I too have lifetime Emby and still use it today. Media browser renamed to Emby. They took the M and B from the old name to get the new one.

But if you don’t already have lifetime and are paying monthly or annually then that price is also almost doubling


Things like this maybe? I haven’t seen any performance days but it’s a cool project


My suggestion is to migrate the server to the Java edition and use one of the projects that support plugins like paper or purpur.
After that install geysermc, floodgate, viaversion, and viabackwards plugins.
https://geysermc.org/download https://github.com/ViaVersion/ViaVersion https://github.com/ViaVersion/ViaBackwards
This lets people connect to the Java server from bedrock clients and it gives some flexibility in the specific version used to connect to the server.
This way you can use whatever official or questionable version of the Minecraft server client.
Migrating the world might require a special tool like chunker.
Once your on the Java edition client all kinds of options open up for you in terms of plugins and options should you wish.
The geysermc plugin supports extensions as well one I recommend is:
https://github.com/MCXboxBroadcast/Broadcaster
This one let’s you add an Xbox friend that you can join from most bedrock clients super easily.
If you go with your option A, you could virtualize the windows install and run it inside of the truenas or other os using qemu.
You would still need to have enough drives for a new array, but that was always going to be the situation
Proxmox backup server is my jam, great first party deduplicated incremental backups. You can also spin up more than 1 and sync between them


Once in a while discord signs me out and I have to do a bunch of extra sign-in steps on the official client. But otherwise I have discord, WhatsApp, Google voice, Google chat, Google messages (sms), Facebook, telegram, signal.
All the mautrix bridges are will made and robust


So, one thing that’s not clear here. Is the server and your desktop both at the same location? If they are I see no reason why you couldn’t just leave all the files on the server, have an NFS or Samba share then just stop it on the server and start it (over the network share) on your desktop. It would be functionally seamless, would require no effort to keep the files in sync, and would ensure your running things in the box you want.

Top to Bottom:
Bottom area:
The access to the crawlspace isn’t great so the CrapRack tm had to be assembled in the crawlspace.
Just 3.3 cents per day seems pretty reasonable


LLM AIs think any sentence that starts with who what where when, why or how is a question.


Have you ever tried using aurora instead of the play store for devices that don’t natively have it?


I think what’s funnier about this is that most home assistant users make purchasing choices based on support in home assistant. So anyone that bought one of their units and used it in home assistant would have just bought something else without the support in home assistant being there.
As a result I would think they actually made more money from having that plugin existing.


I think the issue here is more that interacting with certain companies or services is unavoidable. As an Android user I often will have to interact with iPhone users and the impact of their vendor lock-in techniques is that the experience of those interactions is worse on both sides.
I can’t convince every person to stop using an iPhone, or even just just a different messaging app, most people can’t even agree what to have for dinner…
So users that take it upon themselves to try and improve the experience by trying things like beeper or beeper mini are actually trying to help others maintain their choices and preferences without the degraded experience.
So sometimes a person voting with their dollars isn’t enough, since it’s others choices that still have an impact


Won’t be long until my ai model can produce it’s very own Linux distro complete with 7 fingered keyboard layouts

The option to install any extension has always been possible it’s just a tad more work to get setup.
I did this ages ago, I just add the extensions I want to the list and then they appear to let me install them


On Android I just started using kiwi browser a month or two ago it’s for android only but it’s chromium based and supports extensions which brings ublock and others to mobile.

Is there a reason you couldn’t use either use a self hosted or the public hosted copy of element or an Android/iOS app and connect it directly to the beeper synapse/dendrite server?
Their clients are just closed forks of element anyways.
Honestly the best thing to do is just start trying things and don’t only rely on your own stuff until you have a good understanding.
Just get an old computer and install an os you want to learn, worst case you break it and reinstall.
I suggest proxmox since you can lean on community scripts and can backup and restore any containers pretty easily if needed.
But as with anything don’t go in expecting to be perfect, just get started, break some eggs and learn from mistakes. You will learn what you like about it, what you would change and you can burn it all down and start again if you want as well.
