maybe it worked like that at one point. it’s clear that it no longer works that way, not when the “innovators” also control all the levers of the economy. Everything is a pump-and-dump scheme these days.

Finally, an actually beneficial use case for AI. This is what this technology is good for, pattern predictions based on ridiculously large datasets. But noooo it’s new technology so everyone wants to use it to make themselves rich. I hate this world.

You’re right, but still. Reduction of options is never good for the community.

not sure what beef you have with GN, but they’ve seemed pretty rock-solid reliable to me for years now. Just good, detailed benchmarking and high-quality journalism. Unlike many tech channels and blogs, they actually cite their sources thoroughly.

And for the record, the Kraken Z7 I bought 6 years ago and mounted vertically is still running quite strong, despite gamers nexus all but telling me I was an asshole for mounting it that way because it was going to die within 2 years and I’ll have only myself to blame.

Quick google is pulling up no parts called “Kraken Z7” so not exactly sure what you’re talking about. I think you’re referring to this AIO mounting video they did 5 years ago? Generally speaking, computer parts are subject to a binning process, which means not all parts are created equal. Just because your AIO has lasted 6 years with a suboptimal orientation doesn’t mean that every Kraken Z7 will last 6 years in that orientation. In that video, Steve uses a lot of qualifying language. In the chapter testing vertical orientation, he even specifically says “this one is more about noise than performance”. They also say that you could mount vertically with the tubes towards the bottom of the radiator, and that would solve most of the issues. They supplied tons of testing and evidence proving that their recommended orientations would work best. I’m not sure how you heard “this could shorten the life of your AIO” and took that as a personal attack, but sure. Take it out on GN i guess.

Well if they drop Jellyfin, I know at least one friend that would rather drop their Fire TV than go without. Here’s hoping this backfires and just drops Amazon’s TV user base with no positive tradeoff for them.

TL;DW: Gamers Nexus was contacted by the U.S. Secret Service because of their investigation into Nvidia’s slow corruption. In this vid, Steve and crew dive into how Nvidia has been getting into bed with Palantir, the Trump admin, and the global elite that are fueling the AI bubble. Nvidia went from almost no political contributions ever, to donating a massive amount to the Trump/Vance ticket. And GN brought RECEIPTS.

Hmm I’m not sure about contributing. You’ve presented yourself as someone too broke to afford a VPN so I didn’t think you were buying CDs and ripping flacs. Sorry if I misunderstood your goals. I was more focused on the goal of obtaining files.

Edit: ps, not sure if you saw yet, but I pm’d you about another possible solution.

If they haven’t divested yet, they have no morals and no common sense. Or they are betting on a more friendly future for Nazis. Either way, I think we need to stop caring what Tesla investors think. They’re all Nazi sympathizers at this point.

Either way, if ruins it for everyone else.

How does it ruin it for everyone else? One slow peer does not ruin the network.

Doesn’t Proton have a free VPN tier? I think it doesn’t support port forwarding so your connections would be limited, but that might still work?

Otherwise, check the megathread and go with direct downloads. Those happen over https so completely encrypted.

No, but they can say that it was all Jim’s fault and then fire Jim.

just checked on my server, which is on 10.11. Android app seems to be working fine. I tried signing out and then signing back in, and I was able to do so without issue. It’s sounding like this is an issue specific to your machine.

It’s astounding the way Republicans will ruin literally everything they touch. They can’t even keep a grant program running without turning it into an extortion racket.

Rentry megathread is my first resource, personally. After that, fmhy, which others have mentioned.

just installed and almost through the library scan! with my 8tb library, the installation was very quick and easy. did not run into any multi-hour migrations like they describe in the blog post.

That makes sense. I’m just not sure how to make that a clean experience, beyond acquiring files and setting up my own server.

Isn’t port binding in the advanced settings? If you reset advanced settings to default, don’t forget to re-bind your client to your VPN to avoid leaks!

I wonder if even VLC could run those streams for you? 🤔 Not sure, but whats the appeal for you over just opening the browser on your HTPC?

i hate that you’re right

tl;dr - none of the rumors about her imprisonment were overblown. she and the other activists were literally tortured: abused, beaten, dehumanized, starved of food and water, made to sleep in bug-infested cells, forced to sleep in the cold and stand all day in the heat outdoors while severely dehydrated. Some of her words:

They moved me very brutally to a corner that I was turned towards. ‘A special place for a special lady’, they said. And then they had learned ‘Lilla hora’ (Little whore) and ‘Hora Greta’ (Whore Greta) in Swedish, which they repeated all the time.

It was mockery, rough handling, and everything was filmed. Everything they do is extremely violent. People’s medications were thrown into the trash can in front of their eyes. Heart medication, cancer medication, insulin.

What we have been through is only a small, small part of what Palestinians have experienced. On the walls of our prison cells, we saw bullet holes with bloodstains and messages carved into the walls by Palestinian prisoners who had been there before us.

The flag was placed so that it would touch me. When it fluttered and touched me, they shouted ‘Don’t touch the flag’ and kicked me in the side. After a while, my hands were tied with cable ties, very tightly. A bunch of guards lined up to take selfies with me while I was sitting like that.
