It was purchased a while ago by a less than reputable company. But the service was court tested no log. I’ve not had issue… but the risk could still be there that they’ve started logging.

Edit: Can always set an exit point in another country so that its unlikely that logs can be pulled regardless.

Edit2: oh and its scriptable to grab the port assigned from the pia app and feed it to qbittorent :chef’s kiss:

people like to shit on PIA. but they still support port forwarding.

if you can play an item back. you can enumerate it.

All of these “vulnerabilities”, require already having knowledge of the ItemIDs, and anyone without it poking around will get banned.

Which are simply MD5 hashes… You can precompile (rainbow tables) those. The “knowledge” here to get a valid video stream is “What path is the file on” which is pretty standardized. This is a good way to have a major movie studio’s process server knocking on your door.

you’ll have to put your Jellyfin server on the Internet.

Don’t.

Does no one care about power consumption?

It takes several SSDs to make up the capacity difference between an HDD.

I run 62 16TB HDDs. To make up the same capacity in SSDs I need 2-4x the bays. I don’t know of any cheap systems that can hold ~250 bays of ssds.

So an SSD that may only take 1-3w all day… 2-4x that is already equal to the HDD regardless. You’re not going to make any ROI metric here.

I’ll have a map where you have to prevent a nuclear meltdown

Who would want to play a game where there’s nothing to do?

In every nuclear reactor we’ve ever had issues with it took ignoring engineers or specifically bypassing normal operations procedures to cause.

In your game… the answer would be “do nothing”. Game over, you win.

Yeah point to me where I said this was the fault of the Rubes? Because I didn’t say that.

I didn’t say you did… But the original article DOES try to paint it all on the Republicans. You know…

FCC Republican opposes regulation of data caps with analogy to coffee refills

I was taking your point and adapting it specifically to my thoughts on the original article.

Mostly correct take IMO. I don’t blame ISPs for trying. I blame government (and not necessarily just federal) regulations/regulators for allowing it.

I grew up in NY. We paid a boatload in taxes to make fiber happen everywhere. IT. NEVER. HAPPENED.

NY is strongly Democrat. Acting like Republicans are solely the problem is asinine, and nothing stops states from enacting their own laws within the state. If California and NY made it happen. Guess what would basically happen throughout the whole country?

Not really? I’ve never gone to Youtube for the content it tries to shove on me on the homepage. I always went straight to the subscription page… And now on my invidious instance, that’s the primary loaded page. I still only go to “trending” and “for you” once in a blue moon.

So I keep seeing people reference this… And I found it curious of a concept that LLMs have problems with this. So I asked them… Several of them…

Outside of this image… Codestral ( my default ) got it actually correct and didn’t talk itself out of being correct… But that’s no fun so I asked 5 others, at once.

What’s sad is that Dolphin Mixtral is a 26.44GB model…
Gemma 2 is the 5.44GB variant
Gemma 2B is the 1.63GB variant
LLaVa Llama3 is the 5.55 GB variant
Mistral is the 4.11GB Variant

So I asked Codestral again because why not! And this time it talked itself out of being correct…

Edit: fixed newline formatting.

And sometimes even really simple ones.

The vast majority of rural areas.

What does 300 students with cellphones do as a lifeline in any event during the school day that would actually warrant it?

I don’t think any ban is saying that they can’t have the phones in their locker, off, for use after school hours.

What I do find funny,

Fifty-eight percent of such parents want their children to have cell phones so they can get in touch with them or learn their whereabouts when needed while 48 percent say cell phones help them coordinate transportation to and from school with their children.

As if that was not a problem for previous generations that didn’t have cell phones. There are plenty of answers that work that don’t require cellphones. Like… I don’t know… Talking to your kids. Or at worst, calling the school office and relaying a message to your kids if something significantly deviates from your normal plans.

And their next line proves the point that half the children with a phone shouldn’t have it.

Nearly as many say children need mobile devices to communicate about their mental health or other needs.

No, you don’t need a phone to communicate about your mental health during school hours. Your phone isn’t the correct device to do that. If you have mental health concerns you need to see medical professionals, and if it’s immediate, the school nurse. Not your phone, not your dumb as rocks social media. Your phone is not a device that can help assuage ANY medical/health condition. The fact that the child thinks they NEED the serotonin/dopamine hit of their precious phone in order to mentally cope with anything and adults are perpetuating it… that’s just fostering dependence on these devices and makes the whole thing worse.

Invidious: News to me. My instance has never been down.
GrayJay: News to me… https://github.com/futo-org/grayjay-android I can see the full source… and the license seems pretty “free” to me… https://github.com/futo-org/grayjay-android/blob/master/LICENSE.md with only caveat being that you can’t distribute it for payment. I’m fine with that… and most others should be fine with that too.
ytdl: depends on the service using it. https://www.tubearchivist.com/ uses ytdl and gives you a little frontend for it. Works fine for watching and you can set it to watch for uploads from channels.

or invidious, grayjay, ytdl, etc…

It’s directly related. If it’s in Apple’s system… or M$'s systems… They get to control your passkeys (not you). Including arbitrarily locking you out for whatever reason they want. Including “oops our datacenter died”. Hell… case and point. I bought new pixel phones (GrapheneOS), Google store didn’t charge my card at all, a card that’s been associated with my account for at least 10 years now, they marked it as “Suspicious” and locked my entire google account. Talking to support… None of them can even see that my account is locked.

This is what “normal” people will get shoved into. This is not a win for any consumer. It’s a win for corporations. They get to see each request you make and use that metadata for themselves.

Most people will store in their ecosystem (Microsoft or Apple). Lose your device, recover via logging back into your service.

You’ll own nothing and be happy!

Nah. It would be easy and probably responsible for google to ban site’s that are malicious like that from poisoning their AI. I think the blame rests squarely on google.

You’re using the same amount of storage whether you buy games physically or digitally.

The difference being that you can load the content back onto the SSD at will, and regardless of server statuses… A lot of people have bandwidth caps or live in places with shit internet speeds.
