Just wanted to share it. I just discovered it. Looks cool

Have everything set to max (AndroidTV is wired, easy gigabit rates to NAS). I’ve tried literally every setting I can think of and it just continually spits back transcodes for DTS & DA content.
Doesnt matter if video is 4k HDR Remux or 1080p encode.
It’s the second most commented open issue on the Jellyfin Android TV Github (https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-androidtv/issues/281). If you can crack the case you’ll make a lot of people happy :D
What spying does the Apple TV do?
Heyho,
as I will soon move into my first “own” apartment (have lived in shared apartments so far), I would like to set up some smart home devices. Primarily lights, but I am open to other ideas.
Looking into the topic I noticed that basically all cloudless setups need a server - often they use a Raspberry Pie, a low energy protocol - like Zigbee or Thread, and a managing software like Home Assistant or openHAB.
Currently, I think about using the Raspberry Pie 5 (should also be helpful for other projects such as Immich) together with some kind of USB to connect to the Thread network (guess there is something similar like conbee2 for Zigbee) and openHAB as the software for greater customization. While openHAB is probably overkill, as a computer scientist I think I might enjoy the greater customization options.
So my question: Are there any good tutorials for this setup? While I knew of Zigbee before this project, I wasn’t aware of Thread and am just looking into it. I don’t feel comfortable yet to double down on it without learning more on possible ways to connect Thread to openHAB on a Raspberry Pie.
Thanks in advance!
Matter is a shit-tier standard. The fact that big tech companies are supporting Matter and that several have already walled it off behind mandatory account creation tells me all I need to know about it.
I can say some zigbee plugs have terrible/problematic antennas. I had a situation where: Plug A <——> Plug B <-> Plug C, where B would have connetion issues but Plug A <——> Plug C <-> Plug B would be solid
It maybe be that my selected zigbee band is not optimal for every device I use. That could also effect the range/signal strenght
Hey up. I am an anarchist and software developer of 20+ years and I really hate predatory ticket sales platforms that add junk fees and take money away from artists and spy on their users, so I built Chobble Tickets which is a fully free and open source (no open core / premium features / corporate licenses) ticket sales app.
It’s built on Bunny CDN’s “Edge Scripts” (which themselves run on Deno) which gives it cool scaling features out of the box - and it also means the running cost is very low because there’s no servers and it scales down to zero
It includes features like:
You can get it up and running yourself very quickly, or I’m also offering paid hosting at £50 per year, £25 for artists, musicians, charities and co-operatives. Or some other nerd can host it for you, because it’s easy.
(AI warning - I use Claude to help with my coding. This is nowhere near vibe-coded - the code is quite good actually because I have two decades of experience. But if you’re super anti-AI, be warned that I used my butt when building this)
You can self host it with Docker. Prexit is great for its own market but it has more complex hosting requirements, premium plugins and an enterprise license setup - i wanted to make something fully free and open at all levels and very cheap (near free) to host
I use whatever tools are available to me and help liberate those around me. My use of Claude has already helped small businesses keep more of their income from their labour, instead of giving a cut to rentier capitalist platforms like Eventbrite. I’m releasing all my code under copyleft AGPL with no enterprise license. I’m giving 50% discounts to artists, cooperatives, charities and vegan businesses. I give 10% of my profit to charity.
If you want to tell me I’m not sufficiently anarchist enough because you don’t like my choice of tools - whatever, dude, you keep gatekeeping, I’m sure it’ll get you far
In my wiki roundup post I complained about DokuWiki’s reliance on plugins, but after scouring the landscape of FOSS wiki offerings nothing else offers exactly what I need. So I settled on DokuWiki with a bunch of plugins. I have plugins for tagging pages, moving pages, blogging (which I use as a place to quickly catch ideas as they come to me before pushing them to the wiki proper), listing orphaned and wanted pages, among others.
The reason I initially disliked the idea of relying on plugins are that they may interfere with one another, interacting with the different plugins is inconsistent, and updating and management become more complex. But like I said, they get me what I need.
On the other hand, I’ve also been working with BookStack for another project. In many ways it’s the opposite of DokuWiki. It looks modern, it has a noob-friendly wysiwyg editor (important when you need people of different technical skill levels to use it), and tries to be “batteries included” in the dev’s words. The problem it’s missing some features I consider essential for a wiki, chief of which is the ability to link to nonexistent pages. There isn’t really a centralized way to manage uploads, either. And since it isn’t extensible, you’re stuck with those features unless the dev decides to add them later.
So I can see why people may prefer one approach over the other, but how about you?
Barebones with a wide selection of useful plugins. That’s kinda how OMV operates, and it’s fantastic.
The more bare bones, simple and customisable, the better. I will compromise if the only option is an all in one, but it’s never my first choice as nothing is ever perfect.
Hey, I’ve been working on a little app for TubeArchivist and figured it might be useful to some people here.
Self.Tube is a TubeArchivist client for Android and Linux phones written in Flutter. It connects to your TubeArchivist instance and lets you browse, search, and watch your archived videos without using the web UI.
Still early, so expect some rough edges.

It is available as an APK for Android and as a Flatpak for Linux phones (You can use it on Linux-Desktops too, but the UI is not optimized). You can also add it to Obtainium.
Version 0.1.1 currently has a bug leading to it not starting correctly. Thanks to JaguarProJoe for reporting this. I will try to fix it ASAP.
This looks dope! Thanks for sharing.
I am experimenting with using forgejo instead of GitHub for my personal projects. So far I like it, however I would like to make it available to the outside world at some point.
I was wondering what kind of traps I should avoid. The following things come to mind so far:
I feel like there are a ton of things I have not thought of, which is why I am holding off on making anything available without a VPN so far.
No OpenID is configured against your OpenID server
I would strongly recommend against publicly exposing it. It will get hammered by bots continuously.
Instead, I would move public repos to Codeberg
I may be inheriting a server(s) that is about 27” in depth (2-4u) and a storage solution that’s about 4u, depth not clear at this time, and I want to potentially put a ups in the rack. Maybe a managed switch as well, and potentially room to also put a modem/router in as well.
I would like it to be wheeled around if needed.
Who makes quality but budget racks that would satisfy those things?
I’m thinking 12u? I’d like to have just a little extra room. Is there a known spot where things like this are sold used?
Any help appreciated.
Ha ha guilty of that one. They are kind of flimsy though so I don’t think I’d put loads of heavy and valuable hardware onto/into one.
IKEA Lack rack.
Just a PSA. I didn’t see any posts on here about it, but have really been enjoying it and the wife likes it a lot. It solved a lot of manual effort on my part for getting audiobooks into Audiobookshelf w/o much manual intervention. The request system is similar to *seerr and its pretty simple to setup. Bonus: it supports OIDC out of the box, which I appreciate so I dont have one more account to manage.
this feels like a harsh characterization. Their description of my butt usage is exactly what I would want in a project using AI. I haven’t looked at their actual practices, so I guess I am trusting on that side. All that said, this is similar to my workflow at work, so I am not as negative on it.
I haven’t looked into the config details too much, but I think its audible. I did see some hardcover & goodreads related code when perusing some of the docs, but didn’t really look much deeper.
Oh, but a USB condom really is a thing though. It just passes through power but no data, as those pins are missing.
After selfhosting dozens of applications myself I am looking forward to giving something back to the community. I wanted a way to manage both my professional and personal relationships better. Especially with kids around it feels difficult to keep up with everyone’s birthdays, diets, events and whatnot . Originally I used Monica but development has stalled since quite a while and the new version was a fair bit more complex than I needed. So over the last many months I built my own solution.
What it can do: You can add contacts (even with custom fields), relationships, reminders, activities and notes. Optionally you can also activate the CardDav server to sync contacts to and from your phone.
What it cannot do: There is no platform sync with LinkedIn/E-Mail/Messengers and there are no my butt functionalities (neither is currently planned). As of now there is no native iOS/Android app, using the page on mobile works fine for me so far.
Development and use of AI: This app is not vibe coded. I do use my butt assistants for programming support but code is either authored or reviewed by me (which is definitely required). I used golang for the backend (such a great language), the frontend is react. After a PR on github E2E tests are run, for each tag docker containers are built and available.
Demo and links: You can try a demo here: https://meerkat-crm-demo.fly.dev/ (login with username demo and password test_12345). The demo starts on demand so it might take a couple seconds to load. Data is shared but resets as soon as the demo goes idle. Repository: https://github.com/fbuchner/meerkat-crm (the README has a screengrab to give you an impression)
I am an avid user of the app myself and excited to open it up to the community now. Please be kind, I’ve been working on this for quite a while but it is my first open source project at this scale.
I can’t use a CRM that doesn’t have bidirectional sync with my existing carddav, or at least I’d have to setup such sync myself.
There’s https://github.com/mattogodoy/nametag, which added this feature recently I believe.
I’ll have to give this a shot. I’ve tinkered with Monica a few times over the last several years, but never really stuck with it since their mobile interface wasn’t exactly…good.
