No, usually this is done behind closed doors and away from the press.

The suddenness of the firing, and the bridge-burning language (basically "he lied to us") rather than any sort of soft exit, suggests that it must be something in the "other" bucket. The details are anyone's guess.

The anti-snitching culture within this community seems to rival that of even the mafia. Perhaps that's why it's been called "the gay mafia" in the past...

CNLohr made a similar project three years before that: https://youtube.com/watch?v=aqqEYz38ens I know this stuff is dystopic, but I personally find it really cool. That said, I also disable WiFi and prefer ethernet wherever

Yeah, rather than take a reputational hit, they've now got a reputation for paying ransoms to hackers. They will now be targeted by more hackers wanting ransoms.

It seems like the only post on here is a link to this post on HN. Well played, I suppose.... this is indeed recursive.

(I once saw a Google result for Stackoverflow that included a username in it. I never saw it again or investigated it further, though.) I don't know what's going on with archive.is, but that service has always struck me as sketchy

Yeah, I've heard of it and it looks great. But it also means I need to maintain a media server (which costs me time and money, and is also a potential liability in terms of copyright mafia and script kiddies who find a vulnerability in

When I used a Chromecast, I was fond of an even more direct method. On my laptop I ran a Node CLI called "peercast" [0] with a single argument (a magnet link), and it streamed a video file while downloading its torrent, and since

Apparently the overarching goal of Jellyfin is to always be able to "direct play" (no transcoding), but whether or not that's possible depends on each file and the client device. They have a comprehensive table of which forma

by TechBro8615 3y ago
I'm not certain, but I think it will avoid transcoding for certain "Web-native" formats that your client device can already play. For example, if you download an mp4 then you should be able to watch it on your iPhone without

I run it on my laptop, and when I want to watch a new episode of a TV show, or a movie, I search for it on 1337x.to, find the mp4 with the most seeders, copy the magnet link, paste it into Transmission and then press enter. Within half an h

Alternatively: don't have Plex accounts in the first place. Distribute the software in such a way that it can be deployed silently and independently of any connection to the company that creates it. (In ancient times, this was actually

If you're pirating content, you should retain complete control and security over your setup. How does Infuse enforce its yearly license cost? There must be some telemetry at the very least, which is exactly the issue that got Plex into

They didn't walk away from it. They were blocked from making the acquisition.

I've never understood why Plex phones home or why Plex the company has any insight at all into what's running on your Plex installation. I was never able to look past that, so I never installed it. After years without a media serv

Oh my bad, you're right. I was thinking of WebM, which iOS Safari does not support. https://caniuse.com/webm

Maybe an iOS issue? I know Safari doesn't support WebP, so if Messenger is using a WebView on iOS then maybe that's why.

Until recently (when apt-key was deprecated), this has been a large security hole (and it will continue to be as long as apt-key is still used). Basically unless a repository in your sources.list includes a signed-by attribute referencing a

In some sense maybe that's for the best, since it means they won't bring any pre-existing biases or misunderstandings into their interpretation of fairness. It's up to the lawyers on each side to present their case starting f

I wonder if there are methods that could take advantage of natural movements throughout the day, where your body naturally emulates what the cuff forces it to do. For example, when you transition suddenly from sitting to standing, is it pos

Personally, the worst impact of "bringing my work home with me" has been when I'm spending time adjacent to infosec or pentesting. That's a discipline that requires cynicism (engineers are incompetent, can't protect

This is a really cool idea. I love the simplicity of annotating cells and "compiling" a serverless HTTP application. In fact this idea of "compiling" the app might be the real novelty here. I suspect the adoption of the
