lud,

Does anyone still use POP?

lud,

Yes, they do with the official app, I think you could turn it off though.

lud,

If you’re from the EU you can just reject all cookies and all ads disappear.

lud,

Wouldn’t it be nice if Linux always prompted for confirmation (with red text or something) if you were messing around with / since that’s not something someone does very often.

How to begin setting up a media center?

I have 16TB NAS dedicated to storing TV shows. It is just a cabinet with ryzen 2600 and no graphics card. I have installed openmediavault in it to access it via smb to other devices. I am an absolute noob in setting up a server. Please tell me how I should go on about turning it into a media consumption machine....

lud,

Hard? I did it really easily a few years ago. The hard part is naming everything correctly, not setting it up.

With Plex it also sets up remote access automatically which I don’t believe Jellyfin does.

I had no idea that you could download movies from the 90ies from archive.org (jeena.net)

I couldn’t find the Flintstones movie from 1994 anywhere but googling it I found it here archive.org/details/the-flintstones_202304 and you can either download it via torrent or directly. On top of it it says that the movie is CC0 which means Public Domain. But that can’t really be, it’s only 29 years old....

lud,

Yes, I know. I was just referring to anyone from any federated instance reading it. I used the word Lemmy because it’s easier.

It’s basically the same thing in the end anyways. How the backend works is not really relevant.

lud,

Some people from Lemmy probably just flagged it.

lud,

It’s still pretty cool though. Especially DRM like denuvo, it’s pretty amazing how the DRM can scramble stuff and unscramble it and how it has multiple redundant ways to detect if it’s working correctly or not.

It’s even crazier how some people can remove it.

Denuvo absolutely worsens the UX though. Not sure if the Autodesk thing would worsen it though. Doesn’t sound like it.

lud,

It will stop a lot of attacks but if someone figures it out, you’re screwed. So I don’t recommend it.

But years ago I used the same password everywhere except with a few differences due to different requirements (like special characters) and the weakest passwords I used got leaked on pastebin (or similar). And sure enough many accounts got compromised, not a huge deal and I didn’t lose anything I cared about.

The interesting part is that no-one seemed to try the leaked password + 1234 or a capital letter in the beginning.

lud,

I agree, it’s probably the streaming service I use the most apart from Plex.

lud,

This has basically always been the case for Disney plus in my country since shortly after launch.

We don’t have Hulu but loads of programs from there (and elsewhere) are on what Disney plus calls “star”

lud, (edited )

I don’t get the point of IPTV anymore.

Sure you get it for free or cheap, but you couldn’t pay me to watch regular TV in a world with streaming (and Piracy).

lud,

1920×1080 FH

Not 2k. Not 16:9.

How isn’t that 19:9?

And QHD isn’t really necessary on a laptop imo.

I still won’t buy it though.

lud,

It’s just a bad joke.

lud,

“cooperative”?

lud,

Yeah, I figured that you were for it.

There are a few clues.

Either way, a workers cooperative isn’t socialism and they exist all over the world.

lud,

I don’t know.

I couldn’t see how Walmart and BP were connected and I didn’t expect you to bring up two unrelated companies like that.

lud,

I just used the old name because I wanted to clarify what I thought they meant by BP.

I thought that was kinda obvious.

lud,

What is “BP”? I’m assuming you don’t mean British Petroleum.

lud,

Wtf

lud,

District heating wins yet again ;)

lud,

No, at least some apartments exist in pretty much every slightly large town.

They aren’t Skyscrapers or anything, often just 3-6 floors but apartments nonetheless.

lud,

Absolutely, the majority of the population does live in “small houses” with 1-2 families but over 40% live in “Multifamily residential” with more than 2 families per building. I suspect that most of the “Multifamily residential” buildings are considered to be apartments.

The country is very sparse but that’s mainly because there is a lot of land with absolutely nothing except trees. Most live in cities or towns where it’s much denser (obviously nowhere close to Paris or London though)

lud,

I like the comment but had to downvote it because the English is atrocious

lud,

I just copied the comment above.
