Anyone know if this affected updates through winget?

You can install the Store and Xbox app, and use Gamepass. I have a friend that does this, after I showed them how.

I’m in the same boat waiting for Linux to be a bit more “feature complete,” for me to daily.

In the mean time, check out W11 Enterprise IoT LTSC. It’s the secret menu item equivalent W11 they don’t wanna sell to consumers. It feels like a fresh W7 install with no AI, no bloat, no bullshit, and can even disable all telemetry. Only comes with Edge and Defender.

massgrave.dev has the iso’s and permanent activators.

Edit: Adding that you can install the App Store and Xbox App to make use of Game Pass.

I know this is a Linux community, but if you’re stuck on Windows for whatever reason still, there is a perfectly viable option.

Windows 11 Enterprise IoT LTSC.

There’s ISOs and permanent activation at: massgrave.dev

It’s basically what Windows should be, and feels like a fresh W7 install. No bloat, no AI, no bullshit. Legit just Edge and Defender, and all telemetry settings can be disabled.

I use it for my daily driver, then every few weeks or months when I see major updates I’m interested in, I hop onto my CachyOS install. I spend a day or so testing to see if everything feels polished/solid enough for me to ditch Windows.

Heavily second this.

Agreed, most comments are miserable, toxic, old man yells at cloud, energy. More and more, so.

Tidal is cheaper and better quality, Deezer is good, too.

Or because they pay artist way less than any one else, while having lower quality audio.

Malicious compliance and use it solely for internal emails.

Lmfao, someone needs to make a short skit of that.

Don’t get too crazy into categorizing your media. Keep it simple with your folders, so Jellyfin can know what the file is then scrape the internet for meta-data.

Media -> Movies -> Example Movie (year) -> Example.movie.file

Media -> Shows -> Example Show (year) -> Season 1 -> Example.show.S01E01.file

Ideally your media downloads will have the name and release year in the folder name already. It knows to ignore or match things like x264, DD.5.1, and release group name.

Ohhh, I think I understand now, they can’t connect to jellyfin because that computer has the VPN on. I thought their question was turning on a VPN to connect to Jellyfin outside their house.

Then yea split tunneling would be a good solution. Set up so only the torrent application uses the VPN. Or that Jellyfin is excluded from the tunnel.

Unfortunately I’m not too up to date on VPNs and which offer that. Perhaps their network equipment could apply the VPN to only the torrent traffic, and then they match the port number used inside the torrent application’s settings?

I think I understand your question. The VPN should let you connect in the exact same method you use when you’re on the same network. Example: connecting to http://192.168.X.X:8096 when local, is exactly how you would with the VPN on.

Unraid is the GOAT for self hosting. An excellent way to learn VMs, Docker, and Linux in general. They have an “app store,” which is community templates for Docker containers, and have all the *arr programs you could want. Drive management is super easy, too.

The only unbelievable part of that movie was the Texas and California alliance.

It’s designed to scale. Plus it’s nifty to be able to add ~3 tags to a docker container and then it’s instantly online and ready to be used.

Think of it as more modular.

I personally used Traefik, but only because I’m a masochist and it would be useful to know in IT workplace.

Traefik + CrowdSec + CowdSec Traefik Bouncer.

Traefik handles the traffic, and said traffic has to get a green light from CrowdSec + Bouncer before it can go anywhere.

The concept of CrowdSec is honestly super awesome.

Reverse proxy with CrowdSec, which has setups specifically for Jellyfin. Docker for everything.

I’d love to be wrong, and them switching the CEO to the CSO from Acti-Blizz-King to prepare for IPO is gonna be just fine. But I bet that CSO was a part of the reason Candy Crushes $ fuckery spread to all their other Acti-Blizz games.

I’d almost bet $ a new EULA eventually pops up that it’s going to sell your data, even old data retroactively.

Ubuntu 6.06 I always come back to Arch now-a-days.
