Same. Illegally backed up, in my case, because the DMCA is ridiculous and prohibits backing things up unless you crack the DRM personally. But I don't care, as that is a stupid law and I have the moral right to rip my discs if I want. But the content was legally purchased originally which is what matters imo.
Yeah, that’s not much better.

Just tried it on my laptop. It's pretty amazing. I gave it a 50 second clip of a friend speaking and in about 4 minutes it produced an audio clip in his voice with whatever words I wanted. I'm seriously impressed.

I've tried everything but ended up using the VLC app on my Apple TV and just accessing my NAS through Samba. Not as sophisticated (library management) as Jellyfin or Plex but performance wise it's probably the best one.
Hey! Pinguin doesn't eat baguette!

And there is not much military, it's more about scientists here than military people (about one hundred permanent people, space/climate scientists and biologist). The island is full of basalt yes, like most of the island, and the island is BIG. But if you are gonna nuck a french island, you should ask the French.

And it's the more important French island of the French Southern and Antarctic Lands (after Adélie Land if you count it as an island).

Btw, we should be able to make the bomb ourself.
I think what is potentially even sadder is the idea that there might be life but we're all on islands and can't get off / communicate.

As far as discovering life elsewhere, our vision / reach is so small that I'm not bothered by it at this point.
It also costs twice as much while using several times the amount of energy.

we are looking at it from the lens of a post Purdue media bias

include me out of your of your assumptions, please. I knew the Purdue pharma stuff was bad from the get-go, and it's not because I'm prudish about drugs or a huge believer in regulating everything to the point of paralysis. It was because the combination of high physical potential for abuse + strong economic incentives to monetize that leads to bad results. Wars have literally been fought over this in the past.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opium_Wars

You might be familiar with Adam Smith's famous economic example of the pin factory. Here's Rudyard Kipling's description of an opium factory operated by the British colonial power in 19th century India, an equally brilliant illustration of commercial logic but applied in service of perverse incentives.

Every time I drive by a Tesla, the word Nazi pops into my mind.

It's that type of word association and related customer behavior that will be a growing problem for them.

I think an early indicator will be monitoring the secondhand market to determine if there are increasing levels of Tesla's as people move to other brands.
Whenever holding press conferences in the Oval Office, the government creates a nonpublic forum [1] and invokes freedom of the press (because a news organization who is allowed to attend should be able to share what happened). The government can deny a news organization entry based on the subject of the speech (e.g. no reporting about the Gulf of Mexico/America, regardless of the name used) but cannot deny entry based on the news organization's viewpoint (e.g. thinking that Gulf of Mexico is the more appropriate name allowed, thinking that Gulf of America is the more appropriate name not allowed).

> 1. Are we allowed to set our system clock to a time in the future?

These rules were written to apply to console games, which typically didn't have a system clock, or didn't use it to affect gameplay. (It's also not clear that it was even known at the time that the system time was used as the RNG seed.)

> 4. Can two segments of a segmented run come from different savefiles?

Generally not. Otherwise, a "run" would degenerate into starting the game, saving at the first opportunity, then loading a save which has almost completed the game and finishing it from there. That's clearly not a meaningful or interesting competition. The expectation is that segments are used as "checkpoints" in what could have, in principle, been a single-segment run.

For some games where there's very little state saved - e.g. if progress through the game consists entirely of how many levels you've completed - there's some room for bending this rule. For a game with complex state like Diablo, though? Absolutely not.
It’s an excellent OSS project. One of the few I have donated to.

In my experience, the majority of people who complain loudly about Jellyfin are tied up in the Plex ecosystem and cannot fathom leaving it for some reason.

I mean, imagine living with ad-supported streaming content being injected into your private instance by default and having to tell your users to opt-out of that. Admittedly, it is hard to leave such a slippery slope of an ecosystem, especially as a paying customer.
Sorry, that doesn't compute.

If you have a 25k/year software dev, and you pair it up with AI, now you have two 25k/year software devs at best.

It's sort of capable of producing the same crap as the least experienced, least motivated developers.
This may be seen as satire, but webdev as a phenomenon really is a collection of all sorts of poor reinventions and crutches, for which there’s naturally billions of lines of code, which AI loves to have. It will replace webdevs as is. The downside is that we’ll never make a step forward with that (not that webdevs planned to do so anyway).
Me too! Super easy to use and run. Has a ton of features and feels polished
You are correct that US exporters don’t get a VAT refund because they don’t pay VAT and corporate tax exists in both systems. But US exporters still face a tax burden that EU exporters do not. Introducing the VAT would fix this particular issue but it doesn’t fix everything. Trump isn’t wrong that the EU system is giving an edge to their exporters. In the US, VAT has been seen as regressive and hurts lower income consumers more. Changing to VAT would be politically difficult and those major changes to the US tax code have been resisted by Congress. US could offer credits on exports to act sort of like the VAT system. I am not sure what kind of impact that would have. That tax would still have to be collected elsewhere. Or corporate taxes could be reduced on exports.
> As far as battery capacity goes, that's also sketchy because ERCOT is allowing dangerous risky lithium packs to be installed in a tightly packed together industrial space optimized way that could result in disaster when one unit catches fire, spreading to the whole site.

Completely false. There have been fires at in battery storage systems. They have never, ever escaped the containment of the metal unit that comprises a given module. There is really no mechanism for a fire to spread either.
It’s not obvious from the website, but Rob Pike and Andrew Gerrand started work on Upspin after stepping back from the Go team. I suspect that many of the folks early to Go have at least occasionally checked in on Upspin.

I switched from Plex to Jellyfin/Infuse for three reasons:

1) better tone mapping, allowing me to watch HDR movies on SDR without it looking bad.

2) Plex, on my variety of clients, had regular issues with audio out of sync. I’m very sensitive to this and it drove me nuts. I have no issues with Jellyfin. I fiddled with all kinds of platform and Plex settings but couldn’t find a solution that solved it for good.

3) It’s easier to access Jellyfin over Tailscale. Plex’s normally clever way of exposing itself to the Internet gets in the way. It’s not impossible though.

Having said all this, Plex has better client UIs by far. They’re well organized, feature rich, and generally bug free. I still run Plex and plan to at least for the DVR functions.
The biggest thing that keeps me away from Plex alternatives is the simplicity ("it works everywhere on everything") and the experience ("it looks nice and feels polished").

There was a point where I could overlook some of these things but watching media is something that I want to feel slick and personal, and troubleshooting really kills that for me.

Plex + AppleTV for me and my folks has been a rock solid setup for us.

I really appreciate alternatives (especially OSS) like Jellyfin though and take a gander at them ~once a year.
There's no need to draw a discrete line and say it's inappropriate to be on the wrong side of it. People should be able to live where they choose. But people should also pay actuarially fair insurance premiums and market-driven prices for energy and other services, based on those risks and the associated cost to serve them. That's not happening today, because market distortions created by government entities force people in lower-risk areas to cross-subsidize expenses for people in higher-risk areas.
If you don't like it, just edit the open-source code to point to a locally hosted open-source llm.
I mean, I don't disagree that those things are silly but I haven't had to keep turning them off. I turned them off once, years ago when they were introduced, and they have never come back. I don't find that to be so onerous that it has kept me from enjoying the software. I have my misgivings about the direction the company is going, but at least for now they haven't ruined the core use case so I'm content.
Because they are not able to deduct US state sales taxes on business inputs from the final VAT. While Europeans can deduct their local (VAT) taxes on business inputs.

> Most of the systems I build use a database on which all logic depends, and often a network connection.

Why do you believe this is relevant? Unit tests target units of code, and check if the unit of code verifies specific invariants for specific combinations and ranges of input values. The concept of a network or a database does not exist in unit tests. In fact, you are expected to abstract away these aspects.

> I've worked on systems where these aspects were mocked, and they eventually grind to a halt because of the effort required to make the tiniest change.

This scenario is totally unrealistic if you knew what you are doing.

The fact alone that you're talking about spinning up a database in the context of unit tests already raises red flags.

Even if somehow you're talking about integration and end-to-end tests, none of the perceived problems you're mentioning are even a challenge, let alone a problem.

> Given these pieces, it's easy to write integration tests that run fast enough and give a lot of bang for the buck.

That's perfectly fine. It's besides the point though, and completely ignores the whole point of unit tests, which is to have a bunch of fast tests that check if your code continues to do the right thing between changes. Unit tests also compel developers to think through how they create/update code to prevent them from introducing handled scenarios.

There are many reasons why the test pyramid is a thing, and why the unit test layer includes far more tests than any other layer.
Your European competitor will be able to deduct all their local VAT taxes on business inputs but you won’t be able to deduct your local sales taxes on your inputs.
Russia has elections, but the elections don't matter. The elections are ritualized consent for a despotic state.

American elections are already ritualized. You can't really vote for an anti-oligarch/regulate corporations candidate unless you're in a couple districts. There are very few "rule of law" candidates. There's no voting based way to get congress persons to stop trading stock.

I think there will be the performance of voting in 3.75 years, but even less substance to it than we already have.

The current government has shown they're more than willing to weaponize the DOJ and other departments against people and speech they don't like.

See the AP News incident this week where the White House banned AP from the WH press pool for publishing the words Gulf of Mexico. Seriously.

Or the weaponization of corruption charges against NYC Mayor Eric Adams.

Private companies will not be exempt from the fascist retaliation. If Apple or Microsoft is hosting something they perceive as a threat, they will exert pressure to take it down - constitution or laws be damned.

It’s great. A stock Nvidia shield 2019 tube (!) plays 4K HDR/DV DTS content without stutter or issues with passthrough an AVR which is impressive. I can't say Kodi and various forks were able to do that, at least in the past. Lots of griping about the tube in general as well but it manages without transcoding.
Same thing that praise does. It's a discussion board, there's nothing wrong with people discussing the shortcomings of a project as well as its good points.
> Moss Landing, Ca that recently went up in flames completely destroying the entire plant and dumping toxic chemicals into the local estuary.

While the Moss Landing BESS does seem to have been one of the worst built anywhere on the planet, the recent fire there did not (a) "completely destroy the entire plant" nor (b) "dumping toxic chemicals into the local estuary".

When a modern vehicle (let alone a manufactured house) goes up in flames (which happens fairly often), it releases significantly more toxic gases than a BESS fire.

You're talking about Al Gore discussing climate change, right?
More interesting view. Will the web change again. Will everything just be thin veneer in front of AI. Why even develop anything, but a frontend for AI and then do everything with AI...

Maybe idea of using AI to develop anything is going to die and instead it is just setting up AI that everyone then has to use...
Simple answer No.

Yes, but this person is not involved with Rust for Linux.

Yeah, define productive.

Because I suspect that comes with learning a lot less in the process and lower quality output.
> Could you relink them? I don't see anything, and I don't think you could show it is to the same extent as in the UK.

No. I’ve said my piece and I’m done.

And it isn’t even happening to extent you keep claiming. There’s been lots of evidence posted to prove that point.

> Then why do cops keep showing up for wrongthink?

They don’t.

And I know you’ll follow up with some unverifiable linked to highly disreputable sources which are several years out of date.

So let’s just close this argument off by saying you think you know better than everyone else despite not living in the UK nor reading either up-to-date nor reputable sources.

And this is precisely why this meme of the UK policing thought persists: because people form an opinion based off silly headlines and then are too singleminded to listen to the full facts.

I honestly can’t be bothered any longer on this. I’ve been actively involved in politics around precisely these kinds of issues, but of course you know better than me because it fits your own narrative about how your own country can’t also be going down the shitter.
We never stacked cups, I'm too old for that, I barely know what that is.

> hoards of unnecessary security features

I've witnessed first hand how incredibly necessary those security features really are.

For example, installing mail server software on either Windows or Linux is trivial.

Actually operating a mail domain of any import securely in the face of determined attackers, dumbass insiders that will click anything, and constantly changing anti-SPAM technologies and standards is a full-time job all by itself.

This is why businesses rely on Microsoft 365 or G Suite.
At least the first quote is political and essentially casts the "other side" as an enemy rather than merely an opponent. This is not uncommon to use this strategy in political speech, and it is done rather well (and probably deliberately) here, but it is not an innocuous turn of phrase.

The second quote at least refers to a time when police had to play a defensive role against, once again, an enemy. This whole paragraph gives a clear vision of police having a military role (eg "fallen officers").

I didn't know that expression before, but the examples I see, (and its origin as an analogy to the thin red line) give it a connotation that is not neutral. The thin blue line is a metaphorical line between the maintainers of a certain order and a common enemy.

Using this expression in the context of kernel maintenance is at least somewhat clumsy.
That's insane.

You would likely lose absolutely nothing by throwing away most of it, and gain a lot.
our time still has value, even if the developer of the (often time-wasting app) isn't remunerated. I don't have a bone to pick with JellyFin, but there have been FOSS apps that are best avoided and it's fully within our rights to signal that to others.
I watch Congress on CNN. Yes.
I’m not forced to use any of those and when turned off, never came back on. This is a commonly mentioned con by jellyfin…proponents, but I fail to see how turning a setting off is more cumbersome than the jellyfin setup as a whole. My users and I are more than satisfied with plex and their updates
I love jellyfin but their web model is just bizarre.

Why on earth, when you go to 192.168.whatever:8096 does it ask you what server you want to connect to? Like.. THE ONE SERVING THE PAGE.

Just now I decided to connect to Jellyfin over tailscale and it's asking me to add a server; on 100.xxx, which is the jellyfin server which served the UI. And it doesn't seem to want to accept any answer as to what the server URL is.
I appreciate that! It was a really fun project to be part of.
Not entirely sure it's a hard fact but this is definitely an example of bias in an AI system.

More reason to decouple and think for ourselves.
I have first hand experience of being addicted to benzos and drinking at the same time. I could have died. This was the Heath Ledger era, so I knew what could happen, but benzo addiction is so horrible that I didn’t care. I would go to bed some nights not knowing if I’d wake up. Fuck it. At least I could sleep.

Would that be user error, or would it be the doctor’s fault for not telling me how addictive the benzos were? I was mentally ill. He told me to take them every day. I didn’t take them excessively. I took them as prescribed. It was only after the addiction got out of control that I started drinking again. Mentally ill people make bad decisions. The doctor made no effort to ensure I was safe. He kept upping my dose.

It’s worth watching the documentary “As Prescribed”[0], which is about benzo addiction. A lot of people go through what I went through. Some don’t survive. We blame drug dealers for ODs but not psychiatrists. Why?
