It’s not racism to point out that a flight from the east coast of the US to the west coast is the exact same as a flight from Lisbon to Oslo. Physics don’t bend according to flags. I’m just pointing out that this idea is the product of US exceptionalism and the arbitrariness of the human conceptualization of what a country is. France is as large as California. But being in the US doesnt mean California is magically larger. You’re just deciding to compare different political and demographically distinct concepts.

Again, I’m not comparing people, I’m comparing transportation infrastructure. Of course people choose to fly or to drive on Europe according to distances. Just like in the US. It’s you who are xenophobically insisting on portraying the US as special, when it is not.

Yeah, But the US is a federation of States. It’s not that deep to understand. A member of the EU can move freely from country to country just like people can do the same from state to state in the US. The difference is that you can cross France and reach Barcelona from Paris in the same time it takes to drive the distance of Los Angeles to Las Vegas, roughly 6 hours by train. Except Paris and Barcelona (1000 miles) are 3 times further apart than those two US cities (300mi). Infrastructure has a great impact in perception of space and distances. The US is not that big, but it can seem to be when the most common transportation method is the least efficient. Each state is about the same average size as most countries in the world. It’s just that their transportation infrastructure (including highways) suck ass.

Even driving the highways let you do the distance in 10 hours. Twice the time but three times the distance.

Even then, being a small country doesn’t stop the French from knowing that Africa is not a single country.

“Texas is larger than France” means nothing. My country is larger than Texas, and one of my states is larger than Switzerland but also larger than North Carolina. That’s a non argument, that’s just physics. Again, size is not some exceptional property of the US.

This is so wrong in so many ways that if you told me it was a The Onion article with a made up map, I would believe you. Nothing makes sense. The lines don’t go anywhere, all the colors are mismatched. The position, but also the size and the shapes are all wrong. I would bet all the data is also made up and have nothing to do with reality.

Americans frequently overestimate how large their own country is. The US is about as large as all of the European union. But the US fits inside Africa nearly 4 times. Australia is roughly the same size as the US. So is China. Rusia is about 1.5 times the size of the US. The US is not special in any way, quit the exceptionalism.

I always find it funny the reactions of men who seek hair loss treatment with a real medical service and learn that they’re most likely going bald because genetically they have way too much testosterone.

Double funnies when conservatives have to face the fact that the treatment for their bald head is hormone therapy and the irony of taking hormone blockers for gender affirming therapy never crosses their mind…

Yeah, it’s going the be a whole ordeal. I will have to block an afternoon for the migration. Definitely not a “never breaks anymore” scenario. Everything can be broken, there’s no perfectly stable software.

Funny enough I had to rollback, since it doesn’t start in the latest version in my setup. I have to make a conscious effort to keep it one or two subversions behind. It is not the first time an upgrade breaks my install. It will probably be a whole thing when I decide to actually upgrade it again.

Right now, the latest update doesn’t run in my otherwise until now perfectly working environment. It’s frustrating because there’s no easy way to downgrade it in my setup.

9000 IQ move: “If we all stink then no one stinks!”

Meanwhile, organizers pass out on the floor due to the odor.

Because healthcare has been free in Mexico for decades. This seems like the usual political posturing. Saying “healthcare is free” is an empty statement if people are turned away at the point of service because of a lack of medicine or service providers. Give them three months and then check again. Then you’ll know if it was a shallow gesture or not.

If you don’t trust Tailscale there’s like 3 different FOSS self-hosted alternatives. Setting one up is actually not that much more complex than setting a reverse proxy and you control the tunnelling network end to end.

Mayhaps, it was invented in 90s in South america. Notice the first person successfully treated was a child, not a famous person. It’s all patented for the public, so it will be hard to gatekeep. The real problem is that the treatment currently requires a small army of lab technicians and a ton of manual labor. That’s the real obstacle. It’s labor intensive and advancements are on the automation and streamlining of the treatment. Unfortunately it will never be truly cheap. But at least the technology is open and freely available to use for anyone.

Wow, that’s a lot of projection on a single comment. I didn’t disagree with any of the comments. And I’m not attacking anyone. Chill down, we are talking about software ffs.

Always remember that the point of this scene is that the guy saying “I don’t think about you at all” is an insecure prick who is constantly anxious of losing his power and status. He thinks about it all the time, this scene is just bravado to keep up a façade of suave indifference, but inside he is spiraling out of control because the other dude took a project away from him. So, this meme doesn’t say what you think it says.

Pangolin then.

There’s only one, well, now two with yours, comments about that. Any negativity is being brought here by you. Sure, people who use jellyfin advocate for it whenever they can. Just like Linux users can be seen as insufferable by windows only people. Or self-host fans can be felt as insufferable by people happy giving their data to google, Microsoft, meta and apple. But then, you fucking missed your turn, this is self-host, what do you think people were going to talk about here?

I didn’t say fallacy. I said sunk cost. I’m not judging. It’s a legitimate sunk cost if it is indeed rationally better to keep using it rather than stopping.

After 22 hours and 291 comments, I can see that 80% is sunk cost, 15% never bothered to look at their Jellyfin client’s settings, and the rest use a device that doesn’t have a client for Jellyfin yet.

When setup with tunnels, cloudflare doesn’t see any media traffic. Cloudflare only needs to serve the auth and handshakes. The actual traffic is IP to IP, TLS encrypted if you setup a domain correctly. Or just use something like tailscale that sets up the certificates and domains for you.

You have a VPS that relays the pangolin tunnel and a reverse proxy serving the tunnel through a cloudfare + fail2ban protected domain. It should be really cheap since the vps only really runs for the initial auth and connection, and once in a while to update the tunnel IPs. You just give people a domain and a credential for the client.

It sounds complicated but isn’t really. I did it once but then returned to plain tailscale since I don’t really share my server with many people.
