  • There’s just enough disagreement and “infighting” to make people think their guy is the good guy and the other is the bad guy.

    When you look at the overall picture, however, things start standing out.

    There was much complaining and gnashing of teeth by most Democrats, and even a few Republicans, when the Bush era Patriot Act was pushed through. One particular Democratic politician even ran on the promise of eliminating it.

    Guess what? It wasn’t eliminated.

    Same thing with war and attacking other nations on their own sovereign soil.

    It’s still happening, and it never stops, no matter which party is in control of the US government.

    “But the other side does it more than we do!”

    HOW ABOUT NEITHER SIDE DOES IT! HOW ABOUT WE MIND OUR OWN FUCKING BUSINESS!











  • My favorite use case for MASS is my desktop PC, in our bedroom, has a decent 5.1 sound system, and is running squeezelite.

    I have an alarm automation that starts playing from the random 500 playlist.

    When my phone connects to my car’s Bluetooth, it transfers the queue to my phone, which is running snapcast on a VPN.

    When my phone disconnects from my Bluetooth, and I am at home, it transfers any queue from my phone back to my desktop.

    If I’m not at home it just stops the music, otherwise it’ll start playing through the phone speakers.

    While at work, I’ll use Ultrasonic rather than music assistant, because my data inside my work area is sporadic, and not conducive to a good musical experience with how MASS streams.

    As was stated on the first post you made about this, it’s a dns or nat reflection issue.

    Plex sees you accessing it through your external IP address, and not through your lan IP.

    I had a similar problem, and had to roll back some nat changes I made, and now it’s working fine again.

    Meanwhile, free remote streaming works fine if you have a proper VPN setup. I just tested it, and was able to stream to my phone, through the Plex app, over my tailscale VPN, and I do not have Plex pass on the server or on my phone…
