I haven’t heard of this game, but I do love adventure games.

The comments below aren’t encouraging though.

But the ultimate question is: free on steam or $0.99 on gog.com? I prefer supporting gog over steam…

I haven’t kept up with wine development in many years, but they used to have (and might still) winelib, which allowed you to compile a window app against it to create a native linux binary.

Nested comments are super slow

I agree with this. I wrote a lemmy reader for emacs gnus and fetching the comments really leaves a lot to be desired! In fact, I’d say a lot of the Lemmy APIs leave a lot to be desired (no pagination with a cursor!)

I love this!

Mere was interesting, but it runs entirely offline in a browser (which is pretty cool). But, this means all data lives in your browser’s localStorage (or indexdb), which would make it hard to sync between devices.

Sure. But I’d also not host it publicly on the Internet, just on my local lan!

I have a LaView LV-N9808C8E. It is quite a bit outdated, so I would not recommend that model, as the web interface requires Silverlight and the iOS app doesn’t work on the latest iOS.

BUT, it is basically an offline NVR with 1TB harddrive that records continuously from my 6 ip cameras (all wired with PoE directly to the NVR). I think this model supports up to 8 cameras.

Then, on my home server I run frigate with a Coral USB to pull the rtsp streams and do object detection. When objects are detected, the screenshots are sent to Home Assistant for alerts.

This gives me good real time notifications and nothing is exposed to the internet or any 3rd parties.

If I want to watch real time camera feeds, and I can use my wireguard vpn + vlc to watch an individual camera via rtsp (I used to be able to use the iOS LaView app when on my vpn, but it no longer works). If I need to go back and look at recordings, since the LaView NVR is continuously recording, I can go back and pull video directly from the device for the last few days.

This is where tools like bubblewrap (bwrap) come in. For opencode, I heavily limit what it can see and what is has access to. No access to my ssh keys or aws credentials or anything else.

They also sell flac. Bandcamp is my primary but 7digital is great for popular stuff.

I typically use split routing BUT also have dns set to my pihole, both so dns works for my internal services and for tracker blocking. That causes a big issue. Also I wish WireGuard would just handle failures better. Even when it can’t connect, it seems to break networking (at least on iOS)

It’s a side car service for navidrome so you already need to have navidrome (or other subsonic compatible server) running.

How does this handle IAM policies? At work we have a blackened that relies on S3 and IAM policies. For local development we use minio as it seamlessly handles that. Does garage?

I’m a big fan of Jellyfin. I would say it is easily family approved. That is for my family in my household who is using it on our home Wi-Fi.

But I am not about to expose it publicly. I have WireGuard set up on my immediate family’s devices and that is mostly ok (until you get on a public Wi-Fi that fails because you haven’t gone through their portal and can’t because the vpn is on, or you are on an airplane’s Wi-Fi with no internet trying to watch their movies and it doesn’t work until you turn off the vpn). Explaining this to my wife has been a nonstop battle.

I’d like it open it up to my siblings families, especially because I have the ersatztv plug-in to create approved child stations, but so many smart tvs and devices don’t support a vpn. How have others handled that situation?

How has immich been compared to photoprism? My issue with immich is that new releases kept breaking things. Has it finally stabilized? Lts are super important to me as I don’t want to spend every weekend reconfiguring services for my family.

This costs me not just time, but money. I know it isn’t much but is really a big pain. The biggest issue is that the app and recommendation algorithm isn’t going to be useful with 20 songs. You really need 1000s of songs to actually use the app…

This is very interesting. Do you know anyone who has actually tried these?

Can you de-google these? I have a personal rule against any google accounts or google devices…

Have you tried it with a Roku? My pi.hole blocks most things, but I haven’t yet tried to completely block it from the Internet. In the past, I’ve had to allow some domains through my pi.hole or things would be completely broken, but that hasn’t happened in a while…

I suppose I’d have to occasionally unblock it to get updates to the jellyfin app, which is doable.

How good is Jellyfin on AppleTV? My understanding was the app was a bit lacking…

I use smashing. It isn’t super active but there are still a lot of extensions for it and it is super configurable, especially if you know a little ruby and coffees script. I’ve written some of my own for tracking my city’s bus.
