Basically every local service is accessed via a web interface, and every interface wants a username and password. Assuming none of these services are exposed to the internet, how much effort do you put into security here?
Personally, I didn't really think about it when I started. I make a half-assed effort at security where I don't use "admin" or anything obvious as the username, and I use a decent-but-not-industrial password - but I started reusing the u/p as the number of services I'm running grew. I have my browsers remember the u/ps.
Should one go farther than this? And if so, what's the threat model? Is there an easier way?

Masochism, paranoia.

Another vote for Debian, and I'll suggest you go ahead and install Jellyfin directly rather than messing with Docker.
https://jellyfin.org/downloads/server
I'd been running JF under Docker on my NAS, but when I moved to a new server I decided to just install it directly and it hasn't been any problem at all. You'll get a notification when it needs to be updated and it's just a few clicks to do so. You won't have to fight with Docker to get hardware acceleration working - which isn't to say it won't be a PITA, but it's one less layer of complication.

I'm interested in this too. I have unreleased music that I've made and it somehow generates reasonable similarities to other music in my library. It can't be simply pulling the info from the net since the artist name I'm using isn't out there anywhere. Some kind of spectral analysis maybe?

 

It's extremely time-, storage-, and compute-expensive to generate images for an entire library before-hand. In my case it's doing all this work for tons of content that I might not even watch again.
I guess the idea is that there's no delay in the images being available as soon as the programme is started?
I'm not sure the trade-off is worth it.

 

I made this from a long piece cherry offcut that I've had sitting around for ages. Here's a better picture of the interesting bit:

I'm honestly not thrilled with the finish. I thought I'd sanded out all the little 'scales' the planer leaves, but many came back when I put the oil on.

 

Jumblevision is not a line I'm familiar with.

 

I guess still cameras weren't cutting it.

I've been shopping for the same thing. I can report that Intel N100-based computers currently (February 2024) have issues with Linux WiFi drivers. Not a problem if you're hardwiring it.
I'd also avoid the really tiny PCs because they use the shortest M.2 drives (2242), which limits capacity and upgradeability. You want one that fits a 2280 M.2 drive. Or a 2.5" SATA drive.

 

I was cleaning out an old bookshelf and came across this 2003 Grizzly catalog. Coincidentally, I'd just received a 2023 mailer. I was shocked by the increases in price.

Some highlights:
Standard 14" band saw: $375 vs. $800
Standard 6" jointer: $400 vs. $900
4-piece Bessey K-body clamp set: $150 vs. $350

I know nothing about how inflation works, so I'm not sure whether this tracks with the price of bread or whatever, but it was eye-opening.

 
 

Prices are all over the place and I'm totally lost.
