Hi all,

I'm building a media center PC and am looking for a tv-controller friendly UI for YouTube. My best case scenario is basically Smarttube as is available on Android TVs. It is a perfect app, but I believe it's not attainable on desktop.

I'm willing to use either Windows or Linux, and have a moderate level of competence in the latter.

I'd prefer that it function well with Kodi. Is the Kodi YouTube plugin any good? Another option I'd like to explore is Freetube or Invidious, but a surface level amount of research hasn't shown me any TV-like UIs.

Previously, I've used a spoofed user agent to trigger YouTube's native TV UI, but it's pretty shit and I'd prefer to not go there directly in any case.

Any insight is appreciated, even if it's a suggestion to post this to another community. Thanks in advance.

Hi all,

I'm looking for a FOSS app to track some health data.

Nothing crazy, just to track some chronic back pain and see how it trends while also keeping track of when I take pain meds and when I exercise.

Thanks!

Just switched over my windows 10 gaming rig to PopOS, and have gotten it to work pretty well, with some minor bug squashing.

However, one bit of functionality from Windows that I haven't been able to reproduce is the ability to wake the computer from sleep when I turn on my Bluetooth PS5 controller.

My Bluetooth card is PCI, and I've located the hardware address using "bluetoothctl list" but from there don't really know what to do.

Some topics online have suggested going into the sys/bus/PCI/devices directory and finding a /power/wakeup setting, but I can't figure out which of the "0000:00:whatever's" correlate to my Bluetooth card, if I'm even in the right place at all.

Another thing I'm not sure I understand is pop's sleep settings. It seems to be either monitor off or suspend. I feel like what I want may not be possible from full suspend and there is often an intermediate sleep setting on other OSs?

Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thank you.

I've recently installed tailscale as a plugin on my Unraid NAS with the *arr suite and random other things on it.

I was under the impression that once I had everything set up, I would be able to access my LAN services the exact same way remotely as if I was at home connected to WiFi, specifically with their local 192.168.1.x:xxxx addresses.

What I've found is that I can't do that with the local addresses, but tailscale provides me with a separate external address that I can use with the proper port numbers for the Unraid containers, which I've added via the subnet router function, although I don't totally understand how that works tbh.

Beyond that, I have a raspberry pi that runs home assistant, and I expected to be able to access that as well, but haven't been able to figure that out. Must I install tailscale on that device as well? I thought that by using my NAS as an exit node, I'd be able to get to it.

Pardon my ignorance and thank you for your help.

I'm pro sex work, however:

I have mixed feelings about the current ubiquity of online sex work like onlyfans. In theory I've definitely got nothing against it but I'm worried that a lot of young women are faced with shitty economic prospects vs potentially lots of money on onlyfans. The alternatives are so poor sometimes that it feels like coercion.

I just wish young people had better options all together.

"It's like relying on unpaid labor when the company has nearly a billion dollars in revenue," he added. Reddit reported revenue of $804 million in 2023, according to an earlier filing.

It's not like that, it is that.

Anyone who thinks this is remotely possible or a good idea has no idea what healthcare providers actually do on a day to day basis- especially in inpatient settings like hospitals

Never seen my exact inner monologue as a poem before. Besides the Ativan. I could use some Ativan.

Until the Dems block a supreme court vote and steal a justice, significantly altering the course of American history and jurisprudence, you don't get to both sides this particular issue.

Ideally on F-droid. I've been a user of wunderlist and any-do but would like to go FOSS.

Any suggestions? Thanks!

Time. Crushes are naturally a temporary infatuation. They pass given time. Have fun with the fantasies, but I personally would not suggest trying to actually hit on her.

It's poor form to hit on people in their work places. If she initiates, that's one thing, but I wouldn't try anything otherwise.

Hi all,

I've recently built a unRAID based NAS / Media acquisition (*Arr suite) machine that I'm really happy with, but I need help filling my knowledge gaps in networking and security.

I have all the relevant containers ran with docker. The only container behind a VPN is qbittorrent. The only containers which are accessible remotely are Jellyfin, and jellyseerr, which are accessed via cloud flare tunnel. I use strong UN/password combinations for access to those services, within the apps themselves. No ports are open through my router.

I've seen a lot of talk of reverse proxies and ssl certificates but don't really understand their function, or if the cloud flare tunnel replaces those functions.

I've heard of tailscale as a solution but I'm not able to install anything on computers which I'll be accessing the content.

Would appreciate advice or resources to learn from. Thanks!

I think what a lot of people mean by that is "you always have to make other people feel as if they're wrong"

Official answer: no, there are microscopic fibers of mold probably all throughout the cheese

Real answer: if you've got a normal immune system it's probably fine

I'm all in on Lemmy. Haven't tried many others.
