  • Quick notes from an avid jellyfin user. When you have a show or movie or whatever you want, not get identified, there’s a simple identify option you can do on the client on a computer or phone by clicking the 3 dots on the media. You get to search and label it. The only time this hasn’t appropriately assigned metadata for me was for shows with duplicate episodes in one mkv or whatever. That did take a lot of renaming, which did suck and is reasonable to not want to have to do. Especially for massive libraries.

    I definitely agree about the roku client not having a marked as watched feature, that should be added.

    There’s a lot of work to be done but it’s not just being done in the basic edition. For instance, there’s plugins that allow the skip credits and skip intro functions you want. And there’s ones for fanart, and allowing other databases of Metadata to select from. There’s a lot of plugins and more are being actively developed rather often. Even I’m trying to develop a “continue watching” feature like from Netflix, but it’s going slowly.

    Jellyfin definitely takes more finagling than plex, i switched at the beginning of the year, but I’ve had multiple times since where my internet is out and because jellyfin is local network I’m still able to stream my media.

    So yeah. Just some info about jellyfin. I get wanting the ease of plex, but I’ve personally really enjoyed adding the plugins and fucking around with everything it has.







  • Obviously, the Lord of the Rings Trilogy. Mainly movies for me because I haven’t read them. Extended editions, obviously.

    But also, I adore the mass effect trilogy. Yeah, the rpg elements get gradually watered down, and the third ones ending isn’t the best, but it’s still an absolutely amazing Trilogy that I replay yearly. And it all came out in 5 years! Nowadays, single games have 5 years of dev time, at least. In my eyes, it’s as perfect as it can be…Once it’s been modded a bit.








  • Don’t get me wrong, this is a shitty thing to do. But there are two important facts to keep in mind. First, that this has been something they’ve been working on for months so it’s not like biden and his administration went from telling bibi that he needs to protect civilians and try to come to a deal with hamas and have a ceasefire to selling him these jets in the same talk. Second, these jets have to be built. It’ll take at least 5 years for them to be built and anyone who is aware of how slow our government builds jets knows that that could be extended. If anything this isn’t shitty because it’s giving Israel jets, its shitty because it looks like a fucking bribe from the Israelis to try and make sure the US continues to support them.


  • Important note for those who dont want to read the actual article: the ban is essentially saying only some flags can be bought with federal funds and then hung up officially, and the pride flag isn’t one of them. It also doesn’t prohibit personal displays, so while they can’t be on flag poles or bought with federal funds, they can still be displayed. Interestingly, the bill also bans the confederate flag. It’s still just bigotry being forced by the GOP but there’s always more context than a headline can provide.
