Thanks! Definitely going to spend some time with the media managers this weekend. Replacing 4 separate-but-connected-or-related apps into one would be amazing.

Respect. You certainly don’t see this everyday.


It’s fine. The White House says:
Federal hiring, promotions, and performance reviews will reward individual initiative, skills, performance, and hard work
So there’s no way he could be unqualified.


I’ve just finished ripping about 1300 CDs. I used Jellyfin for a bit since I already had it set up for my video library, but I wasn’t happy with the Android options and it was pretty basic.
Navidrome is a fucking TREAT. Paired with Symfonium, I’m finally enjoying my personal music collection regularly again.
As for tagging, OP, while I get why people like Picard, it doesn’t always work with how I like to do things. I put everything into a music folder on my desktop, use Mp3Tag to retrieve metadata, edit what I need, and make sure the artwork is decent and sized where I want it. Then I use the tag > filename to organize and move them to my NAS.


I remember buying a bootleg copy of that and the Corman Fantastic Four movie on VHS at some record show years back. Owning those was a matter of pride.
Since we are all people of taste, I don’t know how many of you are familiar with the inspiration for Albuquerque, but it had been a while since I heard it. Listened earlier this week and was shocked at how directly it referenced the original.


First off, take this for what it is: a guy who can follow instructions but does not understand all the inner workings of docker.
I use Gluetun and have a set of apps that I run through it. They are all in the same compose file. Each of the ports is defined in the Gluetun section and not with the individual app. Then each app’s network_mode is set to service:gluetun
This routes all the traffic for those apps through the VPN while maintaining my regular network for everything else.


Even though I have a great internet connection, plenty of storage on a NAS, and a mini PC as a server, I still like the idea of a seed box that’s just off in another country somewhere. Everything has its place, and I don’t have to clutter my own server with things that maybe I want to seed but not keep around on my local network.
Locally, I route any downloading type apps through Gluetun for that little extra bit of anonymity.


I saw this post yesterday, but haven’t checked it out:

I have lrcget run on my library to grab missing lyrics each night and use Symfonium for listening and displaying the lyrics. If I need to, I go out to Genius.


I’m not sure if you’re just trying to illustrate some point or intentionally trying to link Hitler and Coca-Cola. But Coke was down to trace amounts of cocaine by 1904 and none before 1930.


Adding to the Aegis chorus.
I also use Proton Pass for some sites that aren’t as critical for me / don’t have a bunch of PII. It’s easy.


An “I Wish I Had …” addition to this: maybe start something like Wiki.js or Joplin that you will then use to document what you do as you go. Keep a record of your process so that you can work your way back if you need.


I am an old person and really know nothing about him, but looking at the thumbnail, I do remember enjoying his hit song “Dick in a Box.”


Well, shit. Guess there weren’t as many Very Bad People as we thought. Better keep busy getting the educators out.
CasaOS in a similar vein. Casa is just an app that can be installed on Linux though.
When I started, I wanted something to obfuscate all the Dockishness because I didn’t get it and just wanted to get going. It helped me get familiar with common Docker things and while I’m very far from being any sort of expert, I’m comfortable enough in a compose file now.
I still have Casa running, though I rely on it less and less. At some point maybe I’ll move everything out.


Decided to pick up Final Fantasy VIII on sale for Xbox last weeiend, no I’m just getting started on that. The difference in character models from VII to VIII is crazy and almost hard to believe that it was the same hardware.
I know I owned this on PS1 at some point, but hell if I remember anything about it other than the frigging gun-sword.


If you aren’t already self-hosting services and aren’t really comfortable with command line, you might want to look at something like CasaOS and this video: https://youtu.be/QfpZcXXGpVA
I watched it several times when building my stack and still go back to it from time to time.
Ultimately, Sonarr and Radarr take away the tedium of running your media server. You tell it what you want, it does the work of finding, obtaining, naming, and sorting. Then Jellyfin picks it up automatically. Jellyseerr, as others have said, puts a nice shiny coat of paint on it.


You can move files to new folders with Mp3Tag, too. It’s normally all I use for managing my files and metadata.
Ah yes. “Now is not the time for political finger-pointing.”
So do you have just a bunch of random boolean tags? The Genre tag can hold multiple values, so you could have “Classical;Relaxing;String Quartet;Suites” if you wanted and each is identified separately.
