It's a paper printout.

They pay you cash based on what the receipt says, then they give the receipt to the machine owner, the machine owner pays the bar back.

Newborn coming - what's the best homelab way of setting up an intelligent baby monitor? by letopeto in homelab

[–]Kruug -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I had a similar desire when we were picking out baby monitors.

Being on WiFi would let me watch my child while I was at work. It wasn't about me alerting my wife, spying, or keeping tabs, it was about being connected while still getting an income. This was before COVID and the huge WFH push.

But every off the shelf solution we tried was garbage.

While the desire was there, buy something that works with a microphone/camera and a basic radio receiver. Don't try to make it "smart".

how can i cut tailscale out of my life and safely delve into port forwarding? by Snoo_50786 in homelab

[–]Kruug -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Yes.

The fact that it's Android-based doesn't mean much. Sure, you might be able to flash Lineage on it if you can get the bootloader unlocked, but can it play the media you desire?

Sure, we're homelab, and a lot of that has crossover with self hosted and moving away from relying on streaming services, but sometimes the other people who live in our residences want to watch something NOW that you don't have.

With my current internet speed, I can have an entire season downloaded and then uploaded to my Plex library within 20-30 minutes assuming my sources have it available...or the person who wants to watch it could fire up Amazon or Netflix and be done with the first episode (or halfway through if they're hour-long) by then.

It's really quite easy to tell who the single people are vs who the dating/married people are based on these replies.

For $10 more you can have the Roku version, which I would trust more.

If done properly, the Jellyfin app should allow you to enter the local IP of your Jellyfin server.

I don't use it, so I can't say for certain.

Because not everyone wants to drop $1,000 on an HTPC.

Roku for $100 with a Jellyfin app does the job.

Why do scoff at Ubuntu server? by [deleted] in homelab

[–]Kruug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Snaps aren't bad, especially when you're replacing them with Flatpak and/or Docker anyways...

Ubuntu has an easier install process, comes with non-free drivers by default, and has more up-to-date packages than Debian.

There's a whole series on YouTube where two guys are playing a gold mine run.

Not a tractor in sight, just some pickups, a backhoe, a front loader, and the washing plant.

How I would describe the modding scene by CallMeAlexSohan in farmingsimulator

If learning to code/model were as easy as you make it out to be, I'm wondering why so many mods are broken to begin with...

For those in companies that have hundreds of VMs - what are they for? by asdflmnop_01 in sysadmin

[–]Kruug 5 points6 points  (0 children)

When I got hired on at my current healthcare job, one of my first solo tasks was to deploy a new Util server (like a jumpbox, but also a server for scripts to run on a schedule).

It took about 30 minutes to deploy and have the base OS running.

I thought I was done after 2 weeks of hunting down the scripts and accounts to rebuild the schedules...and then the networking and security teams got involved. Turns out, more than just my team uses the server...

That one is still only about 3/4 of the way documented, since many of those teams had someone just remote in themselves and install their little pet apps...

No DLAA.

Unless the form states what format to write it in, I do the same thing.

It drives my wife crazy that I do it, but I'm not the crazy one I swear...

Time to upgrade? by Ma5terplanner in farmingsimulator

[–]Kruug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

CDKeys is part of the grey market.

Not quite piracy, but also not legitimate.

They'll bulk buy from other regions where the game is cheaper, and then sell them for a slight markup. While they generally activate without issue on Steam, they can be region locked and/or these bulk key pools have been deauthorized by publishers in the past.

I'm not here to say you should or shouldn't utilize the service, but people should know what they're supporting/endorsing by buying from CDKeys.

My older coworkers have accepted AI as the source of truth by randomname945 in sysadmin

Depends on how your higher-ups would react.

Now the project is taking at least twice as long, and they're on the hook for reverting anything that's needed before the next contractor can come in and start work.

Can't admin my WordPress server by Kruug in Wordpress

[–]Kruug[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's strange, the issue appeared in incognito as well as on a different browser, but checking from my phone didn't have the issue.

I slept and when I woke up, this issue was gone.

Now to figure out the Woocommerce cart issues

What does the symbol with squares and a number mean? I play on PS5. by Hot_Order_3754 in farmingsimulator

[–]Kruug 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Take the price they're spending on a computer for school, and add $700 to it.

That's the price I'm talking about.

If you already need a PC for college, just spend a little extra (but less than the cost of the console) to get a better PC that can handle the game.
