“WE ARE ALL DOMESTIC TERRORISTS”

I legit can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic or not, because it perfectly encapsulates the weird way america is so blase about depictions of graphic, gleeful violence while simultaneously being horrified at seeing a nipple.on tv.

To add, there is something about those old 40s and 50s era technical films like you linked that is just so… I don’t what exactly it is, but I find them fascinating and genuinely informative, even though they are explaining tech that is decades obsolete.

It’s pretty awesome that they are still available 70+ years later in excellent quality!

It’s bit reductive to put it in terms of a binary choice between an average human driver and full AI driver. I’d argue it has to hit less pedestrians than a human driver with the full suite of driver assists currently available to be viable.

Self-driving is purely a convenience factor for personal vehicles and purely an economic factor for taxis and other commercial use. If a human driver assisted by all of the sensing and AI tools available is the safest option, that should be the de facto standard.

‘big tech rigged the election’

Isn’t Vance fully in bed with Musk, Thiel, Andreessen, and a cavalcade of similarly minded fash-brained techbros?

That’s the G and the P in GOP. They are literally trying to rig the election with the help of a bunch of billionaire tech bros, but it’s totally okay because “Democrats did it first”

And since the last election was over 1,000 news cycles ago, nobody will question whether that’s actually what happened.

If you are buying used datacenter drives, larger capacity drives are also likely to be newer, which tips the scales a little more in that direction.

I mean, being strictly pedantic, the sperm has to come from somewhere. So I guess it depends on whether you consider an orgasm in a strange room with a small rack of nudie mags to be “sexual gratification”.

Seconding Plex / Plexamp if the use case involves streaming remotely. Probably the easiest to get up and running for remote access.

I’m not sure about the capabilities of hosting on a Pi, but it should be straightforward to run a couple different apps in parallel to test and compare features (I’m currently doing exactly that with Plex and Jellyfin)

For $700 they could at least throw in a 4k Blu-ray player.

Then again, I ponied up extra for the disc version of the original ps5 for that exact reason, only to find out the media player software is a giant piece of garbage that was clearly given no effort. So I can’t say I’m too surprised.

American here. I’m choosing to believe that this is just a normal, everyday amount of poop-related slang for the UK, and that you’re not playing it up for comedic effect.

Came into the comments to read about petting baby cows. Left feeling icky. ☹️

Maybe its just cause I’m high, but baby cows are frickin adorable, and now I’m thinking about finding a rancher friend.

I have to disagree a little bit personally. It can be a chore, but sometimes there is a sense that you’re taking this generic piece of tech sold by the millions and tailoring it to your personal preferences. It’s a little silly and superficial, but it can add a little extra enjoyment to that whole experience of getting a new shiny that you’ve been looking forward to.

All that said, paying $95 for the experience of setting up a used exercise bike is one of the dumbest things I’ve ever heard.

I’ve got both Plex and Jellyfin running at the moment. Plex is nice for sharing with family since it’s more plug&play for sharing outside your LAN, and it is certainly a little more polished in some areas.

But I’ve been very impressed with Jellyfin as well, and would wholeheartedly recommend giving it a whirl. If FOSS appeals to you at all, it’s a solid choice.

In most cases, you really should have no issue running them simultaneously if you’re not ready to commit to a switch.

Short answer is put a tag like “-featurette” in the filename, or add a folder to contain the extras.

Jellyfin supports the same structure as far as I can tell. One thing I’ve found Jellyfin does better is in allowing you to organize extras for TV shows in with each season, while Plex only seems to allow you to dump all the extras into the root folder for the show.

Is that not the normal? I just started sailing again recently, and I legit feel bad having to clear out an old torrent to make room for something new.

The photo of the terraced farming actually brings up an interesting point–in order to render those slopes usable for farming, terracing approximates the “flat” projection of the terrain anyways, so you end up with the same result. Buildings and any other usable structures follow the same rule: you can only build vertically, so the effective surface area is the same as the flat projection.

That’s sikh, where can I buy it??

Aw heck, I’ll take the downvotes…

Because Republican leadership doesn’t actually want to reduce immigration–they just want to keep immigrant labor cheap for the businesses that rely on it.
