Years ago there was this funny clip of Ben Affleck doing various different Boston accents on the Jimmy Kimmel show. Super funny and became one of those clips that I would seek out a few times a year to rewatch and have a laugh.

It got pulled for for copyright or something which was weird because its really like a 3 minute clip. In any event its gone, forever. Cant find it anywhere.

Tubearchivist allows us to grab things we plan on rewatching over and over.

The industry I work in has many many companies. For whatever reason they all seem to use a very similar website template. Job openings are almost always listed on their webpage. Almost always its a plugin from workday or whatever their HR software is. Years ago I noticed that job listings were almost always published to their websites before they appeared on major job sites like linkedin.

I used a business to business website that lists every single company in this industry by location and has a link for each to generate a list of companys and URLS. I monitor this for changes with changedetection.io

​

Then changedetection.io + company list and their job posting URLS that look like this company.com/careers/join-us/?_sft_job_posting_category=technical

​

So I now have about 800 companies that I am able to monitor for job leads and get notified via NTFY with company, job title and job description.

​

Its turned off currently cause I am actively employed, but when I was looking about a year ago I had it running hourly and if I look again I will indeed use it

its great and has active development. Hit up the discord, lotta helpful folks in there

let’s take the budgeting app as an example. Here is what I want.

1. Free
2. open source
3. Available anywhere on any device
4. All data stored on MY equipment. No cloud provider or 3rd party

The only way to achieve this is self hosting in my opinion.

Cant say enough good things about Serge

For me plex just seems to be better in all aspects. It is more “polished”. Quick example, I have more than a few movies that are in 2 parts (moviename_cd1.mp4, moviename_cd2.mp4). In plex I see one poster for the movie and when it plays it seamlessly plays both in sequence. In jellyfin I get two posters for the same movie. Very small issue but it is one of many that keep me in plex,

​

Add to this that the plex app on mobile, smart tv, appletv, toaster, etc just works. If I want to let my family or friends watch something its simple.

Further, plexamp is fantastic.
