Hoping this helps someone in the future... (Likely myself when I forget all of this and reinstall.)

Setup: "OS install" of Jellyfin on Debian with package 10.10.7+deb11. Videos hosted on a FreeBSD and mounted with NFSv3.

When scanning libraries to find new videos, either the scan pauses midway through indefinitely, or completes quickly. CPUs are idle, several Jellyfin processes in state "D". No information logged in Jellyfin logs. One error in dmesg note about nfs lock files (one every few hours).

Can partly diagnose with these commands from https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/freebsd-v14-1-release-p3-nfsv3-no-lock-available.94531/ and user "tanis":

touch /data/test/myfile
# obtain nfs lock from FreeBSD client
lockf /data/test/myfile true && echo ok || echo nok
# obtain nfs lock from Linux client
flock /data/test/myfile true && echo ok || echo nok

If the flock hangs, then the fix is to disable NFS locking. Add "nolock" to the NFS mount options.

After remounting and starting the scan, the Jellyfin processes should produce a lot of CPU load and network traffic.

Discussion: Why did the scan work completely for one and only one folder? I suspect ffprobe was not invoked for the successful run, but my other folders have home movies and are not easily detected.

Is there a tested way to keep water from a very small pool safe week to week? Think of the ~20 cm deep hard plastic ones meant for children.

I can water the plants, but I would like to reuse the water all summer. I imagine a closed cycle container with a filter, pump, and chlorine in a 50 gal drum. While I could devise my own, it seems best not to.

Thanks!

There are more than 56,000 semi-truck drivers and another 18,000 light truck drivers in Minnesota, according to the state Department of Employment and Economic Development, meaning widespread layoffs and reductions in income could ripple throughout the greater economy.

What's more, the city and team are drastically reducing their request for state funding, down from the $394.6 million suggested in March to just $50 million in Thursday's proposal.

The Minnesota Republicans sponsoring the bill include Shane Mekeland (Clear Lake), Krista Knudsen (Lake Shore), Assistant GOP Floor Leader Walter Hudson (Albertville), Jeff Dotseth (Silver Township), Tom Murphy (Underwood), Pam Altendorf (Red Wing), Keith Allen (Kenyon), and Deputy Speaker Pro Tempore Isaac Schultz (Elmdale). Several have also sponsored a marginally less extreme bill (HF 3152) that would make administering mRNA vaccines a misdemeanor subject to a $500 penalty.

My house was resided, and my city doesn't do inspections. I have concerns about workmanship.

I am looking for ideas on what products should be produced locally. Not things that your area can do sn awesome job at and export. Rather things that should be locally produced near everyone.

Feel free to define "locally" as you wish. I am thinking with 5 miles, but with 200 is also good.

Please include your reasoning. Everything from shipping costs, to ownership "punch-ability" are great.

I will kick things off in the comments.
