Even 2 isn’t difficult. If they can set a price on the currency itself then they can set it on each item trivially.

Ah okay. When I used Plex it had hardware acceleration. But I’d been a Plex Pass lifetime pass user for years so forgot the distinction between that and non pass. Thanks

no local hardware accel

What do you mean by this?

If you want free, there are alternatives. Plex is a business, with employees. Plex pass is their business model.

I think locking remote play is entirely enshitification however, but I get it. Plex model has them provide authentication and relay services. They are now trying to push their own streaming services which I expect is a real money sink.

Human psyche is susceptible to manipulation.

“predatory”. You are really stretching it. A full screen message is displayed on first launch explaining the options.

This is more about familiarity than difference in ease of use. I’ve used both, they are both super easy.

Same! Clever guy, well articulated.

If you are the only user then use seafile pro. It’s free for up to 3 users.

Elon is so uncoordinated, socially awkward. I wouldn’t be surprised if he didn’t imagine what this would look like.

On the other hand he is also a cunt so likely knew exactly what he was doing.

The send to email function doesn’t work with the New Outlook. You could switch back to Outlook classic.

I recently decommissioned my old poweredge T620. Beast of a thing, 5U heavy af. It had 8x10T drives and was the primary media server.

Now that it is replaced I bought 2x Synology RS822+ and filled them with the old disks. Using SHR2. They are mixed brands bought at different times so I’ve made sure each NAS has a mix of disks.

Lowest is 33k hours, highest is 83k.

I read that all the popular chat services provide similar information to law enforcement agencies. I don’t think telegram is special in this regard.

Isn’t your use case exactly what Ceph is for?

What did you post?

The mobile apps need to align themselves with Lemmy.

The film/TV industry splitting into 5+ services wasn’t a good thing. Advocating for the same system for music could be good for artists but would suck for consumers.

In 2010 I self hosted a Xen hypervisor and used it for everything I could. It was fun!

I had a drive failure in my main raid 5 array so bought a new disk. When it came to swap it out, I pulled the wrong disk.

It was hardware raid using an Adaptec card and the card threw the raid out and refused to bring it together again. I couldn’t afford recovery. I remember I just sat there, dumb founded, in disbelief. I went through all the stages of grief.

I was in the middle of a migration from OVH to Hetzner and it occurred at a time where I had yet to reconfigure remote backups.

I lost all my photos of our first child. Luckily some of them were digitised from developed physical media which we still had. But a lot was lost.

This was my lesson.

I now have veeam, proxmox backup server, backuppc and Borg. Backups are hosted in 2 online locations and a separate physical server elsewhere in the house.

Backups are super, SUPER important. I’ve lost count how many times I’ve logged into backuppc to restore a file or folder because I did a silly. And it’s always reassuring how easy it is to restore.

I like their ColorVu night vision technology so was going to buy a bunch of these for my next home.

Same as what I have done here, I put the cameras in their own isolated VLAN with no internet and they only rule is to allow the NVR to access those cameras streams.
