You could try using bindfs to spoof the original user id and then chown the whole drive after successfull mounting (i’m a noob, just my understanding of the issue, don’t know if that’s really possible)

But how dies rotten coconut smell?

The good thing about Linux is, it’s not very ressouce demanding. If you pick the xfce version of Mint, you can get away with 4GB of RAM. But you won’t have that much fun coding as soon as you start something more ressource heavy (big data sets, ML, …) so this depends a little in which direction you want to go. However see if you can find something used, preferably something you can open from the back side to upgrade components like SSD and RAM (cheaper than buying higher specs)

I struggled with Kubuntu as newbie (coming from Windows) - Mint was easier for me and I sticked with it (Cinnamon in my case, but my laptop is more powerful)

Okay, let’s play this game :D Mint, because it’s frickin easy and fulfills all my needs while being stable enough for my work laptop

Who should clean cities and subways from dropped food then? Rats?

I still prefer it, HDDs aren’t free and I personally really can’t tell the difference (my TV kinda sucks anyway)

Your old stuff is most likely in x264 video codec, while, especially at the higher resolutions, x265 / HEVC and in rare cases AV1 are the standard today. But it also depends on the specific release how many streams (like audio tracks, subtitles) are included

For the remote management, either a VPN to your parents network or exposing (e.g. Cloudflare Tunnel)

Afaik the devs were in contact with the dev of introskipper about implementing it natively into Jellyfin. Maybe the archieving means there is heavy progress with this

I know and I tell her that, too - it’s just something to consider when calculating the wife approval factor

My gf likes to click on ad entries of Google searches - that doesn’t work

I’ve never subscribed to more than two - Netflix and Prime. Whenever exclusive stuff is somewhere else, I get it on Bluray or sth and add it to my Jellyfin. Since the first two get shittier every day, I’m thinking about cancelling them, but haven’t done yet

Thanks for posting here, Anthony! 🫶

Thank you for the explanation. Before Authelia I used Cloudflare ZeroTrust email-autentification, but switched, because I wanted full self hosting. Relying on DUO instead would bring me back to that dependant situation. In other words, I’ll probably stick with my Authelia solution for now

Nice - does it work with the Android App, Chromecast etc? Currently using Authelia and NGINX proxy manager for 2FA, but that’s limited to browsers

The percentage shows how much of the currently watched media is already transcoded - if your hardware were too weak and the transcoding is slower than the playback, you could wait for it to transcode like 30% before you start watching. I feel that :D if my 1070 wouldn’t be more than enough at the moment, I’d bite the bullet, too

Is Jellyfin all you run on your server? If yes, it’s unlikely a hardware horsepower problem and you should look closer at your local network and devices used for viewing. Well thinking longer about it, it is also depending on the media watched (codecs especially - how often do you need to transcode) and number of concurrent streams… Afaik the A380 is great for transcoding and the AV1 support offers a great future proof GPU. LTT made a video about using this GPU for a Plex server - the results shouldn’t be too different for Jellyfin I think

It’s the 1970s car friendly town - so car friendly noone wants to go there anymore, because there is nothing than car infrastructure and car pollution. It doesn’t have to be like this, take back your towns folks!
