Imagine how long we could run on a liter of diesel or gas. Not to mwntion uranium /s

Just out of instinct.
Doesnt hurt to use them anyway ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

And I’d argue the same applies to the iMessage vs RCS (or actual non-SMS messengers).
Most normies would most likely not switch as they could care less about their data.

It’s not like you can’t do it (I did save the original SSD and replaced it with a new one and installed TrueNas Scale). It’s just not intended to do from uGreens perspective.

Edit: I think I used either of these guides I used on how to open and how to install the new OS:

Oh yeah. The HDD indicator bays are partly non-functional as well.
But you can restore some functionality with scripts you run periodically with cron. Juat search “ugreen dxp4800plus led cli github” to find it.

Edit2:
And I only chose a uGreen NAS due to the Kickstarter price. Because that was a 40% price reduction.
At least I got a solid Model that is really nice. It also has a magnetic metal dust cover Ican easily remove if needed (even easier than the one on my pc case front panel which is a Fractal Design North)

We use DS223j’s at work for our clients as backup targets.
Fast to set up and configure from a total beginner up to experienced IT personal.
And I set up NFS, Samba and ACLs in my own Debian NAS.
It aint so sleek and braindead-simple like a Syno does it.

Lol! Not like uGreen put any roadblocks to running your own OS (like disabling the watch dog feature in the BIOS and some other setting to enable custom boot).
And you don’t have any fan control on their NAS. Either you estimate and configure correcrly or you need to schedule downtime.
Actual servers let you live tune (some of) the power settings. Synology supports changing the fan profile in the live OS.

In regards to performance? Probably yes.
In regards to IO connectivity? It depends.
Maybe with something like a PCIe to SAS/SATA backplane?

Yep. That was ny actual question. May I know what your reasons to keepJellyfin from accessing the internet?
It’s not like Plex which does phone home.

For TV: I get it
But why for the server?

There are some very special videos.
One time I read about “Naked Yoga” videos being published uncensored on YouTube (so basically soft core porn).
Me not believing that (due to the high fear of popular youtuber being demonetized just because they said “ass” or “fuck”) searched for that and low and behold, there are people absolutely uploading basically pornhub level content on YT.

But YT lock those videos behind the age wall you have seen in OPs post.

Probably cheaper to just do Oled for the mobile line up vs split manufacturing.
The strange nature of mass producing parts…

You can still set up your own HTPC in your living room and configure it yourself.
And there are more solutions like from Apple (but they absolutely fucking track you as well) or other streaming box/stick solutions I am not aware of.
Unsure how good an Nvidia Shield is in regards to privacy. Your best bet for privacy is probably to just build your own solution on Linux.

Theres an actual difference between spending money on things you enjoy vs unable to pay for food and rent.

Why should the jellyfin server relay the internet connection from your tv if it isnt a router or proxy server??

CDs

Yup. And if you can’t find one, you can still get most of that second hand from pages like discogs.

Jellyfin is even better.

My next TV will be either a business/signage monitor or a computer monitor.
At least something without any connection outside. No network, no anything.
At most something like a Chromecast or similar.

I think my only contact with 4chan was to get JAV content and also my first contact with torrenting.

As Lemmy is usually US centric (Germany is usually only 2nd or 3rd place) I didnt deem it necessary. And most on Reddit Lemmy are so tech focused, they are more or less already aware anyway.

Easy to proof: Vaccumated capsule to draw blood.
No contact with air and still red.
