Thats fair. I haven’t really noticed any of those issues. For my use case of just organizing and streaming my desktop’s media library to my TV, its fantastic.

The most infuriating thing about Plex for me was when they shifted to force you to start with their BS streaming service at open. I only used Plex for my personal media collection. So having to jump through a bunch of menus to get to the only thing I want to use in their app was the biggest reason to switch for me. Maybe there is a way to fix that, but I could never find one.

Jellyfin just does your personal media library and opens right up into it when the app starts. Its simpler, faster, and FOSS.

Jellyfin is so much better anyway. I used plex for years and it has steadily enshitified.

Just wait till the “AI” bubble bursts.

Just a couple fascist corps squabbling over AI slop. I hope they both lose.

You are talking about tankies. Who are so far left they made a lap back to authoritarianism. In no way do they represent most leftists.

I have a lot of fond nostalgia for Digg, and Kevin Rose, especially from the Tech TV days.

But reading this article doesn’t exactly spark much excitement for me. In the end, it’s just another centralized capitalist venture (now with AI slop from the start) that will end up enshitified in the pursuit of shareholder profits.

We are already using the alternative. Lemmy is the way forward for this format.

I can’t be the only one who feels like this is the absolute lowest priority of dumb shit to resist the regime over. It’s just filler. Another thing he is doing to flood the zone. But one that really doesn’t hurt anything. It’s a distraction. Ignore it and focus on the actual damage he is doing.

Maybe. If you want to trade heartburn for intense diarrhea.

Some people are smarter than others. Some people are so smart that they struggle to be interested in school unless it’s a challenge, and can simply skate by like your roommate.

I certainly can’t say I am anywhere near that level, but I was smart enough to coast through a lot of subjects I was interested in without studying.

I also learned from a young age that I could pass a multiple choice test on a subject I knew nothing about just by intuition, looking for context clues, and guessing. Ask me to write an essay on an unfamiliar subject, and I was screwed, though.

I pay for YT premium and use unlock origin + privacy badger and don’t see any ads on YT.

Back in the 80s my grandmother had a cat. Her neighbors at the time had some very feral and aggressive dogs in their back yard. One day her cat got out of the house, and those dogs escaped their fence and tore her cat to shreds.

The next day she mixed up some antifreeze meatballs and tossed them over the fence.

The neighbors never knew what killed their dogs.

I am groot.

I personally say “o one” “o two” etc. all the way up to “o nine” After that it just seems weird to say “ten” or “eleven” instead of “twenty ten”

Even referring to 1910 as “ten” seems weird and wrong, though. In my mind, it doesn’t make sense to leave the nineteen off until the 40s. For example, saying: “Back in forty-five” sounds right, but “Back in thirty-five” sounds wrong to me for some reason.

The big players will likely continue to develop this tech. “The Bubble” is more about the marketing and speculative investing in anything with “AI” tacked onto it. There’s no reality where everything AI is being ham fisted into is going to be successful. There will be some winners, but there will be a lot of losers when the bubble bursts.

In the meantime, we have to put up with every company and product marketing that they now have “AI” in their product, whether it’s actually useful or different from it was before.

My friends screen record the video and send that because I refuse to click tiktok links. I still don’t watch them.

I looked this up a while back. Felons in NY can vote as long as they aren’t currently incarcerated.

I personally have no issue with swearing. I do it quite a lot. However I’ve got a pretty good filter for when it’s not appropriate, like around kids, or in many professional settings.

From reading your other posts about this it seems you are a nurse and dropped an f bomb while checking on a patient’s wound care.

To me, that seems like a pretty clear situation where it’s inappropriate to swear. It’s unprofessional and bad bedside manner from a medical professional. If I were a patient and heard my nurse drop an f bomb while working on me, I’d be quite alarmed.

I suspect your fellow nurses are not mad at you because they are too sensitive about swearing, but rather they consider your outburst to have been unprofessional, and the fact that you refuse to acknowledge that, apologize, and promise to work on it in the future is what has them upset with you.

Right now, this is what I am telling myself. Let’s just hope he is only as bad as he was the first go around, and not as bad as he has been claiming he will be on the campaign trail. He is the lyingest sack of shit to ever hold office. Let’s cross our fingers he was lying about most of the shit he promised his cult.

Does anyone else have issues loading articles on linuxiac? Every time I open a link to an article there CPU usage spikes like crazy, firefox bogs down, and gives me a wait or kill page dialog.
