To anyone who thinks they know JS well and that its quirkiness is not a problem, let me know how you do on these quizzes:


no transcoding quality loss
is jellyfin actually transcoding when people don’t want it to?!
otherwise, “no transcoding” doesn’t sound like a feature. transcoding is very useful when you actually need it, eg watching something remotely which is stored at a higher bitrate than your network connection can stream. one way to do it with mpv is ffmpegfs, btw.
(fellow mpv user here; i’ve only used other people’s jellyfin instances… but i’d be very surprised if they’re always unnecessarily transcoding everything they watch.)


is this post perhaps related to the disclaimer i added to this meme 20 minutes earlier? 👀


Don’t do this stupid shit. Advocating for violence like this
I’m curious, did you read about Don Chafin before posting this comment?
check out the song too: Hang Don Chafin

I have to ask: what’s with all the obsession with immutable distro?
I guess the promise of having updates JustWork™? I don’t currently use one but I see the appeal.
However FWIW, unlike its namesake ChromeOS, the “Nixbook OS” this post is about is not actually an immutable distro: the instructions are to install NixOS normally and then clone the nixbook repo into /etc/nixbook and run its install.sh. Among other things it installs an update service which runs git pull on that repo as well as running nixos-rebuild boot --upgrade and flatpak update --noninteractive --assumeyes etc.
Cheers to this guy for what he’s doing, but the name is a little confusing. This approach works but it is not nearly as robust as the immutable distro paradigm implied by the name.

This thread right here, officer
because they said cis?


i checked their website to see if these are real; disappointingly they are not. they do actually have a “conductor’s coal” scent, though.


Fridge Magnets have a practical use
why do you think it’s a magnet? it looks like a sticker.


Important context!
They had to change this because newer laws like the CCPA classify some ways of transferring/processing data as a “sale”, even if no money is exchanged.
What? No. Do you really think their “sharing” with “partners” who are “providing sponsored suggestions” doesn’t involve money being exchanged? 🤔
Here is an abridged version of that FAQ entry consisting only of substrings of it:
The reason we’ve stepped away from making blanket claims that “We never sell your data” is because […] to make Firefox commercially viable […] we collect and share some data with our partners, including our optional ads on New Tab and providing sponsored suggestions in the search bar
All of the other words in there implying that they had to stop promising not to sell user data because of some (implied to be unreasonable) “LEGAL definition” of “sale” is imo insulting to the reader.


it works for me. did you forget to pay your git bill?
