  • Server to host media. Super easy to set up and can run on a Windows client. Don't even need an independent server to run it on. https://jellyfin.org/

    https://kodi.tv/ (or https://libreelec.tv/ for an OS that boots to just Kodi)

    Application to watch through Kodi https://github.com/jellyfin/jellycon

    Client to run Kodi on: MeLE PCG02 Mini PC Stick https://a.co/d/1EGnekO

    If you didn't want to install LibreELEC to the PC and just want to keep Windows, you could run Kodi in Kiosk mode and it would boot directly to it just like LibreELEC.

    I have not watched normal TV in years, let alone an ad on my TV. I spoke to my neighbors one day and figured out they were paying ~$60 a month for all their streaming services, and they're STILL getting ads...

    Stuff like this is unacceptable, and I refuse to partake in the lunacy and delusion that is modern television.

  • Russia launches "social rating" platform to determine a person’s comparative “social status”
  • Observers on social media compared the platform’s name “We” to the highly influential 1921 dystopian novel of the same name by Russian author Yevgeny Zamyatin.

    They actually couldn't choose a different name than the novel that was written specifically about this very dystopian subject? Did they use it as inspiration? Because that seems more than coincidence...

  • [Bazzite] Fedora Kinoite Duplex Printing Issue

    Hello! I use Bazzite Linux with KDE, and I'm having some issues with duplex printing on my system.

    I have a Brother HL-L2300D, and I've already installed the drivers for it. Brother provides an install script for their driver on their website, but because my system is rpm-ostree based and immutable, I would get rpm-ostree errors and the installation would fail.

    I found a Reddit post yesterday that suggested running sudo rpm-ostree install printer-driver-brlaser, which worked and I was able to connect to the printer and configure everything as needed.

    However, when I try to print on both sides of the page, the back side of the page prints upside-down. I've tried changing the setting for which edge to flip when printing (portrait/landscape), and it doesn't seem to change anything. I printed the same document on a Windows machine on this printer, and it went through just fine, so I've isolated the problem down to the CUPS server that my machine is running.

    If there's any more information I can provide, please let me know. I've tried the troubleshooting steps I know and have reached the limit of my knowledge.

    [Bazzite] Important announcement regarding system updates [Action needed] - FYI
    universal-blue.discourse.group Important announcement regarding system updates [Action needed]

    If you use Bazzite, Bluefin, Aurora, or any other Universal Blue image (including our toolboxes) then you need to follow the instructions in this announcement in order to ensure that your device is getting updates. We were rotating our cosign keypairs this morning, which is the method that we use to...

  • Stack of floppy disks: Am I a joke to you?
  • Ventoy is an open source tool to create bootable USB drive for ISO/WIM/IMG/VHD(x)/EFI files. With ventoy, you don't need to format the disk over and over, you just need to copy the ISO/WIM/IMG/VHD(x)/EFI files to the USB drive and boot them directly. You can copy many files at a time and ventoy will give you a boot menu to select them.

  • [Help] Unable to write files to an SMB share on a NAS
  • That unfortunately didn't work, but I really do appreciate your response.

    I just had to add an entry for my uid and then "forceuid", and it worked!

  • [Help] Unable to write files to an SMB share on a NAS
  • That worked! Thank you very much!

  • [Help] Unable to write files to an SMB share on a NAS

    Edit: I found the solution! All I had to do was add the uid with my username, then I also had to add "forceuid" for it to actually go through. My fstab entry now looks like:

    //192.168.1.21/Media-Library /mnt/Home-NAS/Media-Library cifs user=Jellyfin,password=password,uid=my_uid,forceuid,iocharset=utf8 0 0

    Thank you @lemmyreader@lemmy.ml for posting the solution from Stack Exchange!

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Hello! I have an Ubuntu server with a NAS mounted using cifs-utils, and I've created an entry in fstab for the share to be mounted at boot.

    My fstab entry looks like this:

    //192.168.1.21/Media-Library /mnt/Home-NAS/Media-Library cifs user=Jellyfin,password=password,iocharset=utf8 0 0

    (The password is not actually "password" of course)

    However, while I'm able to access the share perfectly fine, and even have a Jellyfin server reading from it, I cannot write files to the share without using sudo. I have some applications that manage metadata for music, and they're not able to change or add files in any way.

    I am however able to access the share from my Fedora machine just fine with the same credentials, since I use KDE, I just added them to the default "Windows Share Credentials" setting. I don't have the issue where I have to use sudo to modify files, so I know it's just an issue with the share mounted to the server and not permission issues on the NAS itself.

    What am I doing wrong?

  • Is raytracing quality same in Nvidia and AMD?
  • So how does it work? Is it a fake software level that mimics G-Sync behavior? Something like V-Sync?

  • Is raytracing quality same in Nvidia and AMD?
  • Oh that's really gross... but of course they get away with something like that.

    I have a Freesync monitor (MSI) with an Nvidia RTX 3060, and Nvidia control panel gives me the option to "enable support for unverified displays" or something. Works just fine for me?

  • [meme] Sustainable modes of transit
  • From my understanding, they only go for so long after you pay, which is a flaw in the fee-system they're based on.

    I'll be honest, if I pay to ride one of those scooters, I get 75% of the way to my destination, and then it just ceases to function until I pay again, I'm just gonna leave it where it stopped. There's no way I'm dragging it along with me.
