Not Coffee, we prefer cha.

It’s the Apple way.

Yeah, from what I see, professors get their salary i.e. the money for living expenses from their teaching job. But most of the research money comes from grants. Those are usually earmarked so that they can only spend it for very specific purposes.

Edit: This is only true for people who need to run labs. For subjects like math or philosophy, professors depend less on grants since most of their work is done without significant expenses. But they still do need grants for travel and organizing conferences.

Dis u?

Not always.

Hate to victim blame, but what a moron. Microsoft is definitely at fault here, but so is this guy.

He “moved” the data to OneDrive. Why the fuck would anyone do that? He wants to migrate to a new larger drive, but why did he feel the need to delete stuff before verifying that his data has safely been migrated to the new drive? A single drive to store anything important is very dangerous in itself, but this is a different level of stupidity.

I had few TB migration at the start of this year. I vehemently follow the 3-2-1 rule for anything important. (I actually do more copies than that for personal photos and documents.) But I still have the old disks just in case. I can’t fathom doing something like this. Maybe I’m overreacting, but ffs it’s stupid.

It’s not that bad. I run Linux on a Raspberry Pi Zero 2W, which is much weaker than this. (It’s not a competition, though. Just saying.) And that’s also a pretty standard device. I’m kinda interested to see if anyone can go below 64M RAM with a modern installation.

Non violent protests only work when there’s a threat of violence backing them.

To be completely clear, I’m not making excuses. I still hate HR people. All I’m saying is that it’s a feature of capitalism, that turns people into shitheads. Sometimes against their wish.

I have a friend who used to work in HR at some point, before he decided to leave and rejoin college. From what he tells me, it seems like many HR people hate this shit as well. But they’re simply supposed to work like this. There’s this nebulous concept of what they should do, and they do it as a whole, even if most of the individuals don’t like it. The destruction of individual decision making, and any kind of critical thinking and discussion is an aspect of capitalism that isn’t discussed enough.

Wow. Hope you calm down later and realize what an insufferable cunt you’re being right now. (I’m not going to give you a retort anymore, because it’s clear that all of that is falling onto deaf ears. Fucking hell.)

I’m not a member of the Plex community, never have been.

so what can I trust the jellyfin community to do?

Clear double standards. Just use the product if you want to.

yes please explain to me what I have to do.

Alright, man. Do what you want. I’m just pointing out that you have a weird double standard, ffs. Have a great day. (Or maybe not, I don’t wanna tell you what to do.)

maybe focus on more of that and less shitting on Plex

Also, you seem to be happy to tell people what they need to do. (I realize I’m being petty and annoying here, but that’s kinda on purpose for this one. I get pretty fucking frustrated by double standards.)

No. You know you don’t need to join a community for using something, right? I didn’t join a community for my dishwasher. Not even for most of my apps, actually. It’s very easy. When you choose corporate, you’re giving money for shit service. There’s literally no way for dissociate from that. On the other hand, you can simply not participate in a community, no one’s forcing you. It’s just weird that you still prefer the corporate way.

I’ll take a corporate shitheel company over a roach infested toxic community any day.

What an asinine fucking take. Even if Plex were better than Jellyfin in every single way (it isn’t), this take would still be asinine. I mean, wtf dude. You can just not care about the community and everything keeps working. A “shitheel” company will do everything to make your experience suck.

Caddy is the way.

I’ve stopped talking to Zoomers about tech completely. If I try to help, I end up confusing them more, and I don’t like to simply solve shit for them because then they start bugging me for every single thing. (I’m also technically a Zoomer, but barely.)

If it’s for private usage, take a look at PrivTracker.

I think Sonarr uses qBittorrent’s (or other supported torrent client) API for checking the progress, instead of periodic scans. Everything else is solid.

The most powerful app I’ve ever used for this is 1DM+ (there’s a free version as well). It won’t let you download YouTube videos due to Play Store rules, but everything else pretty much works. I’ve never managed to match its versatility or speed for downloading videos from sites with anything else. (I’d love to replicate it on my Linux machine, if I could.)

That’s what I do. But then I mostly use Arch or Arch based distros (e.g. EndeavourOS). So I have access to AUR. If something isn’t on AUR (very rare, but can happen), I just create the package for it and publish to AUR. I do use some AlmaLinux machines as server. I don’t really need many programs outside of the standard repos there since I use them mostly for hosting Docker images. But if I do need to install something like that, I’ve some self-written LURE install scripts.
