yeah the new plex app sucks, live tv only sometimes works on it and won’t cast. I side loaded the most recent version of the old app (10.26) and set it to not auto update.

I’ve been using yay and cachy-update, which seem to handle basic package management well for me so far. Do you have a favorite?

That’s excellent - I’ll be using this to help bridge my gap over to FreeCAD

I’ve tried it briefly, I found a lot of friction with trying to adjust to its UI. Maybe it was the order I did things in but when attempting a parametric design - following the same steps as my F360 timeline - FreeCAD just threw errors.

I still need to give it another try and learn the quirks and layout a little better. I haven’t needed to design things lately but when I do I’ll spend some more time with it.

Willing to bet a lot of companies will be considering that now lol. Will it actually happen though? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Have the same problem with PBS and NFS. Have to turn off the PBS container, delete the .lock file in the NFS directory, then boot up PBS. Thinking I’m just going to use a local directory instead of NFS

The hackaday feed is pretty interesting if you’re into that space

That should work for media files at least, but I believe they’ll also need Plex pass to be able to download anything.

Absolutely, that is definitely preferred when possible!

Woah

Same, we’re ones of dozens I’m sure but I’ve been running a mix of WD greens and Seagate barracudas in a hardware RAID5 array for over a decade. Only had 2 drive failures over the entire time with no data loss. But yeah… would advise against that if possible
