As mentioned, Akihabara will have plenty of stuff. If you have limited time or don't want to walk around that much, definitely stop by the multi-floor department stores. They have a bit of everything and you can browse them relatively quickly.
You're also likely to find some themed designs at the area Uniqlo.

The main difference between this project and the ones you listed is that this project includes a Plex installation out of the box. The other projects require you to connect to a separate Plex instance.

Are you definitely tied to the form factor? Because for $20 more you can get a much more capable mini PC.

It seems like you’re looking for a prescriptive definition of cult and culture that would cover every cult and every culture, and I don’t think you’re going to find one. Humans organize in complex ways that rarely align with strict definitions.

Cults tend to be defined by how they control their members. Cultures tend to form around similarities.

I don't like the overuse and misuse of Material UI – the paper-looking thing with raised textures and shadows. It takes a bit of work to make it look good, and many sites just drop in a CSS file and call it a day.

Dude, have you worked in tech? At all? It’s already horrendously overrun with men who step outside their space and make everyone’s day worse. I don’t begrudge women for being frustrated that it’s happening at the Grace Hopper conference.

Thanks for all the questions and I absolutely don’t think you’re being too negative! This was mainly made to scratch an itch I had, but I hope that other people find it useful too.
The main difference between this and plex_debrid is that this is set up out of the box to work without manual integration steps. You don’t have to copy the Plex API key around — simply sign into Plex and Overseerr, and my config script handles wiring your watchlist up to request content.
I’ve also built a high-quality media selection algorithm that I think is the best out there for getting the copies of media you want to make your users happy. Check out the docs on Media Profiles.
Putting everything in one container doesn’t necessarily break the mantra of using containers. I use containers all day at my job and in my personal clusters. What I’ve found is using tools like Docker Compose to distribute software makes it much harder for people to run my software on home servers like Unraid — and there wasn’t a technical reason I couldn’t bundle these into one container to make it easier. In this case, the services are pretty coupled and I don’t have much need to scale them up individually.
I haven’t built any automation for this yet, but my repo tracks the upstream sources for rclone, pms-docker, and Overseerr, and I’d like to pull in those updates as I cut new releases.

I have a "traditional" home server with Plex + *arr + torrent client set up. It's great, but I need to manage the storage space on my NAS and I have to wait a few hours between requesting media and watching it. Using Debrid with Torrentio means I don't have to wait for a download or find a place to store it.
Right now I run both Coaxist and my old Plex server in parallel.

You've identified the main benefit – Debrid services provide cached torrents for "instant" downloads. Streaming straight from a Debrid service's fileshare also means you don't need to buy drives or additional storage.
When you say Wasabi, do you mean the hosted S3-compatible cloud storage service?

I don’t have any plans at the moment but I welcome anyone who would like to fork the project for this. Happy to try and make things easy for you.

Hey folks. I've run a Plex instance on my home server for friends and family for a while now. I recently discovered how easy it was to use Stremio + Torrentio + Debrid, but all my users are already used to Plex, and I like to use the Plex app to download media to my phone before I fly somewhere on vacation. The [plex_debrid](https://github.com/itsToggle/plex_debrid) project made me wonder how easy it could be to use Plex with Debrid. Over the last few months I've been putting together [**Coaxist**](https://github.com/mplewis/coaxist), a **single Docker container** with Plex, Overseerr, Rclone, and Debrid support. Features include: * **Support for multiple Media Profiles:** e.g. grab 4K DV copies for home viewing, and 1080p copies for maximum compatibility * **It's just Plex:** use the Plex apps, share with other users, download for offline viewing * Plex watchlist and Overseerr request integration, out of the box – no copying API keys around * "Instant" downloads with Debrid caching support * Automatically refresh your Debrid files before they expire It's easy to get started: start the container, set your Debrid credentials and media profiles in the config, and sign into Plex and Overseerr. The Connector searches Torrentio for your requests and sends the files to Debrid, while Rclone mounts the media locally for Plex to serve. Check out the [Quick Start](https://github.com/mplewis/coaxist/blob/main/docs/quick-start.md) guide. This project is still in early stages – expect many breaking changes – but if you're brave, and have a Linux, Unraid, or NAS machine that can run Docker containers, I'd love for you to try this out and let me know what you think.
On my last visit to Japan, I brought home a cheap pair of reusable plastic chopsticks. The hard case they came with lets me toss them into my bag without worrying about them breaking, and usually I wrap a handkerchief or cloth napkin around the case. I use these chopsticks more often than I would have expected. I used to be a fork person, but I've converted – once I got used to using them, chopsticks turned out to work better for the things I'd otherwise eat with a fork. Today I ate some salad on the plane that I brought with me to the airport, instead of spending $8 on wilted lettuce. If you need a utensil, here are some options which I don't own but which seem nice (referral links): - [Plastic chopsticks – $8](https://amzn.to/3YOsCPR) - [Titanium spork – $15](https://amzn.to/3YTYzq4) I have something like this for camping, but the Light My Fire-brand spork seems way expensive these days.

This article introduced me to a bunch of wildlife hand signals that I hadn't yet learned.
Have you been to Thailand? Are you looking to visit someday? Share your travel plans, questions, blog posts, and ideas with us in !thailand@lemmy.globe.pub – also because I'll be planning a trip soon and I'd love your insight. 😉
👋🏼 Hello travelers! If you haven't already, please consider subscribing to !main@lemmy.globe.pub. It's where I will post server update news. You're also welcome to post in Main with anything that's on-topic for this server. If you're willing to share, I'd also love to read an intro post from you. I'm interested to hear how you found us and where your past and future travels are taking you. Thanks for being part of this community!
Hi everyone! I'm Matt, the admin of this instance. I put together Globe.pub after leaving Reddit and wishing that alternatives existed for the communities that I used to frequent there. I'm a software engineer in my work, so starting up a Lemmy server has been a good test of my skills. Some places I've been: - France: I visited every few years when I was growing up. My parents wanted me to meet my mom's side of the family, who moved from Manila to a village east of Paris when my grandparents moved there in their old age. I'm still trying to keep my French fresh. - Japan: I visited for the first time this year and I'm absolutely enthralled. I can't get enough of the modern cities and the proximity to beautiful nature. - Ireland: I have family in Cork that I love to visit, and Dublin is full of the loveliest people. I had a trip planned to Galway in March 2020 😬 and I'd like to see more of the countryside too. - Philippines: I visited once in 2010 and finally got back to see the family this year. These days I'm trying to travel internationally more – as much as my job allows – and I'm getting into scuba as an inexpensive adventure hobby. I'm looking forward to traveling to warm water locations to get those dives under my belt. I'd love to hear about you too – please post your own intro here in Main!
Hi folks – thanks for creating a new community! Thailand is on my list but I haven't gotten around to planning a trip yet. I'm excited to see what happens here. Say hi at !main@lemmy.globe.pub and be sure to reach out if you're looking for help with anything.
Hello travelers! I'm doing some brief server maintenance to update globe.pub to 0.18.4 and do some other networking housekeeping. Please expect some downtime over the next couple of hours.

Ine is a scenic fishing village of around 2,000 people which sits on a quiet south-facing bay. Spend some time staying in a boathouse right on the water and take in the tranquil ocean air.
What were your favorite little spots that weren't horribly touristy that you hope other people get to see? A couple of mine are: * Shimokitazawa - cute shopping district not far from Tokyo * Miyajima Island - beautiful island with tame deer, easy mountain hikes, and lovely temples, off the coast of Hiroshima via ferry * Kamakura - former capital of Japan with lots of temples, a historic electric railway that still runs antique passenger cars, and surfing at the beach. 1.5 hours south of Tokyo.

Sleep off your Kabukicho hangover on the Romancecar from Shinjuku to Hakone as you ride toward an onsen you can spend all day relaxing in. Not that I speak from experience.
I’m looking forward to: * A week-long liveaboard somewhere warm * Diving the sardine run at Moalboal, Philippines * Australia’s Gold Coast
