I like the term “extermination” which the ICC’s chief prosecutor used in his charging document against Bibi.
Genocide requires intent. There is at least the possibility that Israel is merely showing careless disregard and willful ignorance towards Palestinian lifes. That doesn’t make a practical difference, of course. The fact that Israel is maybe? not as racist as they could be, doesn’t help all the dead or starving civilians.
That’s why I like the term extermination. It’s precise but doesn’t require intent. It doesn’t imply that Israels interest in defeating Hamas is merely a smokescreen (for the record: I don’t think Hamas can be defeated militarily, but I understand the interest).
And it does all that without being a euphemism.
Edit: a previous version of this contained a Freudian slip where I confused the names of Biden and Netanjau.
6·2 years agoIt’s not just a YouTube downloader, it also allows you to download videos from, as the official website says, “a few more sites”. Those include social media sites such as twitch or twitter but also the online platforms of TV networks. If you live in the US, you can for example download full episodes from the big broadcasting networks (ABC, NBC, CBS) and PBS. If you’re British you can download stuff from the BBC. Germans find their public broadcasters supported as well. Likewise for a bunch of other European countries and Australia.
And with a good VPN you have access to all of the above.
You need to do the initial setup using the webui. You can access the UI with your synology’s IP address or domain name (if configured) followed by :8096 That’s also the URL, that you need to enter in finamp once you created an user in the webui
Technically they don’t even have to give you the option to refuse cookies if they have a legitimate interest to collect them. The idea being that if a company’s business model depends on them collecting a certain data point then you shouldn’t be able to get the service for free.
All of this means, that if a site offers you to refuse cookies they have a legitimate interest on then it’s probably bullshit and they are just using the general confusion to get more data than nessesary.

You could certainly do worse for a nas than a thin client with hard drives. But you probably want to go for something where you can add you hard drives via SATA rather than usb. That being said I haven’t run into any issues with consumer grade usb-harddives (but I’m also cognicent of the fact, that I’m not using than the way there are intended).
As a OS for a thin client solution or a NAS build from scratch may I recommend OpenMediaVault? It’s basically just Debian but with a nice web UI on top to help you manage your system. You still have full command line access but the web UI helps you to configure your drives and create network shares.
If you install the community add-ons (OMV-Extras) you also gain the gain the possibility to install and manage docker containers graphically
The only thing to keep in mind is that omv requires a bigger harddrive than the NVME drive that comes with most thin client. So there is a good chance that you need to change that (which will set you back an additional 20 or so bucks)
I have my media on hard drives strapped to the thin client externally but you should also be able to use an external nas. But I’ve never done that, so I can’t comment on how well that works. I’ve never seen anyone complain about such a setup though.
Btw: what nas are you using? Some NASs allow the direct installation of docker containers (Synology for example). So you could possibly run Jellyfin directly off your existing hardware
I’m using a hp thin client, I got refurbished for 30 bucks of of eBay. Basically any thin client should be more than enough and they don’t draw much power. The question is how many streams are you looking to facilitate simultaneously and at what resolution. Even a raspberry pi should be enough if you are only looking to stream one video at 1080p but it will struggle at two (and if you don’t enable any hardware transcoding, you don’t stand any chance). If you need more than that, you’ll need something beefier
ALLES EINZELFÄLLE
I’m using a Dell t520. That works really well for me.
But honestly: pretty much every client in that price range should work. Just check whether the (embedded) graphics chip can hardware transcode your media beforehand. And you probably won’t run the next Netflix on there but it’s more than enough for a family usecase with multiple streams simultaneously.
3·3 years agoThe other one did as well (https://zdf.social)
I don’t think it’s practical. Sure, you could install termux and use that to run Jellyfin, but you won’t have a pleasant time.
The better play is, to play spend 30 Bucks on a refurbished thin client and use that as your server. If you install Open Media Vault on there you’ll never even have to touch the command line. (You’ll have to install OMV-Extras on top of Open Media Vault for that).
Why should we be sorry. Russia brought this on themselves.
And thanks to activityPub there is interoperability between services. I only have a Mastodon account, but I can follow people on pixelfed without problem. It moves the focus back onto communicating rather than being on the platform
And Hindenburg wasn’t the candidate of the SPD. He was the candidate of a coalition of parties (the Reichsblock) spearheaded by the openly antidemocratic conservative-liberal German Peoples Party (DVP).
