How did you install jellyfin?

It should not core-dump (read: hard crash, something has gone terribly wrong), at best you should get a configuration error and errors like that.

You can see the logs of any systemd service/unit with this: journalctl -u <name of sevice> so in this case journalctl -u jellyfin (Tip: add -f to follow the output of a running service - useful for monitoring).

Note that some programs log to their own files (and not to stdout) so if the above command comes out empty you should look into /var/log/ directory.

I would worry about getting rate-limited then, I've seen some content servers just be very picky about making too many requests (through jumping in the video too far too often).

You know what, I am gonna call skill issue.
I get that the "press R to join a group" can be overlooked or that not everyone has the intuition to click on the active missions on a planet (alright, these are currently bugged and do not refresh quick enough so always full).

But all one has to do is a quick google search to find out you just open the big holo planet and press R, there are also definitely worse offenders in cryptic/useless UIs.

Uuids are part of the gpt (table) on the disk.

  • /bin - Binaries.
  • /boot - Files required for booting.
  • /dev - Device files.
  • /etc - Et cetera. The name is inherited from the earliest Unixes, which is when it became the spot to put config-files.
  • /home - Where home directories are kept.
  • /lib - Where code libraries are kept.
  • /media - A more modern directory, but where removable media gets mounted.
  • /mnt - Where temporary file-systems are mounted.
  • /opt - Where optional add-on software is installed. This is discrete from /usr/local/ for reasons I'll get to later.
  • /run - Where runtime variable data is kept.
  • /sbin - Where super-binaries are stored. These usually only work with root.
  • /srv - Stands for "serve". This directory is intended for static files that are served out. /srv/http would be for static websites, /srv/ftp for an FTP server.
  • /tmp - Where temporary files may be stored.
  • /usr - Another directory inherited from the Unixes of old, it stands for "UNIX System Resources". It does not stand for "user" (see the Debian Wiki). This directory should be sharable between hosts, and can be NFS mounted to multiple hosts safely. It can be mounted read-only safely.
  • /var - Another directory inherited from the Unixes of old, it stands for "variable". This is where system data that varies may be stored. Such things as spool and cache directories may be located here. If a program needs to write to the local file-system and isn't serving that data to someone directly, it'll go here.

tl;dr it's a strategy game, kinda like Stellaris (but... dumbed down?), it's free (for now) and fully playable with Proton Experimental, I have enjoyed playing it.

Stellaris Nexus, dubbed by devs as Stellaris experience under an hour.
If you love Stellaris or strategy games in general then I would recommend trying this one, there is a week of playtest (after which it will release as beta/pre-release, dunno the cost).

There is a lot to be polished (especially UI-wise) but I definitely do not regret sinking the last hour into first play-through of the Succession game-mode.

I usually do this:

  • refresh uBo caches
  • delete all site data of youtube (in the shield thingy left of address bar)
  • close the browser

Mostly always worked

I have been using xiaomi phones for a long time now, for most of them the (xda) community eventually had great ROMs that (eventually) worked without problems or with very little.

Though these days I need a working phone so I didn't bother with my (Mediatek) Note 8 Pro - last time I looked phones with these chips were a lot harder and more dangerous to flash then the Qualcomms I had before (loved my Xiaomi A1 for that tinkering with Ressurection Remix).

So I am looking for an investment - a device I won't have to replace for another ~6+ years but I really want my device to do mostly what I would expect, without any snooping or other privacy shenannigans - I know xiaomi is probably the worse choice for this but their hardware specs were always the best for the price and were generally easy to flash.
I don't like pixels - they are too expensive for the hardware it offers, at least in my country.

Thank you for any tips in advance.

Update: iPhone is a no go for me because of the walled garden - I am a software developer by trade and hobbyist, I like to have the possibility of cracking the device open, both HW and SW wise. I am willing to trade the longevity of the device for this.

We are cutting the release cycle short and will release curl 8.4.0 on October 11, including a fix for a severity HIGH CVE. Buckle up.

... But this time actually the worst security problem found in curl in a long time

Every Item, Entity, and Equipment has 5 possible qualities now, and each quality tier gives an improved bonus value, used for most of the stuff

What are your feelings about this addition to Factorio? (Will be part of coming expansion and optional)

My bet would be it's waiting for temperature to drop.

Edit for the downvoting folk: Some of the profiles of my washing machine have temperatures of up to 90°C

So I am hosting an instance for myself and I have noticed that when I go into Admin Settings (cog symbol) I get a beefy list of Banned Users on the right but I didn't ban any of them.

Is this just unintuitive UI?

The way I thought this works is when I, as admin, ban user from my instance then that user won't be able to log-in here anymore but when I ban a user from other instance then anything from that user won't show up at all on my instance (kind of like shadow ban, but only for users of my instance).

E: I am the only admin/mod on my instance - the only user able to ban users, so there is noone else who could have banned someone without my knowledge.

Upd: Bans are federated and it makes sense, thanks /u/stown@sedd.it

Stumbled upon this talk and as a drive-thru bug squasher of many OS projects myself, it was interesting too see some of my feelings expressed.
