Jellyfin: The Free Software Media System
  • I just got this stuff up and running in the last week. Here's the basic stuff I'm using and a quick breakdown:

    1. Jellyfin. This is just a media server. Got media files on a hard drive? Point Jellyfin at them, and it will index and serve them in a pretty web UI on your local network.

    2. qBittorrent. For downloading media files based on torrents.

    3. Sonarr/radarr. Keep track of shows (sonarr) and movies (radarr). Keeps track of the content you have, what's missing, and keeps up on upcoming releases. Is able to use torrent indexes to find torrents, and sends them to qBittorrent. Once the download is done, automatically moves the files to your media library to get picked up by Jellyfin

    4. Prowlarr. Easier way to find torrent indexes. Browse indexes, pick some, and it hands them off to sonarr and radarr so they can find torrents.

    This is generally how my setup is working at the moment.

  • Built on Bluesky, Pinksky brings its Instagram-like app to Android
  • The person you are replying to is talking about pink sky being built on bluesky, and you equate that to Lemmy being based on Reddit. One is a hard technical dependency, and the other is a conceptual inspiration.

    You are engaging in an equivocation fallacy, and I think you know that. You even try to sneak it in by switching to a different but similar word (built->based) with a different meaning, then you switched back again to "built" while using the term in the same way you used "based", then you start using other phrasing to obscure it even more. You are gaslighting with word games to try and get people to not notice your fallacy. It's super dishonest.

  • How JavaScript Overuse Ruined the Web
  • Seems like you read the first two sentences of my post and stopped there, so you completely missed the point.

    It's not JS that is the problem. It's an issue of client resource use. That would be true no matter what language is being used.

  • How JavaScript Overuse Ruined the Web
  • That's not necessarily special to JS. It's special to client-side code. A mobile app writing in swift could do this. A cli tool written in any language could do this.

    This isn't an argument against JS, it's an argument against misuse of client resources.

  • We're RIGHT HERE :(
  • I used to think that the perceived complexity of the fediverse was creating a hurdle for more adoption.

    Now all these fucking people are learning Chinese to better use RedNote.

    Apparently convenience isn't actually a barrier? I'm baffled why so many people are flocking to anything other than the fediverse.

  • I never claimed to support genocide. I claimed that it is better to vote for the better option of the two. You are moving the goal posts.

    I'll make it simple for you by reframing my position, as a simple syllogism so maybe you'll stay on topic:

    Premise one: Kamala's policy on Palestine (and pretty much every other policy) was better than Trump's.

    You've asserted without evidence that Kamala's policy is the same as Trump's. That is factually false. They may be close, but they are not the same. Even if Kamala lied about her policy and continued Biden's policy of providing unconditional resourcing, it is still better than Trump's policy of providing even more unconditional resources.

    Premise two: If one is presented with only two options, and one of those options will be selected no matter what, one should select the better option.

    You have not provided any refutation to this point whatsoever.

    Premise three: No one other than Kamala or Trump could have won the election

    You've also not refuted this in any way

    Conclusion: Because Kamala's policies made her the better option of the two options, and one of them would certainly become president, one should have voted for Kamala.

    Unless you are able to refute the accuracy of the premises or show that the conclusion does not follow from those premises, you have nothing to stand on.

    Whether or not you can "support this" is irrelevant. Whether or not it "crosses a line" is irrelevant. Voting is not endorsement, nor is it support of a candidate or all their positions. It is one of your few ways to peacefully influence the direction of the country. You want a viable party that is anti-genocide? Me too. That option didn't exist. Go run for office. Go make that party. In the meantime, stop rolling over for the fascists and letting them get their way.

  • Ah, you aren't even American and you are arguing American politics. No wonder you are full of shit. You don't have to face the consequences of a Trump presidency directly. No wonder you are so fucking privileged.

    Stop trying to influence American politics and stick to your own. I'm done with you, there's no point to this.

  • US Votes Against UN Resolution Calling for Gaza Ceasefire and Hostage Release
  • What does it mean to cross the line? Does it mean that you just give up and stop trying to use your vote to push the world toward the better future than the worse future? Then never.

    If I can choose between a better world or a worse world, I'll choose the better world every time. I won't sit on my hands while the fascists choose the worst one, and it's despicable that you did.

  • US Votes Against UN Resolution Calling for Gaza Ceasefire and Hostage Release
  • None of that changes the fact that you had a choice between one possible future and a worse possible future, and you opted not to choose and to allow the worse future to arrive.

    I'll make it simple for you by reframing my position, the position you were attempting to mock, as a simple syllogism:

    Premise one: Kamala's policy on Palestine (and pretty much every other policy) was better than Trump's.

    You've asserted without evidence that Kamala's stated policy is not true and that she would follow Biden's established policy of providing unconditionally continued resourcing. Even if that is true, it is still better than Trump's policy of providing even more unconditional resources.

    Premise two: If one is presented with only two options, and one of those options will be selected no matter what, one should select the better option.

    You have not provided any refutation to this point whatsoever.

    Premise three: No one other than Kamala or Trump could have won the election

    You've also not refuted this in any way

    Conclusion: Because Kamala's policies made her the better option of the two options, and one of them would certainly become president, one should have voted for Kamala.

    Unless you are able to refute the accuracy of the premises or show that the conclusion does not follow from those premises, you have nothing to stand on.

  • You are changing the subject instead of defending your position.

    Biden has nothing to do with it. He wasn't running for President.

    Kamala's position was to strive for a ceasefire, and Trump's position was to give Israel whatever they need to get the job done.

    By voting 3rd party, you've taken the position that these two options are identical in your eyes. Either Israel continues with likely similar reluctant support, or Israel continues with encouragement and unlimited support. Which do you think will lead to more Palestinian deaths?

    On top of this, this was Kamala's weakest policy, and she still clearly wins out. You are not only willing to throw the Palestinians under the bus, you're willing to throw trans people, women, and immigrants under the bus too. All of this so you can be on your high horse and pretend to be morally superior while enabling the worst future for everyone. Good job.

  • Right, so a genocide that kills 1 million Palestinians is the same as a genocide that kills 2 million Palestinians, for example?

    Just because two things share a characteristic, doesn't make them the same. One genocide can absolutely be worse than another. You are completely lacking nuance and reason.

  • US Votes Against UN Resolution Calling for Gaza Ceasefire and Hostage Release
  • Kamala was not insistent that Israel have free reign like Trump was. Kamala said that she wanted a cease fire, and Trump wanted Israel to finish the job. In the context of these two candidates, they are clearly not the same.

    Voting third party is not a "fuck you" to anyone. No one who matters gives a shit about a third party vote.

    A third party vote is a waste of a vote and no different from abstaining. A third party vote is simply shrugging in the face a fascism. Trump loves it, because it opened the way to his election.

  • US Votes Against UN Resolution Calling for Gaza Ceasefire and Hostage Release
  • Voting is not an endorsement. We had the choice between a candidate that was bad for Palestine, and a candidate that was even worse for Palestine.

    It's a pretty simple argument that someone who cares about Palestine should vote for the less bad candidate.

  • Why is that the Normies had shifted from "I have nothing to hide" to "Privacy is not real"???
  • Except that all of those produce HTML. They are all HTML websites.

    PHP stands for "PHP Hypertext Preprocessor" because it is a Preprocessor of HTML (HyperText Markup Language).

    If we are talking about browser performance, none of those technologies that you mentioned execute on the browser at all and are therefore irrelevant to Firefox's performance compared to another browser.

    From a browser's perspective, every website is HTML, CSS and JavaScript.

  • Any good alternative Facebook mobile clients out there?

    Tl;Dr FB sucks, looking for Android client to view friends/pages/groups posts only.

    I don't like Facebook, but my main hobby community exists almost exclusively there.

    I try to limit my usage to just within the bounds of my hobby, but it is difficult with all of the garbage FB tries to push in my face every time I look at it.

    I would love to have a different client for FB that just gives me content on people I'm friends with. No reels, no suggestions, no ads, just friends/pages/groups.

    I've seen that there are alternative FB clients for Android, but it's never clear if they offer something like what I want.

    Before I spend time evaluating various clients, does anyone already know of one that does what I want?
