- Comment on Plex got hacked. 6 days ago:
That’s also a viable solution, but for me I just use Btrfs snapshots on my NAS. My files are stored on a different device and the Jellyfin container only sees them as a mounted dir, not even aware that it’s an SMB mount.
- Comment on Plex got hacked. 1 week ago:
I think the point here is that Jellyfin doesn’t have a centralized login or website like Plex does. An attacker would have to know about your server and log into it directly to get access. If you run it in a container, there isn’t a lot they can do other than trashing your media library, which you should have protected with filesystem snapshots anyway.

I been doin it for years already!! It’s easy to just set up a 4-bay NAS with docker containers running apps that replace your existing cloud services

The removable batteries coming back would also impact the iPhone, which actually respects user privacy because Apple is not a marketing company. Apple is a products and services company, they sell tech devices and make a lot of money on services like Apple Music and TV+ and such. It’s expensive for a reason; you can even take the encryption keys out of Apple’s hands for iCloud so you genuinely are fully protected

Stallman, is that you??
- Comment on Computer Science, a popular college major, has one of the highest unemployment rates 3 weeks ago:
I appreciate your perspective here. There is an element of whining and negativity among job-seekers lately. I’ve seen some people buckle down and hustle, and I’ve seen others give up in frustration. The truth of this is that there are going to be a lot of people who never even get to use their CS degrees, and there will be people who “win” and get jobs like this without one. It boils down to what you can do and whether or not a company in your area finds value in it.
It’s not fair. It’s just what we have to deal with.
- Comment on Trump wanted a US-made iPhone. Apple gave him a gold statue. 5 weeks ago:
This would be a great idea if literally any other tech company were even slightly above such behavior. This is just what Capitalism is all about, baby. Corruption. Get used to it, because this isn’t changing until Americans revolt (culturally, violently, politically, economically? who knows) and that likely isn’t happening with this complacent and socially isolated of a populace

Because then the rich wouldn’t be able to control everything

This is cope. Honeypots do exist, but people wouldn’t be going to these forums if most of them weren’t genuine. That’s like saying all drug dealers are cops.
- Comment on Pedophiles celebrate US government policy 1 month ago:
Pedocon theory alive and well. People who are against human rights are against human rights, what a fucking shocker. For those of you surprised and disgusted by this, take it from a former victim, this doesn’t even begin to cover it. You’re looking at the very tip of this iceberg. There are entire underground societies in the US and around the world specifically dedicated to this, and the most sickening thing is these freaks use abuse tactics to encourage structural dissociation in their victims, causing them to forget the things that happened for decades.
But nobody cares. Nobody does anything about it, because most of the people with enough power to do anything about it are complicit. Those lucky enough to be oblivious to it turn away from it whenever they see the slightest hint of evidence, because their minds cannot cope with the dark truth of our world. Good people often literally cannot handle the horror of this. It will continue to be a problem for a very long time, and it’s only going to get worse before it gets better. This isn’t a call to action. It’s just a sad statement of facts.

The point isn’t that you’re a leftist; it’s that we’re both leftists and we disagree on effective political strategies, and engaging in debate with you is pointless. I sincerely wish you well.
- Comment on When you work for a company owned by a A..hole 2 months ago:
I don’t think any amount of discussion with you on this subject is going to change either of our minds on the federal government. I’m just gonna assume you’re a leftist and have your own approach to getting shit done that I’m not engaged with and wish you a good day.
- Comment on When you work for a company owned by a A..hole 2 months ago:
You might not be saying that if/when someone who represents your interests gets into power. Remember, we got the ADA, Civil Rights, and more through widespread protest action. Things will continue to happen.

Yeah it’s pretty much unclear
- Comment on Telegram partners with xAI to bring Grok to over a billion users 3 months ago:
Likely because Telegram pointing out that xAI is paying them instead of the other way around is hugely embarrassing.

This is old news already; xAI backed out of the deal this morning.

Either way, this “integration” is just Grok being available on Telegram for Premium subscribers only. It’s just like any other bot on the app.

I’ll take this opportunity to encourage you to limit your Twitter use as much as possible, you know why.
- Comment on Community Notes vanishes from X feeds, raising 'serious questions' amid ongoing EU probe 3 months ago:
Because the notes were not removed, they’re just not working due to data center problems right now. Or, at least, that’s enough of a possibility to raise questions.

- Comment on BlackRock is Suing UnitedHealth for Giving “Too Much Care” to Patients After the CEO was Murdered 3 months ago:
The CEOs aren’t making any risks at all, it’s the shareholders taking risks. The unfairness comes in when the government protects them from their own risk while leaving the poor out to rot.

That’s the problem with our entire system!

Yes, shareholders in the US have rights to sue when their investments don’t return profits as promised.
This is one of the biggest drivers of corporate greed in the US.
