Interesting. I might have to get Jellyfin set up and run them simultaneously for a bit. Like I said my favorite Plex thing is Plexamp because it’s so clean and simple and I’d rather use a dedicated app for music instead of the main app.

I do like that it’s FOSS though, so that’s pretty great.

Is jellyfin that much better? I’ve seen people throw it around a lot and I’ve yet to try it. The big thing I like about Plex is Plexamp as a music app and it seems like Jellyfin lacks that for the time being.

The last time I pirated a game was for Freelancer. Couldn’t buy it anywhere except a CD and there was no guarantee it would work so I pirated it, it wasn’t what I expected, so I removed it.

I also downloaded a Halo CE crack for PC but I owned the physical disk and just used it to play with friends at a LAN party.

Otherwise there’s no reason to pirate anything gaming related, short of protest or something.

TV, movies and music are so hard to find. Lots of people will tell me “no just use Spotify”. No. Go try to listen to Turn the Page by Bob Seger, and not a live version. The only versions Spotify has are the live and the Metallica versions. Try to find Whitesnake’s Deep Purple cover album. I used to never pirate music because I could buy the few albums they didn’t have and upload them to Google music. Now, there’s no option for that. I’d rather have a smaller library with the music I want than a massive one that’s missing my favorites,

I think a drive like that is pretty much perfect. If their current usage is low enough that it’s still well above a consumer drive, then it would probably work.

Guess I can grab a couple of those and slot them in so I can start my server migration.

Yeah so for the actual data, it’ll all be HDDs. I’ve got a couple 8tbs I shucked from some EasyStores, got a 3rd WD Red and will be getting a 4th soon. So actual data is all gonna be stored there. This is specifically the OS/Programs stuff, which (and this may be my ignorance) I understand that I’d want to run Proxmox on the SSD. I just want them to be in a raid1 config here so that I have redundancy similar to the rest of the system, but I only need the one.

So yeah I’m just looking for what SSDs I should go for as my OS/Program drive, under the assumption I have to run Proxmox on that drive. If I’m mistaken then let me know, but that was my understanding. Like I said I’m somewhat new to self-hosting stuff so my current system is just Ubuntu for desktop that I pretend is a real server by SSHing into it with my desktop terminal.

Every time I call one of my higher ups at work he’ll say something dumb like “Dominos pizza how can I help you” or “This is the product owner help line, no we can’t change your due dates”.

I generally get a chuckle out of it.

Last time he called me his therapist.

Yup. Buy CDs, vinyl or digital from Bandcamp or from the artist direct and then host it on Plex.

I’ve thought about trying jellyfin but Plexamp is just so nice that I don’t think I could leave it.

A few of my communities came over but the big one I’m missing is the college football sub with flairs and everything so I can discriminate against those of lesser teams.

The one here just isn’t the same.
