You’re absolutely right, I couldn’t agree with you more. My bad on “judging a book by its cover”.

I probably should tone down the old curmudgeon stuff. I’d just recently realized how much I missed very good content by Mentour Pilot just because his titles and thumbnails were also very YouTube algorithm-y, but his content is fantastic. Just need to accept this is how good content avoids being buried under all the brainrot junk.

Thanks for the reminder, cheers.

I actually do know Scott’s stuff very well and respect him alot, ever since his KSP days. But this title is still pretty click baity, and I’m rather disappointed that he along with a lot of other good YouTubers all have been increasing the baity titles along with the Face + outrageous background thumbnail thing lately just to work the algorithm.

No there isn’t. The Moon’s gravity is very lumpy and there are very few stable orbits. It’s extremely unlikely anything passive will orbit the moon more than a couple weeks. This is stupid clickbait.

The universe does seem rather badly designed these days

Fuck

Different devices. iOS, android, AppleTV. Most of it is likely Apple’s fault for the limited options in the ecosystem tho.

It’s not a transcoding power issue. It’s a UI consistency and usability issue. With every device having a slightly different UI, with some apps having issues if playing back natively and some needing transcoding, the experience is inconsistent and frankly doesn’t pass the “wife acceptance factor” test, or the “let your friends use it without needing to handhold them through regular troubleshooting for their particular device” test.

I still don’t use Plex and exclusively use Jellyfin, but it’s still a hard sell to non technical users. Plex has much more polish.

It is…..if you use a computer. Their AppleTV app still looks like some random coder’s pet project with random playback issues.

Yes. Your machines would have one main IP address, and one virtual IP address that would be assigned to either machine depending on the priority or health check status. That IP can be on the same physical interface, or a separate one. It’s very flexible, pretty standard config for high availability setups.

Keepalived to set up a floating IP between two proxy hosts. The VIP is where the traffic points to, the two hosts act as active/passive HA.

I think the universal consensus is that outside of a very specific use case: multiple VDI desktops that share the same image, ZFS dedupe is completely useless at best and will destroy your dataset at worst by causing to be unmountable on any system that has less RAM than needed. In every other use case, the savings are not worth the trouble.

Even in the VDI use case, unless you have MANY copies of said disk images(like 5+ copies of each), it’s still not worth the increase in system resources needed to use ZFS dedupe.

It’s one of those “oooh shiny” nice features that everyone wants to use, but will regret it nearly every time.

Neat……but dnsdist would be my go to tool for doing this instead. It’s actually built for it, has more options, and probably doesn’t have as many host networking docker deployment limitations.
