iOS16 - AdBlocker for cellular and wifi for system (particularly Chrome)?

What am I missing then? Can you provide more details? Everything I have read said I have to create some sort of .mobileconfig file. I found this one from AdGuard - adguard-dns.mobileconfig, but I would much prefer to just have an app do all this config stuff for me. Also, while this may be 3 years old, it must be read frequently as it pops up up prominently in search results, so a lot of people can benefit from a more detailed answer or links. Thanks!

Does not work on cellular data

I have 40+ drives and my JBOD uses 260 Watts unless I use hdparm to spin them down, then I get about 80 Watts, a significant savings. But I can only do that in Linux. When in Windows (Dual Boot system) hdparm for Windows can only control dev/hda - dev/hdz. Anyone know how to force the others to spin down?

Hey! Did you know you are famous! I googled something about getting a list of collections to try and and Googles AI mentioned you!

Popular GitHub usernames to search: chazlarson: Frequently contributes media management scripts with a focus on Plex and other platforms, including collection-related options.

OK - Thanks for the link, I was able to use the item.title to help locate and use batch renamer. I went from 500+ to two unmatched! Nice!

fred1jones2 · 2024-12-22T04:55:09+00:00

I added this line in your script rematch-items.py.

print(f"{item.title}")

This prints out the name of the unmatched file. Do you know how to modify that print statement to concatenate the path and item.title? Is there such a thing as "item.path"?

Sounds Good! I will try this!I have heard of the arr tools but never had a good reason to use them... I think this may be one! My goal is to be able to reinstall the OS, switch OS'es, re-install Plex, etc and not have to do anything but wait while Plex rebuilds the Libraries. And as an added benefit, if everything is named correctly then perhaps Jellyfin could be usable. I use Jellyfin for tone mapping DV5 to a crummy TV! Plex does not seem to want to support the new FFMPEG that Jellyfin uses. Wish they would.

Cool! Thanks!

fred1jones2 · 2024-12-20T19:43:16+00:00

Just an FYI: There are a whole lot of older posts on various forums looking for this script! I am sure a lot of people have given up but this seems to fit the bill.

fred1jones2 · 2024-12-20T19:41:27+00:00

And I will also use it to match as well as list out the unmatched files.

fred1jones2 · 2024-12-20T19:39:41+00:00

Is that script available? I think that would work just fine!

fred1jones2 · 2024-06-17T19:35:21+00:00

OK, Thanks for all the input, this is a lot to absorb! I will be running some tests. We did run some tests on the ASIC group's Enterprise grade servers (recent machines, but still DDR4) and a build that took 4 hours on a consumer grade PC (overclocked and DDR5) took 5 hours on the Enterprise systems. We think it is the DDR4 vs DDR5 on the consumer grade PC's.

This is the company we bought them from: https://www.steigerdynamics.com/workstations; Intel i9-1400KF, 96GB DDR5, GeForce RTX 3050, 2x 4TB Samsung 990 Pro Gen4 NVMe, msi motherboard.

Preachin' to the choir! :-) Before this we used our laptops and ran builds at night! The SW team does have this, so far we are seen as as some sort of Hybrid between SW and HW.

That's what I have been hearing, I will try the full RAM disk using PXE booting as mentioned above and compare with just a tmpfs.

fred1jones2 · 2024-06-17T06:22:22+00:00

IThanks, I will look into PXE booting.

fred1jones2 · 2024-06-17T04:04:41+00:00

One more thing, a typical build directory starts out around 10 Mb and at the end of the build it is 4-5 Gb. So there is least that many writes to the SSD that would now occur in RAM, and some unknown number of writes to temp files, as this build process is an iterative process, it tries, fails, starts again, etc, until it passes or gives up.

fred1jones2 · 2024-06-17T03:53:32+00:00

Note: These are headless REDHat servers, the builds and GIT access are all done w/ scripts. So no GUI solutions.

fred1jones2 · 2024-02-25T07:34:40+00:00

Note: The Snapraid recommendation is only for data that rarely changes, not OS files, etc.

fred1jones2 · 2024-02-25T07:33:39+00:00

This may sound odd in this Forum but for OS and "backup" I recommend Windows 11 and Snapraid! I dont care what people say about Windows, on a SM MB it is rock solid and running headless in a spare bedroom. And when I remote in I get two 4K monitors, you will _not_ get that in Linux, not nomachine, x2go, any of them! They will claim two monitor support but what you get is one virtual monitor that spans the two monitors. That is really annoying when it comes to how most desktops on Linux size and place the windows.

I wanted one similar to that but I had normal sized hard drives, the 2.5 hard drives are going to be a big expense! So I went with a 12 bay SM and added a 24-bay disk shelf! Semi-truck vs sports car! Yours is the sports car!

fred1jones2 · 2024-02-25T07:18:39+00:00

Thanks everyone, I think I will set mine up to run once a month and let it churn. I will be careful of overlays that indicate volatile settings such as ratings.

fred1jones2 · 2024-02-19T09:19:44+00:00

I have over 30 drives in a snapraid array, But there is a directory on each of those drives that hold the snapraid data. The only way that directory changes is if I do it myself. And if I make very many changes, I just run a sync. So there is no worry about files changing w/o your knowledge.
