Well, if this isn’t a sign to get off those VPNs in favour of Mullvad, I don’t know what is. They’re clearly big enough corporations to be targeted - time will tell if they’re gonna fold like one

That’s good to hear - I rely on HW transcoding for a couple situations and have heard from a couple Github issues that it’s not as good on Jellyfin - but that may not be the case now. Best thing I can probably do is set it up and see how it fares on my library!

*or one of Israel’s hired foreign militia

I’m just pissed off we let America have so much power over the world as it is. They’re one country, for fuck sake, not the World Police.

I’m not qualified enough to answer that, but…

I tried setting up calls and while STUN/TURN works in WAN, but not LAN, Element are supposed to be making a replacement that makes voice and video calls entirely E2EE, aka Livekit, which I’ve completely failed to get working. So far I’ve given up on improving my instance’s features and stick to Element Classic. I hope you get it running well!

You mean when they went closed source? I know Jellyfin is all open source but apparently rougher UX all round… and Emby is miles better than Plex, not least because Plex has a scalp-worthy cost and too many paywalled features. Jellyfin to me is a purist alternative - libre software is ideal but you start to get a much weaker product.

I’m not queer, I’m “Jew and other”

Yeah they worked within like 5m, less with walls. Tbh a fob with a loud buzzer was more effective

I’ve found smaller, cheaper alternatives by TrackR and Findr, but a promising yet expensive alternative is Chipolo - supports Apple Find My, Google Find My Device, and Chipolo companion app, however the tracking data is supposedly E2EE

What annoys me is that there were thin (~2mm) sticker-type Bluetooth tags about 15 years ago and cost a hell of a lot less (£10 for 3) than fucking AirtagsTile. No battery, just a passive coil that could be found with Bluetooth signal and an app that shows how close it is. Only I can’t find anything on them, so it’s little more than a conspiracy

I don’t recognise the state law as a righteous law anyway - there are more important laws than the opinionated statements of a few hundred aging or dead men. State law might govern the low-income population but it does not govern or define fact or reality, as reality is irrefutable and empirical.

By labeling Palestine Action as a terrorist group, without delving into the broadness of their own definition, the government imply to the public that the group is cruel or manipulates using terror, which is false as PA do not participate in cruelty.

It’s okay, she’s already failed as a person

My local restaurants serve milkshakes for $8 so, not as bad

That’s cost of living, a separate measurement, and is also a significant factor.

bro. Fucking – Think about it. Klarna pay in 3 installments divide the cost by 3 and take payments monthly. Month A, you pay one third. Month B you pay one third of months A and B. By month C onwards you’re consistently paying three thirds or 100% of the rent. You’d only defer yourself the value of one month’s rent over the span of two months. Pointless.

“Content filtering” is just corporate jargon for subjective censorship, dynamically and discriminately restricting access to knowledge. I abhor all censorship.

And said data will never be used for fake CSAM or a library for the powerful to handpick their next victims

Gmail is one of the most, if not the most, annoying recipients to avoid the spam category. My ISP lists their non-business IPs on Spamhaus PBL because they’ve monetised having a static IP and decided email servers aren’t for residents. (But I’ve snoozed – they haven’t been the highest rated ISP for years and the new highest, Zen, is much better than EE)

I do this with @duck.com except it’s free, strips trackers where possible, and supports generating any number of alias addresses that can be disabled. For those who don’t want to spend $250 but still want forwarding security

Fatal police shootings in the UK are getting more common. In 2019 one man was “lawfully murdered” because an officer said the victim’s mobile phone looked like a handgun. In 2024 it was announced the officer would not be prosecuted. Not one police officer has been found guilty of illegal murder as of yet.
