My experience was also that Plex is better at working around the limitations of Apple TV, compared to Jellyfin.

E.g., the native, built-in Apple TV video player expects everything in an MP4 container, and Plex appears to seamlessly repackage content into MP4, whereas you need to dig into the settings to force an MP4 container and force the native player on Jellyfin. Otherwise, Jellyfin will try to use VLCKit or some other player that has other issues (like with HDR content).

Apple TV also has very limited subtitle support in the native player, and Plex does better at accommodating that.

I'm assuming Jellyfin is closer to parity on hardware with more capable native players, though.
Yeah, Jellyfin is a fantastic server but their clients are very hit or miss, I just hook it up to kodi and have had basically no problems.
Right now I'm using SHA-256 because this project was originally written as a vibe sesh rage against the machine. The second reason is that the combination of Chrome/Firefox/Safari's JIT and webcrypto being native C++ is probably faster than what I could write myself. Amusingly, supporting this means it works on very old/anemic PCs like PowerMac G5 (which doesn't support WebAssembly because it's big-endian).

I'm gonna do experiments with xeiaso.net as the main testing ground.
Agreed, it seems inevitable. Unfortunately I think it will also result in further centralization & consolidation into a handful of "trusted" megacorps.

Ember is one of those frameworks that isn't as "flashy" as the latest and greatest javascript frameworks, but it just keeps quietly working and adopting new techniques from the more popular frameworks on a consistent and easy to follow schedule.

> 1. Before removing a feature in a major version, it lands as a deprecation in the previous major. A deprecation is only enabled by default once we have a clearly documented migration strategy that covers the use-cases of the old feature.

> 2. When we ship a new major, the only thing it does it flip deprecations targeting that new major into errors.

While this might sound reasonable on the surface, here's the thing: Not only are there hardly any homegrown options in the EU, but the EU is actively regulating against such homegrown alternatives.

At the same time, people regularly call for the authorities to pitch in and provide such alternatives.

There are numerous ridiculously expensive - and now defunct - projects (e.g., Quaero and Theseus, just to mention two of those) that have tried to achieve something to that effect already, with little - if anything - to show for.

Why people seem to think this is going to work this time around is beyond me.
Grease: An Open-Source Tool for Uncovering Hidden Vulnerabilities in Binary Code
Money is only a bookkeeping tool for complex societies. The aim of the owner class in a worker-less world would be accumulation of important resources to improve their lives and to trade with other owners (money would likely still be used for bookkeeping here). A wealthy resource-owner might strive to maintain a large zone of land, defended by AI weaponry, that contains various industrial/agricultural facilities producing goods and services via AI.

They would use some of the goods/services produced themselves, and also trade with other owners to live happy lives with everything they need, no workers involved.

Non-owners may let the jobless working class inhabit unwanted land, until they change their minds.

Just as a reference point. I bought Plex Pass Lifetime in 2014 (June) for $74.99. So I've already had just shy of 11 years of value for $74.99 which is an absolute steal (~$0.50/mo and it only gets better as time goes on).

Gee, wish I could abuse copyrighted data for profit…

What makes AI so special?

Radio stations are important. Few would say they shouldn't exist. Yet, we don’t give them a hallpass to violate copyright laws. They make agreements and pay royalties like the rest of us.

Ironically, from a copyright perspective, there might be an even greater argument that AI models should be forced to license copyrighted data and allowed to stay closed source as part of their value proposition.

Of course, in practice, they would just pirate the data and keep it closed source.

What we really need is the AI model equivalent of “reproducible builds” in software. Or how else would one prove that the model was trained on a particular data set?

Outside of disruptive measures like requiring accounts, captchas, or payment, one possible solution would be to use AI against itself by training machine learning models to monitor, flag, and issue challenges to web requests exhibiting "bot-like" behavior. This way, not all web traffic would be disrupted with challenges until the machine learning models have reason to believe the traffic is coming from a bot.

I think the surfaces are mated on the edges, there would be a bend on the edges if you were to install a flange there. That would probably look weird. It's cold rolled steel which has nice properties but makes it difficult to install flanges. It's a hard look to achieve which makes it technically impressive but does require such compromises such as using glue.

While I don't like the Cyber Truck design aesthetically or technically the manufacturing techniques used to create it are impressive. I do wonder if the manufacturing was done this way to have an option to make cheap military vehicles at scale, like how VW factories are now considering being repurposed to produce military vehicles.

>What's best for society is if everyone who's wealth is tied up in property takes a hit to their wealth so that housing becomes affordable and loses it's status as primary wealth store, but that would be devastating in the short term to the middle class and therefore completely politically untenable.

This is true if the "hit" on wealth is linearly distributed. But since income growth is not linearly distributed (it goes up with wealth), it's reasonable that the tax (or whatever form it takes) should also be progressive, perhaps to the point where it excludes properties under $1M, for instance, thus sparing the bulk of the middle class.
Yeah I agree with this. If these tradeoffs were articulated and then everyone was allowed to personally buy "foreign aid bonds" then people could put their money to work in what mattered to them.

Instead the whole country funds programs that half of them don't trust, regardless of who is in charge.

Angular's fine, new versions come out regularly, often improving DX. Although I must admit that deprecation and breaking changes mentioned in the article sometimes make keeping up with updates kinda annoying. On the other hand, I'd never return to a home grown framework. Most of my problems nowadays come from business requirements and lackluster IT.
> What you can't do is having a Musk style temper tantrum and fire someone at will because you feel like that.

This is kind of double-sided coin. Like, people are feeling protected and have a sense of security and that's what defines Europe. On the other hand, businesses hands are tied and they cannot scale dynamically as in the US.

> follow a defined process

And that's the main problem in the EU. There's a process for everything and sometimes it's a burden and limits the abilities to change things.
Ah, yet another archive format. Well, at least it's not .ar (I still find it amusing that .tar has never managed to supplant it for the static library storage).
Front-end dev here.

I hear from the b/e people about containers, serverless, lambdas, ORMs, queues, schedulers, caches, pipelines (ok, I use these too), databases, API gateways. Oh, but it's podman now, not Docker. And they're moving everything off AWS to Azure. And there's three versions of the API my f/e needs to talk to still in production. And every micro-service depends on a different version of Node. Apart from the one that's in Ruby and the stuff from that department who only use .NET.

I don't believe this promised land of clarity, comfort and purity exists. It's just mess on both sides of the internet connection trying to solve different parts of the problem of turning user needs into money.
I wonder what usually travels if one travels with a burner phone (a phone obviously barely previously used) to the US, or in other places where one would not want to risk their phone getting confiscated. Is there any experience on that? Should one try to build some plausible deniability on that (eg use lightly a phone for a while for it to at least appear used)?
It's always the same song and dance.

We need to move away from US tech? Ok Great, where to? The European AWS or Google Cloud? Those don't exists.

What about the European Stripe which is a big pillar of the new digital economy? Still no.

What about the payment cards? Mastercard, Visa, Amex? Where are the EU alternatives?

The EU is all talk and no bite. We fine US companies for breaking the law but instead of using that cash to foster innovation, we use it to hire more paper pushers in Brussels to come up with the next idiotic regulation like the bottle cap one.

The best time to replace US tech was 10 years ago but that did not happen and it's not going to happen now.

Yeah, I've had to mitigate this problem too, on a tiny forum serving a very niche audience. It was brought to its knees by a handful of LLM bots that completely ignored robots.txt.

Thankfully, these bots were easy enough to block at the firewall level, but that may not work forever.
The special thing about plex for me is it is effortless. I run the server, and without any port forwarding it just works. Then my in-laws can sign up, and just like that they can stream that movie I totally own legitimately... And I don't need to walk them through entering my IP, a port number. They just sign up and it works.

All of that has a cost. It costs money to maintain, it costs money to develop, it costs money to host.

It's a commercial product. They have been inching more towards monetizing their product for a long time. Being able to pay for a lifetime is a huge win imo. I wish more companies offered that.
Nice work :)

One piece of feedback: Could you add some explanation (for humans) what we're supposed to do and what is happening when met by that page?

I know there is a loading animation widget thingy, but the first time I saw that page (some weeks ago at the Gnome issue tracker), it was proof-of-work'ing for like 20 seconds, and I wasn't sure what was going on, I initially thought I got blocked or that the captcha failed to load.

Of course, now I understand what it is, but I'm not sure it's 100% clear when you just see the "checking if you're a bot" page in isolation.

There's not much to see here I believe - Tesla's valuation is approximately where it was before the election, and that's generally true for tech stocks (Tesla generally moves with the NASDAQ). It made a big swing in the last month, but the news around this is classic post-hoc narrative.

Edit: I meant the crashing valuation, not this particular news, apologies for the confusion. I do think that government officials promoting stocks is a terrible precedent to set.

AFAIK DeLorean's are not cold rolled steel. CyperTrucks 1.4-1.8mm 1018 cold rolled versus 0.8mm 304 DeLorean. The thinner steel on the DeLorean makes is easier to work with enabling larger panels which need fewer flanges. It seems the theory as to why the panels are so thick is that they do provide some structural stiffness.

The early prototypes had 3mm thick panels so it's likely some design decisions were left over form that.
I guess I never considered that these kinds of protest organizations can be held responsible for lost revenue.

It seems like there's a thread connecting the Citizens United case / super PACs to organizations like Greenpeace- if a corporation's (non-persons) right to donate money is protected by freedom of speech, is Greenpeace's right to organize against a corporation protected speech as well?

I can't find anything that specifies that they alleged any illegal activity by Greenpeace.

Seems like otherwise any company can claim damages when a non-profit they don't like is organizing against them.
