I hate how corporate Plex has become. Instead of making their apps better, now it’s how many “free” services they can try and get you to use.
All I wanted was my hosted media. And to easily share that with family without having to manage user accounts.
I run jellyfin along side it, but Plex still gets the most use.
Same emotions?
On a good day by Above and Beyond.
I first heard it at a rave, rolling on ecstacy, going through pretty bad depression. It was during their “Group Therapy” set. I felt so connected to everyone around me. So peaceful. So understood. I cared and loved everyone around me and I felt the same in return. Sure, I was high. But it was a moment a decade ago that I can still remember vividly, and a point where I started taking my mental health seriously and started to deal with it and finally start to feel good about myself.
Tombstone, AZ has a population of 1,313.
I want a replica of the ocarina from Lunar: A Silver Star Story.
It’s such a beautiful instrument.
Just make it long with an intermission.
Lots of old musical films did that. Like Oklahoma!, Fiddler on the Roof, and Hello Dolly.
Lol. No ai. Just a really bad Photoshop of the mentos label.
Rhapsody’s Holy Thunderforce is just so damn entertaining.
And Helloween’s Eagle Fly Free is pretty high on my list.
Besides all that manual labor requires math. A ton requires geometry.
You think plumbing, framing, electrical or any trade is done without measuring and quite complicated math?
I want your help in my life
That’s not a silly thing though. Pretty much all jobs are temporary.
I’m at an MSP that services quite a few school districts. We lose techs to them somewhat regularly.
Utopias are inherently dystopian in they only work when everyone wants the same things and everyone is bound by strict rules. There is no such thing as a utopia.
This is far from boring. It’s terrifying.
Finding the correct bolt size, thread pitch, material, and trusting that when I order grade 8 bolts, I’m actually getting grade 8 makes Amazon quite a pain in the ass.
If it’s something I don’t care too much about, yea Amazon is fine. But when I want to trust my life to it or it’s going to take some serious stress I’m going to want McMaster.
I’ve been tempted to create a bot that does nothing but search comments in code for misspelled words and create pull requests for them.
If it stays in comments, little chance in breaking a working codebase and I’d have an insane amount of commits and contributions to a wide variety of codebases for my resume.
I’ll never be a top tier coder. But I might make management.
Break up monopolies.
Healthcare.
Enforce fairness and ethical journalism.
Regulate social media. (Influencers, advertisements, disinformation.)
Black and white as VR
Not super scary unless your from the area. But there is a prison by me where back in the 80s, a man named Kevin Cooper escaped. He made his was over to a house a couple miles away and broke inside.
He killed the two parents there, one of their children, and another child that was there for a sleep over with an axe. He tried to kill another 9 year old child there as well, but they survived.
A true life actual axe murderer.
Depending on what people do, the government already has their fingerprints.
Personally, I work around schools so I had to get a background check and fingerprinted for that. I also am licensed to handle explosives, both federally and at the state level. I been fingerprinted for that. I’ve gone through TSA for hazmat endorsement on a commercial driver’s license. That needed fingerprints and a background check.
Getting fingerprinted to get through airport security is the least of my privacy concerns.
But my threat model isn’t the TSA. They aren’t a concern of mine, although I do opt out of their facial recognition.
I am concerned with internet surveillance, corporate surveillance, and communication surveillance.
