  • Andrew Tate charged with 21 offences

  • Apologies, I didn't mean the legal definition of pf Asylum. The Tate brothers are both American citizens, but they're definitely leaning on the current political climate in the US to avoid consequences

  • Unfortunately I believe both of them are currently in Romania/US at the moment. The UK may have brought charges against them, but they seem to have pretty much escaped prosecution in Romania and have found Asylum in the US under the current government. It's unlikely that either Tates step back into the UK.

  • Jellyfin / Remote Access Help (windows)

    Jump

  • Oh yeah, at the time there was no support for my current registrar. It was a fun enough project to put my own script together anyways.

  • This is probably not what you're looking for, but I found registering a cheap domain name and using a dynamic DNS script that checks every hour or so against your public IP to be a good way to mitigate issues. It also depends on your ISP. Mine typically only renews upon a reboot of the modem or a new PPPoE authentication.

    Others have also suggested Tailscale, and I think that's also a worthwhile option. It's a pretty easy thing to set and forget, working like any oher VPN client. This is the least complex option to navigate, and if Plex was the only service you were forwarding then it's likely the best option.

  • Ultimately this change, while frustrating, probably doesn't change the initial value for those who fit these two categories:

    • Needs Windows
    • Cares about their privacy

    These people were already going to go out of their way to use the OOBE bypass. They still will. This is no more effort thanbit already was.

    Microsoft crossed the line already by disallowing offline account creation through their default setup process.

  • I mean, not really. You had to open command prompt anyways. The command is just a bit different now. There's no monetary penalty here, just a few more keystrokes.

  • Almost as annoying as the windows evangelists

    Jump

  • I agree. For regular user facing tasks, the terminal should be a last resort. I say this as someone who will happily defer to the terminal if I need more advanced control. But when basic configuration is subject to just CLI, it's not as accessible as it could or should be

  • Why indeed

  • Better than that, the lack of reliance on spinning disks means that asset duplication and data read order is less of a requirement to reduce load times. It can still be argued that there's just too many polygons, since simply scaling things back would be plenty effective in reducing storage usage and load times.

  • Potential ketamine addiction aside, he's just gravitated toward where he sees more money and unfluence for himself. He wanted the prestige of being a leader in tech, so he used his influence and money to build SpaceX. Then he bullied his way into the ownership of Tesla, desperately wanting to appear as a genius to libertarian and liberal minds alike, but he's never been any less of an authoritarian. When Trump rose to power the first time, he sat and watched and along with the rest of the Silicon Valley Moguls, he began to move himself into positions of influence with populist politicians, borrowing the evangelical right's playbooks and throwing himself into the spotlight no matter the reason. He pivoted off his falsified image as some kind of American self-starter into MAGA rhetoric.

    Musk doesn't have lofty ideals or any real focus on the betterment of society. I don't think he ever did. He just wanted to be a real life Tony Stark and command the influence that came with it. Now he doesn't need to, because he's got Trump in his back pocket and is mostly untouchable by any normal means.

  • Kindle Is Making It Harder to Switch to Rival eReader Brands.

    Jump

  • I wonder if this is at all related to the EU changes to eBook DRM standards, where the standard Kindle Adobe DRM isn't compliant

  • Reassessing Wayland

    Jump

  • I use Wayland exclusively, but unfortunately I don't think I have an answer for you since I'm not entirely familiar with this idea. Is your concern just for the configuration of a universal set of hotkeys configured within the compositor rather than a desktop environment?

    I wasn't aware that x11 facilitated this. I'd have figured keyboard mappings are abstracted from the compositor and left to the DE to handle, aside from core binds that allow dropping back to tty

  • You know, people gripe about it endlessly, but after they rewrote it to be more performant, most of my problems with it ended there. It's fine as a chat client. Calls work well, video hasn't been a problem, screen share quality is decent and you can even provide remote support through it in a pinch. It doesn't even consume 2GB+ of memory when sitting idle anymore.

    As far as Electron apps go, Teams hasn't been terrible for a long time now.
