Hey! OMG thank you for posting this. I have a redmi device too from a few years ago. Tried unlocking it but ran into an issue with the boot loader - apparently it needed to be unlocked with a real SIM and the device is an Indian market device (hand me down from a relative) and doesn’t support the network bands in the market I’m in. So I could never get the process completed.

So this is a TL:DR dumb question because maybe you covered it in your write up, but I’m a noob in this space so I don’t know what I don’t know to look for - how did you unlock the bootloader?

I don’t want to run desktop Linux on it. Maybe use it as a miniPC server or as I was thinking back then - install Ubuntu mobileOS on it.

No, that was JK Rowling.

I don’t watch in browser mostly. Else I would do this too.

IPTV too.

Yes. I’m lazy and watch a lot of YouTube. I cannot deal with ads.

That said, I have prime video through Amazon prime and it asks for, like, $4 per month to skip ads. I stopped watching prime video because of this.

See if you can use ZeroTier. It doesn’t use wire guard but rather their own protocol as far as I know.

“Anonymized”

Do you know how easy it is to deanonimize it? Clearly the regulators and politicians don’t care.

I can imagine a big wall of these, or the next varietal, illuminating a space and making oxygen as well. Maybe not street lights, but definitely night lighting in buildings.

They should use Fable to find hacks that work

Basically, if you put up a fake “future AI product” on there, meme-ify it, blast social media and HackerNews with it, and get people talking about it, regardless of whether it’s good talk or shit talk, you can sell it to some idiot VC for $25000000.

You can install it tomorrow.

Ah! Yes, I’m partial to nginx too. Lovely stuff 🙂

NetBird is… VPN?

What’s NPM in this case?

Oh nice! I have that. Haven’t touched it in a while. But I’ll check it out!

I agree that the rest of plex is undergoing enshittification. But the core features are kinda the same? I use it outside my home a LOT, so I don’t know how jellyfin would work for that. I know Cloudflare tunnel has a bad relationship with streaming video. Does Tailscale too? How do you access jelly outside your home?

Yeah, most likely the Compose version is aware of the ports in use and 443 is pretty standard for the NAS to keep to itself. The direct docker process would not be aware of the default config, or env Vars.

Also, welcome to Selfhosing! 😂

“… for Windows”? No thanks.

He understands it just fine.

What if you keep the file around but write to it and zero size it? Does chrome still download the file again?
