  • I recently got a Deuter travel wallet (Deuter is a German Backpack/Hiking equipment manufacturer, and their stuff is usually very well made. I’ve had the same trekking backpack for 10 years now, and the way it’s looking, I’ll have it for another 30 at least).

    Tbh the wallet is not very stylish… But it’s very well made, lots of slots for card, cash, and even passport, and if it does get grungy, you can throw it in the washing machine.

    There’s also a smaller option if this one is too big.




  • Haha. Might have slightly exaggerated. But only slightly.

    The Proxmox host in question has a 1Gbit connection to the NAS. (Unfortunately. The other hosts don’t have a GPU, but SPF+… Oh well, can’t have everything.)

    At some point in the last couple of months, it must have been damaged, and negotiated down to only 100Mbit. This must roughly have coincided with the Jellyfin 10.11 update, since I remember thinking that it must be the cause, due to close proximity of update and first issues.

    Anyways. For basically everything in my library, 100Mbit is fine. Streaming an episode NAS->Jellyfin and Jellyfin->TV at the same time basically never saturates the link.

    BUT, from what I’ve gathered by digging through Jellyfin issues and PRs, there’s a separate issue where Jellyfin will pull the episode, and if you need subtitles extracted from the episode file server-side (to transcode them in, if the clients can’t play them), it will at the same time pull the episode AGAIN, and together with the Jellyfin->TV direction, that’s frequently enough that it saturates the link.

    Symptoms is (was) either a 20-30s wait before the episode would start playing, or complete freeze.

    However, I believe this particular issues has been solved for a while. I’m not sure, because I instead opted for the Subtitles Extractor Plugin, which runs nightly and pre-fetches all the subtitles and stores them on the Jellyfin VM itself.

    Where it was still noticeable though was if one of [Library Scan/Trick-play Extraction/Subtitle Extraction/Media Segment Scan] ran while playing an episode, the server would completely lock up.

    Long story short: cable swapped, 1Gbit, all issues gone.




  • Can’t speak to that, I’m not involved. All I know is that,

    • Jellyfin server gets significant upgrades in subtitle capabilities and performance,
    • Jellyfin AdroidTV just released an RC that finally includes direct play for ASS/SSA subtitles,
    • and on Monday, I FINALLY resolved a hardware issue (faulty cable) that made my Jellyfin almost unusable whenever ASS/SSA needed to be played (and only in that situation. Fun!)

    So yeah, I don’t know or really care about leadership change, I just know it’s gonna run like a rocket now 😄



  • It may be initially inconvenient, but you can choose a bank that offers 2FA/TAN beyond the smartphone app.

    Not sure what healthcare apps you mean. There’s lots of categories, so won’t comment without clarification.

    Same for employers tbh. Would love an example. (Besides: work apps can’t be forced on your private phone in most places.)

    I live in “modern society” and do own a smartphone, but I’m aware that it’s a convenience, not a necessity.


  • I have multiple young-ish (30s) friends that don’t own a phone (not just smartphone; any phone), and basically all people I know above 80 years don’t own one either.

    You can absolutely live a perfectly fine and good life without a smartphone. You’re just drawing the line where it’s convenient for you.

    Or let’s put it in more familiar words…

    [Owning a smartphone] is not “participating in society”, this is participating in, contributing to, and directly benefitting from the very thing they’re complaining about.








  • Wer glaubt, Zwiebeln könne man in unterschiedlich Größen würfeln

    Ich versteh es nicht ganz. Meinst du, weil die seitlichsten Stücke nur Würfel-“Teile” sind?

    die Distribution der Schälzeit logarithmisch ist

    Haha :D Musst du aber leider trotzdem auch vor dem Mixer machen ^^


  • Ok, krass. Dann bist du da einfach empfindlicher bzw. ich unempfindlicher.

    Ich hab früher mit reeelativ scharfen Messern auch immer getränt. Seit ich ein wirklich SCHARFES Messer habe (was auch regelmäßig gewetzt wird usw) hab ich das vielleicht noch bei 3 Zwiebeln im Jahr (von… Ka… 400?). Daher geb ich das immer als Empfehlung. Aber klar, Allheilmittel gibt es wohl einfach nicht.


  • Es gibt kein Küchengerät, was ich mehr hass zu säubern also einen Blender/Mixer.Selbst in der Spülmaschine nimmt der viel Platz weg und braucht ewig, danach richtig trocken zu werden.

    Ne Zwiebel ist in 30s geschält und geschnitten, und wenn dein Messer ansatzweise scharf ist, weinst du dabei auch nicht.
