Wow, I’ve managed a handful of Debian or Ubuntu servers and used it personally for over 15 years. It has been super stable but I have seen a number of errors running updates, usually it’s some obscure config I forgot to update at some point or a removed package file. This is an entirely new one to me.

I kind of understand why someone would honestly. Jellyfin subtitles are still a hot mess for a lot of formats unfortunately. Also, while plex has tried really hard to ruin their UI, I’ve still had more trouble explaining where to find things in Jellyfin. And if you’re sharing your collection with friends or family members there’s a lot more technical stuff involved.

So I can see why the balance might still tip toward paying plex still for some people.

Luckily I bought a lifetime license ages ago before the first price hike so this doesn’t affect me yet. So I’m just riding out the decline, running them in parallel until plex completely breaks. slowly transitioning the family as they get annoyed with broken features. Plexamp is quickly taking care of that 😅

Also schools. My kids state issued laptops use vpns to connect to the schools networks as well as in a true irony limit what sites they can access.

It’s actually so limiting it’s nearly impossible to print the required assignments on a printer in our home but that’s a different rant.

I think your confusion is the other side of what the article was discussing.

The problem is, there have been a lot of number systems in the past. The one we currently use is based on the Arabic system. In common usage you would simply call them numbers. But in a technical sense, to distinguish from other numbering systems past and present, they’re also called Arabic Numerals because that’s their origin.

Clearly this ignores the fact Arabic is still around and using real Arabic numbers and that is both confusing and maybe problematic. But I think the technical reason it sticks around is to acknowledge their source and have a more specific term when there is a need

And thank God it can do that too because “copilot build my project” saves me the intense labor and frustration of hitting F7 on my keyboard

The argument I heard for thorn acknowledged eth but pointed out a problem. In English our letters correspond to rough shapes of sounds. They often get moved around and changed by dialects. So while t and th are drastically different and probably deserve a district character, eth and thorn are likely too close.

Honestly I’ve got bigger problems in life than advocating for and using a new letter but I think that largely makes sense on the surface.

Thank you. The amount of JPEG I couldn’t see they are legos and didn’t get it the actual joke.

I use Archer Linux BTW.

Because the deal is probably not about graphics. As with everything these days, it’s AI. We’ll be seeing the announcement of the nvidia powered Intel AI CPUs soon.

In that context Intel’s GPU is a complimentary video provider to NVIDIAsAI GPU chiplets.

How long that lasts…

Dang as soon as you said globbing I realized what had happened but didn’t see it right away either

Pretty sure the suggested usage of OBS is to use your GPU for hardware encoding video so not sure what the difference you’re describing is.

Looks like the unnecessary inventions guy.

I’ve got great people skills, no problem.

Now this is a pretty simple problem to fix. First open your IDE, and we’ll need to create a quick node project with a couple dependencies. You don’t know what an IDE is… Can you open a pull req… No, don’t know what that is either. ok sure but this is entry level… Right ok well maybe we can find a way to do this in an online REPL… click beep beep hello? No? Ok guess they figured it out. Job well done. Ticket closed.

Man probably needed to eat. What a system we’ve got.

That’s a more recent flare up but DHH has been “ruffling feathers” for a while to put it politely. https://tomstu.art/the-dhh-problem

Yeah, I don’t think that’s what the screenshot shows though since there’s no content at all 😅

It doesn’t have to not include JavaScript, that would be quite difficult and unreasonable. Accessible sites are not about limiting functionality but providing the same functionality.

I haven’t gone fully down the rabbit hole on this but my understanding is even something like Nuxt if you follow best practices will deliver HTML that can be interacted with and serve individual pages.

That said, screen readers and other support shouldn’t require running without any JavaScript. Having used them to test sites that might be the smart approach but they actually have a lot of tools for announcing dynamic website changes that are built into ARIA properties at the HTML level so very flexible. There are of course also JavaScript APIs for announcing changes.

They just require additional effort and forethought to implement and can be buggy if you do really weird things.

Also the EU and technically a lot of US sites that provide services to or for the government have similar requirements. The latter is largely unenforced though unless you’re interacting with states that also have accessibility laws.

And honestly a ton of sites that should be covered by these requirements just don’t care or get rubber stamped as compliant. Because unless someone actually complains they don’t have a reason to care.

I kind of thought the EU requirements that have some actual penalties would change this indifference but other than some busy accessibility groups helping people that already care, I haven’t heard a lot about enforcement that would suggest it’s actually changed.

As someone that spent a lot of years sitting next to an IT help desk, I’m not sure any chipsets work well at all. A lot of times you just have to figure out what makes them happy and get used to it.

I’d hear things like “as long as I don’t close my laptop after I undock, i don’t have to reboot to fix the wifi” as the person waddled across the office propping their laptop open. And these were high end windows laptops.
