YouTube is seriously forgetting it's role. I liked it better when it was dbz videos to Linkin Park and looney tunes. We use YouTube to not have a premium service then maybe contribute to the creators we like. We do NOT need yet another "streaming service" bill. They're getting out of hand.

Nah movies are too expensive now. I'm super excited for indy. He's my hero but the theater is a horrible money waste.

They need to learn to release straight to streaming instead of Theatre only. Because I spent a while lot of money on a 5.1, 65in 4k TV and awesome lighting to go blow $100 every time I want to see a new release? Hell no. The threater is just more irrelevant then ever when I can be super comfy and watch or be packed in with 100 strangers.

RIF shut down and told me to come here. I'm a simple man.

I use mint and I really like it. It's an easy familiar transition from windows.

Arch is for user's who want to start with a completely blank slate. Like there's no file system when you start, as far as I know. Think of arch like windows but nothing is installed, not even explorer.exe

Google isn't proceeding. Maybe now they'll realize YouTube is also suffering from their poor decisions.

I've gotten one popup about it. Hit the X to close it and it hasn't come back. Windows 10, Firefox, ublock origin.

Crazy thing is a make a white list for creators I enjoy and sub to but if I'm just looking to kill some time at lunch or looking for something time sensitive I don't want to be bothered by an ad for a video I'll be on for 5 second only for it not to be what I need then move on to the next video to watch another ad

YouTube is severely forgetting it's place on the internet.

There's an integrity check they implemented last year.

Login to your TrueNAS

Go to the Shares section from the left hand menu

Turn off the share

Launch the app you need

Once the app is fully deployed turn the file share back on again

That should do it. If the system goes down or the app updates and redeploys you'll need to turn off the share again to pass the integrity check.

I'm back this worked! Thank you!

Blur/pixelation can be brute forced. Just use a black image to cover up any info.

The lady got diagnosed with an anti immune disease and insurance has denied the medication the GI has prescribed so I might be looking at getting another job after just getting down to one. Medical bills are kicking our ass and we won't have savings for about 6 months.

But besides that the kid is in good health and my parents are doing good so trying to keep a positive outlook.

Commenting on this so I can try it tomorrow

So do you want to share where you store the video files or do you want to share your plex instance outside your home?

If you're looking to share where you store the video files. Don't. Just don't. SMB exposed to the internet is basically suicide.

But sharing the plex library is pretty straight forward. Follow this

https://support.plex.tv/articles/200289506-remote-access/

Then you may need to login to your router and find the option for port forwarding and forward the TCP connection. Normally 32400 but you can change it or follow the above guide.

There are other ways, like reverse proxy or a VPN connection back to your home network but this is the most straight forward.

That's a hard one to navigate. Little dude has been through a lot. Looking back the therapy in my younger years has been insanely helpful as I moved into my 20s and grew in my career.

Good luck brother.

Never heard of someone asking for money for access. Kinda goes against what plex is about. Wouldn't know how to set that up. Sounds pretty greasy to me.

I've been using adgaurd home from the official truenas apps. Running for about 3 or 4 months. It's doing it's job but it's no silver bullet. Also added a good few custom lists.

Can confirm on this. Eufy in a nutshell is pretty subpar. Installed a lot of cameras and security systems and they always had problems in one way or another.

Looks like Elon is back to being the good old hypocrite he usually is.

It's for RomM and the IGDB connection. Without that I think RomM will work but you get no cover art and no meta days. Which kinda defeats the point.

It's a free service. Unless you wanna get plex pass but it's not required.

Honestly this is what I'm going to resort to from the sounds of it. Lol. Not the worst solution. I liked the idea of a web front end to play from a console or even the TV for Mario party nights or when I actually get some alone time at home.
