Fleddit in June 2023. Was on kbin for a while but it’s been broken and janky lately, so I’m giving midwest.social a try now.

st3ph3n , to Technology in Tesla is recalling its Cybertruck for the fourth time to fix problems with trim pieces that can come loose and front windshield wipers that can fail | The new recalls each affect over 11,000 trucks

I think the ones in that lot were sitting there waiting for recall work to be done before they could be delivered to suckers customers.

st3ph3n , to Technology in I'm convinced watchOS 11 is hinting at an Apple Watch 10 with better battery life

They charge fast when the battery is fresh and healthy. When the battery health gets shitty the software automatically switches it to slowly trickle charge to preserve it, although you can go into the settings and re-enable the previous fast charging.

My SE is currently at 75% of its original battery capacity. I put it on at 8AM this morning after charging it all night, tracked one workout during the day and it is now almost 10PM and it is at 16% charge and dropping fast.

st3ph3n , to Free and Open Source Software in what's your current linux distro?

Seconding this experience with Mint 21.3, although on a laptop here. I just wanted something that works without much fucking about, and it delivers.

st3ph3n OP , to Jellyfin: The Free Software Media System in Jellyfin Media Player v1.11.1 released

Yep, I only noticed because I got prompted to update when I ran it today!

st3ph3n , to Jellyfin: The Free Software Media System in I'm glad we have trickplay now, but why isn't it on-demand?

It took about a week to generate for my library without hardware-accelerated MJPEG generation, at the default resolution in the Trickplay configuration. I let it use 8 threads but CPU use was close to nothing the whole time, even with priority bumped up to above normal.

It wound up consuming about 10GB of storage by the time it was done, for a library of 2.6TB. My library is mostly 1080p stuff, a mix of h.264 and x265.

st3ph3n , to Jellyfin: The Free Software Media System in Release 10.9.4 · jellyfin/jellyfin

Mine's been running for about 5-6 days now, also not a huge library. I'm running Jellyfin in an LXC container on a host with 16 CPU cores. Started with 4 cores, but have bumped it up to 8. I have noticed that when it is generating the Trickplay images for h.264 content it only uses about 8% of the available CPU resources. When generating images for x265 it uses about 60-70%.It doesn't seem to matter what the priority for the trickplay job is set to.

I assume I should probably wait for my multi-day running Trickplay task to finish before attempting an update, right? :)

st3ph3n OP , to Jellyfin: The Free Software Media System in Jellyfin Android TV client v0.16.11 released

My library isn't huge (in my opinion anyway, a few hundred episodes of TV and maybe 100 movies). My Trickplay job is about 16% complete after 3 days, lol. My AMD iGPU doesn't appear to be supported for the MJPEG stuff so I don't get GPU acceleration, but I have Jellyfin set to allow 4 threads for generating Trickplay images, and am running on a 4-core VM that sits on physical hardware that isn't slow at all. Looks like even though it is using 4 threads it is still only using one of the cores, as CPU utilization for the ffmpeg process doing it is always at about 25%.

st3ph3n OP , to Jellyfin: The Free Software Media System in Jellyfin Android TV client v0.16.11 released

At the rate my Jellyfin server is generating trickplay images right now the Android client might have support for them by the time it finishes.

st3ph3n , to Jellyfin: The Free Software Media System in is there a jellyfin api which I could query to get the state if someone is actively watching or not?

I use one of those tiny mini PCs, with an AMD mobile CPU in it. It sips power but has enough oomph for transcoding when necessary. I'm sure the NAS that my library actually sits on uses way more power with its mechanical HDDs.

st3ph3n , to Technology in It looks a lot like VMware just lost a 24,000-VM customer • The Register

Schadenfreude intensifies

st3ph3n , to Jellyfin: The Free Software Media System in Jellyfin Server/Web 10.9 Released

I run mine in an LXC container. I just snapshotted it in case of disaster and then ran apt update && apt upgrade.

st3ph3n , to Technology in [Retro Dodo]Google is killing Retro Dodo and Other Independent Sites

While Google certainly has a lot of responsibility for how shit their search results have become and the effects they have on website operators, the SEO industry can all go eat a giant bag of dicks for being the driving force behind making search results worthless trash.

st3ph3n , to solarpunk memes in new political aspiration unlocked

Oh no! Anyway…

st3ph3n , to Memes in I've been dying to tell someone.

Ayy, I have a Ryzen 7 based T14 Gen2. Wonderful machine. Enjoy!
