  • It will never be as sturdy as it was and will likely deform, which may compromise its ability to seal and hold pressure reliably.

    Epoxy/silica introduces food safety concerns (assuming this is in the path of pressurized, boiling water), and assuming OP is not a person that typically does repairs introduces cost as well. A small pack of epoxy, which is more than enough, is probably like $5-7. I don’t know how much silica is but that’s not necessary, tbf. If OP doesn’t do this kind of stuff often the excess is wasted, essentially, and you’re already at almost 50% of the cost of the replacement part for a chance at a a fix that might not work or be food safe.

    Buy the replacement part






  • This is a new kind of Adblock detection that is being deployed on many blogs, some forums, and other websites and it’s the next generation. AdGuard or uBlock won’t save you because the way it works is outside the scope of those plugins.

    There’s essentially JS that happens before the page render that checks for resolution with fingerprinting servers. If this does not occur you get the error message about html-load.com or content-loader.com or whatever that looks like malware intercepting the page.

    If the page implements the JS poorly (eg the page renders before the checks come back) it’s easily defeated with ublock by just blocking element and selecting the overlay. Though the page usually isn’t fully rendered it’s enough to read the content. Reader mode can often work in this scenario too. But on more competent blogs with actual tech support (like seriouseats.com, fuck you kenji, like you don’t have enough money), it’s implemented more competently and the page won’t render at all prior to the checks coming back.

    As a result a solution is to lie. It’s cumbersome but if you run adguard dns (or maybe pihole, if that can also do dns rewrites, not sure), you can rewrite the offending servers checked for fingerprinting you like:

    api64.ipify.org
    cdn.cookielaw.org
    id5-sync.com
    cdn.id5-sync.com
    dotdash-meredith.solutions.cdn.optable.co
    static.cloudflareinsights.com
    html-load.com
    content-loader.com

    To a null route on your network for all subdomains. Somewhere run a docker and rewrite them to resolve to that docker, run nginx on that docker and basically just have it return 204 to all requests you funnel to it.

    Now those sites run the JS, there is dns resolution, tls handshake, fetch and response, but no fingerprint or analytics. It’s not perfect, the error still occurs 1:5 tries, but closing tab and retrying almost always has the page render fine without issue.

    Just keep in mind that some of these will break other sites (specifically cookielaw.org and lots of shitty shopping sites) especially if you do this lazily and just route to nothing instead of something that can return 204.

    Fuck all advertisers, never turn Adblock off, steal all content, defeat any antiadblock measure, destroy the ad industry because they ruined the world




  • Oh right! In admin console under server>general at the bottom there is a section called “performance”. Under this the first entry is “parallel library scan tasks limit”. Increasing this can significantly improve performance here. If it’s empty it is auto selecting. To that point if you’re running jellyfin in a docker and only allow it access to one core that would seriously limit performance here. Screenshot below, I currently have it set to 2 because I’ve done the “big” scan and I don’t need my cpu hammered when jellyfin does library scans

    Additionally an issue I ran into later: under playback>transcoding enable hardware transcoding must be checked. Trickplay task was taking literal months because even though I had configured igpu transcoding correctly this has to be enabled separately. UX stuff like this is where jellyfin needs more polish; I’m sure there’s debate about this but why would this not default to on once transcoding is enabled? Who knows. Maybe just oversight.






  • Another “I want to have my cake and eat it too” comedian hack.

    No one has ever stopped you from making racist, sexist, transphobic, etc jokes. You want to be able to make them with impunity; in a way where someone can never say “I disagree with what you say”. You demand for freedom of speech to use it in the ugliest way possible and then you receive consequences your gut instinct is to deny that same right to your critics. Coward.

    I’m sure he’s right up there with Dave chappelle and similar folks where he will moan about cancel culture. There is maybe some nuance to this issue for someone who works at Arby’s to pay for a studio apartment they share and gets caught on a bad day in a viral video or something. This is not that and unfortunately those instances let these people weaponize this shit: “it could happen to YOU”. MAGA turds eat it up because they’re always 10 seconds away from calling someone a slur.

    These pricks are already wealthy beyond the wildest dreams of the majority of human beings. If they never earned another dime they’d be fine, except they’d maybe not be able to buy everyone in the family a fully loaded new Mercedes every year anymore. So sad. This rhetoric is therefore deflection to again avoid consequence and silence criticism


  • Interesting. I will say music is the weakest point of jellyfin db. Mine is currently good but I nuked my db for the new db style in 10.11 and created a new db, mainly bc of issues within music library. But this went back to like 10.9 and were probably from me fucking around in the db manually to try and override tags. I’ve since retagged my music as it was just the easier solution (artist ft artist got me all fucked up, I hated having 900 entries for like 1 artist who did frequent collabs)

    https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/issues/15070

    This is the issue thread re the very long scanning after upgrading to 10.11

    Edit: also one thing I learned from the db editing and again from the 10.11 migration is that the jellyfin db can get “stuck” in such a way that nothing I can find will overwrite db entries, even manually opening the db in an sql editor (which makes me think there are hard to find tables I could never track down but db stuff is not my forte so I dunno)


  • I found the link

    “Library scans are expected to take (way) longer in 10.11 because we are now a) properly validating all existing data and b) properly applying concurrency limits. Usually only the first scan after the upgrade takes significantly longer because it will fix some data inconsistencies we can not repair while doing the initial migrations. Any subsequent scan should be faster but if you add a lot of new files it will still take longer than before because of the concurrency limit.”

    https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/issues/15070

    From the thread for people with more realistic media libraries like yours (5-20tb) the initial scan is more like a few hours. However, if you’re like me and hoard shit expect it to potentially take days


  • Do you have music? I don’t know this for sure but I also wonder if music collections slow things down. My music collection is pretty massive (like 40% of my storage) and it’s a shitload of files to index.

    Thankfully I don’t put my books in jellyfin because my ebook/manga library is also pretty massive. If the apocalypse occurs I’m set for the 2-3 days I’d have power after the end of times




  • This took the joy out of everything.

    “Oh you write music? You should make an album and sell it” “oh you cook? You should make a ghost kitchen/foodtruck/marketplace” “oh you do 3d printing? You should model stuff for people or make a print farm” “oh you do open source stuff? Why don’t you work in coding or at least do fiverr coding jobs?” “Oh this home server is cool you should set these up for people for money”

    FUCK YOU

    And then when they find out I just like, post recipes or code or models or whatever online for free because I want to contribute back to the communities that taught me a lot they’re like “you’re crazy”. Maybe I don’t want to fucking monetize everything. Maybe I’m sick of everything being monetized. Maybe I believe information should be free and this hustle culture tech bro bullshit that took over the Internet post 2006-08 or so where everything has to be paywalled or monetized is absolutely cancerous and should be destroyed.

    Our greed will destroy us all
