Getting TLS certs will be complicated

I just use Let's Encrypt with a wildcard domain


same certs for public and private facing domains. I'm sure this isn't best practice, but it's mostly just for me so I'm not too worried :)

Yeah I don't expose Jellyfin over the Internet, so it doesn't matter for me, and wouldn't work at all over WAN (unless VPN'd to home network).

Also, it's all reverse proxied, and there's nothing preventing having two Jellyfin hostnames, e.g., jf-local.mydomain.com and jf-public.mydomain.com.

Another fun trick you can play is to use a private IP on your public DNS records. This is useful for Jellyfin on Chromecast for instance


it uses 8.8.8.8 for DNS lookup (and ignores your router settings), so it wants a fully qualified domain name. But it has no problem accessing local hosts, so long as it's from 8.8.8.8's record.

I have set up local DNS entries (with Pi-Hole) to point to my srrver, but I don't know if it possible to get certs for that, since it is not a real domain.

So long as your certs are for your fully qualified domain there's no problem. I do this, as do many people


mydoman.com is fully qualified, but on my own network I override the DNS to the local address. Not a problem at all


DNS is tied to the hostname, not the IP.

The only flaw in Corel's logic was that as soon as you're running Linux, you lose all desire to run WordPerfect, and develop an irresistible need to align yourself with vim or emacs...

how do I put this?


not particularly noteworthy for a lot of folks...

Track stands! Not a contradiction to your statement at all though: you need to be moving just ever so slightly.

With a fixie it's easy, because you can pedal forwards and backwards in tiny amounts. With a freewheel, it's trickier but you get the hang of it with practice. Ideally you'll have an incline, so you pedal forward to go forward, and ease up to slide back. After some practice I can use the raised reflective paint from e.g. crosswalks as the "incline." This miniscule motion is enough to balance


and like you said, it ain't the angular momentum that does it.

I think you need to include energy cost in the preparation stage. Bread requires a hot oven, which is a real amount of electricity


it's close to $0.40/kWh where I live. From this link it says that a bread maker uses only .36kWh, but an electric oven would be more like 1.6kWh. So bakita single loaf of bread, you end up with a not insubstantial fraction of the total cost going to heating the oven.

Of course, many bulk foods require heat, so it gets a little sticky this way. Oats/oatmeal probably wins out here, as you can just soak them overnight.

Right


plenty of fog, but not a lot of salty spray.

My university was pretty zen about this


essentially, "don't use your own access point/router please. But if you do, please talk to your resident (University employed) student IT rep and they can probably help you set it up correctly."

...but was it the "Windows Uninstall" button...or the "format /dev/sda1 as ext4" button?
