I rolled back. It was fairly easy and now the downloads work again.

A lot of the angst about the server requirements for Plex pass really have to stretch the truth to become a victim. It only affects you if you were using it for free, in which case 🤷, it was free, it’s hard to feel bad about it.

The only thing I’m disappointed in is the free mobile streaming comes at the same time they released the new broken app. When they get around to fixing the app I’ll be able to tell my friends they can now use the app. The server owner paying once is much better than every person paying for the app.

It’s inappropriate because you’re not allowed to review your own companies software, let alone do so without declaring as such.

If he was forthcoming in his review, it would have been to obvious that it’s a breach of the ToS. Workers are not permitted to review apps made by their own company.

This is 100% a shady review.

I think by the time we reach some future extreme of data density, it will be in a method of storage beyond our current understanding. It will be measured in coordinates or atoms or fractions of a dimension that we nullify.

Was that a ccna certification? I’ve heard they are quite strict on home exam conditions

They are providing extra service. Using Plex on mobile is now free for everyone, which is a huge step forward. It’s not a bad trade off for server owners to require Plex pass for remote viewing (which is only necessary if you’re not using a VPN like tailscale for free remote viewing).

I don’t get why people are freaking out over a one off fee to unlock something that has running costs for Plex, which itself isn’t necessary if you just opt for a free VPN client like tailscale.

OP couldn’t comprehend an email, and when everyone tried to reassure them that nothing for them has changed they doubled down. The closest thing to justification I can figure is “all my clients are borderline illiterate as well and it upset them”.

How in the world could you be upset that a product you already paid for is not providing that specific feature for free anymore. They’ve even made the phone software free!

How many people with a folder full of media also know how to safety expose a home server to the internet? It would be less than 1%.

Meanwhile, you don’t need network engineer levels of knowledge to run Plex for remote access. You download the software, choose the folder, and send your friends a share link.

Isn’t it amazing how birds reverse engineered airplanes?

“stop depicting blobfish like this, and blobfish isn’t what it’s called”

That specific one, as depicted, is blobfish. Blobfish is not a species, it’s an individual. Like Greenboots.

What’s the ffxiv reference here?

Anubis is from Egyptian mythology.

Let’s get. Together. Katamari on the funk

Lol

“The best way to run arch is to have a second non-arch computer at all times”

I think that sums it up

This is framed like 80 generations is a small number, but that’s huge. Culture and civilization moves so quickly that even 3 generations ago life is barely recognisable. I can’t even imagine what life was like 40 generations ago.

Oh right, the “hit by a truck” cliche.

I’ve personally made sausages. They aren’t some mystery meat that verges on bio-waste, despite that being the urban legend.

I don’t think any of the article’s examples are bold or shocking. I think the path to less meat in the diet is quality meals that don’t have to come with the “this is almost as good a meat” sales pitch.

Please quit with this tax write off misinformation.

They cut their losses. We don’t know the details why, but for some reason they decided it would cost too much in money or reputation to continue with marketing and release.

Not everything is a billionaire conspiracy. Sometimes they just realise they made a film too shit to release, or some person in a suit just wanted to spite someone.

Drag am using it?
