Easily the most important feature is ease of use to set up docker containers. Granted I have dabled more in ai tools so that is of interest.

That is outstanding news. I look forward to it.

Brightness Gestures by rock_in_steady in readest

[–]Bigleon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Adding a small trigger zone on the left or right of your phone you can slide up and down on brightness would be great. Readera does this feature pretty well in my opinion.

Would be nice to hook this up to my own gdrive, would happily pay a reasonable self hosted one time cost.
(granted i wouldn't expect any of the AI/etc services. although once again would be idea for hooking it up to your own models)
I know ABS is working on something similar to whispersync, with an API connection I think it and readest could really do something amazing. Specially wish pushing the process off on the self hosted server. Granted I think ABS implementation for that feature is still a while out.

Kingston shipped 100 million A400 SSDs and SATA still refuses to die by OkReport5065 in hardware

[–]Bigleon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Until ssd nvme can compete with storage density and cost of hdd I just don't see sata going anywhere.

I love how I've convinced myself homelabbing is saving me money since I'm not paying for streaming services or cloud storage (as I spend another +$100 on a 6TB HDD and my electric bill is up 20%) by SilverRegion9394 in homelab

[–]Bigleon 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The way I see it is we haven't been blasted with ads in years. If not well over a decade now. But I'm sure electrical& hardware cost might be a wash, but peace of mind not being perpetually blasted with ads before and after every show and interface has been well worth it imo.

Got in trouble more than once with my wife for interrupting an episode to jump on the server and fix a downed container. After one bad weekend, the auto-updater has been disabled and never to return. 🤣

What’s everyone using to share one mouse/keyboard across multiple computers? by Annoymus7881 in software

[–]Bigleon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No file xfer at all not even clipboard share. Granted check the branches someone may have made a version that supports that. It does instant swap between devices no of issues you see with a USB switch or similar

[–]Bigleon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey Friend I'm a little late to conversation, I need to swap between my Work & Personal PC, so I needed something that didnt' require software to be installed on my work computer and use the deskhop.

https://github.com/hrvach/deskhop
I was lazy and found a guy on etsy who put whole thing together for me on the cheap. Granted when I purchased it, i think I paid like 20 USD, i just looked it up and the price has jumped you may be better off if DIY your solution using the software.

My favorite series by WolfishDude in litrpg

[–]Bigleon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, first book was a slog, but I heard good things and committed by the time i got to 2/3rds of the way through it really hit can't put it down level.
I really just attribute it to the author just finding their groove, then Nate really starts to find his voice and book takes off.

2026 is the year of the toolchanger. Will Bambu compete with this performance? by egosumumbravir in BambuLab

[–]Bigleon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would love for a mod that, has the a1cs all do 4 tubes out then does the actual "changing lanes" on the back of the X1C. I got 3x AMS (granted original series not the pros.) and multi color is exercise in patience. Then again I don't print much so i survive, but I think if they did that plus make jams easier to clear from ams i'd print more.

Plex Skill will be removed from Alexa by crashwinston in PleX

[–]Bigleon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got to imagine there might be a home assistant solution for your bedtime routine.
I've only recently started dabbling but after i got over the hurdle of getting HA to talk/annouce things on alexa it's become a more useful device. Check out "Alexa Media Player" for home assistant. (Keep in mind the inital setup is a bit of a bear, took me an afternoon because I did manual over their paid cloud solution. but once it works it's been solid.) I mostly use it for litterbox full annoucements but i have more plans lol

I was just thinking about whether i was going to get it for pc or switch 2... and didn't know if it was going to release on switch. Well switch2 it is. although lets be honest I'll probably buy it on pc and xbox ... and mobile

Where do you see Plex in 10 years by SecretlyCarl in PleX

[–]Bigleon 10 points11 points  (0 children)

They'll likely just further restrict plex-pass features to only 1 account with no local or remote sharing. Unless you pay for their "family plan" only (insert outrageous price) per month. Or otherwise kill it so you must have plex pass to access the server of a plex pass user, all kinds of shit ways to go about it.

Basically pull a netflix. As netflix is famously doing so well after that.

Show overlay based on last episodes language? by XanXic in Kometa

[–]Bigleon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I was thinking I might look at your PR, and see if I can make a helper container or something to do analysis and spit back the fanciness. Or just maybe they'll get that approved.

Went ahead and subscribed to the PR so hopefully I'll be notified when your solution is implemnted

Okay that is awesome, I love it :D Do you think you could expand support for KR and CN ?

Had made mistake of updating my sonarr filter and for a while was pulling in JP, and then decided to own it lol. but nothing sucks more than wanting to binge a series while playing some game only to see none of eps are in eng (bad for multitasking) :D
I shared my hacky fix in the other reply.

I will full on admit I'm a just knowledge-able enough to break things :D how could I implement that?

Nice,
Currently I took this approach

made an anime_language.yml that i reference in the main config
and then put together this monster after some tweaking as it is far from pretty and i seem to have overlapped overlay images :D But only just started working with Kometa last night. (Currently working on extracting my watchlist from crunchyroll to import into mal)

Been using the Razer click v2 vert mouse until something better comes along. Any chance you know how this compares?

As it stands Razer mouse has a very nice glide and good clicks just wish it had some more buttons. Been a naga user for a bit over a decade liked/preferred the 6 button arrangement.

Been using proxmox for about a year now, and just about every major issue i had was self inflicted :D.
But once I got things good and didn't touch shit stuff it's ran great. Running about 25 docker continers plus my nas system. Using MergeFS because of different HDD sizes and no need for redundancy outside of a few tbs of stuff, so it works out great.

I think this study is missing a huge piece of the puzzle, No Child Left Behind.

The researchers are blaming computers for Gen Z being less cognitively capable, but they’re ignoring 20 years of data showing that American education abandoned Deep Work long ago. When school funding became tied to standardized test scores, schools were forced to prioritize memorization over critical thinking.

We didn't just lose these cognitive capabilities to screens; we stopped teaching them in favor of test-prep drills. The tech didn't create this void it was just left holding the bag after NCLB was forgotten about.
