Or just use rust stakeholder, it’s guaranteed to make you look very busy 😄

Wait am I the only one who actually likes WEBP and is cheering for JPEG to finally die ? 😭

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Me trying to explain why I found 2001: A Space Odyssey an excruciating an confusing snoozefest without a single interesting point… while also insisting that Barry Lindon is one of the greatest films ever made : I SWEAR MY OPINION MAKES SENSE

Wait aren’t those ADHD therapeutic help made so you can feel good about losing something that easily replaced by a paperclip for once instead of losing something actually important like your keys ?

Memes quickly assembled in Gimp should be sitting on a throne considering the skills required

Nope, pretty sure French politics should get a crying face (saying this as a French citizen)

It must have felt very weird to be working to prevent Y2K while everyone else was hoping for a good show, and in the end see people be disappointed instead of impressed because nothing happened 😅

Watching things crash is always more interesting than watching things work perfectly as usual…

• “Oh no everything will crash at the end of 1999 !”
• “Wait nothing happened… but that because it will definitely happen in fact at the end of 2000 ! Because there’s no year 0, we start at year 1, you see”

It was difficult to deal with the disappointment after all the hype 😢

Why pretend to be a bride when you could pretend to be a dinosaur ?

I’m going to bed and 7:30 isn’t late… oh wait it’s 7:30 am

audiobookshelf is actually getting there for ebook support :

Any file with an extension EPUB, PDF, CBR, CBZ, AZW3, MOBI is considered an “ebook file”.

AZW3 and MOBI ebook files have limited support and do not keep your progress.

https://www.audiobookshelf.org/guides/ebooks/

What audiobookshelf is really amazing at is not requiring a strict naming scheme, unlike jellyfin it supports lots of different ways to name and organise your files, and it tracks modifications to the files (renaming, moving) without having to rescan the whole library like jellyfin (and without leaving behind entries relating to the old paths that don’t correspond to anything anymore, though that should be finally fixed in jellyfin’s next release !)

I would have liked a dedicated ebook server but I’ll probably try using audiobookshelf in the meantime, of all the various ones I tried it’s the best by far. Just missing a “DNF” status to be perfect 🙂

For a media server :

• Audiobookshelf for audiobooks and podcasts (for podcasts it can fetch them online from a RSS link and download them, you don’t need to manually download them)
• Jellyfin for films, series and music (for music you can use jellyfin as backend and another app as frontend if you don’t like jellyfin’s music player, a lot of people find it lacking)
• Komga for reading comics and manga (there’s also Kavita but I haven’t tried it)
• Komf for fetching metadata for comics with Komga or Kavita
• Suwayomi Server for manga (it doesn’t only act as a reader, with extensions it can find manga online and download them; it can sync your reading progress with AniList, and it’s compatible with Tachiyomi if you need that)
• Haven’t found one yet for ebooks. I passionately hate Calibre and wouldn’t touch it again with a 10 foot pole, but a lot of people swear by it so you might give it a try and see whether you love it or hate it (it’s usually one of the two). Be warned though, it will automatically rename all your books and sort them in subfolders in a very stupid way, making it difficult to find anything again manually. So if you want to test it, do it on a copy of your ebooks first, that way if you don’t like it you won’t be stuck with everything in your ebook library renamed weirdly (speaking from experience -_-).

Cloud :

• Nextcloud : your very own locally hosted Cloud.

Everything can be run in docker containers so your distro or even OS doesn’t matter.

Hardware :

• Personally I run everything from my NAS in docker containers but it’s starting to get overloaded so I’m planning to make a dedicated media server on a cheap mini PC like a refurbished Dell OptiPlex SFF.
• You could also go for something like an OrangePi or RaspberryPi if you don’t mind using ARM.

YOU’RE A GENIUS ! I take eggs out starting by one end and it always feels super weird to have an unbalanced carton, I’ll have to try your method.

15° ??? 😱 Are you sure you’re not a ghost that doesn’t know it froze to death last winter ?

That’s only because you’re dumb. What do you need heating for ? You could just wear a turtleneck and save on energy costs (according to the French government asking people to turn the heating down to 17° in winter)
