Less mentioned downside - digital rights management is significantly degraded in linux. Most commercial streaming apps/sites will work but but only at SD or 720p.

It’s a swordfish, get it?

This is the same business model that tech “startups” use, just at a vastly accelerated time table. Upend some existing market (in this case, several markets) by burning through cash at an unsustainable rate. Once your customers have been hooked, and/or the alternatives eliminated as competitors, you crank up the prices to try and make the business cashflow positive.

Easy, have your AI transcription agent be a third party that can consent so you have a majority! (/s… sorta)

which whicher would you most like to which?

They should turn Go Fund Me into a cage match or something. Let people donate against the cause and whichever group wins gets to pick where the money goes. The against group would have to pick a charity.

On my parent’s it doesnt render anything at all. Just shows the wallpaper.

Roku has had a big ad on the side for a while now? I’ve been blocking it with DNS.

“Extremism”

nope

Humans today are like 300% more biomass than every mammal on earth 100,000 years ago.

Yup, just got my dual diagnosis at 40. In the US you couldn’t even have a dual diagnosis until like 10 years ago. It doesn’t change my day to day much but it does make me feel better about failing when trying ADHD coping mechanics that just aren’t made for me. Now I can look for specific strategies.

The extent of the setup for Plex is to log in with your email and password, pick which shared libraries you want to be pinned to your home screen, and then browse. My parents in their 70s were able to figure it out and all I had to do from my end was grant them access to the libraries I wanted to share with a simple check box.

This.

Securely sharing is simpler on Plex. I can invite anyone with just an email and they have near instant access to an HTTPS encrypted service. I don’t have to deal with setting up a VPN, reverse proxy or ACLs (in the case of something like Tailscale).

i have to scroll halfway down the damn page but i do still get a dictionary response.

lmfao the cops charged him for not having a valid boat registration or life vests. amazing.

Because if I’m watching locally I dont need them, and if I’m watching remotely Plex already offers secure remote viewing 'out of the box`. They give every user an SSL certificate and a public accessible URL at app.plex.tv. They also handle secure user authentication. The new price is stupid, but Jellyfin is not a 1:1 replacement.

A gentle reminder that Jellyin more or less requires you to set up a reverse proxy and a secure VPN to use it outside of your home.

Right. By their argument it seems like China can get fucked because what are they gonna do, kidnap him and bring him to China to face charges?
