The Surpreme Court unlike lower courts can overrule prior decisions it’s made. Thats how Roe v Wade was overturned

Oh yes it’s a thing, to a lesser extent than Reddit though obviously. In order for anything to be done about it though, the bot accounts usually have to do something that betrays the fact that they’re bot accounts though. Such as accidentally passing through a variable instead of the value, such as with your post. Hence why you will see people question you

For good reason. For years bots have been making Reddit posts just to farm for content for YouTube videos or market research

The way it works is that finding vulnerabilities required a lot of technical understanding and mental effort. A software could have a glaring hole in it for years without anyone finding out simply due to nobody really looking. AI just gives you the ability to do rudimentary exploit analysis around the clock without having to spend your own time. This is a wake up call to anyone making software in sloppy fashion.

But it isn’t quite as easy as saying “AI hack into this service”, if the person doing the hacking is using the same model as the person who made the service, and that person already asked the AI to do that and fixed the resulting exploit prior to release.

Even projects that use AI in a limited fashion to code or even not at all, often use AI to at least do some red team stuff prior to release.

I don’t really foresee any way this doesn’t even out eventually.

Respectfully to you personally as your heart is absolutely in the right place, Americans do not need or at this point want Canadian forgiveness. Canadians have their own problems with their far right neighbors that they will continue to underestimate until it’s too late. And when that happens, the majority of Americans — who respect and support Canada and its people, who were outraged over the governments treatment of Canada, and who turned that outrage into action through protests and yesterdays rejection of the current government, will remember how Canadians turned on them.

The global rise of far-right authoritarianism defies borders and those of us standing against it should have been standing shoulder to shoulder, but instead Canada would rather blame all Americans while burying its head in the sand and pretending like the same thing couldn’t happen there. As if America is somehow uniquely susceptible to a problem that has been plaguing the entire world. First they doubted Americans would deliver on the rejection of its government, and now that they have, they disqualify it.

We should and we have to put things to rights with Canada because it’s the right thing to do, and it’s what our northern neighbors deserve, but frankly the holier-than-thou pearl clutching that has dominated online Canadian-American discourse has sucked the well of Canadian sympathy dry for a lot of people.

Yes pretty much everyone alive knows what a cassette is. They might not know what a Commodore is specifically

I haven’t used Umbrel but I’m pretty sure it predates the AI times

Even with the inflated prices, buying storage is much cheaper than renting it from cloud services.

The target lifetimes for a NAS hard drive is 5 years. A 16TB NAS drive will cost less over that 5 years than Apple’s 2TB cloud storage plan. And that’s assuming Apple won’t raise over those 5 years (they will).

You didn’t know that when you asked a question to the community that people would answer it? Ok.

So you asked the question rhetorically in bad faith because you just wanted to evangelize Jellyfin, got it. This is exactly why the Jellyfin’s Witnesses have the reputation they do lol

I’m not saying you don’t think it’s polished, I’m saying that if Jellyfin is where you set the bar for what “polished” means to you, then the rest of the open source world is going to blow your mind. Like you have nowhere to go but up from here.

Jellyfin being a duct taped mess on the other hand isn’t part of any subjective opinion, that’s just the state the software is in. Like it’s just missing basic features of its competitors, and has been stuck in relative development hell trying to rework the internals it inherited from Emby.

If you think there’s anything polished about Jellyfin there’s a whole world of open source projects out there for you to discover. The world is your oyster.

It definitely isn’t mature by any measure. It’s been stuck in the process of fixing technical debt and poor design decisions from the project it was forked from for years now and still isn’t finished, though they’ve made some progress in the last couple years. But I’m not sure if they are going to keep the momentum up since several lead maintainers have left the project recently. Jellyfin still hasn’t figured out table stakes features like native intro and credit skipping, OIDC support, etc. There are some devastating bugs that having been around more most of its lifetime too. One they fixed like a month ago was if Jellyfin couldn’t access your media files for even a short period of time, it would delete all media from your playlists and you’d have to recreate them one one.

I wouldn’t call it subjective. The issues that it has are all objectively there, whether or not you’re bothered by them is what’s subjective. If you’re personally ok with all the quirks, bugs, missing features and general lack of polish that plague Jellyfin but not Plex more power to you. But those problems exist regardless, and they are the answer to the question you asked.

Running your own crypto miners doesn’t make sense anymore because the cost of electricity. Running a crypto miner using someone else’s electricity on the other hand…

Because Jellyfin is an ugly, duct-taped-together mess. It’s very utilitarian at best, when everything is working. Ease of use is just not there for your non-technical friends and family.

Invariably whenever you bring any of these issues up, people will come out of the woodwork and tell you “Oh you just have to bolt this thing on or use it in this one specific unintended way in order to get it working halfway towards what you want”.

Nah it’s more like all the sites and services that used blocked links that you have to add to the whitelist or in some cases be able to turn the protection off and on. It’s a regular occurrence for me

Because you have to mess with it all the time. It’s easier to get in and get out to make changes with the nice interface. It’d be different if it was set it and forget it but realistically it’s not.

The main way is it has a built in recursive DNS server so you don’t have to duct tape Pi Hole and Ubound together

I guess you’d spend the time detailing it since it’s literally your point to make. You made a top level comment on this post complaining about how the Democrats won’t do…something that you are unable to articulate, yet demand from them.

Continuing to be evasive by refusing to elaborate on your own opinion is not exactly helping you make whatever point it is you’re trying to make. Nor is calling other people children while you behave like the quintessential Reddit teenager.

It’s ironic that folks like you claim to be against the concept of “All talk no action” when you yourselves only ever vaguely allude to what it is you think the Democrats should be doing.

The children’s table is reserved for the adult children that complain loudly but don’t actually have any solutions.

If there’s something you think the Democrats should be doing, why don’t you just say it?

He’s probably frustrated by your lack of understanding of the civic system.
