Cyberpunk 2077 gets way more realistic as CDPR launches big update [Immerse audio update/Thursday June 20]
  • Many reasons to say that:

    • beautiful art
    • great graphics
    • nice plotting with enough elements to really absorb you in the quest
    • world with it own personality
    • our beloved Gerald
    • well done / not flat characters

    It is true that tw3 is a better game, but if you are really apassionated about it the definitely tw2 will also fill your (already high) expectations.

    Nad it is underrated because many people only knows and only explored tw3 without giving any opportunity to previous releases. To the point that a lot of the fan base was created when this game became available for free download in some game platform.

    There is always a subjective component in this kind of discussions but this image will help you to see if yiur setup will make sense based in the real perception of the human eye.

    How to set Multi Language on Radarr
  • The learning curve is a bit steep but his guide is awesome https://trash-guides.info/Radarr/Tips/How-to-setup-language-custom-formats/

    In the other hand, the public trackers are dominated by English and, at least I, I couldn't find a lot of Spanish dual movies better than the 720p

    In any case, if you can gain access for a Spanish private tracker with radarr support, let me know

    Exposing a iscsi disk to vm in lan (good practices)
  • Thx, I will keep in mind, but I have consumer grade hw and I am afraid that vlan in my switch is not possible.

    I any case thanks for the bunch of tips

  • Hi all,

    I need to exposs an iscsi disk to be used as a main disk in a vm. Because I am pretty new in this solution I would like to ask some tips and good practices to avoid making rookie mistakes that can really hit the performance or availability.

    What are the common things I should take into account before deploying everything?

    Thanks in advance

    what's your experience with paperless?
  • Super good, it is increíble useful and the ability to find any document in almost any place in seconds in awesome.

    Once this is said, you need to stick to a process and it is time consuming, and of course, you need to manually review the automatics tagging feature.

    So, It is not a set and forget like most of the people expect

    Planning build: Power efficient headless steam machine, and later upgrade for AI tasks
  • Definitely.

    I forgot to add that it would be necessary not to overdimension the set up. Any extra power is something that needs to be powered.

    But with the chosen cpu and GPU there is not a lot of room here.

    Planning build: Power efficient headless steam machine, and later upgrade for AI tasks
  • Some tips here:

    • get a platinum rated power supply, if you can afford it go for a titanium. The efficiency in the power supply is half of the efficiency of the rig
    • reduce the number of the modules to the minimum
    • get a platinum rated power supply ;)
    • get big passive coolers, you want to idle the fans
    • reduce the number of usb and connectors to the minimum. Their converters are not the most efficient. Try not to connect enything on them.
    • NO mechanical parts (including fans or water coolers)
    • set schedulers to conservative or power efficient. You don't want to spike the power just because a task is 2ms longer than expected.
    • pick a power efficient CPU/gpu (I think we can discard this one based in your choices)
    • use the latest amd adaptative undervoltage technology to ensure to reduce the wattage of the cores
    • try to reduce to the bareminimum the number of background tasks /services running.

    And that's all. Sometimes there is a component of trial and error because sometimes the curve performance / power is not entirely linear and you don't want to hit exponential-non-linear zone.

    Good luck and if you can post you build with numbers and some lessons learnt would be great

    Good luck

    jellyfin freezes on TV every 2 minutes
  • Hi,

    Every time it happened to me was either transcoding, either a real poor network speed.

    I would double check the transcoding option

    Clearly I need to work in my communication skills. My apologies if I really upset you

    VPNs, self hosting and security
  • From your text I understand you are not a really tech savvy person and yiu are really struggling with all the service and configuration involved.

    If you want a simple tip, stick to tailscale, it is a vpn and will protect all your services because you will not have access from internet. It is pretty safe and the configuration is trivial.

    The obvious drawback is that you won't have internet access without installing the vpn, which depending the use case can be a deal breaker.

    Honestly, a proper configured nginx with certificates and strong password are reasonable secure when there is not any misconfiguration. But if you are in doubt stick to tailscale.

    Good luck :)

    Software that supports your body should always respect your freedom
  • Yes you do,

    Configuration control is a max in this world and you don't have the control/ability/power to decide which patches go in or stay out. The vendor, the person who has all the power and knowledge, is the one who decides.

    You can loose all your certifications or being held liable for any problem due to that policy.

    Not even red hat (certainly not a life critical system) allows a different level of patches/state out of their approved ones

  • I couldn't disagree more with you. If you are running something REAL life critical the moment there is a patch you install it and deploy as fast as possible. And if it contains any severe patch it is even the vendor who recalls all the equipment with service bulletin and advisory letters.

    With life critical you don't wait the bug to appear because It maybe too late to avoid deadly consequences.

  • Hi all,

    I drop this question here to see if somebody is already facing the same problem.

    As a catastrophic recovery plan of my password manager I keep an encrypted copy of the database + some portable apps in a Dropbox account. The idea is that if one day I am suffering a big problem with my Handy and I am away of my computer (or just awoken naked in the middle of the forest) I can recover my digital identities so I can send t least an email.

    I was using Dropbox but recently I discovered that sometimes they send a confirmation email when they think something suspicious is going on.

    Can anybody recommend a storage provider without those annoying confirmation emails?? If they accept weak password in this case it would be a plus

    I’ve just released Gatekeeper 1.6.0. It’s a single executable that turns any Linux machine into a home gateway. Now with realtime traffic graphs, LAN autoconfiguration, full cone NAT and better looks.
  • Incredible amount of work, respect.

    If you are lacking ideas for the super long term I could suggest you:

    Any kind of ids/ips (intrusion detection system) Deep inspection packet to detect any vpn or crypto tunnel Ability to create a vpn link to another instance of the program (to link geographical disperse nodes)

    And many other things that honestly I am ashamed of asking :)

    CGNAT blocking external access to NAS. Looking to address this plus more.
  • Truly incredible, shame on the.

    Question then.

    Are you experimenting some kind of connections problems?

    I ask because I know some multiplayer games make a heavy use of the ipv6. Steam have some servers that are not reachable via ipv4, and don't speak about vps...

    CGNAT blocking external access to NAS. Looking to address this plus more.
  • Honestly, I cannt believe it.

    Double or triple check it. The problem these days is to get a semifucntianl ipv4, they are expensive, scarce and full of problems.

    Ipv6 on the contrary is abundant and all enterprise equipment fully support it since decades.

  • hi all,

    i have joined recently the world of the usenets but it looks like everything is dominated by the english with little to nothing to other languages

    I am looking for a usenet server with good content of media in non-english, preferrably german, spanish or french (i am from europe)

    can anybody suggest something for an usenet noob? it is not important if the content is behind a pay wall, but if the server needs invitation it would be good if a good samaritan can spare one :)

    thanks in advance

    hello everynody, Right now i am selfhosting several services for my family in an effort to de-google all our services.

    Right now i am facing difficulties to host a server that can be use to sync smartphone contacts from diffurent users (my family) and keeping them separated.

    does anybody recommend any server able to serve this goal? and if the auth backend can be connected to an LDAP server even better.

    regards and thanks
