  • Report: Apple CEO “cares about nothing else” Than Building Breakout AR Glasses Before Meta

    Jump

  • I think the fundamental problem with the AR glasses is something that can't be overcome.

    I think its easy to see the utility to owning a pair of glasses that look good and provide real time information as desired for what you are looking at or hearing.

    HOWEVER, I think very few people will want the product these co.panies will make. This will be a method to throw ads literally in front of your eyeballs. Enshitification is too big of a thing now and so any new product is tainted by the expectation it will rapidly turn to garbage at a high price to you.

    Also, while we may think we can be trusted, we dont trust anyone else having all that info, I dont like the obvious privacy implications that these can present. Filming with them is also terrifying.

    Why do you think JD Vance killed the Pope?

    Jump

  • He's both a subordinate of the Anti-Christ and Russian asset. He was called upon to kill the pope to initiate the Pope election process that they can manipulate in order to get a more "pro-apocalypse" Pope in place.

  • Mike Johnson says men need to stop ‘playing video games all day’ and get to work: ‘They’re draining resources’

    Jump

  • Well since its always projection with these losers, I wonder what he's been playing lately that he feels so guilty about.

  • Plex is locking remote streaming behind a subscription in April

  • It was significantly harder to set up remote access for Jellyfin than Plex 6 months ago. I ha ent attempted since. With Plex there was literally no set up, it just works. Until it just works without having to do any extra work, Jellyfin will struggle with adoption.

    I have both running, and thatd a big difference to me. Also I prefer the way Plex detects intros and credits for skipping and their detection for captions. Once that's all sorted Jellyfin wins in every field.

  • I do this too but it only works on my home network not remotely.

  • With the caviat that you have tailscale enabled on both devices. This prevents it from being used on a roku outside your home but you could access it remotely from your computer/phone/tablet.

    It is significantly harder than Plex, currently. There are improvements happening all the time though.

  • What would you say is the most unsung "plot hole" in Harry Potter?

    Jump

  • I actually never got the impression he was rich from the movies. All Hagrid really says is "You dinne think they'd leave ya with nothing?" And they show a pile of coins.

    To a child with almost nothing but some school expenses who lived on handmedowns, he might feel rich but he didn't rush out and replace his broom himself when it broke each time.

    His parents also weren't old or particularly famous outside their role in Voldy's death, so I don't know where the richest could have come from outside his Father's family.

  • Total sense

    Jump

  • They don't unless you have a good contract with them and even then it's dependent on zones and package size.

    Fun fact: USPS acknowledges that our US territories are domestic while UPS and FedEx treat them as international. So its a little more of a chore and cost to ship to Puerto Rico and the like through anyone but USPS from the 50 states.

  • Total sense

    Jump

  • It isn't really.

  • Total sense

    Jump

  • We don't, unless it's alot of food. So much food in fact that the equivalent sized package would cost more than $10.50 for USPS to take 3+ days to deliver.

    I love USPS but this whole thread makes people look like they've been huffing markers all afternoon.

  • Total sense

    Jump

  • Not just same day, same hour. That 1/3 cost comes with a 50x delay.

  • You know what... that math checks out. Approved!

  • Tencent says it's not a Chinese military company and is willing to sue the US Department of Defense if it isn't removed from a blacklist

    Jump

  • Oh then read the Wikipedia page you referenced. It actually gives examples supporting my statement.

    And once again, I am not saying it isn't racist today or that people weren't racist back then or that the word is OK today or any of the other weird things people keep acting like I said.

    I lost my patience with people being willfully ignorant a while ago. I just thought it was an interesting moment in time to see how language evolved. Not terribly dissimilar to many other terms people used to use that later morphed into slurs.

    Jump

  • I'm not either. But there's a difference between isn't and wasn't. But again, you don't care. I'm still not defending racism or racists or racists using the term as a slur later. Ive been super clear. I was just providing historical context.

  • "at the world's inception" should have clued you in on the jest...

    Jump

  • I just disagree. We are equally dense at worst. I've already expressed people were racist and had slurs that they used. Im not ignoring that or unaware of it or trying to gloss over that. This just wasn't one of them for a long stretch of time.

    You won't believe it because you just don't believe it. That's you being dense. You refuse to accept the reality I've witnessed. Terms weren't used with equal intent globally throughout history. How a term was used in Caldwell Idaho in 1930 is not how it was used in Pennsylvania at the same time, despite them both being America and the people involved all being American.
