I mean, calling out Musks hypocrisy is not a bad thing per se, but is it really news?

At the end of the day a lot of people choose to remain on a platform that got bought by an gigantic asshole, who can now do whatever he wants with it. That’s how it works and being upset about it just shows that many users are either naive or delusional. Twitter can’t be saved, there’s nothing left.

Combined with the fact that most Lemmy users probably know about this and already chose alternative platforms a long time ago, articles like these rarely cause more than a shrug, at least for me.

But hey, if it get’s a few more people off of twitter (especially like large institutions as you mentioned), I won’t complain. As time passes I just tend to think that everyone who still stays on Twitter maybe belongs there.

Good.

I think them being 9th graders makes a bit of a difference. A big part of doing shit like this could be puberty-driven edgyness. This ain’t an excuse of course and the scary part is that they went to Auschwitz, saw what happened there right in front of their eyes and still decided to go through with their abysmal photo, no matter if it’s for “fun” or a thought-out political statement.

Makes me wonder what kind of dehumanizing right wing propaganda they consume daily and what their social circle looks like, if they think acting like this is okay.

jfc how detached from reality do you have to be to make far right salutes at Auschwitz? Scary.

Dude no shit I’m voting democrat

Bold of him to assume that he will be voting again.

In all of this mess, seeing people like your good friend suffer from the consequences of their own actions, maybe even for the first time, makes me very happy. I’m sorry for the rest of you, but the leopards can eat every single Trump voter for all I care.

Uhh, interesting! Thanks for sharing.

No, it isn’t.

EDIT: I quickly want to add that Jellyfin is still great software. Just please don’t expose it to the public web, use a VPN (Wireguard, Tailscale, Nebula, …) instead.

I don’t know anything about Android AOSP, so I found this clarification important:

This does not mean that Google is making Android a closed-source platform, but rather that the open-source aspect will only be released when a new branch is released to AOSP with those changes, including when new full versions or maintenance releases are finished.

It’s been a while since that I set this up, so take this with a grain of salt. I have these two plugins installed:

• Chapter Segments Provider
• The older Intro Skipper

I’m honestly not sure if I even need both - maybe the Chapter Segments Provider is unnecessary, even though it’s official and newer. I don’t understand exactly how it works from the docs.

However, Intro Skipper gives you a new scheduled task named “Detect and Analyze Media Segments”. Use this to extract metadata about media segments from your library.

Now that the server knows about some media segments you need a client that can handle them. I’ve had success with the Android TV App (check the settings) and the Web interface should support them too.

I didn’t need to configure anything aside from that, as far as I can remember.

The media segments feature has been released as of 10.10.0 and it still needs a plugin. Still feels a bit clunky but works already on my Android TV box. I guess there will be more polish in future versions, now that the groundwork is done.

Sadly our car industry slept way too long on electric vehicles and instead doubled down on combustion engines, even by fraudulent practices (e.g. Dieselgate).

Teslas were by far the best EVs for a long time. Nowadays, not so much.

Friedrich Merz is also the guy who called the greens and the left “nutjobs” whose “time is over” just a day before the election.

We will have more salespeople next year because we really need to explain to people exactly the value that we can achieve with AI. So, we will probably add another 1,000 to 2,000 salespeople in the short term.

Well, good luck!

I can’t wait for the AI bubble to burst. It’s going to be hilarious to see these kinds of CEOs falling flat on their faces. Unfortunately, it will not be the CEOs who will suffer the most from the consequences.

You can’t make this shit up.

if the database “can’t handle it” […] that proves that they make poor choices.

Exactly, the database should never even have to handle the password in it’s original form and hashing algorithms don’t care about special characters.

You’re right.

We’ve decided that IPFS is not yet ready for prime time. We’ll still link to files on IPFS from Anna’s Archive when possible, but we won’t host it ourselves anymore, nor do we recommend others to mirror using IPFS. Please see our Torrents page if you want to help preserve our collection.

I’d say ask the original developer directly. Getting your changes merged upstream should be the preferred option for you, the original dev and the users. If everything goes right, you both could figure out a way to do this, maybe by re-introducing your refactorings and fixes one by one in smaller pull requests. Maybe you could become a maintainer in the process and support the original dev long term so everybody wins.

If the original developer doesn’t respond or declines you could think about bringing your own fork forward. Think about the consequences though, the original dev might get frustrated by a competing fork and abandon the project completely. The users on the other hand might be confused or insecure about which version to choose. Your fork must offer a lot for them to jump ship and switch.

Generally I’d say open source is about working together, not against one another, so just shoot them a message and see where it goes.

I’d recommend Quad9 or Mullvad as both have a good record on privacy. DNS is also often unencrypted by default, so make sure to use DoT or DoH while you’re at it.
