My server pc is just my old computer parts. Ryzen 3 2200G with with 6Gb of RAM. It gets the job done!

No clue, but you can selfhost it! So even if you don't like the official Revolt instance, you can spin up your own for you and your friends and not worry about it!

It's not a full replacement for Discord, but it's working towards that. If you just want a basic server for yourself and friends with emotes and voice chats, Revolt works. If you want polls, events, threads, forums, etc., it can't replace your setup. I think the goal is to be a full Discord replacement in the future, but it's still a work in progress (such is often the case with FOSS software maintained by hobbyists).

I use Docker for my setup and mistakenly had my qBittorrent download folder and my *arr media folders mounted as /downloads and /movies as opposed to /arr/downloads and /arr/movies

The *arr programs running inside their containers don't know that the two folders are actually on the same drive because it sees them as two separate mount points. Once I changed my *arr containers to mount my directories correctly, the hard linking worked as expected instead of copying files over. I then ran fclones and recovered over 700 GB of storage from deduplication.

I had a few metadata issues with Jellyfin until I changed the primary metadata source to be the same as what Radarr/Sonarr use so they all the file names match up and I've had no issues since.

I also don't have a notable issues with subtitles in Jellyfin, but maybe your requirements have more friction. Have you tried the (iirc included by default) Jellyfin plugin to automatically download subtitles for your stuff? Or the *arr program that handles subtitles (I forget its name)?

A lot of what this administration will do is going to be illegal and nonsensical and dumb, but they will do so much of it that it will be impossible to effectively push back against it all. If you hear something that you care about, pick that and keep up with it. Don't get overwhelmed by the torrent of stuff happening over the next four years.

This is especially true in the current media environment, where there's so much noise that it's really difficult to break in and sort through what's true and what's false and what's missing context and what's misleading and what's technically true but there are other factors that change how it plays out in reality, etc.

It takes a lot of energy to keep up with it all, so pick something you care about and pay attention to developments about that. Maybe that's trans rights, immigrant rights, democratic institutions, economics, geopolitics, military industrial complex, whatever. You won't be able to effectively care about it all, so pick one and focus on that.

This is my current mobile wallpaper and this is my current desktop wallpaper! Although this reminds me that it's about time to pick a new wallpaper for my desktop since it's been a few months.

Finally got around to watching Mars Express (2023). I think the trailer makes it seem more action packed than it was, but it still had some action and was certainly entertaining. I'm not fully sure how I feel about it yet but I'm definitely going to rewatch it again in the future. It draws out similar feelings to when I watched Pantheon (2022).

I also recently finished Kite Man: Hell Yeah! (2024) and started Drifting Dragons (2020). I enjoyed Kite Man (spinoff show from Harley Quinn (2019), so if you like that you'll probably like this too). I'm only a few episodes into Drifting Dragons and while I plan on finishing it, it's not as up my alley as I had hoped.

How stable/reliable is the income? Are you ever worried about having a bad month where making rent is tight?

For anyone wondering why a new law would target reusable bags as well, the phrasing of the old law basically encouraged stores to replace single use plastic bags with reusable plastic bags. Reusable bags use more plastic so they're sturdier and last longer, but they were treated as single use bags anyways so functionally we were just producing and subsequently wasting more plastic.

I haven't read this new law but hopefully it encourages or requires actually using paper bags or cardboard boxes or something if you don't have your own reusable bag. It would be a shame if it just kicks the can down the road again and people buy reusable bags in the checkout aisle that they throw away when they get home instead of keeping in the car.
