Nice, I’d love to find one of those some time.

I got started with jellyfin and never used Plex but there’s a bunch of rough edges:

• No apps on several smart tv/streaming stick stores, Vizio has an app for plex but not jellyfin so I would need to buy a new streaming device. Yes smart tvs spy on you but the alternatives people recommend either spy on you just as much or are expensive (Nvidia shield) and most of them still require side loading so it’s a major obstacle for sharing with anyone else.
• Casting from the mobile app won’t play at full resolution, you can get around this by using VLC as your player and casting from that but that causes it to frequently lose watch progress. Also stopping casting or playing the next episode doesn’t work properly with VLC and you need to rapidly mash “back” to get into the jellyfin app again and queue up a new episode.
• The current release of Jellyfin desktop won’t play audio for iptv streams, this is fixed in the dev branch but I have yet to find a build without other critical bugs so I’ll likely need to wait for the next release which currently has no target date.
• The browser version has spotty controller support that stops working constantly. When it does work it lacks any way to access context menus to mark shows as watched etc. If you’re using a flatpak browser to run it on steam deck or whatever, you’ll have codec and passthrough issues (Chrome is the only flatpak with decent codec support).
• Others have mentioned the security issues which you can bypass by putting authentik or something in front of it but then you can only share with people using browser.

Not yet but I probably will at some point. Wild oysters are better than cultivated so maybe these will be too.

Though with oysters the wild ones I’m eating are probably a different species than the cultivated. Someone sequenced a grocery store oyster for fun and it turned out to be something close to Pleurotus floridanus while the ones we have in the PNW are usually P. pulmonarius or sometimes P. ostreatus.

I’ve considered it enough to have the this guide bookmarked but I haven’t read through it yet.

FYI, Mycota’s mycoblitz no longer has a limit on submissions. That said, none of my submissions have made it through the queue yet.

Mica caps are a type of inky cap, Coprinellus and Coprinopsis are close relatives and both can turn to ink. They only have the sparkly particles when they’re fresh, these are starting to turn to ink so it’s not surprising they don’t have it. Coprinopsis atramenteria is usually larger and duller-colored.

I can practically hear Cecil reading this in an overly cheerful tone on an episode of Welcome to Nightvale.
