Hdcp bypass splitters seem easy to find, have you tried one? There are also hdcp converters so if you have a splitter that only bypasses 1.4, you can try hooking it up to a 2.whatever to 1.4 converter.

I also can’t remember how they work exactly but you might need an hdcp compliant display connected to the main output of the splitter so the CC can establish an hdcp handshake. Idk if that’s only a thing with some of them. Good luck!

Luckily they are on 2.0.1 now so there has been 2 stable version by now

Is external libraries maybe what you’re looking for?

There’s already an issue open for it: https://github.com/immich-app/immich/issues/1713

Be sure to thumbs it up!

It’ll be hit or miss. If it’s ripped from the same source then it should be fine, but different editions, TV edits, scenes that are cut in some versions or additional title cards at the beginning will mess it up so you’d need to QC it.

Here’s my advice as someone who basically could have written this post when I was your age (I’m now 30)

You can absolutely find a partner who wants to be free from gender expectations and find a relationship like you describe (I did!), but it will be extremely hard to find if you don’t put yourself out there and get used to sorting through the majority who are satisfied with gender roles.

The most important things imo are to 1. Keep putting yourself out there when you have the energy. 2. Take breaks if you have to, don’t let the experience make you jaded or let that frustration affect how you treat others because that’s an easy way to repel someone who would otherwise be a great match. 3. Keep being yourself, don’t be afraid to showcase the ways in which you are not traditionally masculine. I literally put a picture of myself in a maid outfit on tinder and I get quite a few compliments. You’ll only repel the people you don’t want and it’ll be like a beacon to attract those who view gender roles in the same way that you do.

To your last point, I would guess a lot of guys probably live quietly unhappy. But plenty have found accepting partners and social circles who are open minded about identity and gender expression.

That’s what I do. 1.6TB currently on rsync.net, only my personal artifacts excluding all media that can be reacquired and it’s a reasonable $10/mo. Synced daily at 4am.

If I wanted my backups to include my media collection or anything exceeding several TB, I would build a second NAS and drop it at my parents’.

My homelab has been mostly on autopilot for a while. Synology 6 bay running most lighter weight docker stuff (arrstack, immich, etc) and an Intel nuc running heavy stuff (quicksync transcodes for Plex+jf, ollama). Both connected to digitalocean via WG for reverse proxy due to CGNAT.

I had my router SSD either die or get corrupted this past week, haven’t looked much at the old SSD besides trying to extract the config off of it. I ended up just fresh installing opnsense because I didnt have any recent backups (my Synology and nuc back up to rsync.net, but I haven’t gotten around to automated backups for my router since it’s basically a plain config, and my cloud reverse proxy which is just a basic docker compose + small haproxy config). Luckily my homelab reaching out to the cloud reverse proxy means there’s basically no important config on my router anymore, they just need DHCP and a connection.

Besides that the arrstack just chugs along on its own.

I recently figured out I can load jellyfin playback URLs into vrchat video players, either direct stream or through the transcoding pipeline as an m3u8 that live transcodes based on the url parameters you set. This is great because the way watch parties in VRChat works is that everyone in an instance loads the same URL pasted into media players and syncs the playback. That means you need to have a publicly accessible url (preferably with a token of some sort) that can be loaded by an arbitrary number of unique IP addresses simultaneously, which I don’t think is doable with Plex.

I’m now working on a little web app to let me log into Jellyfin, search/browse media, and generate the links with arbitrary or pre-set transcode settings for easy copy/pasting into VRChat. The reason it’s needed is that Jellyfin only provides the original file without transcoding when you use the “copy stream” option, so I believe the only way to get a transcoded stream url currently is to set the web interface to specific settings and grab the URL from the network. But that doesn’t let you set arbitrary stuff like codecs and subtitle burn in and overriding what it thinks you support. So a simple app to construct the URL will make VRChat watch parties a lot easier.

I’d say download everything and keep track of what you can’t find, then rip those because there will probably be people in the data hoarder or lost media communities who would love to hoard and share it.

I think you’ve exactly described why some people need a VPN. My ISP does 3 strikes when they get complaints :/

Imo it’s not enough of gap to be a big deal, there are much worse age gaps, especially when you’re talking about only people above 21. I’ve often dated older and when I was in my early 20s I would go on the occasional date with someone around 30 and the biggest reaction I got from friends or people around me was light teasing, but most didn’t really care. Now that I’m 30 I don’t feel that uncomfortable dating down to around 25, but I also look young and don’t feel like I’ve matured that much since my 20s.

I don’t think most people would care at the end of the day, I feel like it only becomes weird when you’re like in your 40s dating down to 20 something.

Run a DHT crawler? It can be a bit resource intensive (I ran magnetico for a while) and it’ll take a while for it to index enough old stuff for the new discoveries to be actually new, but you’d get a fully decentralized continuous feed of newly discovered torrents that doesn’t depend on any centralized infrastructure, just the decentralized bittorrent DHT swarm.

To get a picture of what it looks like, you can check out btdig, it’s the same thing so if you click on “recent findings” at the bottom you’ll see what a recently found feed of DHT looks like.

Fwiw Anubis is adding a nojs meta refresh challenge that if it doesn’t have issues will soon be the new default challenge

Is there any way to connect the bsky android app to the atproto.africa relay or a third party appview that uses the atproto.africa relay? I wouldn’t mind using bsky more if there was a clone of the android app that doesn’t use the bsky relay/appview. Looking at whtwnd it appears to be just web and not native apps?

I would like to host my own PDS and access bsky through a native app using third party relay+appview, but I haven’t seen a way to do this yet.

Some foreign language communities don’t seem to have their language marked so they still show up despite my language settings, so I blocked them to make things easier.

I get this 100% of the time now when trying to save photos, between this and comments sections showing up empty almost all the time when the post is from my own instance I’m considering using a different app.

No problems playing the Ethel or megusta releases here. Were you able to play the files initially? They might just be corrupted. Which release group did you grab?

Same experience here - I no longer can even cast from the new app because the cast list is just empty. My partner can cast from iOS, but the new iOS app design doesn’t appear to have a playback settings menu during cast playback, so we’re forced to transcode instead of direct stream. It also has fits of buffering several times a day when LAN streaming.

I have Jellyfin running in parallel but the only Jellyfin app I really find palatable is Findroid on android TV but it’s kinda in alpha right now

I do exactly this, both just docker containers in the same docker-compose. Both have the exact same media paths mounted. As long as you have good naming conventions (I let arrstack rename all my stuff) it pretty much just works and everything shows up in both just fine.
