Privacy@lemmy.ml•does Reddit block my connection because i use a VPN?
3·6 days agoIf you use the browser extension on Firefox it will do this automatically.
You’re correct. The Fire Stick would be a client. I currently use a Pi 4 as my server and it works great, but I use KODI instead of jellyfin. This means that nothing trys to transcode when I use it. However, my brother is able to connect to my server through Tailscale and he does some sort of GPU pass thru with a jellyfin container and as far as I know it works great.

World News@lemmy.world•China is beating the US in battle for energy export dominanceEnglish
9·24 days agoIf you had told me 20 years ago that China would be closer to manifesting the Star Trek future I always wanted than the US, I would never have believed you. But here we are.
If you’re looking for mini PC recommendations, I have been very happy with my Beelink Ser8. It was chosen specifically for handbrake encoding and is an order of magnitude faster than my underpowered decade old desktop.
Edit. I just reread your post saying that you don’t want to buy a mini PC so disregard that advice but if you want to stream to TVs on a budget, I am a big fan of the Fire Stick. If you get them on sale, they’re usually available for half the listed price (about $25 when I got them). You can get them on ebay if you don’t want to support Bozos. Currently they’re very easy to configure and they work great as long as you can get over the clunky menu design.
You may want to check out https://www.thewebernets.com/ blog posts. I use some of the recommend setups for my movies and most look great, but I do use subtitles which I think he mostly skips in his setups.
I am just some rando but I think this poster may have meant tinymediamanager as opposed to tinymusicmanager. I use tinymediamanager and it’s great.
Mm hmm

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•The Daily Beast uses "Hot Mic" in a headline to describe someone saying things with a microphone in a known public place into known recordsEnglish
12·2 months agoThis guy thinks they had 100 FBI agents scrub diaper’s name from the files because he was a whistle blower? Surely the best way to prove his valiant role in this ordeal is to release the unredacted files, right?
You could probably name any race from Trek and justify them as Gorn food.

Gaming@lemmy.world•I think my backlog could sustain me for a long time.English
2·3 months agoI played through Metroid Dread finally about a month ago. Had it since it launched. When my wife was a kid, their rule was that they had to beat the game before you could get a new one. I rarely beat games as a kid so that seemed harsh to me.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Microplastics will be the "boomers all have lead poisoning" of millennials
19·4 months agoI’m crazy. Mark My Words. In 20 years, we’ll have so many microbes capable of consuming plastic people will be bitching about their packages not being able to effectively protect their goods from spoiling. The goldfish has spoken.
The author makes a pretty compelling case for letting Phil go. Can you imagine the owners of a sports team continuing to pay a Manager millions of dollars a year despite them getting their asses kicked every time they suit up?

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Both District of Columbus and Colombia are named after Cristobal Colon (Christopher Columbus) Does anyone know why they're spelled differently?

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Can anyone recommend an extraordinarily comfortable reclining couch, in a mid-range price. It doesn't have to last me a lifetime but if I could get 10 years out of it, I think that would be fine
5·4 months agoLay-z-boy might be worth a look. I don’t have a couch but I have several reclining chairs. They’ve all held up well for 10 years and then some.

I would threaten to not buy any more Halo games but I haven’t bought one in like a decade so I recognize there’s not much bite there.
