I paid 79€ or something for Plex Lifetime well over a decade ago and it’s by far the best bang for buck I’ve ever got.
It’s also dead simple to share it with friends and acquaintances safely. I know how to manage VPN tunnels and all that shit. I’m not setting that up for my aunt who lives 4 hours away. We did manage to get Plex running on her TV over the phone though.
Systemd has to do EVERYTHING
They drop a systemd-kerneld one day and drop the Linux bit altogether
Being the face of a (multi?)million dollar enterprise AND going live on air once a week without any delay is either really brave or really stupid 😄
Would the average user “do research” better?
Isn’t the problem with Mint that it WAS the correct suggestion - years ago
And now it’s a bit shit and there are way better options
Have you met the average user? 😀
They click on ads that look like windows dialogs.
Linus said that he’d consider it a personal failure on his part if his employees feel they need to unionise to get heard
And the Internet Hate Machine interprets this as LINUS STOMPS UNIONS AND WANTS TO FUCK THEM IN THE ASS. DRY.
It’s literally a Raspberry pi 3B+ and a USB hard drive in a plastic storage box at my parents house 😅
And every point of sale system everywhere
A second offsite NAS (my old one) with the same capacity for the larger files
Backblaze B2 and a Hezner storage box for Really Important stuff.
Telegram has first party bot support, Signal doesn’t.
That’s the #1 reason I still have Telegram installed.
Let me have my own bot, officially, connected to Signal so I can do my nerdy automation shit through it and I’ll move over fully.
Please don’t link me any of the “just use a prepaid phone and…” hacks. I don’t want that, I want first party support.
Sure dude, here’s a shirt with very long sleeves and a soft room with no corners or sharp things
My point was that the frequency of updates doesn’t correlate with quality at all
The huntarr project released a new docker image 3 times a day…
I do run Jellyfin too, it’s pretty handy at getting metadata for stuff locally so I have something outside of Plex’s internal databases.
And IIRC I have used Jellyfin in the past to watch some more esoteric stuff that Plex (and its official clients) couldn’t play.
But there’s no way in hell I’m opening it to the outside world.
