Genuine question. Why doesn’t anyone Google their errors anymore? Or if you’re super lazy, copy pasting the screenshot into chatgpt or grok?

IMHO movies and other entertainment pieces should be judged/ranked based on how much they are pirated. Oscars-schmoscars!
The error sounds like your sqlite database file is borked, misplaced or not named correctly. Make sure to shut down Plex on the source Windows machine fully before copying it over. Also make sure the path to the database file is valid - not sure where Plex stores that. Also keep in mind that Linux paths and file names are cAsE SenSiTiVE, so if your db file was named “Plex.db” on Windows, and the Linux version of Plex expects “plex.db” - you will get an error.
Other issues to anticipate related to file/directory naming: library/metadata paths. You may need to redefine/rescan all your media libraries to fix that depending on how Plex handles transitions between platforms that use different path separators (Windows = \ and Linux/macOS = /) and case sensitivity (Windows and macOS = case INsensitive and Linux = case sensitive).
Also consider a DB backup/restore (feature built into Plex) may be a better way to transition vs. just copying the DB file over.
If you’re feeling adventurous, you can download a SQLite browser and take a peek at the Plex DB file. See if there are any red flags like paths to libraries that include Windows specific stuff like drive letters. That will probably break in Linux if just copied over. The backup/restore feature may account for that and actually try to take care of the differences… but that’s just a guess; I never tried this and have no experience with it.
Note: I never bothered to run Plex on anything other than Linux.
P.S. some here suggested using Docker (or Podman - probably better in the long run) to deploy Plex. I strongly recommend that option as well, since it abstracts a lot of the nuts and bolts that you no longer need to care about.
Not to sound dismissive, but this post is such a perfectly phrased AI prompt. 😂
Are you looking for an SSH client specifically? Given the price tag, you’re likely in iOS/iPadOS, in which case I suggest Shelly: https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/shelly-ssh-client/id989642999 It’s only 5 Canuckistani copecs ($5CAD) one time “tip” to the author to unlock “premium” mode which includes iCloud sync of profiles. Note that keys and passwords are not synced (that’s probably a good thing: keys don’t leave your device).
For a cross-platform option, Termius will do everything you want and more. It is a recurring subscription though. Note that it’s part of the Github student pack, so if you have a university/college email, you can sign up for that and get your pro subscription for free.
I think garbage collection is a thing that needs to be run on a regular basis. If you’re using the community edition of Seafile, you’ll need to shut down its services and run an offline garbage collection. If you get a pro license (I think up to 3 users are free), you can run the garbage collection online, i.e. without shutting down the service.

What did you expect? If you want a coffee, and not dirty asswater, go to an actual coffee shop.
The author has a Master’s in informatics. That’s pretty much like an MBA. I wouldn’t expect more than buzzword-bingo from someone like that.
Python? This will require “specialized hardware” just due to the interpreter overhead taking continuous screenshots of everything you do and indexing/storing them. Why bother implementing something like this using an interpreted language??
Only if he uses Linux and insists on anal as a form of contraception. 😂

I’ve been using them to report spammers (including companies who can’t be bothered to fix their mailing list unsubscription mechanisms). It works by parsing mail headers, identifying the origin of the email and submitting email abuse reports to the operators of the relays that processed the unwanted email.
Well, as a feminist, I’m choosing the wolves.
That’s a decent workaround for a laptop with a broken keyboard.
My guess is that some businesses get tax breaks from municipalities in exchange for filling office spaces with warm bodies. The idea is that people in office buildings support local businesses by buying lunch, and sometimes grabbing a pint after work.
I’m not trying to excuse this trend, in fact as an IT person myself I 100% agree with the sentiment, I’m just trying to share what I’ve been told.
Wow, beautiful analogy! I’m going to use that in my professional career if you don’t mind. Also with your permission I’d like to give you credit with a link to this comment, if that’s OK with you, of course.
I wonder if this has anything to do with Apple’s CSAM scanning. You know, hang on to the photos as evidence, and, for an added bonus, sell more iCloud storage because the “System Data” now exceeds the free iCloud data storage quota. Win-win!
If it is indeed a boneheaded mistake, then it’s probably because of over reliance on RPC-type calls from the front-end that displays the data, to the back-end that actually handles the data. User deletes photo, and the front-end, instead of actually deleting it, tells the backend to do it… and then hides the photo from view, maybe updates its index of photos marking them as “deleted” regardless of whether the backend actually deleted the photo.
Then an OS update comes along, and rescans the filesystem, and report a bunch of new photos to the front-end, that then happily add them to the GUI to the user’s surprise.
Modern APIs and software architectures are a bloated, unnecessarily complex mess, and this is the result.
Whoah, isn’t FUTO the non-profit that Louis Rossmann works for? This is great news!!
Actually the ad matches the article. To me the ad is “fringe” and it has infested the “mainstream” (CNN).
Well, the lazy answer is that if there’s a custom install mode, you don’t select the VC++ runtime components and just install the game.
