Bullshit
Stop the calls for killing the rich. Don't blame people for playing the game, just change the rules. Tax the rich for all they have until everyone lives in a tops 1-5 ratio of networth. All of the sudden, poverty gone, we can do universal healthcare easily, government will have boat loads for anything to make our lives better
That's the same as saying that Hitler wasn't all bad because he liked dogs and built highways. You're kind of ignoring the big point that is poking you in the butt...
As Steve Ballmer said.... Linux Linux Linux Linux Linux Linux Linux Linux Linux Linux Linux Linux ....
On a slightly more serious note though: switch to Linux, jd if you still need windows for something, run it in a VM under Linux. Just don't pay for the license because fuck Microsoft
"We let known security holes in our products, causing even the US government to be hacked, because revealing tha they existed in the first place would cost customers and hurt our bottom and only line: money. But don't worry! Our CEO just promised we will never do it again, pretty smile".
He could admit to raping little children and his base would just say these children were blessed by his dick
Tell me you're an abusive spouse without telling me you're an abusive spouse
What a sad little man
The death of the sun will then eventually set you free into the gravity well of the sun where you'll live burning hot untill heat death of the universe. What to do after that is anyone's guess
Nah, CTRL SHIFT ESC ... Click and it's gone
Look around, there are loads and loads of Linux open source tools that do the same, just dont have a fancy name.
With the Republican party, Every accusation is a confession
Why wouldn't they? It worked before, twice. No reason why it wouldn't work a third time
Satellite internet already existed way, way before Starlink. You know, good satellite internet where you have a single geostationary satellite giving you high speed instead of these small Leo ones that will fall out of orbit within a decade...
Why would Taiwan even need Starlink?
Having said that: fuck Musk, and yeah, they should never have allowed this dumb ass anywhere near rockets
Auto complete is about... 60% helpful and increases my productivity with about 5-10% as I need to double check everything it does and half the time it's something ridiculously stoopid
That would explain the decline in quality of everything from Google. Even Gmail is becoming buggy as hell, even though I haven't seen any new features added. I have used Gmail since it's founding and only in the last year or so did it become extremely buggy.
Ah yes, gotta love our little tankies
Tax.
Tax them like there is no tomorrow.
Billionaires should simply not exist. Put a cap on total net worth and if you pass that, income tax goes to 100. If your networth goes up anyway because of stocks or whatever, tax that too. Tax stocks, homes, boats, etc.
Enormous wealth should be like the speed of light. The closer you get there, the heavier it becomes to stay there, you need to spend more and more energy to get less and less higher.
This should not be a crazy idea.
You just gotta love that this place is called "liberty", a place where you're free to do whatever you want as look as you only do the things a tiny group of people allow you to do.
The one thing that really REALLY disgusts me beyond anything is just the sheer hypocrisy on the right / conservative side. They break all the rules, they commit all the crimes, and immediately turn around and accuse the "other side" of doing exactly what they just did, and then call themselves "liberty" or " law abiding" or some shit like that. It soooo grinds my gears...
If you're going to be evil, then at least fucking own it. At least call yourself a dictator, at least call yourself a religious terrorist. Say what you want about al Qaeda, but at least they know they're evil and they don't pretend to be a loving sweet group of happy campers.
Not sure if I agree. If you'd do that you'll lose CEO's, not the highly skilled workers that actually do the work..one might wonder howuch would be lost there.
Also, where would they go? Any developed country will have it much, MUCH "worse" for them than the US and the alternative is moving to heavenly places like Russia or China. Good luck with that.
Just to add to this: rockets use a lot of fuel. And with "a lot" I mean that a rocket typically is 90% fuel, 7% rocket, 3% cargo (my numbers may be off a bit, but not by much). The further you want to go the more fuel you need, the heavier you get,the more fuel you need, and so on.
So to move out 100 tonnes of cargo, were going to waste, say 3000 tonnes of fuel, and that is just to get it into orbit. Getting enough speed to get it to the sun would probably literally require exponential amounts of extra fuel, which would require extra fuel rockets to come up, rockets just carrying "a little bit of" fuel for another rocket.
Then on going to the sun: the earth moves at about 30km/s around the sun. To cancel that out, you'd need a rocket capable of reaching 30km/s, which we currently -afaik- cannot. We can't get rocket engines that can eject the burning gasses out at those soeeds, hence we can't reach that speed, hence we can't cancel out 30km/s. We'd need entirely new technology to be able to do that
So much of this reminds me of Yugoslavia in the months leading up to that bloody civil war where neighbor killed neighbors, men, women and children were slaughtered just and only because of their ethnicity
The upcoming weeks will be interesting to say the least
Harris needs to douch more than just help US families. She's either going to rebuild the political system from the ground up or next elections after her will be the last. Dictators are knocking on the door and damn near half of the US is desperately trying to get that door open because they've been brainwashed into believing it's the right thing to do
The entire winner takes all needs to go out the window, it will destroy the country. Electoral college, out the window, it's a stupid idea to begin with. Gerrymandering, out. The supreme Court members should have a 4 years max tenure and requires VERY strict rules to avoid corruption
Concepts like fox news should be prohibited, too. Freedom of speech? Sure, but if you claim to be a news organization you either do your dned best to be honest or you get shut down. Fox news and honesty is like fore and water, it doesn't go together.
Just a few ideas to begin with
This is super annoying, as I try to pinch gesture zoom in on an image, and I'll go out of the media back to the list again instead.
I'd like to click to already zoom in somewhat, making punch zoom even easier
If I want to get out, I'll press the back button on my phone, or the back button of connect
So I'm back with Netflix and Amazon. I'm kind of done with jellyfin at this point. I've been recommending it to everyone and honestly I'm not sure that I still would.
Jellyfin as a product simply doesn't work. There, I said it.
For a media system I'd hope for the basics to be able to play a movie or show with subtitles, selecting audio channels, and scrubbing and it to remember where I was left. I wouldn't even need posters and all that, I'd get my own subtitles, etc.
I have multiple TVs, but let's go with the old one with a chrome cast. I use my Android phone to cast a show episode. Scrubbing sometimes works. it works better than before because before it would just break everything to the point of the app requiring a reinstall. At least that's fixed now but scrubbing still is SLOW, 10 seconds ahead takes 20-30 seconds to do. Worse though, it borks up subtitles by leaving the subtitles that were there when you started scrubbing, and places the new ones on top of that. The only way out is to exit casting completely, kill the app, restart all from scratch. Obviously JF doesn't continue where I stopped (seriously, requests on that timeframe were made, it can't be that hard to register that, can it?) and so I need to scrub again which, you know, borks up subtitles. So I'll start just from the beginning, I can rewatch the same 5 minutes twice but it annoys the hell out of my wife.
Then, subtitles is a mess. The above, but also switching subtitles will cause similar issues. Don't touch anything when having subtitles!
Then: it's slow. It's godunholy slow. I have a 16 core and Rhyzen 5 cpu, 64gb men @3200mhz, 1tb M2 Samsung Evo 989 pro, and ~60tb over 3 exos drives. An AMD rx7800 XT finishes up the config. It's not the best of the best, but my system, u believe, ranks in the higher ranks of jellyfin installations
Jellyfin cannot play a movie or show without stuttering at least a few times, flat out freezing for minutes during shows, especially in the second episode for that day... If I run transmission in parallel, it just freezes up so much that it's undoable.
Logs don't indicate any major issue, I saw a freeze and had all logs on tail and literally saw no messages whatsoever during that freeze. System utilization was near zero.
Wife isnt tolerating jellyfin anymore and now I have Netflix and Amazon accounts again.
I understand it's open source software, you do what you can, but right now it simply isn't a system that is for the general public. It can be used by nerds like me who have the patience to deal with all the issues.
Edit: Really? 17 downvotes? I'm trying to tell you that the thing doesn't work and that I've spent plenty of time trying to fix it, reading docs, posting questions, nothing has fixed anything so far but can't have people talk about that, or what's wrong?
Happy to see that fuckcars is one of the first Reddit communities to appear on Lemmy for me!
