Where are you? It’s gonna defer depending on your country. In most of the world it’s available on Netflix.
- Comment on All Windows users should immediately update their computers. An exploit rated 9.8/10 (CVE-2024-38063) compromises all devices running Windows with an IPv6 address. 2 months ago:
Harvesting IP addresses shouldn’t be a problem, since the firewall shouldn’t allow packets from a peer you haven’t talked to first. But true, if you can be attacked in response by a server you’re connecting to that would be bad.
- Comment on All Windows users should immediately update their computers. An exploit rated 9.8/10 (CVE-2024-38063) compromises all devices running Windows with an IPv6 address. 2 months ago:
This would presumably mainly be an issue for computers open to the internet. So not so much for home PCs, unless the router’s firewall is opened up.

This TV Streamer costs significantly more than a CCwGTV combined with an adapter.
- Comment on Google is discontinuing the Chromecast line 3 months ago:
Until services stop supporting it.
- Comment on Google is discontinuing the Chromecast line 3 months ago:
None of which changes the fact that it’s more expensive and clunkier, and none of which feels necessary.
- Comment on Google is discontinuing the Chromecast line 3 months ago:
You can get an Ethernet adapter for the Chromecast
- Comment on Google is discontinuing the Chromecast line 3 months ago:
A more expensive, clunkier product, with a bunch nog needless fluff in it.
- Comment on New Samsung phones block sideloading by default 3 months ago:
So you need to change two settings instead of one to side load. Seems rather pointless.
- Comment on Self-hosted Jellyfin CPU or GPU for 4K HDR transcoding? 6 months ago:
A310 is the cheapest.
I wonder how well it does for transcoding on older computers without ReBAR, since apparently gaming on it is straight out broken without ReBAR.
- Comment on The retro Nokia phone everyone owned 25 years ago will get a reboot soon – and yes, it has Snake 6 months ago:
The problem is the previous one only has 2G, and the 2G networks will soon be shut down, hence why they’re making a 4G version.

Didn’t they already have that?
- Comment on Backblaze B2 vs other storage providers to store legally ripped media 7 months ago:
Another alternative then would be Restic. That’s what I’m using for backups
- Comment on Clean energy could be 'closer than ever' after a nuclear fusion machine smashed a record 8 months ago:
So another site that makes it look like the article ends in order to inject some completely unrelated video in the middle

No, they have to convince everyone they talk to to enable the setting to be able to use this

They’re not canon though

This meme didn’t let me down

What other service will let me watch YouTube videos?
- Comment on This is why we hate you 1 year ago:
And of course later on the alpha quadrant gets most of the mentions since that’s where the wormhole to the gamma quadrant is located. Though presumably Voyager would have spent half of their voyage home in the beta quadrant, had they not found a shortcut.

What’s the pro of KOReader compared to the stock reader?

- Comment on Hydrogen locomotive 1 year ago:
For what? Trolleys?
For most trains in Europe. For example I can mention the Iron Ore Line in north Sweden which has 8600 trains. Which isn’t as heavy as some of the coal or ore trains around the world, but it’s at up to a 1% incline.
- Comment on Hydrogen locomotive 1 year ago:
you’re going to have a lot of difficulty and it’s going to be pretty expensive running high voltage lines across these railroads.
It’s worked just fine for the past century
