This is cool but for self-hosting you probably want a more robust monitoring system capable of alerting at all times. Prometheus is what I use. It also gathers data over time and can monitor many machines.

Fun fact, Igalia is a worker co-op that does open source development for hire.

Does pre-revolution Cuba qualify as a comparable stage of capitalist development to the US today? Methinks no and I don’t expect things to go the same way in the US as they did in Cuba. I think the US is closer to the state of capitalism Marx thought would start a transition towards socialism than Cuba or tsarist Russia.

Some significant differences from past iterations:

• Many developed industries that don’t have to be built from scratch
• The most powerful military in the world

Just based on those two, if a socialist revolution is to occur in the US, there would be no immediate (or any war) waged on it, so no resources would need to be dedicated on that. There would be no need to scramble to develop almost all industry. Due to the extreme consolidation, taking control over the system would likely be easier - fewer levers control everything.

We’re just riding the bus. Jesus is at the wheel and he’s pressing the gas pedal. We’re just anticipating the destination, not changing how fast we get there. 😄

Hasn’t China surpassed it at this point?

Socialist isn’t entirely the opposite of authoritarian. In some dimensions it is. In others it’s unrelated. The USSR can be both socialist and authoritarian. Many argue it was both.

The Israelis have no idea what’s coming for them. They’ve gotten themselves into this right wing stasis and they seem to have become oblivious to the domestic dangers posed by the tools and tactics they’ve developed for “external use.” This shit is coming home and I’m guessing any dissent over expansionist policy will be the first to get repressed.

That’s odd because the clients are just web apps I think. That should work without crashing on a stable OS. I use them on Android mobile and Android TV with extensive subtitle usage and haven’t seen instability.

A funny thing I noticed is that the client distributed in F-Droid is extremely old even though it says it’s updated recently.

I think there’s research to that effect.

I switched from a heavily used Plex server with about 10 users to Jellyfin with the samw usage patterns abour half a year ago. So far it’s been pretty smooth sailing. A better world is possible!

Yes baby.

Thank you for your service @Track_Shovel

Hm, I thought Chromecast needs HTTPS and internet-visible endpoint.

Oh? I haven’t upgraded yet. 😄

That’s how it works with Tailscale as well. Tailscale creates Wireguard tunnels underneath between the different devices. There’s also an open-source self-hostable Tailscale control plane.

Pinokio is a 1-click launcher for any open-source project. Think of it as a terminal application with a user-friendly interface that can programmatically interact with scripts.

A web UI that runs scripts. Cool I guess. If you’re into that kind of thing. There’s no way I’d use this instead of docker compose and Ansible/SaltStack. And yes I realize you probably could use compose from a Pinokio script.

I do use both a reverse proxy and Tailscale. All services are proxied. All services except for Jellyfin are accessed only via Tailscale. Jellyfin is publicly available. I’ve obscured it a bit by setting up long, randomly generated DNS name. The proxy would only forward traffic to Jellyfin if the request comes from that exact DNS name. Bots would have to know this name for the proxy to entertain their attempts at all. Then every user has long, randomly-generated password. I prefer to only use it behind Tailscale but some of my family needs direct access. Also Chromecast.
