  • Although I have my issues with plex, jellyfin has its own problems:

    • STILL can’t clear out the TS transcoded files automatically. So if you watch a bunch of TV episodes on a weekend, your jellyfin container will run out of space and break.
    • STILL can’t handle subtitles properly. I swear, this must be jellyfin’s Waterloo.
    • jellyfin cannot demux 5.1 and present stereo sound on certain streams. I think this is a tooling issue. But it’s low level enough that I can handle it manually with mkvtoolnix myself on the few cases it happens.

  • Flashing the phone’s bootloader and image is still done with adb and fastboot, but unlocking the bootloader is by now pretty much done with tools only made for windows.

    Mostly this is because the exploits use factory flashing tools provided by manufacturers, which are nearly always windows.




  • I just snapshot the parent lxc. The data itself isn’t part of the container at any level, so if I bung up compose yml or env, I can just flip it back. The only real benefit is that all my backups are in the same place in the same format.

    Like I’m not actually opposed to managing docker in one unit, I just haven’t got there yet and this has worked so far.

    If I were to move to a single platform for several docker, what would you suggest? For admin and backups?

    I use individual lxc for each docker compose so I don’t have to revert 8 services at once if I need to restore.

    I would also argue that an alpine lxc runs in 22mb ram by itself … Significantly smaller footprint on disk and in memory. But most importantly, lxc can actually share memory space effectively, one doesn’t need to reserve blocks of ram.
