Can't connect to MacOS server from Jellyfin Vue
  • Ok, this makes sense, thank you.

    I'm now able to access my Jellyfin server from other devices in my home. (A browser on another machine, and an Apple TV with Swiftfin).

    If I wanted to extend access to people outside my home, what's the best way?

    Thank you

  • Can't connect to MacOS server from Jellyfin Vue

    I'm new to Jellyfin, and I'm having trouble getting started.

    Goals:

    • Host my media on a Mac Mini server
    • Access my media in my home from 2 other devices (one is an Apple TV, the other is a Firefox browser on my HTPC)
    • Let my family members in other homes access my server via Roku or Apple TV.

    So far I've set up Jellyfin Server on my Mac Mini (specs below). I can see my media. Server seems to be working.

    But when I try to access my server via Jellyfin Vue on another device, I keep getting an "Unable to connect" message. I've tried different server addresses, but no luck. Any ideas on how to address?

    Thank you Lemmy folks!

    Why I Left Firefox for Brave
  • So I'm looking for a script that disables all power settings when Firefox is playing a full screen video, but then re-enables them when the video closes.

    Does anyone have that script?

    Why I Left Firefox for Brave
  • I've tried disabling the screensaver in power settings (not via script). But I have to keep some power settings so that my machine goes to sleep when not in use and the TV turns off.

    So whatever my power settings are, they will kick in. If I disable screensaver but I have a 30 min sleep timer, the comp will go to sleep, even if I'm watching a movie in Firefox.

    Typically, turning off my TV looks like this:

    • I close a tab that's playing a movie.
    • Firefox reverts to my home tab, showing all my streaming sites.
    • I get up and walk away
    • My computer goes to sleep
    • My TV, not getting any input from the computer, turns off.

    If I go the script route, it might screw up that sequence, right?

  • Fun fact about the original Sim City: the lead developer said that they wanted to model real cities in the game, but "we quickly realized there were way too many parking lots in the real world and that our game was going to be really boring if it was proportional in terms of parking lots."

  • Somone PLEASE make a good read-it-later app for e-ink tablets!

    I use an Android e-reader (the Likebook P6) and I'm so frustrated by the lack of a good read-it-later app. This chart lays out the shortcomings of current apps.

    Pocket used to be good but they dropped support for page turning.

    Does anyone have a good app for saving and reading articles on e-ink screens?

    There's an Omnivore beta app that supports page turning (great!!) but... for some reason, I can't adjust the fonts on my tablet. (I have this issue with the official Ominvore app, too.) And the Omnivore app doesn't auto-download articles?!?! I have to be online to load each article when I open it, and only then can I go offline. Pocket and Wallabag don't work this way; they'll download all your articles at once and you can read them all later, even if offline.

    Are there any other options???

    A Google Calendar for art openings in NYC

    New York has a great gallery scene, and every Thursday you can attend gallery openings. But finding out which galleries are hosting events can be a little archaic: The only sites that list openings are really old, and they don't offer any way to subscribe (say, via RSS).

    You know what would be great? A Google Calendar that's updated with all the best art gallery openings. For starters, it could source from these sites:

    Can someone make this *please *so I can subscribe to it?

    "Grow up. These are my movies, not yours": George Lucas Won't be Happy How Star Wars Fan Group is Illegally Saving the Original Trilogy
  • I have the Despecialized Editions (very similar project to Team Negative One, creating a digital version of the theatrical versions.) Whenever a friend has a kid, I throw the Despecialized trilogy on a drive and give it to them for the future. No child should grow up watching the Special Editions.

  • How to assign keyboard shortcuts in Linux?

    I've just started using Brave on Linux (distro info at bottom) and I have a question about keyboard shortcuts & how the browser manages active windows, because it seems to be doing something different from my last browser.

    I usually use Firefox, and I've set it up so that I can open a new tab with the Mail key on my keyboard. Pressing my Mail key executes this command, opening a new tab.

    xdotool getactivewindow key ctrl+t

    But now I've switched to Brave browser, and that command no longer works. When I've got Brave open and I press my Mail key, nothing happens.

    I've tried alternate commands:

    xdotool key ctrl+t

    and

    xdotool getwindowfocus key ctrl+t

    but no result. Does anyone know how to fix? What is Brave doing with its browser tabs/windows?

    Thank you!

    Mozilla released a Firefox Nightly test build with vertical tabs - gHacks Tech News
  • Sounds like that's in here:

    "The test build shows the horizontal tab bar and the sidebar at the same time by default. A click on the new "hide tab strip" button hides the horizontal tab bar so that only the vertical sidebar remains."

    Mullvad ads on local subway
  • Agreed. There's a slight relief here, though: I believe this is the Times Square shuttle train, which only runs back and forth over a few stations and never goes outside. So at least you're not on this train for long and never missing a view

    Mullvad ads on local subway
  • Folks are asking "Why post this here?" I get the question but I think I also get the OP, as a New Yorker who was surprised to see this ad IRL.

    Most of our subway ads are for VC-funded Internet darlings (think: mattresses-by-mail, kitschy underwear, online therapy) or for some aspiring blockbuster movie from an Internet giant.

    Until I saw this ad, I had never in my life seen a subway ad for a company I actually used, let alone respected.

    Seeing this ad in the wild broke my brain. I have advocated for online privacy for over a decade. I have spent so much energy pushing people to use Signal. But I had never before imagined that "online privacy" was a concept that could find an audience in mass marketing.

    I don't know if Mullvad will take off. But I know that seeing these ads moved me. I felt like maybe, MAYBE, our movement is breaking through.

  • Firefox CSS @lemm.ee mulcahey @lemm.ee
    Window controls moved in latest update

    For years, I've used a CSS trick to move my window controls (Minimize, Fullscreen, Close) from the Menu Bar into the lower toolbar, right beside my Overflow menu. (I'm on Windows 10, so these are the controls you see in the upper right window)

    But suddenly, that doesn't work. My window controls are back up in the Menu Bar. That's unfortunate, because I usually hide my Menu Bar.

    Can anyone review my code and tell me what needs to change? Thank you!

    How do I enjoy life in spite of my dogshite circumstances?
  • One of the best things, if you can afford it: enroll in a class. Could be anything. Painting. Swimming. Dancing. Learning something new alongside other people really puts your mind in a different state
