I think this lets you host that management connection yourself.

No, but if you wanted to do that, headscale is the answer

vacuum tube is fun too

my kids have grown up with my adblocked version of the internet, when they connect to other internet thats not a filtered feed they get annoyed by ads in their games and on their videos

waydroid wont pass widevine beyond Level 3 which limits you to 720p, same as using firefox or chrome on desktop

are USB-C ports that do display using displayport standards to do it anyway?

displayport is starting to appear on some higher end tvs

(Yellow circle with white “W” on it)

thats the wayland icon, for whatever running it didnt map the icon

the age of the device put me off, it still runs android 11 as well apparently. I wouldnt want to buy one now and then a refresh comes out

how does it go for codec support out of Jellyfin? I’m starting to collect and also rip AV1 content, which is fine for computers and phones (and my newer TV does it natively), but trying to find a streambox that wouldn’t need to transcode it is proving harder than expected

what’s your plan on teaching these people to maintain their selfhosted instances? Are you selling support? I mean you could script pulling and recreating containers, but without eyeballs on it, that stuff will die eventually.

is there a plugin to pull data on the video into a library? Or are you just playing media files?

Where do you live that power is so cheap that you can spin that much rust and also can you run extension lead to my place?

Docker/podman are not virtualisation, they are containerisation. The system groups all the processes into a namespace and executes them on the same host/kernel as the base system. There is no overhead of virtualisation as its not creating virtual hardware or running a whole OS. Its more like the flatpak you’re already running than a vm

I’d have thought it was less hassle to use the jellyfin OCI container in either docker or podman. podman will even generate the systemd service file for you

always on they wouldnt know about it and if the connection failed or the wg service crashed on their phone then the services wouldn’t work. It adds a complexity that you don’t want when you’re trying to pass the wife test. Plus yes battery.

How do you all that have your services on your LAN accessing it over wireguard when external pass the wife/kids/family test? If I had to have my wife activate a VPN before she could access our nextcloud or bitwarden, she’d just never use it
