Fair points. Thanks for the lesson. TIL a lot.

Man, I really appreciate so many good folks giving info and not flaming each other. This is a great community.

I know it’s not the same but quick connect works well. Why not log in that way using a six digit code?

Good bot.

This is the same thing as posting on a forum a question, then saying never mind I figured it out WITHOUT STATING THE ANSWER! When googling shit and coming across this back in the day I would get more mad at those than my issue.

Fair point on all the comments. I guess I was thinking of a cubical office.

I just can’t imagine anyone playing potentially NSFW games for the first time in an office environment. Then again I guess that may be why they are revamping the system.

Who the fuck is playing Steam games at work?

Okay, I guess it’s PC then.

?

I must know as much as I thought.

I thought they owned Android. Is that not true?

Pinephone and other options are looking really good right now.

I am sitting here going “WTF is this Doc talking about, it was a Bluesky post.”

Then i saw the one and only comment regarding servers.

Thanks for the extra info. I actually hadn’t considered the Wayland stuff.

I will never understand why it’s better to emulate windows to play a game on Linux instead of just using the Linux version.

If the Linux version is 1.01 and the windows one is 2.5 I get it but normally that’s not the case with GOG.

I really wish MS would have put these people in charge of shit. - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFQWc79TYcU

Absolutely true, unfortunately for me I usually purchase games later in their lifespan after most bugs are worked out. It’s not like it goes F2P a year after I purchase but I guess I am just complaining.

If more people get to play it and the game is given new life it’s a good thing.

I get free to play, however I am getting frustrated when I purchase a game and then it goes free to play.

Similar to the others although I have messed with Ubuntu, CentOS, Fedora, and even a few others for like a day or two each.

At the moment I am using Fedora. My drives are raided and my main storage has all the data and the docker config directory’s.

Using docker for everything, watchtower for updates, and pertained to manage the containers with a gui. All the containers are directed to /mnt/drive/allMyData. In there is my data folders. Shows, movies, plex configs for recording over the air, ebooks, documents, etc.

Mainly I set it up this way so I can easily change distros if I wanted to and have all my services back up in an hour or so.

I started a text file that contains the command lines I have used to start all of my docker containers. This way if I need to I reference it and use the exact same commands mapped volumes to the same folders. Now I am back up and running in a few clicks. No need to backup the container if all the data in it is setup in folders in my main data directory.

However I am running a separate hardware raid setup prior to os. This way all my data stays safe as a separate volume.

Ahh, well I have found the Jellyfin clients to be less than perfect on appleTV. You may want to try another endpoint client if you don’t want to try another server side software.

Since you are against using plex even with using it only locally I would suggest you look into the Jellyfin clients support. Specifically look at each client device documentation and take a look at what audio and video codex they natively support. If there is one they both support then I suggest you do some testing and stream a movie or show that is encoded with that specific format. This will let you know if it will work across both clients whether it’s a stream issue hardware issue or Wi-Fi issue.

This will prevent transcoding that can cause audio sync issues.

Edit - if that works then I suggest you convert you library to that format.

You totally get it and sharing without paying. I encourage you to take a look at it. Super easy to setup with docker and a front end proxy.

I specifically use Vaultwarden. Great for syncing and sharing across family
