I'm not the developer, but I thought I'd share this with the community. A pretty cool tool which reads Lidarr data and asks Spotify's API to return artist recommendations based on that data.

Swiftfin doesn't do audio for some reason and VLC doesn't reliably recognize UPmP.

I don't consider myself very technical. I've never taken a computer science course and don't know python. I've learned some things like Linux, the command line, docker and networking/pfSense because I value my privacy. My point is that anyone can do this, even if you aren't technical.

I tried both LM Studio and Ollama. I prefer Ollama. Then you download models and use them to have your own private, personal GPT. I access it both on my local machine through the command line but I also installed Open WebUI in a docker container so I can access it on any device on my local network (I don't expose services to the internet).

Having a private ai/gpt is pretty cool. You can download and test new models. And it is private. Yes, there are ethical concerns about how the model got the training. I'm not minimizing those concerns. But if you want your own AI/GPT assistant, give it a try. I set it up in a couple of hours, and as I said... I'm not even that technical.

I have a Qnap DAS. It is set up in a raid5 configuration. The problem is that each time I reboot my machine (ubuntu 24.04 LTS), the path of the DAS will auto-increment up by one.

For example the path will automatically go from media/raid57/medialib to media/raid58/medialib. That means I need to manually redo all file paths and then re-scan my entire media library for Jellyfin, each time I reboot my machine (which is like 2-3 times a month).

It is getting pretty annoying and I'm wondering if someone knows why this happens and what I can do to fix it.

I use yt-dlp to download and the YT metadata plug-in for metadata. But idk how to actually organize the actual files?

• Do you create a separate library?
• Do you put it in the shows library?
• How do you separate videos by channel?
• Is there a way to auto-download artwork for each channel?

I live alone and read books. I mostly read them at home but I'd like to go out and read. The thing is I have really bad adhd so it involves not just my Kindle but I also listen to the audiobook at the same time or I can't stay focused on the book. I just listen to it on my phone with earbuds so it's hopefully not a huge deal but it can’t be too loud or chaotic.

Where can I go out and "read" besides a coffee shop or the library. The library isn't convenient and it's a little weird going to coffee shops over and over again. I live in a big city so I'm sure there are other places I just don't know what they are.

Any suggestions?

Most shows that have Dolby Atmos don’t really do a great job of leveraging its capabilities but some do an amazing job.

Which movies/shows do you think have scenes where Dolby Atmos really adds to your viewing experience?

I’m thinking something similar to Yattee / Invidious.

iOS is preferable.

I’m curious what plugins people like the most and find the most useful.

Asking because I got it and I'm not really sure what to do. So, I wanted to see what strangers on the internet are going to do.

I don't have an existing e-trade account and I'm not super excited about creating one for the singular purpose of this IPO. But, if I can quickly make a couple of bucks and then cash out, that might be worth it.

Are there rules to when you cash out if you get in at the IPO price? Could I buy-in at the $30-ish/share price and couple that with a trailing stop-loss order? Maybe this isn't the right Lemmy community to ask this, but I figured I'd give it a shot.
