  • Judge my shitty vibe code please

  • Thanks, your reply made my day after all the negative comments. I'm a home hobbyist with zero training, so a lot of this stuff is jibberish to me still. Looks like we have a lot of the same stuff going on, I just needed a sanity check. Anyway, I went ahead and deployed it a few days ago and it seems to be very functional and snappy so I guess if it works it works?

  • Can I dual boot windows and Linux?

    Jump

  • You're right that Windows SHOULDN'T touch other OSes, but I've personally had windows update nuke my grub partition, like last year on an i5 11th gen laptop. Dual booting on the same drive? Don't do it!

  • EU Parliament votes to restrict 'steak' and 'burger' labels to meat only

    Jump

  • Its not always clearly labeled tho. Last year my brother took me to a burger joint in Minneapolis and only after I thought the burger tasted very weird did I learn that it was an all vegan burger joint. Not complaining, but it should be clearly labeled what youre getting, IMO.

  • Tools to migrate from Plex to Jellyfin?

    Jump

  • I think you're looking for https://github.com/arabcoders/watchstate Watchstate will pull from Plex and migrate it into a Jellyfin instance. Emby is also supported. Works with multiple users as well, just do yourself a favor and make sure all usernames match up!!!

  • I Just Got a Full Blown Ad for Chumba Casino..... EDIT: In Plex Streaming, but didn't realize it.

  • Devil's Advocate is free on Plex on demand, which is ad supported. Somehow you played that version and not your local one.

  • Xbox Controller Connection Issues

    Jump

  • I had this exact issue, Xbox controller needs a firmware update. Unfortunately the only way I know how to do that is via windows and the god awful Xbox app. Hope this helps!

  • Dutch & French police take down Matrix encrypted chat app; 2.3 million messages captured

  • ANOM was also covered in a recent episode of the podcast Darknet Diaries!

  • What is your favorite Fediverse platform?

    Jump

  • I looked thru this blog hopeful that there would be protection against mod abuse. Instead you can get banned for downvoting? I don't want to be looking over my back because some dipshit mod had a bad take. This is generating way too much analytical data on users. Communities don't need empowered super mods treating users like numbers on a spreadsheet. Lemmy for sure has problems (ml) but this isn't the answer.

  • If you need a stargate, there is one outside of Ashland, Ohio off of I-71.

    1. There is no batch delete function. However, if you delete the channel and there are no users inside, the channel will be auto deleted from all records after a week or so. At least for Matrix.org channels.

  • I agree, the security key thing is a bit of an issue. However this might a bit of a user error as well. The thing to understand is that Encryption keys are not stored on Matrix.org. If they were, then Matrix.org (or whatever homeserver you're using) would be able to decrypt everything you can decrypt, thus making Matrix pretty useless. The solution is that keys are only stored locally on your devices. Keys are shared to other devices using the Verification process and Emoji matching thing. The problem is most users just go "Whatever!" And ignore the verification process and then have a bad experience because they don't have Encryption keys.

  • I moved a big group off Discord last year to Matrix chat (Element). It's been largely pretty alright. 100mb upload limit, we have a bot that downloads tiktoks/Instagram/reddit videos and uploads them to the channel so you never have to visit the sites. Pretty nice! Open source and federated, you guys should give it a try!

  • Watching ml and world argue in every thread be like.

  • Pleasently surprised to see Bakunins name dropped! Since there seems to be some misconceptions in this thread about what Anarchy actually is, I thought I'd share one of his quotes that has stuck with me through the years:

    Freedom without socialism is privilege and injustice; socialism without freedom is slavery and brutality

  • Recovering Arch user here. I really like Bazzite!

  • Man Arrested for Creating Child Porn Using AI

  • Pedophiles need help, counseling and therapy. Not images that enable something I think is not acceptable in society.

    I mean 30-40 years ago you could replace the word pedophile with homosexual and a vast majority of people would agree. I'm not defending pedophilia here but it's important to remember these people are born the way they are. Nothing is going to change that, new pedophiles are born every day. They will never go away. The same way you can't change gay or transgender people. Repressing sexual desire never works look at the priests in the Catholic Church. A healthy outlet such as AI generated porn could save a lot of actual children from harm. I think that should be looked into.
