For me it has always just defaulted to the left-most monitor. I had a script that would disable that monitor with xrandr when sddm loaded and then re-enable it on logon, but I couldn’t get something similar working in Wayland.

Avoid local retail in favor of what, a website? If you’re concerned about the data mining potential of this robot rolling around a strip mall then you should avoid the internet at all costs.

What is sketchy about downloading a torrent that it could save you from? Wouldn’t it be executing whatever you downloaded on another machine that would be the risky part?

How would a thinking emoji make it clear your question isn’t serious? Also, things have been available for a limited time long before phishing attempts were a thing, and will continue to exist for legitimate purposes long after. You can’t expect the entire rest of the world to stop doing something innocuous just because it’s also used as a tactic to fool a small subset of inattentive people.

lol I would open every port on my router and route them all to wireguard before I would ever consider doing this

My theory is that the RTSP port (554) is for streaming and that when I go to the local address (that is on 80), the site ITSELF initiates a connection to port 554 in the background. However, this apparently does not happen when I connect remotely.

I think you’re on the right track here. The DVR is probably telling your browser to connect to http://192.168.1.222:554 for the stream, which on LAN is fine because you have a route to 192.168.1.222, but when connecting externally you won’t be able to get to 192.168.1.222.

You can probably check the network connections in dev tools in the browser to confirm that.

Edit: Editing this to also stress the importance of the advice given by @SteveTech@programming.dev. My home cameras are also only accessible from outside my network via wireguard.

I use Nextcloud with Nginx Proxy Manager and just use NPM to handle the reverse proxy, nothing in Nextcloud other than adding the domain to the config so it’s trusted.

I use Plex instead of Jellyfin, but I stream it through NPM with no issues. I can’t speak to the tunnel though, I prefer a simple wireguard tunnel for anything external so I’ve never tried it.

Edit: unless that’s what you mean by tunnel, I was assuming you meant traefik or tailscale or one of the other solutions I see posted more often, but I think one or both of those use wireguard under the hood.

Damn I forgot no content existed online and could be profitable before YouTube came along and saved us all from the dark ages.

Exactly, then it could have just been a text list on a webpage and we’d all be better off.

I like the workflow of having a DNS record on my network for *.mydomain.com pointing to Nginx Proxy Manager, and just needing to plug in a subdomain, IP, and port whenever I spin up something new for super easy SSL. All you need is one let’s encrypt wildcard cert for your domain and you’re all set.

I had done a few easier Linux installs on Raspberry Pis and VMs in the past, but when I decided I wanted to try using Linux as my daily driver on my desktop (dual-booted with Windows at the time) I decided to go with a manual Arch install using a guide and I would 100% recommend it if you’re trying to pick up Linux knowledge. It’s really not a difficult process to just follow step-by-step, but I looked up each command as they came up in the guide so I could try to understand what I was doing and why.

I don’t know what packages archinstall includes because I’ve never used it, but really the biggest thing for me learning was booting into a barebones Arch install. Looking into the different options for components and getting everything I needed setup and configured how I wanted was invaluable.

That being said, now that I know how, is that how I would choose to install it? Nah, I use the CachyOS installer now, but if I wanted stock Arch I’d probably use archinstall.

What you’re describing is the whole point of flatpaks. Just don’t use flatpaks then.

Lol, what? If you look at a list of scripted TV shows that have ran for 35+ years it’s going to be dominated by removedty soap operas. You have no idea what you’re talking about.

There are plenty of bad shows on TV, the fact that its being made says nothing about its quality.

I’m sure the artists behind the music for the 20+ year old games this could be used for are really feeling the pain of their creative rights being abused from people trying to still enjoy their art after all this time, you wet blanket.

Different strokes. If I preferred using software that was just good enough out of the box over something I can customize to my exact liking then I probably wouldn’t be using Linux in the first place, or at least not the way I do in general.

Beyond that, having it be customizable means other people can change it to their liking and share that configuration, and maybe I’d experiment with it and find something I didn’t even know I wanted.

I started using fooyin recently, and it’s good enough to have replaced running foobar2000 in WINE for me.

The best music player on Linux is still foobar2000 in WINE, so I will definitely be trying this out.

Your position is based on a flawed understanding of one statistic. If Canonical released a hardware survey for snap, and it showed that 99% of the machines using snap were running Ubuntu, would that mean 99% of all Linux machines are running Ubuntu? No, it would mean that snap users are more likely to use Ubuntu while steam users are more likely to use SteamOS. You are seeing a very small piece of the overall picture and are making wild extrapolations from it.

You don’t honestly believe that, right? Like you’re aware that the Steam hardware survey only includes Steam users that have it installed and choose to participate in the survey? There are way more computers and servers running Ubuntu than there are steam decks.
