I’m not trying to say we need to responsible with energy use. But this problem is not a tech problem its a political problem, we have figured out green energy for decades at this point but have failed to transition to it. That problem is not cause green tech doesn’t work, its political.
(I’m using green energy to mean energy production that doesn’t create any pollution, unlike the great renewable corn ethanol)

- Comment on Alternatives to Roku/AppleTV for Jellyfin Client 2 months ago:
Get one of those miniPCs with the Intel N95 or Intel N100 chips. Install kodi. Install the jellyfin plugin and you’re good to go.
You can control it via one of those remotes on amazon with a USB dongle and it powers on the TV and the device.
You’ll have to install the artic theme on jellyfin and mess with the view options a bit for something more polished but once done it just works I’ve been using mine for 3 years and it’s been pretty solid.

Its the subscriptions, it makes my monthly stuff easier to manage. Other grocery stores have merged anyway so it’s kinda watching 2 monsters fight, either way we are fucked lol. Alexa I get that.

PS. I want your statement to be true.
