Is there a way we can help? E.g torrent seeding of the content?

It’s probably more related to you maintaining both side by side (for sure they have incompatibilities) rather than jellyfin. I have absolutely none of the issues you have.

From this thread it seems Plex has astroturfing capabilities

Valetudo, though an absolutely amazing software, is no the replacement I was meaning. I meant we need a fully open source robot, from software to hardware, and that can be adapted. Of course there’s always blobs which are not open source, but that’s the case already for many things

Clarify where I did goal post moving

for war and extreme remote areas, everything else is already solved.

Yes and if you read carefully my answers you’ll see that my arguments were all related to this, not the “normal case”

We need open source alternatives

Oh I’m all for Musk to eat shit. I was arguing that satellites are better, not starlink in particular. Lemmy seems to have issues separating their (valid) hate for muskrat with some of his companies or related technologies. And OP was arguing that cell towers are an improvement over satellites? Wth

Why can’t we have a publicly funded satellite constellation?

Yes and we can also use a solution which requires absolutely no cables and digging at all, and that doesn’t disrupt any natural environments and occupies land.

And yes I’m aware of the impact satellites have on the atmosphere. There’s no free lunch.

And wires are not bound by physics? To run cables over such long distances you have to boost the signal at periodic distances to avoid voltage drops and noise

Satellites are not there for speed, but breadth

Spoken like a true spoiled city person Good luck getting the necessary infrastructure built (cables, towers, et al) to really remote places. It’s probably more expensive in the long run than having a satellite constellation.

This exactly. I always wanted to contribute to the kernel but after being a c++ dev for so many years I absolutely don’t want to do C, and rust would allow me to have fun doing kernel hacking

The good thing about science is that it doesn’t care if you disagree, it just works the way it does

Really? His argument seems really level headed and just presenting data, instead of the one on the meme.

W.r.t Pluto then you’re no better than those people denying science. The golf of Mexico’s renaming is due to ego and politics, Pluto’s classification is not

It’s the perfect match and balance between engineering, creativity and fast iteration

• IT reconversions are bullshit and dangerous to the industry. Everyone and their grandma are becoming “programmers”. We’re in the “fuck around” phase, the “find out” will be explosive. Companies are inundating themselves with these “reconverted” juniors and doing soft-layoffs to seniors…

• crypto, Blockchain and AI are just bs to make a quick buck out of investors. They are truly disastrous to the environment

• If you use chatgpt et al. I’ll look down on you from a technical competence level

• marketing and middle management are mostly useless. A good, and small, sales+marketing team is very effective but the moment they start growing they start to degenerate pretty fast into BS world and imposing company culture

The issue is not agreeing, but behaving like an immature prick when arguing
