  1. Convenience. Always comes back to convenience.

    Jellyfin + Arr stack would take a couple of hours to setup and cost $10/month for a seedbox in Europe, but it's not as convenient as downloading an app and logging in.

  2. Mini PC with Linux + Jellyfin + web browser.
  3. *If you have one that hasn't updated itself since last year.
  4. Interesting idea. What do you use this for?
  5. > Cross-Platform, GPU Accelerated Whisper

    > WebGPU is only officially supported on Chromium based browsers running on Windows & MacOS. For more information, check out Supported Platforms

  6. This and many other issues. - Trusting strangers with your children and hoping that they will teach your kids the same values that you have and aren't teaching them the opposite for 8 hours a day. - Your children are exposed to other children that you have no control over during their most formative years, eg: kids from abusive households, drug addict parents, etc, of which the bullying is just the visible aspect.

    Lots of bad parents out there that homeschool their kids, but I know some parents that put a lot of effort into making sure their kids are socializing and participating in social programs and have a community when homeschooling.

  7. Same thing happened to farmers during the industrial revolution, same thing happened to horse drawn carriage drivers, same thing happened to accountants when Excel came along, mathmaticins, and on and on the list goes. Just part of human peogress.
  8. Kids can also choose to disobey parents and play on train tracks or jump off cliffs or a million other dangerous things. Either you leave it to the parents or you end up spying on every single action they take.
  9. On android there's also Louis Rosman's company's Grayjay. Ad blocking, syncing between devices without Google, SponsorBlock to skip sponsored segments, and many more: https://grayjay.app/
  10. There's enough of a population out there that just either don't care about the price hikes, the fact that your bike gets disabled if it doesn't have internet, or straight up bricks itself if you try to use it with a third party service, that they seem to be able to still be in business.
  11. Nothing quite like being a minority in your own country and it's history in the next 25 years.
  12. > it's just a script. ... That has brought in thousands of new users to Linux in the past couple of months.

    How have your scripts done in comparison?

  13. What is the controversy around dhh? That he's conservative leaning?
  14. They're both censoring what individuals and organizations are allowed to say online and what their citizens are allowed to read/hear..? Just because they took a different approach and pressured companies without telling the public doesn't change that fact.

    So you think the government forced TikTok to sell it's US operations to Oracle, the company with CIA ties, that has been caught spying on it's customers data before, and who's CEO proudly said "Citizens will be on their best behavior,” and “because we are constantly recording and reporting everything that’s going on.” is about" data privacy"?

  15. You can have a the pain points with Linux or you can have the pain points of Windows and have tiktok and facebook added to your start memu, AI force added to your taskbar, your searches in the start menu sent off to microsoft, AI forced into your browser and notepad, have file explorer take multiple seconds to start up, Edge block downloads of .exe files with DANGEROUS FILE warnings, and I can go on and on.
  16. It's not any different. You can buy a whole prebuilt PC like you can a car or a fridge and most people do. You can also go out a buy car parts and fridge parts to replace things that break in either of those.

    I can go out and buy a new steroe, new muffler, new seats, etc. for my car and replace them, just like parts in a desktop.

  17. Considering the Biden administration pressured Facebook and Twitter to shadownban people/organizations they didn't like, TikTok being forced to sell to a US company, which has a literal shitton of goverment contracts and CIA ties.. the US is not that far away from Russia. Russia is just more open about it.
  18. I have the exact same issue with my XPS 9500. But for me it turned into a daily issue and there's a bunch of forum posts of people having this issue. I think it's a manufacturing defect and Dell just never admitted to it and just gave board replacements to people that had warranty (with plenty of posts of people complaining that the same issue came back after the replacement as well)
