There are no good movies anymore.

Counting Dogs And Broken Films
Athena apparently knows exactly how many treats she’s supposed to get, while my dad’s old home movies proved a little less cooperative. Between updating my genealogy site and repairing a broken 8mm film, it was a surprisingly busy quiet week.

Although I am going to quibble with some of its choices for Halloween/horror movies
I don’t know that I consider “Predator” a horror movie
OTOH - Dellamorte Delamore (“Cemetery Man”) hohohohoh, oh fuck yeah that movie is messed up ❤️😆

Athena apparently knows how to count. At least, she knows when I short her one treat.
Meanwhile, I upgraded my genealogy site and managed to break one of Dad’s old 8mm films during digitization. Fortunately, it broke at a splice, and I found a clever way to repair it.

Since we're on the topic of “disk almost full":
tmutil listlocalsnapshotdates / |grep 20|while read f; do tmutil deletelocalsnapshots $f; done
Deletes lokal time machine snapshots
Another good candidate may be iChat History at ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.iChat
All messages including pictures and movies of the last like 10 years are stored there. So if you use iChat (aka Messages) a lot this is BIG.

Ok, I gripe about Plex, but this is kinda cool. It has a Halloween playlist it created off the movies on my media server.

It took me about 1 to 2 hours and a #RaspberryPi 4 to set up my own #Jellyfin installation.
This is basically a „private #Spotify“ with your own music (also handles movies/shows but I‘m not using that). With Manet, there‘s also a very slick iOS app to use with the Jellyfin server.
