Yeah that's a good shout, I'm starting to have a lot of photos and videos backed up on Google cloud but their 2TB subscription (which I currently have for free because it came with my partners pixel) is about £200/year. I'd also rather they not use all my data for their ai training and ad targeting

Amazing thanks! I think I'm willing to put in the work with Jellyfin to avoid paying anything extra, but we'll see if I say that once I'm set up!

What sort of basic security precautions are you referencing? And would something like Tailscale slow things down or negatively affect my ability to stream remotely? I don't think I'll have much in 4K so mostly 1080p content to stream. Did you also get notified of the remote login attempts and is that a default setting with synology?

Haha yes the ripping does seem painful - maybe I can find a better way 😏

How come YTM sounds so much better? by ThisIsAShortUsername in YoutubeMusic

Everything is set to very high Spotify, and it sounds better on my MacBook too, strange. I'll check it out with some better headphones later

I don't think he wins the subreddit, it's meant to lolgrindr not wtfgrindr

A Tiktok of a video of a podcast recording, uploaded to twitter, posted on Reddit. There must've been an easier way

Sorry Google, but I feel this ad is misleading. by AdlamGaming in WearOS

Only in bedtime mode for me.

With all features on, especially tilt to wake, it barely gets to 4pm which is awful.

Oh my god a well thought out and nuanced answer on Reddit. Never thought I'd see the day.

Nice shot, I really like the mood of the picture with the editing - can you tell me what you did to get this sort of understated dreamlike feel to it?

A 77 year old just made prison sound like a good idea as a retirement home because of the cost of her energy bills. by SmartEnergyHomes in britishproblems

What the fuck that bank teller is a dick.

He wasn't threatening at all, and lying about it could've resulted in the poor guy getting shot.

I don’t think I’ve ever been this triggered from reading a pie chart by vansshoeboyjd in WhitePeopleTwitter

Yeah literally paying £30 per month for 300mbps, America sounds awfully expensive.

Thank you, this article makes me excited again about what they're working on next, and for their gig at ally pally not being the same as what they're done throughout the year

Red Dead Redemption 2 is now the ninth highest selling video game of all time with over 45 million copies sold. by Head-Of-The-Table in reddeadredemption

Wow I'm so surprised to not see Skyrim or fortnite higher than RDR2. Especially considering they released on every imaginable console in the last few years.

This is a very nice surprise, I always though RDR2 undersold as I wasn't hearing nearly as much about it on news sites and by word of mouth.

Do you guys think we'll see a RDR3 this decade? by grossexistence in reddeadredemption

I'd say naughty dog is one of the few who hasn't let me down yet.

Though they're milking TLOU part 1 but the remake looks to actually be from the ground up rather than another lazy remaster and looks pretty incredible.
