some games prompt you for bug reporting data collection, this is usually connected to sentry.
You can block their domain on a dns level (i think *.sentry.io would work?), or if the developer has their dsn (the url used for reporting metrics) exposed in a config file, you can probably blank it out without too much trouble.
always close your toilet lid before npm installing!
iirc Apple music’s web ui also has sourcemaps, but I’m not subbed to apple music anymore to check. Its neat, but not really a huge blunder, nor takedown worthy.
Worth moving the usb cable or wireless dongle to a different usb port. I found my DAC needed an entire usb controllers worth of bandwidth.
After that it showed up without issue.
I’m surprised there’s no source code available. You think that would be a no brainer move after the original servers shut down. 😅
I use https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy which makes it pretty painless to self host on a vpc with Synapse as the server.
I don’t have federation setup, since I just use it with friends. So besides running the update command once a week, I don’t even think about maintaince.
I’m not at a computer atm, but I believe you can use kscreen-doctor to do that. It exposes pretty much all of kdes display settings.
And thats honestly why I enjoy Linux a lot more. The mistakes are my mistake…except for pageflip timed out.
I’m not sure if I would consider today’s Unity being an upgrade from UE2. 🤔
But considering how 90% of the game is in UnrealScript, they should probably just write an interpreter in Unity so that existing mods have a better chance at working.
Ah I remember trying to play this on a below min requirements gpu when it came out. Besides low performance, the sky was super messed up.
Can’t wait to dive in with an utterly overpowered pc in July.
lol! Well its always a good idea to see if what you currently have works well enough. Then splurge on the fun…i mean expensive things. But that doesn’t always work, so I hope the new parts serve you well!
One last thing to note, Jellyfin doesn’t have the best authentication coverage. iirc its possible to leak some metadata about videos, music, etc… I’d recommend either not keeping the server public facing (i.e. use a vpn to connect to it remotely) or don’t store anything personally identifying on it.
I just tunnel my traffic through tailscale, while annoying at times has been reliable. But I’m not sure thats available in Brazil.
oof. Yeah I think I have the 5400 rpm one. Maybe start with the regular hdd in raid and see how that fairs long term. Just make sure to backup your media in more than one place!
Western Digital Reds or Seagate Ironwolf iirc. Yeah they’re expensive because they’re rated for a different use case than traditional drives. I’m no expert though! I believe I’ve got a WD Red.
I believe thats what I do though, I have a ssd in there as well for the base os. And I just have the nas drive mounted. Jellyfin docker container setup to point to the nas drive as the media storage folder, as well as a samba share setup so I can throw stuff like bandcamp purchases easily.
This is all off the top of my head, as I’m not at my server atm…
I believe the 12400 should be good for hardware transcoding. I have a dell optiplex (i5 9th gen, can’t remember exacts) running a low traffic server (my wife and I), with no issues running at least 2 4k streams concurrently. It comes down to what you encode your videos to.
Additionally I’d grab at least one new NAS drive, as they tend to be rated for long term use. If options aren’t great there, then maybe a few drives in a raid configuration may also work. If you do get a NAS drive make sure its fairly quiet, my server is located in a common room, and the hdd fan is fairly audible. oops.
See if they can handle a ntsc filter, thats where most of the magic is. beautiful analog noise!
