Nope, it doesn't work that way. You have to umount it. You could reboot after removing it from fstab, but that's a bigger hammer than necessary.

You need to move the service file to the right directory, for starters.

Nope, they should not be executable.

Heh, typing YAML anywhere is squinty business. :⁠-⁠)

I use syncthing all over the place for this sort of thing. I have some sync directories that are multi way synced across multiple devices, others that are one-way drop targets to a specific device, others that are for operations like backing up photos. It's quite excellent with a good sync algorithm that rarely results in conflicts.

Another suggestion for Darktable. It handles this case of mixed types transparently. It's a big thing to learn, but extremely powerful and capable, and you don't have to know all the corners of it, just enough for your workflow.

Address already in use is the key - something else has already bound to that address:port combination. Next step is to find out what process is listening on it. Try ss, netstat, lsof to name a few hints.

It is a bit confusing and hard to untangle. There is CPU and GPU transcoding. From my experience (running Plex on Linux for 7 or 8 years) I can tell you CPU transcoding does not work with Ryzen, GPU transcoding does work with Nvidia. That's all I can tell you though, because that's the hardware I have.

ESPHome is amazing - there's so much you can do without writing a single line of code.

I have built a few projects around the platform - a boiler monitor that tells me temperatures and state of zone valves, an energy monitoring system tracking electricity usage and solar export, and a hot tub mod that inhibits the heater to reduce grid import and maximize self consumption of solar. They have all been rock-solid stable.

ZHA here. I picked it since it's a bit easier to set up with less bits. It works for me, so I didn't see a reason to change it. I have done channel changes a couple of times with no issue - maybe I just got lucky!

FreeCAD. It's fantastic but takes some getting used to. I recommend the Ondsel fork - it's still free and open source except for the cloud storage which you can ignore. Ondsel includes some newer features and some interface changes.

When I'm forced to, and not before then. X works perfectly well so there's no reason for me to switch to something else with less features.
