cantankerous_cashew@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Sources to purchase mp3s?English4·15 days agoI used to buy from Beatport when I was actively djing. Nice because the tracks are available in 320kbps or lossless. No idea how much Beatport’s cut is though
cantankerous_cashew@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•US job openings slip to 7.2 million in July, more evidence the American labor market is cooling11·21 days agoMost are probably ghost jobs. Companies have gotten in the habit of creating fake job postings to fool investors into thinking that they’re still healthy/growing because line must go up. Companies report these numbers to the gov which then makes decisions based on bad information. IMO this practice should be illegal and companies should be fined for posting fake positions
cantankerous_cashew@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Securing a 'public' service for familyEnglish1·1 month agounethical life pro tip, but you can use the free tier of Cloudflare tunnels + Access to accomplish this. While technically against the ToS, I have been doing this with jellyfin for an over a year now, I don’t cache anything, and my overall bandwidth usage is low it’s probably not very noticeable. If I get banned at some point I’ll just create a new free account ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
cantankerous_cashew@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Self-hosted blog - do I need a static IP address?English2·2 months agoSurprised nobody has mentioned cloudflare ddns. If you registered your domain with cloudflare, you can use the api or qdm12’s (author of gluetun) ddns-updater to keep your A/AAAA records up to date.
It’s definitely doable. I run both gluetun & tailscale in separate docker containers on Ubuntu. The trick here is that gluetun should get /dev/net/tun device (basically the default example in the project readme) and tailscale should he configured (via env vars) to run in userspace mode
cantankerous_cashew@lemmy.worldOPto Apple@lemmy.world•Apple Releases First iOS 26 and iPadOS 26 Public Betas (macOS, tvOS, and watchOS too!)1·2 months agoAh yes you’re correct, I misread the Macrumors article, have fixed the post title
cantankerous_cashew@lemmy.worldto Apple@lemmy.world•Apple sues YouTuber who leaked iOS 26’s new “Liquid Glass” software redesign1·2 months agoComedic gold. Jon Prosser has always been a hack job who makes stuff up, gets butthurt when proven wrong, and then disappears until he conjures up more fake news. He’s also a terrible presenter and his videos are cringe. Ironic that the one time he’s right about something he also gets busted for breaking the law
To be fair there is a tvOS app in development but progress is slow because the whole project is maintained by a small handful of volunteers. They’ve put out a call for help and the maintainers post updates here
cantankerous_cashew@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•That's all folks, Plex is starting to charge for sharingEnglish221·5 months agoIt was only a matter of time. Plex is a Series C startup, employs 100+ people, and has taken substantial VC investment. Those investors are expecting exponential returns, and a “one-time lifetime payment” will never sustain that sort of growth
cantankerous_cashew@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Cloudflare Tunnel AlternativesEnglish5·5 months agoYes, unless you use a provider that doesn’t have bandwidth caps; I personally use OVH for that reason
Unethical life pro tip, but I use the free tier of Cloudflare tunnels and Cloudflare access to gate access to my jellyfin instance. This is technically against their TOS but I don’t cache anything and my bandwidth usage is low so it’s probably not too noticeable. I’ll update this post if I get banned at some point 🤡
cantankerous_cashew@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Plex is locking remote streaming behind a subscription in AprilEnglish232·6 months agoSo basically… this is a blatant cash grab, and a nearly 200% one depending on the level of service you pay/paid for. Wonder how long it will be before the lifetime pass is discontinued and everyone gets forcibly moved over to a monthly subscription model

cantankerous_cashew@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•*Permanently Deleted*English261·7 months agoThis perfectly illustrates America’s 2-tiered justice system: one for the wealthy and one for the little people. If I torrent copyrighted material, I risk fines/jail-time. If a big corporation like meta does it, then it’s allegedly “fair use”. To be clear, what OpenAI is requesting isn’t remotely close to the original intended purpose of fair use. Worst part is that small/independent creators will (if they aren’t already) be most adversely impacted by such selective application of copyright law
cantankerous_cashew@lemmy.worldto Open Source@lemmy.ml•What projects does the opensource world lack1·7 months agoA self-hosted photo/video viewer which presents itself as an Open Directory that maps closely to the underlying file system and also includes the ability to view images and stream videos. If videos are too large/incompatible with the user’s browser, they should be transcoded on the fly (optionally with the gpu). Genuinely surprised something like this doesn’t exist
cantankerous_cashew@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Least terrible domain registrarsEnglish6·7 months agoSame, I also use Cloudflare dns, tunnels, and pages. Having these all in the same place makes it easy to deploy/keep track of everything

This isn’t a job many people want to do, doesn’t pay well, and requires ungodly amounts of patience
cantankerous_cashew@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Looking for a VPS. I don't know who to choose.English7·7 months agoI use OVH. Reasonable prices, very reliable, and no bandwidth caps
