He doesn’t think.

Life comes at you fast

I just moved 20k bookmarks from Pocket to Readeck, and can sympathize lol. A lot of the links are dead. I found a cleanup script I’m going to run but it’s still a huge curation challenge

Oh I think I turned off the CDN, but I’ll check, thanks for the tip

I thought that was only for tunnels

Yeah with VPN it’s more straightforward. I wanted it accessible without which was more involved. Honestly the average user doesn’t even know what tailscale or wireguard are, so you are already advanced using those

Nginx/caddy, dynamic DNS, buying a domain, setting it up with cloudflare is well outside the capabilities of most people. Took me a few hours to figure out

I think people feel loyalty to Plex and I understand why. I even understand why they’re charging for self-hosting considering their costs of delivering the dynamic DNS, software development, content info, etc. But being closed source, VC funded, and with their core product an increasingly small part of their business, it’s all a powerful recipe for enshittification. Tech Altar has talked before about how enthusiast brands often betray their users. Jellyfin was not a trivial set up for remote access, but I’ve really been happy with it, and I like having the peace of mind of having control over how it works

It can Chromecast these days

I suspect the competent people knew all along. I wonder if the name was changed because of internal politics in the company against HBO. They changed the name when they were gutting a lot of HBO’s leadership

It’s not about the destination, it’s about all the managers who got bonuses along the way!

Yes it’s awful

We should laugh at David Zaslav every chance we can

They also removed 4k from the standard package while continuing to boost prices multiple times, and also filling it with sports I have no interest in. Combined with the fact the app continued to run awfully on Android TV, it made it a really easy decision to cancel

He’s just sharing his various worm parasites with them ❤️

Definitely looks suspicious

Money well spent.

That’s not what the chemtrails theory is. Geoengineering is a worthwhile thing to prevent in a precautionary way. But some whacko Florida Man highjacked this bill to ban using contrails as some sort of chemical/biological mass sterilization agent.

Cloud seeding is only a couple steps above dowsing in its efficacy. It rarely works to do anything. There is a basic principle that is true regarding cloud condensation nuclei, but the methods are so haphazard that it’s still mostly just “doing something” to make people feel better. It’s basically our equivalent of the Mayan elite rituals encouraging rains for the corn harvest.

I have offered logins to a couple family and they just say hmm, never heard of it, sounds illegal and don’t use it lol
