Help Us Hack The Software Industry!!!
  • No

    People use windows because Microsoft has an enormous marketing and legal department that will do anything needed to put the image in people's head that Linux sucks, windows is awesome. Open source sucks, but office365 is amazing.

    People use windows because they manage do get windows everywhere in schools and companies. They use windows because they can't avoid it

    The problem, of course, is that windows is an absulute turd of a system, it is fucking godawful when placed next to Linux.

    If Microsoft would spend the same amounts of money on proper software development as they did on legal and marketing, windows wouldn't be as bad, but also nobody would be using it

  • Mark Zuckerberg visits Trump at Mar-a-Lago, reportedly 'wants to support the national renewal'
  • Do they, though?

    Scientists drive innovation, engineers drive innovation

    Billionaires just throw money around

    Tax billionaires until their fortune is at a max of say, 10 million dollars. Use those trillions in tax revenue to fund a wife range of non profit orgs that will fund companies to improve innovation.

    Sounds like a much better solution than the current timeline

  • How to set up laptop for corporate usage, so contents can be erased.
  • You need a legal solution, not a technical.

    What you're asking for is an mdm solution, but once a user has access to data, that user can copy it whether you like it or not, whatever mdm solution you use.

    Even if you lock down everything, break the USB ports physically, I can photograph the screen, for example.

    This has been an age old problem and honestly mdm tools are kind of a hammer where you need a screw driver. It advertises a lack of trust on your end, adds a lot of complexity and potential usability problems and in the end will still never be able to protect you 100%

    Go for a legal option and find people you can trust. Also know that 100% security does not exist. The only 100% secure computer is off and on fire.

  • RFK Jr. attacked the CDC’s ‘fascism’ and likened vaccinating children to abuse by the Catholic Church
  • People like these will end up causing thousands of deathsand untold suffering

    At the inevitable end, when people finally realize what normal people already have known for a century (that none of these policies work) I expect them all to be punished appropriately. None of this "one death is a tragedy but a million deaths is a statistic" bullshit, if multiple homicides gets you life, what should thousands get you?

  • What are some illegal things that should be legal?
  • With limits

    Fentanyl, for example, should require doctors guidance at least, and forced medical help to get off of it when you're displaying addiction behavior.

    Euthanasia should also be legal, but with strict rules. You want to avoid someone off themselves just because they're having a bad day

  • Really?
  • That VERY much depends on mission requirements. The F35 has issues, but calling it a big piece of shit shows that you're an internet troll who has no idea what it's talking about

  • change: option to not exit media posts with a click on the media

    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...

    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?
