I have docker installed, but only have a vague idea of how it works.
Back in the day, I would just port forward, but even then, I would need a static IP somehow.
I have heard a reverse proxy is an option, but that is an entirely new topic to me.
Surely there is an easy way to access Jellyfin outside of my home network that I’m just missing.
*Edit: I am blown away by all the help and support! I currently have tailscale running, and I’m in the process of purchasing a domain.
Thanks everyone!
hard to do that when this question is posted twice a week.
Woe is me! you know what I do? I use my eyes and brain to read and learn. I search for my question first before wasting the time of others. why do you think that is? probably because you learn more about something by investing time and effort into a topic you’re unskilled at.
hard to picture that because when I am unskilled at something I teach myself to be skilled. I do this by reading, observing, and trial & error.
I get it, not everyone is as amazing as I am. But the bar is pretty low since this question has been answered a dozen or more times not only on this community but on hundreds of other communities. there is literally no good excuse to not search for your solution and learn from it.
I built my first PC by myself. no documents. no help. hell it was just after dialup was a “thing”. I burned up a few components in the process. guess what, I taught myself how to fix them too. I went to the library, I read books, took notes, did the things. I learned how to read schematics, I learned how to salvage components, learned a lot.
I think you can too, if you weren’t so lazy looking for the easy answer.
Not everyone has the luxury or capacity to research and learn. So if you have a health problem you self diagnose and give yourself treatment at the hospital? I’m sure those docs get asked about the same problems all the time. And yet, they don’t turn you away because they have seen that problem too many times.
Built my first pc around the same time, and I still researched and asked for clarifications when needed.
I think you just have an issue accepting that others are not in the same situation or as capable as you. Some people have much less free time. Less tolerance for error.
Let’s say your engine costs 25k to rebuild. You’d do that yourself? Sans the labour, 10k in parts. You’re okay with not having a vehicle for potentially months? You’re okay if you happen to misunderstand an instruction or forget something and spend all thy time getting it back together advancing the thing explode when you get it all together?
You seem to think quite highly of yourself. Your comments just reek of narcissism.
bullshit excuses.
I can diagnose, I’ve read medical textbooks and have researched. I have even performed minor surgery on myself to remove a cyst from my thigh about the size of a grape. I taught myself how to properly suture for that one. I don’t recommend it though. cyst’s can actually wrap around blood vessels which when burst or cut can make you bleed out quickly. having a cauterizing tool helps mitigate this. you can DIY with a scalpel and an induction source to heat the tip of the blade (ask me how I know), though most surgeons use electric ones these days that use plasma to burn the flesh away. you can actually buy them for pretty cheap these days.
doctors take a Hippocratic Oath. Tech workers don’t, so your analogy falls flat.
good for you. sounds like you had better opportunities than I did. How did you put it? “Not everyone has the same luxury to research and learn.” Sorry, paraphrasing.
how presumptuous. you don’t have the time or tolerance for making mistakes, so you’re going to waste the time and effort of a community and ask the same question repeatedly? compared with that perspective, I sound less like an asshole. and I am an asshole!
of course I wouldn’t! $25k will buy a new car. I only spent $13k on my current car.
I see what you’re trying to do. the difference is, I would be paying a mechanic to fix my car. I’m not asking them how to fix it, or why it needs to be fixed. nobody is paying anyone on this community. maybe that’s the problem. maybe if we charged people to ask questions they might be more inclined to see if the question has been asked already…
funny! I’m super humble about myself IRL. I don’t talk about myself or my accomplishments at all, except when it comes to shining a light on lazy people who just want the answers spoon fed to them. y’all aren’t babies or children anymore. the internet exists and is a treasure trove of information. think critically, ask yourself more questions than others. reach out when you don’t understand something.
it’s not hard, but I guess it is when your expectation is that people should just help you because you want it.
I only read your first quote. I didn’t realize you had the capacity to be in every persons shoes, ergo have total understanding. If you can’t see how fucked up that is, I’m just arguing with a narcissist and there’s nothing I can do to open your view so I cease my comments here.
you read it, you don’t have to lie about it.
