Focus instead on enforcing standards’ compliance so i can open a .docx with any program and be usable anywhere.

That’s an impossible task. Not even Microsoft manages that. Do not want to count how often i used libreOffice to repair or convert an older MSOffice file so it can be opend with modern Versions of MSOffice.

Once there was a 500MB Excel Sheet with lime 500-1000 used Cells, opened and saved it to.a xlsx file using libreOffice and reduced it to a few MB while still being fully functional.

Wasn’t the CVE fixed in a reasonable time frame? I seriously doubt that the maintainers would have ignored it if it wouldn’t have been discussed so publicly.

AFAIK, to exploit it, you need network access to CUPS then add the printer and then the client needs to add/select a new printer on the client device and actively print something.

If CUPS is reachable from the internet, then the system/network is misconfigured anyway, no excuse for ignoring the issue but those systems have other sever issues anyway.

Basically, when you do not run server side transcoding and instead rely on client side support you will run from time to time into issues. Jellyfin does not have the ppl to get every client to work with all the different formats on every hardware.

1080 h264/h265 does not say much about the media format. Those codec differentiate in things like Chroma (4:2:0; 4:4:4, etc) or in color depth like 8 or 10 bit. So not every h264 media file does run on the same hardware. Audio codecs are even more complicated.

I think since i setup my hardware transcoding I ran into a not playable file once. But depending on the hardware it can be worse. On android TV you may have to play around with the settings.

I understand that this can be a deal breaker for some ppl.

1. Not sure what you mean by that. Jellyfin has had an up to date version in the play store for years.
2. Yes every Profile is separated into its own account, that’s by design and will most likely never change. An easy PIN option in the local network existed for years. Now you can even login with your phone app by entering a displayed PIN.
3. I remember very few media that i had issues with in the past. Depending on the transcode hardware you have some things can be tricky

Yep. Also claimed “it affects all GNU/Linux” while it only really does CUPS and so on.

Just alone full disclosure is a shit thing to do. Do not even mention the part where it was intended as a responsible disclosure.

Qualcomm did work together with Microsoft and the Vendors closely together before the launch to create those devices.

Linux device vendors probably did not get the same treatment. So give it time. Also, why not buy a windows laptop and put linux on it?

Thanks my bad. OP was talking about ethernet in some of his comments so i somehow thought it was about an USB connected NIC.

I agree, all this attention grabbing sound to me as if this is actually not a big deal. But we will see i guess.

EAS is not implemented so imap and pop3 only. But i heard they currently work on EAS and should be arriving in the near future.

For EAS there is also a paid plugin Owl i think.

You want to run jellyfin with the jellyfin user. Otherwise access to all the files, configs and logs get screwed up or are not accessible

Only if you delete the partitions and create them new on the same blocks.

If you enlarge them, you should be fine.

Why not just clone the old ssd to the new one?

No need to reinstall tbh.

Also just download the windows iso from microsoft directly. If you do not want to pay for Windows you can always just use https://massgrave.dev/

I do not think that can be determined in the tech space with ‘age’ alone. Popularity, usability and performance are much more important factors.

It was already brought up in another comment, the gtx 1000th gen, is a nice example. The gtx 1080 is after 8 years still a valid GPU to use in gaming and the 1050 a nice little efficient cheap video encode engine which supports almost all modern widespread codecs and settings (except AV1).

Not what i am saying. I said that it is not a given, that translation means less performance.

In theory you can achieve similar or even higher performance, all depending on how well or how bad the original machine code is. Especially when you can optimize it for a specific architecture or even a specific CPU.

And yes ARM has shown to be more power efficient then x86 CPUs even on higher load (not just low powered embedded stuff).

and any efficiency gains these fancy new ARM chips supposedly have will be lost when translating x86 to ARM.

Not a given. Translating can still be more efficient.

Everyone knows what the blue screen is. This makes the implication when the screen does appear really obvious.

No need to reinvent the wheel.

No, cat is not for writing files. Cat is for reading files and directing the data to standard output.

With “>” you are directing standard output to a file, in this case a blockdevice.

Why? I am free to use whatever I want. This is not Microsoft Windows.

Or just cat file.img > /dev/…
