Selfhosted@lemmy.world•What's Your Ebook Automation PipelineEnglish
1·2 days agoI use Audiobookshelf as the app support is great (allows downloading offline versions and progress syncs when you reconnect to internet). This works amazingly well with my Boox Palma 2 since it runs android.
I don’t download a ton of books, so I just have some simple Python scripts for organizing the content.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Self Hosting- Security recommendationsEnglish
2·2 days agoI am certain this is an area my self hosted solutions lack, but still happy to share.
For me accessibility is the most important, and I have family that’s not technically savvy, so vpns/Wireguard arent great for my use case. So I use a reverse proxy to expose certain apps and have fail2ban configured to block/ban ips that misbehave. This essentially blocks people trying to guess accounts and I’ve been toying with some ratelimiting. However, as many will say, this is not a very secure system and I should monitor my local traffic more to be aware of bad actors.
At the end of the day though it’s really a battle of ease vs security. Reverse proxies provide easier access, but more risk compared to things like vpns. Also, SSH should be setup for key only (no password) and should never be exposed to the public internet (so no reverse proxy).

1·2 days agoI’ve been tempted by things like authentik, but how does that work for things like apps and tv sticks (roku / Chromecast)? Or does it really only work for browser based applications?
I believe everyone is talking about “Buzz Lightyear of Star Command”, an animated tv show about the exploits of Buzz Lightyear.
If you watch the show, it more closely aligns with Buzz’s background details from the Toy Story movies compared to the 2022 Lightyear movie. Its believed that Pixar didn’t like the animated show because they didn’t make it, so Lightyear rewriting who “Buzz Lightyear” really was makes more sense from that context.
I personally feel the the show was better for leaning into the kinda campiness it had and feel like Lightyear would have benefitted from drawing on that show. I don’t think anyone wanted a more gritty version of Buzz and it makes the Lightyear movie seem disconnected from the Toy Story universe.
Edit: Also people use the fact that it’s not on Disney+ as evidence that someone at Disney has it out for that show.
Its even hard to find on the high seas
I think it’s silly to think that this has nothing to do with pokemon. Palworld basically came out of nowhere and made the pokemon game a lot of people have been asking for. I haven’t played a Pokémon game in years because they felt held back from modern game design.
I’ll admit it has similarities to Ark, but it’s a lot more PvE and approachable, not to mention the creature design and capture mechanics.
I mean, they had a whole award ceremony for them at the end of the movie, so a lot of people were aware of who destroyed the death star. Seems kinda likely that the information could be found out.

News@lemmy.world•Official Guide Outlines How to Avoid Sexual Camera Angles of Women Athletes
5·9 days agoHonestly the examples seem kinda terrible to me. There are a lot of examples that are common for men competing and a lot of the suggestions seem to indicate avoiding shots that include women’s lower half at all (preferring the camera zoom in on their upper half).
The worst offenders are the pole vaulting one, that’s a classic shot in the sport. Additionally they say not to take shots of women in the starting position of a race.
While I understand there is a concern about sexualization, I think the fact that they gendered this guidance points to the larger problem. Taking a photo of someone’s ass, regardless of gender, isn’t valuable to the sport or athlete, but action shots of an athlete competing should pretty much always be fair game.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Just to get this straight Odysseus angered the gods by just trying to survive the only way he could at the time?
7·9 days agoIt depends on how you look at it. Even before leaving for the Trojan war, he was told he would be lost on the journey home. But during the course of events trying to get home he does piss off Posiedon by blinding his son (a cyclops).
So was it fate, the gods, bad luck? I’m not sure it matters too much, but reading the story and seeing his actions, hubris (which plays a big role in a lot of Greek stories) plays a big part.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do YOU consider this the same as fast food?
2·12 days agoI mean there is a big difference between ramen in general and things like “cup noodle”.
One serving of cup noodle has about 50% of your daily sodium and very little nutrional value. I think the issue is that most people don’t think of things like cup noodle as the “fast” form of ramen.

5·13 days agoYeah, everyone was treating birthright citizenship as a win, when that’s just the law and status quo. The independence of agencies was a clear and painful loss.

Linux@programming.dev•Have you ever been disappointed with Linux?
4·14 days agoThe number of things that want you to run a bash script to install is way too damn high.
I’ve also started to see more things recommend installation using homebrew on Linux.

Television@piefed.social•Netflix Viewers Are Abandoning Shows After One SeasonEnglish
64·18 days agoWhen it’s anywhere from 1-3 years between seasons, what do they expect. By the time the next season comes out they’re lucky if I even remember the show.
That’s also not accounting for how many times they announced they canceled a show upon releasing the second season (which ends on a cliff hanger) - Inside Job and Spaceforce for example.

2·20 days agoThey didn’t originally, but at least in Europe they started getting some “monopolistic” threats and started to split it up. I’m not sure if they split them for all countries/markets and am too lazy to look it up right now.
Are you not sure if it was a real bathroom because you might still be stuck in a dream?

1·22 days agoIt happens periodically with any digital store because that’s the risk with being leased content from a digitial storefront. They may, due to licensing issues, remove content or the store may shutdown preventing you from accessing your content.
