So a dictatorship, then?

How about a democracy where you're only allowed to vote after taking extensive courses on how to vote, see what's important for you and others, and where you learn to see populism of any sort for what it is?

While at it, add a requirement that anyone wanting to get votes must first undergo psychopathy testing, that'd be nice

Obviously also remove the first past the post, winner takes all type democracies

This shows that a shit tonne of American parents didn't read their kids bed time stories

Man you are imagining trump capable of a lot of exercise. The guy could never do any of that he'd die of a heart attack trying to walk up to somebody

Where is that mega thread?

It's not Nazis, it's different. It's probably just as bad but it's a weirdo mix.

Trump is a mobster wannabe. He is also dumb as fuck and a useful idiot who is controlled on the one hand by foreign powers, but also by right wing extremist Christians, some of whom actually see him as a Messiah figure. I fully assume he is going to install himself as a dictator fast, as that's what the past 4 years of preparation were about. He'll also die, probably. He's old, fat, doesn't exercise, eats unhealthy, in a super stressful job and loads of people want him dead.

I can't remember the time (in my time anyway ) that so many people wanted a US president dead.

Anyway, he'll die soon and the the christo fascists will start the infighting who can become the next US dictator.

I fully expect chaos in this year with chaos being the sweet synonym for that mass deportation starting, people will resist, people will get shot and die, people will start terrorist attacks. Whenever you work for years to pit one group of citizens against another, it's not going to end well.

Man this is fun....

At this point, she's right. she is mainstream America as mainstream America voted trump in too

A scammer gets reeled into a phone call between a president and a mobster wannabe.

Great timeline

Fully agree with this but the problem is that restaurant owners pay their staff shit

Give proper wages to servers and the tipping can be history

I don't care

Trump got the majority vote, he didn't even have to lie, steal and cheat, people actually gave him the presidency.

Whatever happens now, you reap what you have sowed. It's not my problem and I'm so so so enormously done with the corrupt US culture. America can go fuck itself, I just no longer care, I have no more fucks to give you got trump, enjoy him

The point is that Cloudflare is a provider that you can choose to have as a part of your own infrastructure.

It is NOT a man in the middle as man in the middle implies "attack"

If Cloudflare is a man in the middle, i can make similar evil claims about anyone using Google Drive or Microsoft crapware. Loads of governments store sensitive documents on Microsoft services and Microsoft actually actively breaks contracts by messing with said data.

At least, as far as we know, Cloudflare has no I'll will.

This is super annoying, as I try to pinch gesture zoom in on an image, and I'll go out of the media back to the list again instead.

I'd like to click to already zoom in somewhat, making punch zoom even easier

If I want to get out, I'll press the back button on my phone, or the back button of connect

So I'm back with Netflix and Amazon. I'm kind of done with jellyfin at this point. I've been recommending it to everyone and honestly I'm not sure that I still would.

Jellyfin as a product simply doesn't work. There, I said it.

For a media system I'd hope for the basics to be able to play a movie or show with subtitles, selecting audio channels, and scrubbing and it to remember where I was left. I wouldn't even need posters and all that, I'd get my own subtitles, etc.

I have multiple TVs, but let's go with the old one with a chrome cast. I use my Android phone to cast a show episode. Scrubbing sometimes works. it works better than before because before it would just break everything to the point of the app requiring a reinstall. At least that's fixed now but scrubbing still is SLOW, 10 seconds ahead takes 20-30 seconds to do. Worse though, it borks up subtitles by leaving the subtitles that were there when you started scrubbing, and places the new ones on top of that. The only way out is to exit casting completely, kill the app, restart all from scratch. Obviously JF doesn't continue where I stopped (seriously, requests on that timeframe were made, it can't be that hard to register that, can it?) and so I need to scrub again which, you know, borks up subtitles. So I'll start just from the beginning, I can rewatch the same 5 minutes twice but it annoys the hell out of my wife.

Then, subtitles is a mess. The above, but also switching subtitles will cause similar issues. Don't touch anything when having subtitles!

Then: it's slow. It's godunholy slow. I have a 16 core and Rhyzen 5 cpu, 64gb men @3200mhz, 1tb M2 Samsung Evo 989 pro, and ~60tb over 3 exos drives. An AMD rx7800 XT finishes up the config. It's not the best of the best, but my system, u believe, ranks in the higher ranks of jellyfin installations

Jellyfin cannot play a movie or show without stuttering at least a few times, flat out freezing for minutes during shows, especially in the second episode for that day... If I run transmission in parallel, it just freezes up so much that it's undoable.

Logs don't indicate any major issue, I saw a freeze and had all logs on tail and literally saw no messages whatsoever during that freeze. System utilization was near zero.

Wife isnt tolerating jellyfin anymore and now I have Netflix and Amazon accounts again.

I understand it's open source software, you do what you can, but right now it simply isn't a system that is for the general public. It can be used by nerds like me who have the patience to deal with all the issues.

Edit: Really? 17 downvotes? I'm trying to tell you that the thing doesn't work and that I've spent plenty of time trying to fix it, reading docs, posting questions, nothing has fixed anything so far but can't have people talk about that, or what's wrong?

 
 

Happy to see that fuckcars is one of the first Reddit communities to appear on Lemmy for me!
