As someone who went through the 12-13 upgrade last week. Do not go directly. I had to rollback twice during the 12-13 upgrade(thank you timeshift) so I couldn’t imagine trying to run an 11-13 upgrade.

I think my only real complaint about the deployment of this, is from a security standpoint. The password is hardcoded as “changeme” for the GitLab Runner container. which when run from an automated script like this the script itself doesn’t make the user aware of that. Like the script itself mentions that you should move credentials.txt but it never makes you aware of the hardcoded password.

it would be nice if it prompted for a password, or used a randomly generated one instead of that hardcode

I think everyone’s basically hit my complaints with Ubuntu. It’s a very bloated OS with a hard dedication into snaps, which I dislike(but I also hate flatpak so yea)

Being said if this is your first Linux distribution, you can’t go wrong with Ubuntu. It’s a very beginner-friendly distro. The only other one that I would have recommended aside from that would have probably been Mint. But Ubuntu is going to have quite a bit more tutorials and guides for it.

I synced immich to authentik post deployment no issue, but I believe my email matched. I don’t recall if I had to configure my user account ontop of the oauth settings or not, I believe it was smart enough to link the same email to the account.

If you are using a VM style deployment you could run a snapshot of the immich server ahead of time then just rollback if it fails. That’s what I do for all services when changing stuff.

I’m in this same boat as well. As someone who ran an XMPP server in the past, then stopped and eventually moved onto Matrix. I have to hard agree, in my experiences, XMPP was so much better administration side than having to deal with matrix, and its quite a bit more fleshed out(not to mention the sheer amount of clients available) Being able to just log into a management panel and have the panel do everything administration wise for me was super nice, instead of having to ask “is this only available via the API or is it available via a client or is this config only”, these types of tools from what I’ve seen don’t really exist for matrix.

I defo agree. Keep the domain for a few years, with the email server up still, but flag any emails from the server so you can go through and unsubscribe/change emails on anything using the old address.

I think they need to step back a little and address their quality control before they try to embrace the AI bandwagon on captions/subtitles.

I agree, I set my grandparents doors up on a timer, if its still open at 11 PM it auto closes both doors. I’ve got the ping a few times now saying “emergency door schedule activated” meaning that they were open and had not been closed prior.

I saw this the other day as well when i was looking at filebrowsers github looking into seeing if it had SSO support. It’s a shame really.

I remember that. They actually had quite a bit of trouble when they first tried to establish as an officially licensed company because of the fact that their initial user base was sailing the seas.

I don’t doubt it with some of the translations I’ve seen. I think it would be better for them to just release the main content and then release subtitles further on down the road, But I assume there’s probably some sort of accessibility law that forbids them from doing that.

It just gets super annoying watching a show and either having poor quality subtitles or subtitles that blatantly spoil parts of the series.

For example, in one piece

I use subtitles because I have ADHD, And as part of that, it makes it so I struggle to keep up with audio versus comprehending it and subtitles give me a short delay of being able to catch up and still be able to read the text to understand what happened. when the subtitles are broken, I end up hard focusing on that. or get lost requiring me to rewind. Super annoying.

I should clarify it depends on your definition of fan. When you’re making a derivative work, there’s two versions. There’s fan which is The person is enthusiastic about the content and then there is the intellectual property variation of it, which is someone who is doing it for non-commercial reasons under fair use(or said countries equivalent). However, once you start requiring money for said process, it removes the protections the creator has shielding it and generally changes the definition to that version.

Additionally, I agree a donation jar would be much better, but even then it’s been shown that that doesn’t resolve all liability because fan projects have been taken down for having a donation button even though the project itself is free, heck projects have been taken down for having advertisements on the projects website despite having nothing to do with said project

Sadly, this can be said about actual streaming services as well. There’s some episodes on Crunchyroll on even big name titles like One Piece is very clear that they took the episode and threw it through some sort of subtitle auto generator because it won’t line up with what they’re saying. And I don’t mean like they don’t align or they’re out of sync. That does happen as well. What I mean is like it will say Fred on the show, but it will say the word bread on the screen.

I don’t get it, because a service that is licensing the shows shouldn’t need to use a service like that, because shouldn’t the original source have that information? It makes me wonder if those big streaming services are still pirating the smaller things, like subtitles.

Not really a fan translation service if they’re requiring payment.

Real time ip blocking while keeping the judge requirement? Idk how real time that process is going to be unless they just keep a judge on standby for all events.

Least I assume this system will need judicial review prior to actually sending the block out, otherwise this system is so prime for abuse it isn’t even funny. They don’t state penalties for abuse, they don’t state how they get the data, they don’t state a specific method of how to block.

There’s so much info(or lack of) that is just concerning if there isn’t actually a judicial review and it’s just the IP holders sounding the alarm.

This right here is what really grinds my gears. When companies own an IP, refuse to do anything on it, and then engage in litigation when someone makes a fan-based project against that IP, or someone redistributes their IP that they’re no longer selling.

Either ride the horse or leave the stable.

chiming in, even excluding self host, I wouldn’t recommend wix, their sites are so bloated and take forever for me to load, and I’ve had Firefox just straight refuse to load pages before that are wix run.

omg don’t get me started on this.

My grandparents are avid Red Sox fans, but they were paying 150$+ a month on cable, so I moved them to fubo, this worked for a few years but now it seems that they are trying to throw them on as many channels as possible to force a higher package. Last year he asked me what apple tv was, and I said a streaming service, why? and he said that they had a game on it that /only/ was on apple tv. it was a SINGLE GAME and they had exclusive broadcast rights on it. Needless to say he missed that game, but that’s ridiculous.

I vet lesser known projects, but yea I do end up just taking credibility for granted for larger projects. I assume that with those projects, the maintainers team with pull access is doing that vetting before they accept a pull.

I’m not for the US gov or politics getting involved in legal issues, however the music industry must lose this lawsuit no matter what.

The precedent it will cause many people to be effected that wouldn’t be normally, AND also forces a punishment that isn’t equal to the crime.

We live in a world that very much requires internet to do anything, this judgement would force people to go offline for potential IP(Intellectual Property) issues. That punishment is exponentially higher than what the crime actually was. It’s life ruining.

This isn’t the same as “oh you sold modified game hardware to people so you can no longer touch that game system”, this is “you may have stole music, so therefore you are losing your ability to do anything digital”. Even if the accusation is true, considering how much of the world is digital now, and how few ISP options are available in areas due to legal constraints, this is not a fair punishment to give. A fair punishment is a fine and a ban from being allowed to hold that producers IP. It’s a severe overstep to remove someones access to the internet for an IP violation and I fully agree it is not the responsibility of the ISP

Honestly, this is the digital equivalent of doing a house arrest for someone stealing music from a store. It isn’t right.
