It sounds a little dire, but I could imagine if in some places of the world governments get worse and want to fuck people, it could be really easy to pin cybercrime on them.

Could the titular jellyfin server be caught by shitty mac or windows (or god damn smart tv) spyware?

U.S. District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers had ordered Apple to lower the barriers protecting its previously exclusive payment system for in-app digital transactions and allow developers to display links to alternative options. On Wednesday she found that Apple violated a 2021 injunction that, she wrote, sought to “restrain and prohibit the iPhone maker’s anticompetitive conduct” and pricing.

“Apple’s continued attempts to interfere with competition will not be tolerated,” Gonzalez Rogers said in the ruling, which held Apple in contempt.

She ordered that Apple “no longer impede developers’ ability to communicate with users nor will they levy or impose a new commission on off-app purchases.”

Hey, all!

I've been manually importing each and every video I download from YouTube into my setup for Plex/Jellyfin, manually changing the date to the correct day it was uploaded, manually copy and pasting the description (if it has one that matters, and not just some links to websites or whatever. More so the ones that say "join me today as we go through this old series and learn more about the..." stuff like that), and even manually setting the thumbnail/"poster" for the video. I've been using JDownloader2 for this, as it is GUI (pretty necessary for me, but I am willing to see what else people recommend!) based and works really well.

This was fine for awhile, because I was just doing a video here and there. Last week, I downloaded an entire playlist, and am now seeing that my method is very, very, very cumbersome for what I have downloaded now. I did go through a few of them to manually import, and will continue to do so on my days I am too tired to do much else, but I wanted to ask this wonderful community on better methods. Hopefully, we can get my methods more refined and less manual!

I saw this, and it looks good. I also know about Pinchflat , and was really excited for that one, but alas, my TrueNAS Scale did not like that very much! (permissions issue I am sure, but I've already fought with the permissions on TrueNAS Scale, and I just don't know what the hell it wants from me, but oh well!)

Pinchflat looks more like what I'd need, but I also like to see what other more experienced people might've found or any recommendations they may have!

Thank you for taking the time to read and help! :)

Hey All!

Been tinkering on a side project called Quickpoint. It’s a super lightweight, keyboard-first writing and sharing tool. Think of it like a notepad that instantly turns what you type into a shareable page- for notes, code demos, quick thoughts, or even presentations.

The goal is to stay in flow. no tabs, no formatting fluff, just type and share. I’m still very early (beta-ish stage), so I’d love feedback!

It's Quickpoint.me

You don’t need to sign up. just hit the link and try it. Would really appreciate your thoughts, and happy to check out anything you’re building too.

Thanks! 🙏

My budget is ~500 Euro.

I haven't built a PC in 10 years, I gave no idea where to start.

It will mostly be used to run Nextcloud, Minecraft Server and some future homelab projects.

I'm thinking of using this for the case https://www.the-diy-life.com/introducing-lab-rax-a-3d-printable-modular-10-rack-system

Where do I start? What CPU or motherboard would you recommend? I want it to be somewhat future proof and also act as a NAS

CW: suicidal ideation

Firstly, an apology. I've posted here a couple of times during low moments and then never followed up. Received a lot of helpful and sympathetic comments each time and it's kinda shitty I've never even updated my original posts about things being better (because they are).

Onto the meat. Between a couple of long-term relationships and long periods of not really looking for a partner, I hadn't realised I'd managed to get to my late 20s without ever having to 'date'. Both my serious relationships were friends that progressed onto the next level.

Emotionally, this stuff is devastating. Matching with someone who seems interesting and attractive, and they cannot/will not genuinely engage in conversation. Having an amazing conversation with someone in an evening, and then nothing ever again.

Worst are all the feelings associated with RSD when you're not sure there's even a problem. But you are certain there's an issue. How'd you explain that to anyone? How'd you explain that to them?

Idk why I'm posting this rant. I'm sorry for disturbing you all. I don't even want someone to tell me I'm wrong or right or anything else. Selfishly, all I want is for someone to tell me:

'Yeah, no, you're right there's something wrong with you in particular. You really will never be happy and you're right, you shouldn't be here. No, you're absolutely right, there's an unplacable ugliness to you that you can't fix and everyone will always notice.'

I don't know what I'd do if someone confirmed all my worst fears but I think it'd make me feel better? Like things made sense? Like I was correct about something for once.

Sorry again.

Do you ever wish that you could block all ads on YouTube because Google is a pressure target for the BDS movement? Or maybe you just hate ads?

To block ads on YouTube:

  1. Install Firefox

  2. Install uBlock Origin: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-CA/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/

  3. (Android) Set Firefox to ask before opening links in apps: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/set-firefox-android-open-links-native-apps

:lovepalestine:

I wish more leftist creators would migrate to alternative platforms.

Israel is perpetrating a “live-streamed genocide” in Gaza, committing illegal acts with the “specific intent” of wiping out Palestinians, Amnesty International has said.

Israeli forces in Gaza have violated the United Nations Genocide Convention with acts that include “causing serious bodily or mental harm to civilians” and “deliberately inflicting conditions of life calculated to bring about their physical destruction”, the human rights organisation said in its annual report released on Monday.

More than 51,300 people, including at least 17,400 children, have been killed by Israeli forces in Gaza since October 7, 2023, according to Palestinian health authorities.

Israel’s urgent security needs override its obligations to provide aid to Palestinians in Gaza, a US state department lawyer has told the international court of justice (ICJ).

Joshua Simmons spoke as the United Nations’ top court hears a case on Israel’s ban on cooperation with Unwra, the UN’s main agency for Palestinians.

He said that Israel had no duty under the Geneva convention to cooperate specifically with Unrwa, due to its concerns about the organisation’s links to Hamas – an allegation that has been fiercely contested.

Simmons addressed the ICJ in The Hague on the third day of the hearing and the 60th day of Israel’s complete ban on any aid, food or water entering Gaza. The ban applies to all agencies, but in October the Knesset voted to end all cooperation with Unrwa specifically, bringing its operations to a halt.

MAGA fans are rejoicing on social media in favor of President Donald Trump's plan to sign an executive order requiring commercial truck drivers to speak English.

Breitbart News reported that Trump would sign the order Monday evening because "President Trump believes that English is a non-negotiable safety requirement for professional drivers." Last month, Trump designated English as "the official language of the United States."

"This is such a big deal! So grateful for this, the roads will be much safer. Like many, I have seen many accidents or near accidents from unqualified drivers," posted @coffeegirlvegas.
