Discord has forums built in. I know everyone hates it when I mention it, but there is continuity on Discord and has been for several years now.

That’s because it’s not exactly a great point. Look, we’re all glad they caught up to 1980’s bbs tech, but it’s behind a login screen. YOU HAVE TO GIVE YOUR PHONE NUMBER TO ACCESS IT.

Discord had always been a square peg beaten with a hammer to fit in a round hole. Eventually gaining basic features for the things it was never meant to be used for. Forcing people to sell themselves out just to read some documentation on an open source project.

I couldn’t agree more. I had a foot in both the MacOS and Microsoft Windows worlds at the time and can appreciate what a game changer notepad++ became. Having used BBEdit on the Mac since around the mid 90s, it was kinda more like “it’s about time” a decade later when notepad++ was released. I’m not necessarily comparing them feature to feature, but it was a much needed piece of software for Windows. I still have memories of opening up text files and being like … damn someone f’d this txt file up on a windows machine.. again.

Kula Shaker has a fascinating catalog of music.

It’s unfortunate that this Florida transplant still has political ties to Colorado.

I’d use clonezilla

E: It’s not that it can’t be done other ways, it’s just clonezilla will work and has worked for nearly 2 decades. Also there’s no information provided above about the data. So clonezilla is nice if it’s a complicated scenario.

Plus, it’s a nice tool to throw in the toolbox once you know how to use it.

E. Why do you feel like you have to use something like dd for this particular task? Less than 16 GB of data? Ya probably could have copied it over manually by now.

We all do what we can. For example my calendar is self hosted and managed personally. Apple is simply a client using Caldav.

Wow. What a zinger? No really, great addition to the discussion. Thank you.

No, probably not. Love em or hate them, they have a pretty good record on privacy going back decades.

Google though. lol. I mean that’s THE largest advertisement company to ever exist. The same company who finally admitted they were selling their browser’s incognito data.

That 3rd party app with the better widget calendar is for sure selling.

If it’s accessible using primary IP on the main system , firewall is set or completely disabled and both client and server are on the same network, then I’m not sure. Unless there’s some kinda of network setting mismatch on the laptop or a configuration in Jellyfin not allowing connections outside the host , then I’m not sure. We did cover the basics, so I’m sorry it’s not working.

Ok. So you’re definitely not trying to use 127.0.0.1 remotely.

So on your phone’s web browser ( using the same WiFi ) if you visit http://:8096 and nothing happens then it’s the firewall on the mint system. You would need to allow ports 8096/8097.


I’ve never used Linux mint, but if it’s Debian based then it might be using UFW firewall.

First, check that if firewall is running. Open a terminal and type:

sudo ufw status

Step 2: Open ports 8096 and 8097

To allow traffic through ports 8096 and 8097, use the following commands:

sudo ufw allow 8096/tcp
sudo ufw allow 8097/tcp

This opens both ports for TCP traffic. If you also want to open the ports for UDP traffic, you can use:

sudo ufw allow 8096/udp
sudo ufw allow 8097/udp

Step 3: Verify the rules

Once you’ve added the rules, you can check the firewall status to verify the changes:

sudo ufw status

You should see entries for ports 8096 and 8097 allowing TCP (and/or UDP) traffic.

Step 4: Reload firewall (if necessary)

If the changes do not take effect immediately, you may reload the firewall using:

sudo ufw reload

Now, the firewall should allow traffic through ports 8096 and 8097.

Ok. What address are you using when trying access the server on your phone or Jellyfin client?

Edit: An address like this http://127.0.0.1:8096 or this http://:8096/

[–] zelifcam 3 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (7 children)

How? Like http://:8096 in a web browser? On the same system running the server or is this a separate computer?

Wroom 32 + Core1262-868M (self.meshtastic)
submitted 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) by zelifcam to c/[email protected]
 

I read through the Meshtastic firmware code and found the file variant.h for the Meshtastic-DIY-v1_1 build. Notice it’s not the DIY-v1. Instead v1_1. My understanding from that file is that I should be able to wire the following:

ESP32 WROOM-32 dev Pin,Core1262-868M Pin,Function

3V3,VCC,Power (3.3V)

GND,GND,Ground

18,SCK,SPI Clock

19,MISO,SPI Data In

23,MOSI,SPI Data Out

5,CS,SPI Chip Select

33,DIO1,LoRa IRQ

32,DIO2,LoRa BUSY

27,RESET,LoRa Reset

14,RXEN,RF switch RX control

13,TXEN,RF switch TX control

Unfortunately after building out the DIY_v1_1 firmware, wiring it up and flashing it I get thrown into a boot loop only after setting the region.

I will provide logs once I’m able to do so, just wanted to submit this while I had time. I’m curious if I was misunderstanding the compatibility with a Core1262-868M or if anyone has any tips. Thanks.

Update : I have it working

The most useless calendar widget is made by Apple. I constantly forget that someone’s birthday or something important is coming up later in the week.

Now I understand that you can set up alerts and you can set up reminders for stuff. I also understand that you can choose a different size widget. But depending on the size and the amount of events it’s possible it won’t even show you what’s going on the next day in the larger widget as well.

This is forced me to use third-party widgets to display calendar events for the week on my home screen. I hate it because I have no idea if it’s stealing my data.

Bonus Edit! The large widget fails to show you what’s happening today!
