I suppose I don’t have enough experience or interest in the Shield as a server, so I’ll take your word on that part. I don’t disagree that purely as a client, it’s overpriced today, although I’ve always been satisfied with mine. It’s always outperformed most other clients I’ve ever tried. What would you suggest as an alternative now, just a mini pc or something?

How does that make them useless? They may not work for a use case where you’re mounting network drives, but still work perfectly fine if you’re using them to connect to a media server.

Very uncommon to refer to NCOs or SNCOs as officers in branches of the US military that I have experience with. Interesting about Canada though, I wonder what other countries do

I’m not very experienced with OpenWRT - how sensitive is it to device changes? If your Barracuda dies tomorrow, do you have to purchase the same brand / model, or could you slap your saved config onto a similar device? Is there some sort of device compatibility to consider?

No issues or anything so far with the Unifi devices? That’s good to hear. Do you have any third-party integrations with your Unifi devices, or is it as locked of an ecosystem as I’ve read others say? I don’t think I’d mind taking the plunge, as long as it has good customer service and support.

The music isn’t tagged in Lidarr with Musicbrainz or whatever? Does Picard do more than that?

Yeah, you and I have very similar use cases with this. Gluetun, VPN, download clients + *arr stack, I get it. I’ll be sure to update with a solution, if I spot one (when I get around to looking)!

I am also currently dealing with this same exact issue, I’m wanting to run multiple instances of Lidarr for MP3 / FLAC libraries with Gluetun. I don’t have an answer (I haven’t put in the time to try and solve it yet), so apologies if I got your hopes up. I’m just here to confirm that others have this issue too!

Edit: Regarding that documentation, it seems like it’s not saying that changing the port breaks it, it’s just that you have to set both sides of the mapping to be the same. The default is 8080, so instead of 8080:8080, change the mapping to 8081:8081. That’s how I’m reading it, anyways.

I should also mention that the closest that I got to fixing this was to boot up my 2nd Lidarr container separately, setting the port in the Lidarr WebUI console to something different (8687, for example), and then attach it to my Gluetun docker compose file. I’ve had mixed results with this. I’ll do a docker compose pull to update my stack, then docker compose up -d for it, but both Lidarr instances have trouble reaching Prowlarr and my download clients. You might try this approach, and tinker around with it. I just haven’t had time to really play with this “solution”

Yeah that’s true. Different styles of deployment, in the end all that matters is that your application is up and running

If I already have a docker environment set up, why not use the container? I use containers for most of my stuff, if I can. It makes many aspects of system management so much easier.

My solution to this was a radicale docker container, with DAVx5 on f-droid. Very lightweight, just works without much configuration needed. I don’t use my phone for email much, so I just use thunderbird for my email client

Yes. I believe the paid version only gives you more possible nodes (where the transcoding is done), and more reports? But yes, you have the entire suite of tools necessary in the free version. It’s worked great for me, I’ve used it for a year and a half now

Agreed. I’ve converted my library all to 265 using Tdarr, I’m up to 11.5 TB of saved space. I like having all my media be uniform for my Plex server, and Tdarr is a nice and easy tool to achieve it

FMD2 (for auto-downloading manga), Komga (for hosting manga on a local server), and Tachiyomi for a self-hosted solution, if you’re interested.

I suppose the issue here is more semantics than anything, yeah. I think better discussion would be had if the topic was “how can we help LLMs better understand and present information,” as opposed to a more sensational “GPT will cheat and lie”

I think the reason I’m not comfortable with using the term “lying” is because it implies some sort of negative connotation. When you say that someone lies, it comes with an understanding that they made a choice to lie, usually with ill intent. I agree, we don’t need to get into a philosophical discussion on choice and free will. But I think saying something like “GPT lies” is a bit irresponsible for the purposes of a discussion

They said “it just repeats words that simulate human responses,” and I’d say that concisely answers your question.

Antropomorphizing inanimate objects and machines is fine for offering a rough explanation of what is happening, but when you’re trying to critically evaluate something, you probably want to offer a more rigid understanding.

In this case, it might be fair to tell a child that the AI is lying to us, and that it’s wrong. But if you want a more serious discussion on what GPT is doing, you’re going to have to drop the simple explanation. You can’t ascribe ethics to what GPT is doing here. Lying is an ethical decision, one that GPT doesn’t make.

The best I’ve found is Free Manga Downloader 2 (https://github.com/dazedcat19/FMD2). It’s not perfect, I have some gripes, but I have FMD2, mylar3, komga, and Tachiyomi (on my mobile devices) with the kogma extension for all my comic stuff. Works well enough for me
