I had this same error a few months ago when a drive was failing to mount because (unbeknownst to me) it was overheating. I turned the system off for a few hours before troubleshooting (I had errands to run). When I came back, the system booted without issue.
If you’re looking for an easy troubleshooting step, have you tried turning off the system for several minutes (and unplugging it) and then powering it back on?
Professional boxing is corrupt in many, many ways. I never said otherwise.
That said, boxing being corrupt isn’t the reason that Tyson lost to Paul. Tyson lost to Paul because Tyson was 58 years old. Again, not rocket science. This was an exhibition. The corruption you speak of is more prevalent in the actual professional circuit, not fights between youtubers and influencers.
And perhaps take your own advice about not “contaminating other people’s thoughts” with your unsubstantiated nonsense. Tyson took the fight because the purse was enormous even if he lost, just like everyone who agrees to fight Paul. No one who actually watches boxing was surprised when Paul won.
And yet you refuted no part of my argument and did nothing to lend credence to your own 🤔
The ignorant party here is you. But by all means continue laboring under the delusion that you understand boxing because you watched the highlights of one YouTuber fighting a geriatric in an exhibition.
Tyson barely threw a punch because he’s ancient and knew Paul could counterpunch much faster than Tyson could react. Tyson knew he was fighting an uphill battle and chose to be very conservative with his approach. Which was a smart idea. He didn’t want to get knocked out like Tyron Woodley did.
Do you actually follow combat sports at all, or do you only show up when a YouTuber is on the fight card? If the latter, I could understand why you might think the way you do. If you actually follow combat sports or have any understanding of how they work, it’s obvious that the fight didn’t need to be fixed. There’s a reason 58-year-old boxers don’t fight 27-year-old boxers. It’s boring and one-sided.
Again, “I do not like Jake Paul” is not actual evidence that the fight was fixed. Please feel free to provide any actual evidence you might have supporting your position, though.
You might’ve seen one too many movies if you think Tyson was going to win that fight. Vegas odds were Paul +249 to Tyson -190.
“I do not like Jake Paul and therefore Jake Paul could not have won the fight legitimately” isn’t evidence that the fight was fixed. Paul was fighting a man 31 years his senior and several inches shorter. It’s not rocket science. Everyone (including me) wanted Tyson to knock Paul out, but this isn’t Hollywood.
In what way? You mean the way Paul didn’t completely massacre him in round 1 even though he could’ve? That’s how exhibitions work. Paul was showing restraint because they wanted to put on a show. Tyson had zero chance of winning that fight so Paul carried him for a few rounds. That isn’t a “fixed” fight. “Fixed” means the outcome was agreed upon before the fight, but that isn’t what happened.
trying to prove that he setup, paid and that the fights were mostly scripted
There’s nothing scripted about the fights. He just only fights people he knows he can handily beat because of his size and youth. I don’t like Paul, but the whole “the fights are fixed” narrative is silly (and entirely devoid of evidence). He’s a hack who only fights people who are ancient, retired, or not even fighters to begin with like basketball player Nate Robinson. He doesn’t have to fix these fights; they’re just that overwhelmingly booked in his favor.
Also, this entire topic gives him exactly what he wants: attention for his rage-baiting clout-chasing career.
Nobody talks like that. Nobody
How do you think LLMs learned to talk like that? Plenty of people talk (or rather, write) exactly like that. It’s just now heavily associated with AI because AI has been specifically tuned to output sentences structured that way.
Yes, AI has a vibe to it that can be very predictable and easy to spot, but that doesn’t mean every single instance of someone knowing how to string a few paragraphs together with certain verbiage is a bot.
Idk maybe I’m being paranoid
Seems that way. Healthy skepticism is good and necessary. Paranoia not so much.
This attitude is essentially discouraging certain syntactic styles in writing. I and many others now regularly have moments when writing posts where we go, “Hm, I maybe shouldn’t word it this way or people might say I’m a bot,” and it’s obnoxious that it’s come to that.
About 10 years ago, I read “Creativity, Inc” by Edwin Catmull, co-founder of Pixar. It detailed the ideas and events that lead up to the advent of feature 3D animation and filmmaking. I found it to be an inspiring story that mixed a passion for computer science with the desire for compelling storytelling. I was independently studying animation at the time, and it definitely lit a fire in me, as it was written by and for computer nerds who would like to make art.
I’ve always been more technically-oriented than artistic, so it was nice to see a book written from a similar perspective. I spent most of my young adulthood working on my technical skills so I could get a decent job, but around the time I read this book, I actually started putting time into creative endeavours in my free time as well.
If you want a view to count you need to use an official client
I would think that parsing the website would count the same as any browser-based page load, since parsing the website requires first fetching the page (probably using something like wget or curl under the hood). I dunno if non-logged-in page loads are generally counted toward the overall view count on a given video, though.
I guess I’d probably pick “money” because I am generally risk-averse. I might already have incredible luck, but I don’t gamble, so how would I know? I’ve been incredibly lucky in non-gambling endeavours (my health, my family, my career, etc), but if asked to pick between being stochastically lucky and being guaranteed a certain level of comfort (and thus being able to provide for my family) for the rest of my life, I’m gonna pick the latter.
I took a cursory glance through the source code (for the Firefox version, at least), and I’m not seeing any calls to the gitflic.ru URL outside of the update functions (there appear to be two different places where these might be triggered) and one function for importing custom sites:
// Import custom sites from local/online
function import_url_options(e, online) {
let url = '/custom/sites_custom.json';
if (online)
url = 'https://gitflic.ru/project/magnolia1234/bpc_updates/blob/raw?file=sites_custom.json' + '&rel=' + randomInt(100000);
try {
fetch(url)
.then(response => {
if (response.ok) {
response.text().then(result => {
import_json(result);
})
}
});
} catch (err) {
console.log(err);
}
}
I noticed in the manifest.json, there is the optional permissions array:
"optional_permissions": [ "*://*/*" ],
Which seems to grant the extension access to all URLs, so maybe that’s why the HTTP request is able to fire on any given website rather than just the ones explicitly defined in the regular permissions array. Though this is speculation on my part; I’ve only ever written one or two complex Firefox extensions. I’m not sure if the “optional permissions” array can be declined upon installation (or configured in the extension settings after installation); perhaps access to the wildcard URL can be revoked so that this update call isn’t occurring constantly.
All looks okay to me, but this was a very quick audit.
Hm, I’m not seeing any of those games as part of this package. Am I missing something?
I’ve had great results with various refurbished Dell Latitudes from eBay over the years. I have a stack of about 5 or 6 of 'em and they’ve all run many mainstream Linux distros with fantastic out-of-the-box support. I pass 'em out to members of the household whenever a laptop is needed and they’ll usually get the job done.
I’d just type in “Dell Latitude” on eBay and filter by price and such. I suspect any model with an i5 and 8GB RAM oughta be fine for light programming work. I’ve found sellers with high ratings (like 97% or higher) and thousands of sales are pretty reliable (and tend to have return policies in case you get a lemon). Just test all the hardware (webcam, microphone, headphone jack, USB ports, ethernet, etc) as soon as you get it.
I’ve saved a lot of money over the years buying secondhand, and these machines have been running without a hiccup for years of casual use.
I haven’t had to deal with this specific kind of use case before (accessing the local Jellyfin service while the laptop is connected to a VPN), but after some cursory research, one of these approaches may work for you:
Easy Option (only available on some VPN software):
There may be an option in your VPN client that lets you access local network addresses like your Jellyfin server. Check your settings and see if there are any options like “allow local network traffic” and then try opening up your Jellyfin server in a browser (e.g.: http://192.168.1.100:8096/)
Less Easy Option:
If your VPN client doesn’t have an option for allowing local traffic, you can open up the command prompt on your macbook and run a command like this:
sudo route add -net 192.168.1.0/24 192.168.1.1
Where 192.168.1.0/24 is the local network you want to connect to (where the Jellyfin server is located), and 192.168.1.1 is your local gateway (probably your wifi router’s address). Change both of these depending on how your network’s local IPs are formatted.
This should update your routing table to handle local network addresses without the VPN and this should persist between reboots.
Hope this helps.
All these years later, I still can’t believe they got Tyson Hesse, the guy who did this ridiculous Sonic fan comic, to oversee the redesign of the Sonic model for the film. What a crazy world we live in.
I was being sarcastic, lol. It’s a play on the “you have to have a very high IQ to understand Rick and Morty” gag.
Episodes of Rick and Morty really hit close to home in a way that normies couldn’t possibly fathom. It’s a blessing and a curse.
You could use PiVPN (you don’t need to install it specifically on a Raspberry Pi – this is just a handy all-in-one software solution). It supports both OpenVPN and Wireguard standards. Forward the relevant port in your router configuration, set up a single user for yourself in the VPN settings, and then connect via whichever client you prefer (OpenVPN if you use OVPN, or Wireguard if you use Wireguard).
I’ve used it before to access locally-hosted services from outside my home network and it gets the job done with fairly minimal setup.
