[720.98 --> 721.50] Okay. |
[721.66 --> 721.98] Sorry. |
[722.80 --> 725.36] I mean, it's pretty good for what it is. |
[725.90 --> 727.72] It's just Plex has a head start. |
[728.10 --> 736.80] And the fit and finish of the UI and the experience I have there is much better on Plex than Jellyfin. |
[737.28 --> 738.56] What would it take for you to switch? |
[738.56 --> 745.80] I think when it's suitable for my family members, you know, that they have a lot of time invested in learning. |
[746.28 --> 748.56] Plex has various UI changes over the years. |
[748.94 --> 751.84] And they kind of figured out how it works now for the most part. |
[751.84 --> 756.82] Once Jellyfin's at that kind of level of polish, it's just not yet, though. |
[756.82 --> 760.24] Linode.com slash SSH. |
[760.34 --> 763.20] Linode is the largest independent cloud computing provider. |
[763.34 --> 769.12] And when you go to Linode.com slash SSH, you'll get $100 in 60-day credit towards a new account. |
[769.32 --> 770.92] And you can go there to support the show, too. |
[771.46 --> 773.18] We were just talking about media servers. |
[773.18 --> 778.46] Well, Linode has a one-click application deployment for Plex if you want to get a Plex server up in the cloud, |
[778.56 --> 781.60] which is a great way to share with friends and family at super fast streaming speeds. |
[782.00 --> 784.92] Of course, you could just build your own stack and deploy Jellyfin or anything you'd like. |
[785.02 --> 789.24] And no matter what skill level you're at or what technology stack you're familiar with using, |
[789.72 --> 791.50] Linode will help you get it going online. |
[791.62 --> 793.64] They have a really easy-to-use dashboard. |
[794.08 --> 798.02] And if you have any trouble getting things going or run into any kind of problem, |
[798.02 --> 803.46] Linode has amazing, fantastic, great, outrageously good customer support. |
[803.68 --> 805.66] By phone or ticket, they're going to help you get it solved. |
[805.72 --> 810.42] If you've got one rig or you're like me and you're crossing, like, the 15-rig mark or something, |
[810.50 --> 812.98] I mean, it's getting crazy because we use Linode for everything. |
[813.08 --> 815.16] And it's not just, like, haphazardly. |
[815.84 --> 817.48] We think about every machine we deploy. |
[817.68 --> 821.42] And we decide, okay, is this going to be the machine that is just a dedicated box? |
[821.42 --> 824.46] Maybe it only runs one application or it runs just a couple of things. |
[824.92 --> 827.08] Or is this going to be something like an application server? |
[827.08 --> 829.72] We have a couple of these, too, where these are more powerful Linodes. |
[830.08 --> 833.10] And we run multiple containers on them, running multiple applications, |
[833.40 --> 839.84] from mail to encoding services to matrix to, well, really, you run the gamut. |
[839.86 --> 842.58] Anything we're just talking about on the show, we pretty much host it on Linode. |
[843.12 --> 844.32] People ask me, why, Chris? |
[844.34 --> 845.62] Because there's a lot of places to host. |
[845.76 --> 849.94] Well, the reason for that really comes down to a few core things that I think are pretty important. |
[850.42 --> 852.50] Number one, it is a really good product. |
[852.62 --> 853.56] It's very fast. |
[853.64 --> 855.10] They have 11 data centers worldwide. |
[855.10 --> 859.74] The interconnects between the data centers, I think, beat what everybody else has, hands down. |
[860.08 --> 861.36] Linode is their own ISP. |
[861.48 --> 866.02] So they just have a networking opportunity that people that haven't been around as long don't have. |
[866.64 --> 871.84] Additionally, their dedicated CPU rigs, they're just faster than other people's dedicated CPU rigs. |
[871.96 --> 872.70] I like that. |
[873.14 --> 876.72] Then you factor in that they're really just good Linux-loving folks. |
[876.80 --> 878.38] They have been since 2003. |
[878.38 --> 882.16] And that factors into some of the decisions on how they've built the product. |
[882.52 --> 884.48] And those things appeal to me. |
[884.74 --> 886.40] They make it easy for me to use. |
[886.44 --> 888.00] And I feel like it's very simple. |
[888.10 --> 890.82] But when I need power in that dashboard, it's there. |
[890.98 --> 894.16] And then there's services like their S3-compatible object storage. |
[894.16 --> 900.72] Now, this is great because I can use S3 object storage for backup, for configs that I want to store off-site. |
[900.80 --> 904.56] Or we use it as the back-end storage mechanism for our next cloud instance. |
[904.64 --> 908.10] So we're not having to sit there and fiddle with different disk sizes like amateurs. |
[908.38 --> 910.62] We just throw it on the S3 storage. |
[910.62 --> 915.06] But Linode's so fast that it really is very performant. |
[915.20 --> 916.70] And it's a great way to build a static website. |
[917.14 --> 918.82] There's so much you can do there. |
[918.90 --> 929.10] If you just need something simple like a portfolio website, or if you want to run the back-end infrastructure for your team collaboration or for your e-commerce website, Linode's going to be able to do it all. |
[929.18 --> 931.34] So go to linode.com slash SSH. |
[931.34 --> 934.22] Get that $100 60-day credit on your new account. |
[934.58 --> 936.54] And then just see what it can do. |
[937.24 --> 938.46] See what we've been talking about. |
[938.68 --> 940.10] And see why we use it for everything. |
[940.62 --> 942.46] Linode.com slash SSH. |
[943.98 --> 947.12] Now what do you do for home assistant wall panels? |
[947.20 --> 950.78] I recall you bought a Fire tablet a while ago, right? |
[951.12 --> 952.26] I have a couple of them now, yep. |
[952.42 --> 957.90] I have a 10-inch one and a 7-inch one that I have mounted in the Lady Joops RV. |
[958.32 --> 959.20] How are they working out for you? |
[959.22 --> 959.60] Do you like them? |
[959.60 --> 960.60] Pretty good. |
[960.80 --> 961.74] Pretty good. |
[961.98 --> 963.72] Not very good performance. |
[964.04 --> 969.88] And also one of them, even though I bought the no-ads model, has ads on the lock screen. |
[970.10 --> 971.52] And I find that frustrating. |
[972.08 --> 973.86] So the performance is not fantastic. |
[974.02 --> 981.76] But just sitting there with a web page up and after I install an app, after I sideload an app like an animal to keep the screen on, they get the job done. |
[981.76 --> 982.18] All right. |
[982.18 --> 983.38] Well, I've got a solution for you. |
[983.38 --> 993.10] My wife has, or had, it's mine now, a Fire 7-inch HD tablet from 2015. |
[993.10 --> 998.08] We paid £35 for this tablet six years ago. |
[999.02 --> 1001.40] You know, the battery is crap. |
[1001.74 --> 1003.62] I mean, the battery was crap when it was new. |
[1003.94 --> 1004.88] The screen is bad. |
[1005.00 --> 1006.64] It was bad back then. |
[1006.72 --> 1008.02] So it's really bad now. |
[1008.56 --> 1010.02] It's just not a great device. |
[1010.36 --> 1011.00] Let's be honest. |
[1011.06 --> 1013.60] But it was £35 six years ago. |
[1013.60 --> 1020.52] And I thought to myself, wouldn't it be cool if I had a wall-mounted tablet dashboard? |
[1020.88 --> 1021.34] Good for you. |
[1021.60 --> 1027.70] In my workshop, I've been doing some automation around the woodworking blast gates that I have. |
[1027.74 --> 1030.40] We'll talk about that more in an upcoming episode. |
[1031.18 --> 1037.14] And then basically, I just wanted a touchscreen panel that I could just jab my fat fingers on and just open a certain blast gate. |
[1037.14 --> 1042.08] I didn't want to spend any money because it's already, woodworking's already expensive enough. |
[1042.28 --> 1045.72] Did you think about going with a voice tube out there before this, or do you already have one? |
