    Looks great!

    Small question, is it possible to log a specific journey? For example in Denmark you are required to keep a precise log of your driving if you want to get a tax rebate, so if you could log a specific journey and save it for later for tax documentation, that would be great.



  • I kinda liked posting some random funny snippets of TV shows and movies on the forbidden Lemmy. Maybe I should take that up again now that Cliparr can cut down most of the time it’ll take.

    Only problem is that I still need the communities that would benefit from such submissions. On Reddit this was mostly on a fan sub for the given TV show, but Lemmy isn’t big enough for that (at least I think so).


  • 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.






  • The SSDs are definitely weirder than they are spinny but otherwise it depends. A 7200RPM weird spinny thing is for example more spinny than a 5400RPM but if you take 3 of the 5400RPM in a RAID, then the spinnines is aggregated, making it more spinny than a 7200RPM. But in doing so, you are multiplying the weirdiness, making it exponentially more weird than a single 7200RPM weird spinny thing. This has to do with how the weirdiness particles flow between the spinny things to make sure that you’ll always be able to recover the weirdiness of one of the spinny things from the other spinny things in case of an untimely demise.


    • NAS: A weird spinny thing where you store your data. Both over the network.
    • RAID: Multiple weird spinny things working together to recover the lost data if one of the weird spinny things dies.
    • SSD: A weird spinny thing that doesn’t spin. Currently prohibitively expensive, so can be ignored.
    • SMB: A language that computers use to share files from the weird spinny things or printers with each other.
    • ZFS: A method that your computer uses to keep track of how and where your files are on the weird spinny things.

  • It’s not important but I guess it doesn’t support auth? I’ve only got time to do a quick glance right now so I might have missed something.

    I think a lot of people’s use cases might be to integrate with other tools in their self-host stack like Authentik (could be solved by adding proxy auth if nothing exists natively) and Nextcloud or other filesharing/storing solutions.

    If there aren’t any capabilities like that then it could be food for thought for expansion. Otherwise great job! Right now it’s still an upgrade from various shady PDF tool websites where you still have to download the PDF from your server to upload and process the files.




  • I’m fully Dockerized (well, uhh… Podmanized) and I’m dual-wielding Plex and Jellyfin. Runs smoothly and both only have read to the content. All management of the media is handled by the *arr stack anyway. I even set up a volume for Plex to throw conversions into that Jellyfin can’t see. I’m currently personally using Jellyfin and I’m waiting for Jellyfin to be good enough (or Plex bad enough…) for the users I share with to switch over.

    I can definitely recommend that setup.
