How to: feature chickenbits
buggy feature? rip it out  by setting any of the following environment variables to disable its associated bell or whistle,

| env-var              | what it does |
| -------------------- | ------------ |
| `PRTY_NO_DB_LOCK`    | do not lock session/shares-databases for exclusive access |
| `PRTY_NO_IFADDR`     | disable ip/nic discovery by poking into your OS with ctypes |
| `PRTY_NO_IMPRESO`    | do not try to load js/css files using `importlib.resources` |
| `PRTY_NO_IPV6`       | disable some ipv6 support (should not be necessary since windows 2000) |
| `PRTY_NO_LZMA`       | disable streaming xz compression of incoming uploads |
| `PRTY_NO_MP`         | disable all use of the python `multiprocessing` module (actual multithreading, cpu-count for parsers/thumbnailers) |
| `PRTY_NO_SQLITE`     | disable all database-related functionality (file indexing, metadata indexing, most file deduplication logic) |
| `PRTY_NO_TLS`        | disable native HTTPS support; if you still want to accept HTTPS connections then TLS must now be terminated by a reverse-proxy |
| `PRTY_NO_TPOKE`      | disable systemd-tmpfilesd avoider |
| `PRTY_UNSAFE_STATE`  | allow storing secrets into emergency-fallback locations |
