“It’s easier to talk here than it is in America,”

Yeah, as long as you don’t say anything about the imprisonments and murders without fair trial, religious intolerance, or make fun of the kings Mu’umu’u.

Pizza and Tacos

Its called “ladder pulling”.

Advertising being allowed to become the dominant monetization method for the internet was a mistake.

I’ve never seen anything that makes most of its money from advertising that doesn’t get worse and worse for it over time as a result. Once you let the advertisers in they will ruin whatever it is they are being allowed to leech off of. Might take 1 year, might take 20, but once they get that foot hold they will run it into the ground because like a billionaire and money, it is never enough.

Justin Long. I can’t stand him for some reason. There are only 2 exceptions:

1. Idiocracy - because that movie is so great otherwise and he is only in it for like 2 minutes.
2. Tusk - Because the whole movie is about someone torturing him.

Gross. It looks like an open air mall food court.

I miss the days of boring US politics

I don’t understand how someone makes the logical leaps they do in these kinds of cases. Even from a purely selfish stand point, the risk of exactly what happened and the fallout are just not worth it to make that appointment right then and there or just have the kids sit in the lobby.

I must be losing my grip on reality, trying to reason why someone that thinks this way does the things they do.

No matter if you end up getting him a pair or not. Be sure he understands that such things as bullying people for having the “wrong” shoes is shallow clique nonsense and he should be better than that.

content being watched) on my device(s) and share that information with Plex’s advertising partners

That is a honey pot rights holders will be falling over themselves to pay Plex for access to once they hear about it.

Been telling anyone that would listen that they need to get out of Plex since they implemented that first iteration of trying to require you to sign into your own self hosted server with a Plex.tv account. They were telegraphing what direction they were going in with that kind of user hostile move.

Lots of responses about how it was easy to get around so no big deal (or worse that they liked it for some coping mechanism reason) and that nothing else was as easy and feature rich as Plex so it was worth it.

Well now a few years down the road from that they are now going to use that beach head on everyone’s Plex server they can to collect what is being watched and sell it to the highest bidder.

Nothing teaches you what the documentation says like plowing ahead without reading it, fucking something up badly, having to crawl back to the documentation hat in hand and actually read it.

I find that Apple supports their software and services on platforms they don’t own cradle to grave while holding their nose, seemingly just so they can say they are available on other platforms. And catch a few bucks from people that don’t have their hardware but really want to watch Ted Lasso and the like legally on their Android/Roku/Fire TV device.

Sure, it technically works, but like you have seen it is clearly a very distant afterthought.

Ugh, yeah, typo. Flameshot.

I really like Flameshot for screenshots.

Increased reliance on touch screen devices with dodgy autocorrect probably accounts for a good chunk of it.

I know it is not uncommon for me to have to go back and edit something I wrote from my phone after I submit it because I didn’t see the autocorrect mistake before hitting send.

The privacy conscious choice is to not use Plex at this point. It is only a matter of time before they start directly screwing with private library’s.

I just like being able to walk by the nightstand and have the phone “lock” to the charging pad when I lay it down.

In my car it is a lot more convenient than a charging cradle for being able to use turn by turn while driving.

I got an account strike the other day and a post removed “by Reddit” according to the message for saying something to the effect of “protests without a threat of violence behind it doesn’t mean much to those in power these days” on a thread about some ongoing protests.

Something about a site rule violation for advocating for and/or calling for violence.

I use Joplin. They have a sync server you can host for yourself.

For me: Jellyfin, Audiobookshelf, Keepass, and Aegis
