Plex can be set to auto delete. You can set it to delete after something has been watched (after a delay if you want), or to keep a pre-set number of items (e.g. only keep the five latest episodes of show X) or a combination.
Just make sure you set up the *arrs to not re-download the thing that Plex auto deletes.
I’m a hoarder so I keep a lot, but anything that’s time-sensitive like current affairs shows, I delete after watch and set to only keep the latest three episodes.
If you’re just interested in connections (and don’t care about packet inspection) you can use Little Snitch (paid) or LuLu (FOSS).
Actually, all the Objective-See Foundation security tools are great and target specific classes of vulnerabilities, like LuLu for outgoing network connections, RansomWhere for detecting ransomwear by looking for encryption events, Oversight that monitors you cameras and microphones and a bunch of other really small, but really useful security utilities. Better than running a shady antivirus that’s going to suck up loads of resources and rely on signatures.
The service I used to use shut down about six months ago and I’m yet to find a good replacement. So if anyone wants to put some words in my mouth (ugh, not sure I should have gone with that phrase) I’ll gladly accept. Seems like most of the “recommended” ones are referrals to scams, or have weird limitations (like not making the M3Us available, so you can’t hook in to Plex, for example).
Yep, exactly what I do. Has the advantage of also blocking in-app ads and some of Apple’s data collection. It also gives you complete control over what you block and don’t block, lets you see stats etc. Can’t really be beat.
But when you see a reply from a small account with few interactions high up under a popular post, you’re still going to know it’s a paying simp.
It’s like putting a clown nose whilst wearing your nazi uniform. People can still see the uniform, but now they also think you’re a clown.
Hopefully the native version, coming soon, will be a bit smoother than the pwa and have better integration with the OS.
It’s probably the best pwa I’ve ever used, but it’s still a pwa. And the native version will still just be a wrapper on the pwa, but it has the potential to be better.
Homepage is great. I like that you get little snippets from the apps it links through but is more customisable than something like Heimdall which does similar. It’s become my go-to having tried pretty much every other dashboard out there over the years.
No Linux or MacOS support? Presumably that means just for their software and it will still present as a normal keyboard, so will still technically work?
Aye, sounds about right.
Matey boy assumed the rest of the world is as wasteful as the US is.
I’ve literally never even seen, or even heard of, a gas mower. Almost all of them are electric (and our electricity mix isn’t perfect, but is better than a lot of places) with the odd one being petrol for especially large gardens, but that’s increasingly rare.
Why the fuck would anyone use gas? That would be awful. Do you mean natural gas from the mains? Hydrogen? Bottled Calor gas? I’ve absolutely no idea what a gas mower could even be and searching is giving zero results that make sense.
Gas? Why does it use gas to maintain a lawn?
You don’t even need a loyalty card at that retailer. Your payments get sold by the payment processing companies to data harvesters, including Google.
That’s what the bowls are for. To catch any drips.
Or set up Overseerr so she can request it herself. If you’re on a fast connection you can go from request to it being in Plex in about five minutes if set to auto approve.
Lots of sites do it on the email fields for some reason. I’m far more likely to miss type my email address, twice, than my password manager is likely to somehow complete it wrong.
The biggest red flag is when they try and stop you from pasting your password (or anything else for that matter) breaking password managers.
There are years-long arguments on social media with companies who do this with actual security experts telling them they’re hurting security (including referencing organisations like the UK’s National Cyber Security Centre) and their only response is “we don’t allow pasting for security reasons” but they can never explain how it helps security - because it doesn’t. It drives me mad.
and now Google of all companies wants to lock down the whole internet?
Of all the companies, Google always seemed the most likely, both to want to and to be successful. They’ve tried before, sometimes in small ways, sometimes in larger more obvious ways (AMP, the implementation of content filtering in Chrome etc.).
They’re the world’s largest advertising and data harvesting company. It’s their business. Of course they want to lock the internet down to serve their goals of learning as much about you as possible and using that data to shove ads in your face.
Whenever using any Google/Alphabet product you have to ask yourself, “am I ok with this thing I’m about to use being built by the world’s largest advertising company?”. The answer should be “no” more than it is “yes”, particularly for things that have access to lots of your data, like web browsers, phones, home speakers etc.
That’s what’s great about all these companies. They take credit for, and try to derive value from, things they didn’t actually create. Reddit keeps on talking about “their” data that was created by users, for free, and moderated by other users, also for free. Yet it’s somehow theirs and they can sell it?
Twitter didn’t invent hashtags. They were user created annd eventually incorporated in to the service.
These services add very little value, but they believe they add it all.
Meanwhile Porsche are developing an even tighter integration allowing you to control parts of the car through the CarPlay interface.
There’s an article on Apple Support about importing mail here: https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/icloud/mmf9877972f7/1.0/icloud/1.0
I think this is a Thunderbird issue. They are separate in Mail.app. It even allows you to use a catch-all rule if you’re the domain owner. Maybe you could set up smart mailboxes (or whatever the Thunderbird equivalent is, I’ve not used it in probably 15 years)?
