All this guy does is fly around with his girlfriend on private jets, cover up the Epstein files, and take credit for the investigative work of field agents. And he even regularly fucks that up.

A screenshot of an email from my Nextcloud server informing me version 32.0.1 is available.

#Nextcloud 32.0.1 is available according to my server. The changelog hasn't been posted yet, but the update is available, at least if you're using the manual tarball version with your own database/webserver setup like I am. I'm not sure about the availability of the snap or docker versions.

My Minecraft, Luanti and Kiwix service files were created by me to start with, so they're fine. So Anubis is the only thing left that I'll have to manually edit its service file after each update. I wonder if there's a config file for it to accomplish something similar.

A partial screenshot of my /etc/systemd/system/jellyfin.service.d/jellyfin.service.conf file, showing that I've added a "RootDirectory = /mnt/jellyfinchroot" directive.

Brainstorming ways to minimize manual work keeping my custom systemd services inside their chroot jails even thru package upgrades that might overwrite the systemd service file. Turns out #Jellyfin has a config file that allows you to modify the default systemd service file directives.
