The community is also hosted on lemm.ee which will shutdown, you’ll have to recreate the community on another instance.
I think piefed has a community migration feature but I have no experience with it.

I use this one:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.orrs.deliveries

It can usually get the status of most courriers unless they’re actively hostile against API/scraping.
Worst case you can still track status manually, or open the webpage.
It doesn’t track payment, but I don’t usually have a tracking number before paying.
I think you could technically add your own custom status entry.
I keep them as active until shipped and verified after which I mark them as completed.

Works well enough for my needs.

Sorry, I couldn’t find any contact info on https://lazysoci.al/ and I don’t think I have them in any matrix room.

You can use an adapter just fine.
Or use a 5.5" drive caddy, that’s just a little drawer that slides in and out.
Real question is it you have enough SATA connectors available.

During account deletion you can check the content removal box which will nuke everything in your account, there is no undo.

That’s probably your app’s UI being more confusing than it needs to.
Your account is on lemmy.world (at least the one you posted this from).
You can just open it in a browser and go to https://lemmy.world/
I find the web version less confusing than most client apps.

You can change your display name, but not the username.
Then again, you can always just make a new account and transfer your subscriptions and settings (but not your post/comment history).

Warrantied drives still fail, they just happen to ship you a replacement.

Commercial drive trashing solutions are basically a smaller, fancier version of the mechanism in a log splitter.
You could probably rig a sketchy drive wedge/bending thing with a pump jack rather easily.
Wear PPE.

The odds of someone taking a failed drive and transplanting the platters to a working drive is pretty low to begin with.

Me? I don’t have tons of drives to destroy, so I just unscrew the thing, get the platters out and smash those.

Disclaimer:My experience on this is from 10+ years ago on HTC’s Legend, Moto’s Droid 3, and Samsung’d S5.
Back in the day, I’d switch between custom ROMs and stock by simply booting into TWRP (or it’s predecessor which name’s I forgot, probably CWM or Philz) and restoring a backup.
Switching between backups was easy enough, unrooting/unhacking the locked bootloader not so much.
Obviously, anything you did inbetween said backups was gone for non cloud based apps.

I imagine if you have a phone with a proper bootloader unlock it’s likely easier than one which needed to bootstrap itself using kexec or other shenanigans.

Your examples seem vaguely related to home automation, so maybe they’re already in Home Assistant.
https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/

It has a bunch of sensors and media related integrations. You can also add custom REST API queries.

For me, Plex would often end up having audio drift lag and it was annoying as fuck. It’d start fine, then the lag would gradually increase until you changed encoding back and forth, then gradually increase again.
Jellyfin just works.
That was enough to get me to switch and not look back. I’m also rid of the bullshit plex login that I never cared for, and also of their push for whatever “recommended” stuff is supposed to be about.

Make sure you test this from outside your network and not simply by using the public IP, but from inside your LAN. Odds are your ISP modem doesn’t support NAT loopback (also known as NAT hairpin).

Your own user might have root, but the ansibke user probably isn’t.
You can enable ansible privilege escalation by adding become: true in your yaml file.

It is likely safer in the long run to set it for a specific task than globally.

Lemmy does exponential backoff with something like this:
retry_in = min(1.25^retry_count, 24*3600)
Basically, the timer for the next retry will grow exponentially until it reaches 1 day, then it continues to retry every day.

By that time, about 5 days will have gone by going through the previous retry failures.

If will eventually give up and mark as dead but I don’t remember the threshold for that.

Speaking from experience?
That seems rough.

That was supposed to be ‘address’ as in email address, not sure how autocorrect figured that one.

Yes and no… say if you gave the email address [email protected] when signin up and you start receiving garbage on it, you just delete the alias and move on.
The trick is that you can have several aliases go into the same inbox so you only have to check one place, but each thing is given its own IP making it easier to identify and filter culprits.
