Yeah, that’s some clickbaity shit there lol. What a dumb headline for them to use.

With a nice, big disclaimer.

GURU bills itself as an official repository that’s user-maintained. AUR makes no claims of being official as far as I can see from their website.

Oh yeah that’s what I’m using. Thanks though!

In my case you can unironically blame Valve. I wanted an Arch-based distro to stay as close to SteamOS as possible but I have an nvidia GPU for the foreseeable future (unless I win the lottery or something).

Arch USER Repository. Use the official repositories if it’s a concern.

It’s definitely because of Louis. He’s been doing a lot of work in the right to repair field, as well as this whole fuckin fiasco that Bambu (the 3d printer company) got themselves into by violating the LGPL license with some software. Streisand’d themselves good on that one.

Ironically, this kind of response is exactly what I’m talking about.

At this point if I were to switch from Plex I would go with Emby just because a bunch of sweaty nerds don’t simp over it every time Plex comes up in the news.

Weren’t the Borg originally meant to be those worm-parasite things?

have to open it in a new tab to see it more clearly idk why.

The extent of the setup for Plex is to log in with your email and password, pick which shared libraries you want to be pinned to your home screen, and then browse. My parents in their 70s were able to figure it out and all I had to do from my end was grant them access to the libraries I wanted to share with a simple check box.

This.

Securely sharing is simpler on Plex. I can invite anyone with just an email and they have near instant access to an HTTPS encrypted service. I don’t have to deal with setting up a VPN, reverse proxy or ACLs (in the case of something like Tailscale).

lmfao the cops charged him for not having a valid boat registration or life vests. amazing.

Because if I’m watching locally I dont need them, and if I’m watching remotely Plex already offers secure remote viewing 'out of the box`. They give every user an SSL certificate and a public accessible URL at app.plex.tv. They also handle secure user authentication. The new price is stupid, but Jellyfin is not a 1:1 replacement.

A gentle reminder that Jellyin more or less requires you to set up a reverse proxy and a secure VPN to use it outside of your home.

Right. By their argument it seems like China can get fucked because what are they gonna do, kidnap him and bring him to China to face charges?

Right, and this is just waking to run updates or whatever. Imagine what running a local LLM in the same conditions might do.

best case scenario you spew a bunch of toxic shit into the already stressed atmosphere.
