It's ".il", for anyone wondering.

Le Pen the elder is dead. His daughter is still alive and throwing tantrums.

The Jellyfin devs have quite clearly outlined some of the issues in the setup guides, and others are detailed in issues on Github. They do work on it, but most bad code was inherited and they have limited time on their hands to fix it, preferably in a way that doesn't instantly mess up everyone's setups.

Personally it's quite nice. I just request what I want to watch and the system grabs it automatically. It can download from Usenet too.

Put your files in a randomly named root folder and it's fixed. Even still, isn't the worst they could do pirating your service?

It takes fairly little effort to set up Jellyfin. I think there's scripts these days that set up the entire arr stack for you in a matter of minutes.

The maximum appears to be a prison sentence of 43 years.

Each judge comes to their own verdict. They're all ready, but given the exceptional case before them it takes a while to go through each of their verdicts.

It is but I'm not sure it's a bad thing.

Err, the law requiring social media to register also has very broad provisions for government mandated removal of content from these social media. So it's not exactly unlikely that that would have been the next step after the registration deadline had passed.

You are completely right that social media needs some form of regulation to avoid their nasty sides btw. But that's not what this law was seemingly intent on doing.

None of those apply to what Palestine Action did though.

Last I looked the vast majority of the people in USSR, including the Baltics, voted against the break up when the referendum was held.

Maybe look a little bit harder. In the 1990s the Baltics each saw a majority vote for pro-independence parties. Each of the three states organised a referendum on independence, and all three voted in favour (by 77%, 78% and even 90+% in Lithuania).

The march 14th 1991 referendum you're probably referring to was not held in the Baltics. Additionally, it is often framed as a vote against independence, but that's not really what was on the ballot in the first place. The referendum was on the New Union Treaty, and was phrased as:

Do you consider necessary the preservation of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics as a renewed federation of equal sovereign republics in which the rights and freedom of an individual of any ethnicity will be fully guaranteed?

Emphasis mine. Note that the alternative in this case was the USSR continuing as it existed before, meaning there was no vote on the dissolution of the union. The majority voted in the direction of more sovereignty for the constituent states, the closest thing to independence on the ballot.

Pro-Soviet groups in the Baltics did attempt to hold their own independence referendums, but none managed to reach a 50% turnout and they were boycotted by the Baltic Supreme councils.
