• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨28 years later, Lego Island's lost source code has been rediscovered – but the fans who spent nearly two years painstakingly decompiling it by hand "can't have it"⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  No. The code was discovered by a person who used to work on it back in the day. They don’t give it out, unless the decompilers have the permission to get it from the original rights owner. It’s however unclear who owns the rights. They tried to get the permission but all three companies that might own it, didn’t even answer.

  It’s possible to stream from jellyfin without an account. Jellyfin should not be connected to untrusted networks, like the internet. Several API just don’t check the key or don’t require one in the first place.

  Here is some more context. Are they biased? Probably in some shape or form.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A funny thing about Americans and calendar dates⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Could be improved by swapping hours and minutes. They are more important after all.

  Also that way the time isn’t in order anymore.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How to secure Jellyfin hosted over the internet?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Some of these are bonkers. The argument not to fix them because of backwards compatibility is even wilder. Which normal client would need the ability to get data for any other account that it hasn’t the Auth token for.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨FL wants more child labor⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Police stealing money from citizens. Civil forfeiture.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Self-hosted SSO⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t like the interface for setting up flows. Feels needlessly complicated.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨“Awful”: Roku tests autoplaying ads loading before the home screen⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Lineagos can be flashed on some android TV sticks

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Firefox deletes promise to never sell personal data, asks users not to panic⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  There are different kinds of free. Free beer, free speech and free weekend are three different kinds of free that software can have, but not necessarily at the same time.

  Just imagine spending 4k€ on a graphics card only to find it’s partially defect.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Back to Glory⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Bethesda Fucked over the composer for doom eternal including financially and shitting unfairly on his reputation.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I still don’t think companies serve you ads based on spying through your microphone⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  too much work for today’s tech

  All the assistants listen all the time for their codeword. The new pixel phone show you a list of songs played around them and more. It is already happening all the time in the background.

  The Bene Tleilaxu approve this plan.

  Matrix spec change

  Think RFC

  I’ve watched a couple of those, they were really good.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sympathy for their PTSD⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  There was a Sonderkommando of Jews in Auschwitz forced calm down inmates before murdering them and to rob and cremate them afterwards. Exactly to keep the psychic toll lower on the SS and to ensure fewer witnesses.
