I’m doing my part!

Phew, looks like my 6th grade education is finally paying off!

Imagine how wonderful it would be if your butthole could hoover up the shart that you accidentally squeezed out?

require a decade of fuck ups to reach its potential.

That’s quicker than people, heck I’m going on my 3rd decade and still not at my potential. Or so I like to tell myself.

You can also use something like handbrake to convert everything to 264 instead of redownloading everything. You can also set it up to convert after items are downloaded.

This is the only thing forwarded. As for devices the worst offender would be my Roku TV but I’m not sure how much of a security threat that actually would be. More of a privacy threat, hence running pihole.

My setup is pretty basic, only thing I have is a media server accessed locally, and a pi running pihole and pivpn that has a port forwarded on my router for remote access. The pi has password login disabled, and the port forward is set to the static IP set for the pi with my router. The router has the firewall set, but nothing on any other machine. Do I need more?

It seems that the consensus from all the comments is that you do in fact need a firewall. So my question is how does that look exactly? A hardware firewall device directly between modem and router? I using the software firewall on the router enough? Or, additionally having software firewall installed on all capable devices on the network? A combination of the above?

This is exactly what I am looking for, thanks!

The hero we need, not the hero we deserve.

We solved the mystery!

I am shocked! Shocked!

No, wait, the other one, not surprised at all.

You want to access your home media, at home, without contacting Plex servers first? Blasphemy!

This is the way.
