Plex can be set to auto delete. You can set it to delete after something has been watched (after a delay if you want), or to keep a pre-set number of items (e.g. only keep the five latest episodes of show X) or a combination.
Just make sure you set up the *arrs to not re-download the thing that Plex auto deletes.
I’m a hoarder so I keep a lot, but anything that’s time-sensitive like current affairs shows, I delete after watch and set to only keep the latest three episodes.
If you’re just interested in connections (and don’t care about packet inspection) you can use Little Snitch (paid) or LuLu (FOSS).
Actually, all the Objective-See Foundation security tools are great and target specific classes of vulnerabilities, like LuLu for outgoing network connections, RansomWhere for detecting ransomwear by looking for encryption events, Oversight that monitors you cameras and microphones and a bunch of other really small, but really useful security utilities. Better than running a shady antivirus that’s going to suck up loads of resources and rely on signatures.
The service I used to use shut down about six months ago and I’m yet to find a good replacement. So if anyone wants to put some words in my mouth (ugh, not sure I should have gone with that phrase) I’ll gladly accept. Seems like most of the “recommended” ones are referrals to scams, or have weird limitations (like not making the M3Us available, so you can’t hook in to Plex, for example).
Yep, exactly what I do. Has the advantage of also blocking in-app ads and some of Apple’s data collection. It also gives you complete control over what you block and don’t block, lets you see stats etc. Can’t really be beat.
Homepage is great. I like that you get little snippets from the apps it links through but is more customisable than something like Heimdall which does similar. It’s become my go-to having tried pretty much every other dashboard out there over the years.
Aye, sounds about right.
Matey boy assumed the rest of the world is as wasteful as the US is.
I’ve literally never even seen, or even heard of, a gas mower. Almost all of them are electric (and our electricity mix isn’t perfect, but is better than a lot of places) with the odd one being petrol for especially large gardens, but that’s increasingly rare.
Why the fuck would anyone use gas? That would be awful. Do you mean natural gas from the mains? Hydrogen? Bottled Calor gas? I’ve absolutely no idea what a gas mower could even be and searching is giving zero results that make sense.
Have you tried reading it whilst reclined in a deckchair?
It’s not, so far as I can tell, saying that the project cannot be done. The Red rating, equivalent to unachievable, is measuring against the goals set for the project, including financial.
So what this is saying (or rather confirming) is that it’s not achievable based on the current project goals. Or to put it another way, it’s over budget and cannot be delivered within budget.
So yeah, still not great that we can’t deliver something like this on budget, but if you look in to how it was originally costed for the business case there are holes in the logic large enough to drive several high speed trains through. Sideways. Hopefully the benefits are large enough that they still go through with it, but I suspect that’s largely dependent on which narratives take hold during the run up to the next election and whether the Tories can gaslight people in to thinking that country finances work the same way as personal finances.
Gas? Why does it use gas to maintain a lawn?
Meanwhile Porsche are developing an even tighter integration allowing you to control parts of the car through the CarPlay interface.
I think there’s a more fundamental issue than that. Many many Tory voters are of the opinion that life shouldn’t improve. They want to “conserve”.
I’ve spoken to Tory voters about exactly this and their opinion is that they had to work 5 days a week so everyone else should have to. Even if it’s overall worse for all involved. The same rule can be applied to anything. If they had to suffer, everyone else should also have to suffer. Tories are selfish, and regressive.
It’s really hard. And really expensive. I used to work in five nine environments, life or death type use cases, and my rule of thumb was that you double your cost for every extra nine you add.
When we got to five nines it was multiple hot standbys with a custom control and orchestration plane - literally custom hardware we had to build. This was for local installations, so not modern cloud environments (it was over a decade ago), but many of the challenges are similar, like session handling, transmission replay and caching, locking, clashing, routing, jitter, latency etc.

Banking apps are what’s kept me off the iOS beta so far. They usually just refuse to launch if it’s an unreleased iOS version. I’ve no idea what additional security they think that provides, but they do it anyway.
I moved from Organizr to Homepage via Heimdall.
I had no end of issues with Organizr. It felt like something broke with each update and performance was pretty bad (not to mention some apps just not working with it). Seemed to be pretty common when I last tried it a couple of years ago, there were lots of similar complaints.
The good thing about Homepage is that the widgets mean you rarely have to go in to each app’s ui, so it actually saves me time.
Don’t do any port forwarding, and test your network’s external exposure regularly. If you do that, you’ll set yourself up in the right way.
If you need to access anything you’re self-hosting from outside your network, do it through a VPN and open up one single port, the one the VPN users, rather than accessing services directly. And use a non-standard VPN.
This has other benefits too. For example, if you’re running a pihole, you’ll be able to use it when out and about on your phone if you’re going through your own VPN.
My slightly vague recollection was that they were basically feeding “enterprise customers” a load of information including stuff that could be used for union busting, monitoring protests etc. Their enterprise plan has
Feedly AI Advanced Skills: Market intelligence Threat intelligence Biopharma research Competitive intelligence
as features. So yeah, creepy as fuck. And they said at the time that this was all done using “AI”.

There’s an article on Apple Support about importing mail here: https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/icloud/mmf9877972f7/1.0/icloud/1.0
I think this is a Thunderbird issue. They are separate in Mail.app. It even allows you to use a catch-all rule if you’re the domain owner. Maybe you could set up smart mailboxes (or whatever the Thunderbird equivalent is, I’ve not used it in probably 15 years)?
