Unfortunately this idea that open source is free is a bit toxic in a way. It’s definitely not free to make, it takes years of dev time, and sure, those people often do it without any compensation. And therein lies the problem. People here bitching about jellyfin not doing x or y, but doing nothing to support full time development of it’s creation, then shitting on the devs for not having a perfect product, leads to good devs leaving OSS behind.

Edit: I’ll also say, I get the issues that come with proprietary software in the modern age, especially anything online, but there’s almost this push towards not paying for software. Because some software is free and open source, paying for closed source software makes you a rube or something.

America is in its Zuma era.

South Africa arms deal that landed Zuma in court

Spoiler warning: the country has still not recovered.

They’re having a major outage as I’m reading this, lol.

This year, iRobot launched an entirely new line of robot vacuums … adding lidar navigation to its line for the first time (over VSLAM).

Reminiscent of all the other failed tech companies that refused to implement better/newer tech.

I wouldn’t get one without lidar.

I think of it as racist cleansing.

Yes,i said racist and not racial.

Boere

I saw a few interviews from the last batch that went and they’re finding it really tough, lol.

Apparently they thought the US was going to help them.

Agreed, let them fucking go.

It is a legit strategy.

Or just use thin enamelled copper wire connected to the sensor and tape it down where the door closes, no drilling required.

…

The only issue I see is that getting most sensors to work in the fridge/freezer is difficult for 2 reasons, the cold fucks with the batteries and the metal body of the fridge fucks with the signal.

You can either be good at a few things or mediocre at a lot of things. For convenience I’m sure it’s great, but I wonder about the quality and sustainability of it all.

I’ve never used it but it always seems to me like they’re trying to be an everything app.

Two ideas? In this economy?

I think you missed the part where I said that the zelots completely ignore the legitimate reason why people use it over JF. Same reason I use it.

Also you can literally opt out of the data sharing, the button is right there. And if you don’t live in a corporate shit hole like the US, data protections make sure that they won’t use it without your consent or even store it because it’s protected PII.

Sure thing zelot

Tbh, the way people push Jellyfin every single time Plex is mentioned is so extremely annoying that I’m now even less inclined to use it, especially the way the JF zelots completely ignored the legit reason that most people use it.

Fuck that, who gives anyone the right to force me to be alive? Fuck anyone who believes they get to have a say on if I choose to continue or not. You are just as bad as the pro lifers

Way better than wrasprbrerry

Can’t expect predictive text to be able to do math. You can get it to use a programming language to do it tho. If you ask it in a programmatic way it’ll generate and run it’s own code. Only way I got it to count the amount of r’s in strawrbrerry.
