this one, OP. no need to introduce the horror that’s a:

• hosted app (why?!)
• client app is electron crapware
• the client app doesn’t even have full functionality, you have to use the web UI for some tasks

edit: I’m obviously speaking about the bitwarden/vaultwarden horror. keepassXC is none of them things.

I used enpass for years and was a happy user. one day it prompted me for some re-authentication bullshit security theater. although in that instant it was an easy task, took me all of 10 seconds, it demonstrated a scary amount of power they had as I couldn’t bypass it and access my data. from that point on, its days were numbered.

the second issue is the export functionality that was seriously lacking and I had to resort to 3rd party converter tools to convert it to keepassXC; no way that flew by their QC, it had to be intentional.

well if tanaka is their shidoshi then they shoud show us the dim-mak

kodi and its derivatives are not something you should be using. it’s shit software on so many levels and we should burn it in the deepest volcanos we got.

try one of these:

1. run lineageOS TV (konstakang images) on it and install regular ATV apps for the services mentioned. so, like googletv except there’s no spying and ads and shit.

2. create a normal linux box that has a DLNA sink e.g. using macast. there’s no remote control, you use your android/iOS device to send it stuff, like movie from Jellyfin or a youtube video, and it plays it back and allows some control (pause, play, rew/ff, etc)

3. dedicated Jellyfin box; same as 2) but boots right into jellyfin client. it can be run in TV mode where it reacts to only up/down/left/right/enter/back, via gamepad or remote controller. if yours isn’t recognised, you can emulate it with InputRemapper.

not familiar with how twitch does stuff.

you also have the option of installing a normal raspi distro and then using a wireless keyboard and mouse/touchpad to run it, but I am of the opinion that once the device gets placed by the TV, it loses all keyboard and mouse privileges and should only be operated via the TV’s remote.

is it indians hidden under the desk makin the pizzas?

yeah, there has to be an “…or else” component

none of these fucks are describing reality when they’re speaking. their diatribes are directed at FOMO-ridden financiers, listening to their bloviating rhymes with half of one ear.

a simple shorthand to keep in mind, everytime they’re talking about AI, think “my dick”. that’s what he’s doing. “my dick is so stupendously vast, I pity those poor creatures about to be ravaged by Him, oh the humanity!”

using laptops as a forever-plugged-in device (regardless if workstation or server) isn’t the greatest idea. as an intermediary solution, like until you have something more permanent in place, sure. otherwise, look elsewhere.

limiting battery charge isn’t available on all laptop models and is aimed at preserving the battery’s functionality; it doesn’t solve the issue of a forever charged and never emptied battery. on the other hand, removing the battery on a lot of models limits their performance, significantly.

what is a viable solution is if you get a laptop board that runs at full power without battery, you can remove the board from the laptop, retrofit it with better cooling and additional storage (mini-PCI or M.2 to SATA adapters) and you end up with an energy-efficient server. but that requires a lot of work and is not something recommended for non-enthusiasts.

in short, sell it or swap it for something more adequate.

do you have a ballpark figure of potential savings in $/€ per annum? and for what hardware? I remember calculating something similar and I don’t think I broke $20 in total, so promptly forgot about it.

not a plex user but someone buried the lede here… to me, this is the neon sign that screams GTFO:

we noticed that you’ve accessed libraries in the past

what business of yours is it to notice my private comings and goings?! what other actionable intel do y’all keep in your logs?! bye!
