Actual answer for 3:

  • put jellyfin behind a proper reverse proxy. Ideally on a separate host / hardware firewall, but nginx on the same host works fine as well.
  • create subdomain, let's say sub.yourdomain.com
  • forward traffic, for that subdomain ONLY, to jellyfin in your reverse proxy config
  • tell your relatives to put sub.yourdomain.com into their jellyfin app

All the fear-mongering about exposing jellyfin to the internet I have seen on here boils down to either

  • "port forwarding is a bad idea!!", which yes, don't do that. The above is not that. Or
  • "people / bots who know your IP can get jellyfin to work as a 1-bit oracle, telling you if a specific media file exists on your disk" which is a) not an indication for something illegal, and b) prevented by the described reverse proxy setup insofar as the bot needs to know the exact subdomain (and any worthwhile domain-provider will not let bots walk your DNS zone).

(Not saying YOU say that; just preempting the usual folklore typically commented whenever someone suggests hosting jellyfin publicly accessible)

Holy fucking shit I am not alone. Oh god. It's real. I'm not alone.

How good is it with background activities?

About the only thing holding me back is that my phone runs a continuous glucose monitor, constantly connecting with a small sensor in my arm. That all quietly dying in the background would just... not be an option.

Not my style

Not comfortable

Too cold

Don't worry, I haven't had to use Windows or MacOS since the early 2010s.

Summarize and find stuff, iirc

Oh, nice. Other way as well? Can I comment from my Lemmy instance's web interface?

Why, what did I miss?

Well, good news! Windows File Explorer gets built-in AI actions, so you can combine the worst of both worlds! 🥳

No.

Apart from everything else, also consider that it's just respectful to at least try and learn the local language of wherever it is you are going. Doesn't matter if it's on vacation or long term company deployment.

Also, LLMs are absolute garbage at picking up on things like subtle language-based jokes, for example.

I dream of a pure information protocol. Kinda like RSS, but... More.

  • allow any piece of information (news article, DM, sensor reading,...) to be wrapped in a standard format
  • subscribe to any number of source directly or indirectly (e.g. through a self-hosted relay server)
  • allow networks to define default data sources (e.g. get sensor data from machines as soon as you are connected to corporate networks
  • make the data declare what UI elements are required,
  • but allow clients to display them however the fuck they want
  • allow user to assign priorities statically or programmatically to any source, and to filter, sort, categorize based on it

Essentially: I want "the feed" from universes like The Expanse
