Plex. Its been getting shittier for years.

Meanwhile JF has been improving in leaps and bounds.

Every phone I use a case. And every case I use, any camera is at least slightly recessed to protect the lens.

I’ve never given the slightest crap about bumps because its going in a case, and the only people I know who don’t use a case are the same people walking around with broken screens and lenses.

So I’ve never understood any review about how a phone looks without a case. That said, I also like 3.5mm jacks, SD cards for expansion, and replaceable batteries. I don’t care about shaving 1mm off the thickness, 1/8th of an ounce of weight, or any of that nonsense.

I hate what Steve Jobs has done to technology (and the world, considering what a piece of total garbage he was as a person and how many people idolize that d-bag).

Anyway. /rant.

That’s one core

For Fedora, it’s three commands:

sudo dnf copr enable patrickl/yabridge

sudo dnf install yabridge --refresh

After a wine update, run:

yabridgectl sync

And AV Linux is one dev yeah, but it doesn’t much matter. It’s just a tweaked build, it’s based on MX so you’re still getting all the updates needed, just with some config changes more or less.

Fwiw I use straight Debian, but I’ve also been using Debian for so long that it’s graduated college, met a partner, got married and is considering kids.

Ubuntu I avoid these days because I think Canonical is running it into the toilet, with so many bad decisions (snaps, pro subscription, etc) that I just won’t touch it.

That said, AV Linux is essentially deb based anyway (MX is based on Debian), so it’s a nice setup if you don’t want to have to think about your kernel.

Fedora I also like, I’m just less of a yum/dnd guy than an apt guy (which I have literally typed into RHEL machines before remembering I was being an idiot).

Take a look at AV Linux and Fedora Jam.

Highly recommend Reaper fwiw.

Well now you have something to post to unpopular opinions too!

I’d lean towards the pi being the problem, but you can test the network throughput with iperf, and would want to test the videos outside of Kodi on the pi, so you could also check top and see what the processing looks like.

If I remember my pi 4 hardware decoding specs correctly, I believe h.264, MPEG 2, and VC1, and some support for HEVC. If I had to guess, you may have some codecs that aren’t handled by hardware acceleration, and instead just CPU.

My best rec would be to use either a dedicated stream box (like a fire stick, Nvidia shield, etc) which has better codec support, or pick up like a little Intel n100 based system, which will handle a drastically wider set of codecs with full acceleration support.

Right now I’ve got a Roku and a Google TV Chromecast, and I’ve been trying with various environments on an old Lenovo m910q so I can find my favorite fit of UI/distro. The Roku and Chromecast never stutter, and I don’t do transcoding for inside the home. Works with 4K HDR HEVC no problem.

Edit: Autocorrect annoyances.

Tiny/mini/micro makes up my server environment (and two customs using old cases and replaced parts).

Storage is a 1520+ and the two customs, with the 1515+ for backups I don’t want to lose (syncs to two other locations).

Tiny/mini/micro is the majority of compute tasks, mostly proxmox, LXC’s, and a few VMs.

The little machines have plenty of processing power, usually nvme but I can add it on if needed. Combine it with network storage, and you don’t need anything else imo.

Bonus is they are small and cheap as off lease machines being auctioned off.

It’s not readable in general, but the first screenshot is about the mods being complicit, the second is the post in question. The post claims a way to “unlock coursehero, chegg + more” and points to a discord. There isn’t really more than that.

u/dysgraphical then said:

The mod u/ Furdiburd10 who manually approved and stickied the post has been removed from the mod team. Reddit’s spam filter actually caught it early on and the community helped mass report. They also fully censored comments from yall calling it out.

Sorry we let this slip. This shit happened seven years ago too for folks that were around that time: https://torrentfreak.com/reddits-piracy-sub-reddit-reopens-after-mutiny-shutdown-170523/

Edit: If you were banned by this loser or muted, please DM me and I’ll comb through the logs and work on reinstating you back.

I tried to see about grabbing the post by pirat_nation for the screenshots, but the tweet doesn’t show and I don’t have/won’t use a twitter account.

Forgot about that, and I think someone who asked for an autograph?

The paparazzi one, unfortunately, I can understand.

Abusive, yes, but as far as I’m aware not violent. Still fits (calling 911 as per the post), but not for physical abuse.

He has been known to publicly harass and threaten (it’s why he was barred from the Grammy awards), he’s been sued by employees for harassment, intimidation, retaliation,and discrimination, and even failure to pay his employees, and he’s also being sued by his former personal* assistant for sexual harassment, including him masturbating in front of her.

Kanye is 100% an abusive PoS. Just not, as of now, physically abusive afaik.

Edit: Stupid autocorrect typo personally/personal

Edit 2: Some violence

Second article starts with an amazing line:

If they actually consulted a lawyer, I’d be fine with the decision.

They did not. They make rash, uninformed decisions, based on feelings not reality, as a knee jerk reaction to other unrelated events.

So it’s not very understandable. They could have consulted a lawyer for less than a month of their hosting costs.

Plenty familiar with qubes, just not familiar with any current consoles.

That’s gaming services, so I guess it’s windows only then, you’re right. Like I said, no idea regarding anything about current consoles for me. Haven’t played on a console since the 360.

I’ll be totally candid, I have no idea what version of Xbox is current these days.

But didn’t they have a CVE a few months ago they previously claimed wasn’t an issue?

Edit: Found it. https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2024-28916

… Just watch it again.

(For that “just tape them up” energy)

There is nothing Microsoft I would consider “top tier” when it comes to security.

Defender does a great job for many AV tasks. Crowdstrike does more, and protection isn’t tied to windows updates.

This isn’t a situation where companies just chose not to use the free item, the free item has other costs (management overhead) and is missing some features.

The best answer, of course, is to not use windows for anything that needs to be secure.

Edit: For those who think I’m wrong, cool. I’m not but you are welcome to disagree.

There is a difference between the free defender and paid for defender. If you’re a home user, check out defenderui.com to get (many, not all) features that are normally limited to intune/gpo.

A full and proper deployed defender stack is very good, but in terms of management… The approach to different os’s is practically cobbled together, the webui is horrific, and it lacks some basic functionality. A problem to manage a system like this is a problem to deploy a system like this.

If you’re on the free Defender level, you are not getting anywhere near the same features as falcon, there is absolutely zero question about that.

I’d say the / should be a > but agreed.

Pretty much everything is available in a package manager, flatpaks, etc.

If you’re at the point of building from source, I don’t think you’re in regular user territory to start with.
