I’ll switch to jellyfin as soon as it works nearly as well.

But for the moment it’s missing a lot of features compared to Plex.

You’re gonna need a lot more than 2!

I like this. Let’s do it.

Now, guess which of those two vehicles is regularly used for anything that actually requires a truck bed vs which of those is used to pick up kids from school.

This all sounds mostly right to me. But the regulations aren’t pointless, they’re just incomplete. I’m still quite happy that we have these protections.

And also, you tend to only get regulations on issues after they’ve proven to be a problem. It’s like warning labels, if you see a label that says “don’t put your hand here” it may be because someone did once, and it was bad.

So with that in mind, there hasn’t previously been any need for regulations on door handles that don’t work without power, because it’s never been an issue before. Now that we see a need for that kind of regulation, we may see it go onto the books. Now it’s true that we shouldn’t have to spell that kind of thing out in legislation, but (and I can’t stress this enough) people can be very dumb…

I just looked up jfa-go, I’m not at all opposed to trying things if they’ll work.

It seems like jfa-go is a user account management system, which is indeed super useful. But it doesn’t handle the remote content part. I’m still not going to create a VPN to share content.

That depends, is there anything that isn’t a roguelike?

I’m pretty sure all applications are technically “roguelike” now. Hades (roguelike), FTL (roguelike), Dirt Rally (roguelike), card games (all roguelike), MS office 365 (roguelike), Android accessibility config pane (roguelike).

There was only one matrix film, that’s why it was called The Matrix

Yeah, that’s pretty dumb.

Were I a nefarious scheming hacker, I wouldn’t pay shit for that.

All your base are belong to us.

Make your time…

Meh, seems like a sensible take. Certainly better for your mental health.

Communities matter. There’s a reason I’m not on X, there’s a reason I don’t play pubg or overwatch, toxic communities can seriously make any experience suck.

It’s plain deceitful to say jellyfin is simply better. It’s simply less capable and less supported. I don’t know if you’re trying to deceive others or just yourself.

Here’s the difference: With Plex it’s trivial to invite other people to watch content from your server, they can view it on just about any device they have and it doesn’t take any complicated networking setup to achieve. Likewise, just as you share your server, you can view content from other people’s servers through the same interface. This is not a small feature it’s the primary feature of Plex, it’s what sets it apart from xbmc or any media center software.

I am totally on board with FOSS and I would absolutely use jellyfin in a second if it could do the things that Plex does. But it can’t.

As a side note, this new interface for Plex on mobile is absolute shit, a big step backwards. If I had my way I’d still be using the Plex app from 2016.

The real problem with Plex is that it’s a whole package, server and client. If it were instead a server and an open protocol, that anyone could make a client for, that would be vastly superior. I desperately want to use a more customizable 3rd party client with my Plex server.

I mean… Cyberpunk needs to be on a physical card. Otherwise how would you slot it into your neck?

Yeah, that’s also not great optics…

OK, but being very massive is not the same as what was being discussed.

Are you sure? I mean the word “heavy” was what I was going on, but there is a distinction I suppose.

You can also “lift” a finitely massive black hole with anything else massive.

Yeah, that’s true… But again, I do have to stress that there is no alternative to “finitely massive” you really can’t have an object of infinite mass in our universe.

Well I don’t know about any objects more massive than black holes. I think a black hole is really the only viable form a body can take once there’s enough matter in one place, like there’s an upper limit for the size of stars and after that anything larger collapses into a black hole.

An object of infinite mass is a contradiction, a universe can’t exist with a single object of infinite mass, it would consume everything instantly.

Ok, I think we’re on the same page here. But I’m still not sure about one of your previous comments, you suggested that this “heaviest object” can’t move because it would be the logical reference to which any other body is measured.

But I want to think about that a bit. Let’s say this heaviest object (HO) has something orbiting it and we’re looking at it from earth with a telescope. As the smaller body orbits, we would probably see this HO wobble, right? Meaning that even if it’s the most massive thing around, it’s still affected by other objects, it can be moved.

You need to be thinking about n-body physics though, everything affects everything. If the earth moves, that moves the sun a little, if the sun moves, that moves the local cluster a little, etc. Why wouldn’t that affect this heaviest object?

I mean, are you suggesting that this heaviest object is simply the center of the universe and that all coordinates are defined around it? Because while that seems practical, I don’t think it’s how matter and space interact.

When you jump you are pushing the earth away from yourself a little bit, and then some of your gravity pulls the earth back toward you. You have moved the earth, and for a brief moment your jump has in fact altered Earth’s orbit.

I think if God creates a rock so heavy he can’t lift it, it’s probably a black hole. By definition we can’t know what happens inside a black hole, because no information escapes the event horizon. As it’s now consistent with known physics that we can’t know many aspects of this interaction between God and the black hole, I think this paradox is basically solved. We don’t know any more about the interaction, but it’s no longer a paradox, it’s consistent with physics.
