This is what the FBI is worried about while dozens of serial killers stalk USA.

Pro tip: Never use public WiFi without wearing a condom.

It’s a slippery slope. What’s next? Water, food, shelter, healthcare, personal freedom, leisure? Give me a break with all these handouts and just give me the exploitable labor. \s

The problem isn’t the imaginary “AI” so much as the actually existing Microsoft.

Fuck proprietary software.

Doesn’t Plex have live TV with reality TV channels?

Similarly you can watch PlutoTV with iptv. They have a bunch of reality TV channels.

Otherwise I guess torrenting if you’re looking for particular shows.

102 -> 894

Come on now. I know that asking for 1.3.1 is pure madness… But can’t we get a beta version of 1.3.0 maybe?

If the nightly version is good, just put out a new release after 5 years. Are they shooting for some milestone or something?

(Really tho I’m glad this project is still active and I’ll check out the nightly version.)

Nobody uses “AI” because it doesn’t exist.

Nobody in this thread is talking about any program that’s remotely “intelligent”.

As far as technologies falsely hyped as “AI”, I use google’s search summaries. It’s usually quicker than clicking the actual sources, but I have that option as needed.

Your family sounds 1337.

OP regularly posts disinfo about “AI”.

Where is the “LLM”? Are you talking about the linked questionnaire? Zero mention of LLM.

SMH these grifters will call any super basic program “AI”.

This guy?

Trump announces a $500 billion AI infrastructure investment in the US

TBH this sinophobic bullshit should be removed. Imagine being so brainwashed by “AI” grifters that you promote technological imperialism.

next generation of frontier models

lol. Too much grifter speak for me. Slow down on that kool aid.

Don’t forget that it’s your moral obligation to give this dude money. jfc.

No offense, but why aren’t you already using a VPN? If your state is especially repressive, that’s even more reason unless it’s already outlawed.

People actually use Tidal?

I switched because Linux is obviously way better in so many ways. No brainer.

I use Windows at work and it’s a joke. It’s security theater. Microsoft and similar capitalist entities are paid not for actual security but for liability protection.

There are many m3u8 playlists online. You just need a player. I think VLC is the most common but people use other players specifically for iptv. For example I use simple iptv in Kodi.

Unfortunately most playlists have lots of dead channels. There are online channel checkers but they’re pretty slow. Once you get a solid lineup of working channels, it’s smooth sailing.

Or better yet. Get an iptv plater (aka VLC), find some channels, and don’t pay for a subscription.

I was speaking in general about proprietary software but…

“”““free””“” for individual use

People really believing this? Please don’t spread this kind of corporate PR.

The “free” version is extremely limited ofc. If one wanted to pirate Tableau, they should pirate the enterprise/full version of Tableau which “includes everything in Tableau.”

I watch iptv with Kodi and it’s pretty solid.

But I went through the same thing with iptv-org. It seems many of the listed channels are largely dead. I manually scrubbed the english list by checking the channels but it was pretty brutal. I think like 200-400 channels were working out of 2000+.

There are also online m3u checkers if you search like “m3u checker”. I’ve used some web-based apps. They’re somewhat slow but ok. There’s also an m3u checker that you can install locally. I haven’t tried it yet but I’m wondering if it might be faster.

I try not to bother with obviously pirated channels because they usually go down pretty quick. I’m much more interested in legit channels that will stay up.

Lastly I also have all the Pluto channels with EPG. I used this app for the channels and EPG.

I also wrote some scripts to download/merge channels and EPGs. TBH it’s kind of a PITA but it’s like a hobby.

(edit: One last thing… I noticed that some channels worked with VLC but not Kodi. I had to adjust some settings in Kodi to make them work. In particular I had to change my user agent to OKHTTP for Pluto channels.)
