investments, as they should.

Except the Danish government-mandated pension fund ATP that everyone is forced to contribute to. If you want to hit jackpot just invest opposite of what ATP is investing.

Still flowing into the industry? Isn’t it circular investment? As far as I understand it’s very reminiscent of a Ponzi-scheme where an investment in A is paid by a loan guaranteed by an investment in B, which again is money gained by hardware purchases in C which is the company that invested in A.

Then find the bottle of green stuff.

I don’t know what workplace you’re at, but mine isn’t fancy enough for absinthe.

You should be able to use something like Flirc if you want to use a TV remote to control your mini PC.

The OSMC remote would probably also work. It also comes with an RF receiver (doesn’t use IR). I got an OSMC box with accompanying remote and I’m very happy. If need be I can plug it into one of my non OSMC devices and test it out with a specific media app.

I got a Philips TV and just never connected it to the internet. Only ad I see is the ugly Netflix button on my remote, rest is handled by OSMC.

I think most TVs can do this. I’ve even discovered that Samsung that’s notorious for forcing you to go through a network setup wizard can be bypassed just by pressing the right arrow button instead of selecting a WiFi. At least all the Samsung TVs from my old workplace had this bypass.

How recent is that? Going after neurodivergents belongs to the middle ages.

Doctor Who, not Doctor Strange. The TV show from BBC.

I don’t but if current guides aren’t enough then I could look into making a write up some time next week

Well, good news then: https://features.jellyfin.org/posts/230/support-for-oidc-oauth-sso

From “planned” to “started” and ultimately “completed” can potentially take some time though.

But if you’re using Authentik like me, then I can show you how I set up an LDAP outpost for Jellyfin to communicate with while everything else uses OIDC. Still centralised auth, but while LDAP is not as good as OIDC it works great until official OIDC support.

About $3/mo. But for a lifetime deal you’re also buying the risk. If they go bankrupt, stop honoring the lifetime deal, or any variation thereof tomorrow, you’re out $750 - lifetime deals, where they exist are often heavily discounted compared to normal rates due to this. 20 years is though quite a long time. Plex is only 16 years old.

In a perfect world a company would limit the amount of lifetime deals available and only have them in the beginning to get some quick cash allowing them to scale. I don’t think Plex is running a very good business, which also devalues the lifetime deal.

who prefer a subscription for a tracker

You’re in the wrong tracker if that is the case. No trustworthy tracker has a subscription.

Jellyfin versions prior to 10.7.1

This was fixed 5 years ago: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/releases/tag/v10.7.1

The data for me is shared read-only to the Jellyfin container, so that’s not a problem.

Can you explain more about that vulnerability? It would necessitate a pretty serious privilege escalation to be possible.

Germany seems fine on some level, at least you don’t have a wannabe dictator. What concerns me is that the cold war border is still very visible on political maps.

Use a reverse proxy and hook a domain up to it. Then you just say to grandma “media is now at jellyfin.mydomain.com and not app.plex.tv”

The thing that Plex does for you is reverse proxying so you don’t have to. You can set that up for Jellyfin yourself.

You could also set up a reverse proxy in front of your Jellyfin and hook a domain up to it. That way you don’t have to worry about the client at all.

LDAP works fine, OIDC not so much, only the web client would work.

There are still talks around making OIDC a first class citizen and IIRC it is planned as per the feature page but I guess the major core upgrade around the DB took a lot of attention the last 6-12 months.

But in the meantime I’ve just spun up an LDAP outpost for my Authentik that my Jellyfin connects to. It breaks MFA but otherwise it works. It may be a bit confusing for users that they log in at jellyfin.site.com but anything user-related like updating password is at authentik.site.com and requires an extra login.

I nicked myself a full PC upgrade in between pandemic and AI and couldn’t have been prouder about my timing. I was rocking a GTX 670 during the crypto craze just waiting for prices to normalise. Felt like I went from the stone age to the space age when I got my 7800xt.

My primary server though… That one was due for an upgrade this spring. It was my old gaming PC, so it has seen better days.
