They don’t care. They know they’ll lose subscribers but they’ll make more money overall on the suckers that stick out the monopoly pricing. Same thing is happening in the auto industry where they sell less cars but are more profitable.

If I’m spending money, it is on a Usenet provider and nbz indexer.

Hmm, if it gives you a local M3U list, I bet it would run in Jellyfin too.

The US.

Getting the message, “It seems that the key in your URL is incorrect. Please, verify your URL.” Got it now.

The nature of uploads/downloads happening with torrents coming and going from disparate sources. Apparently it has a certain network signature that can be identified fairly reliably. ISPs don’t really give a shit about WHAT you torrent, but they will try to traffic shape it so it doesn’t affect other users on the ISP much.

Do your ISP a favor and use a VPN when torrenting. They will know you’re torrenting based on traffic patterns, but they won’t know what you’re torrenting. That way they don’t have to serve you a notice or kick you off their service at the behest of movie or music studios. Your ISP may not care what you’re doing, but those businesses do, and the law is on their side.

VPN makes it extremely difficult for your ISP to spy on you, which is the whole point.

I wouldn’t even go that far. Boot to a live USB of a distro you want to try.

TV streaming STARTED fragmented. Just it was all bundled together in a cable subscription. The (ineffective) moderator in that were the cable companies like Comcast, who were always trying to negotiate the price of a channel down. Suddenly with streaming, you could start your own service and getting dropped by someone like Comcast wasn’t the death sentence it used to be. The TV content creators are dealing with the end user for the first time.

The music industry long ago learned they get better sales when all their vynal/cassettes/CDs are available at Kmart/Walmart/Best Buy/etc. The music industry DID fragment a bit with online streaming, but those quickly failed. And the artists soon realized that being cool and exclusive to iTunes lead to less money for them.

Problem is, we’ll be getting even worse spyware with the backing of the Chinese government.

I had to support HP Personal Page back in the day. HP can’t write software.

While good in the way you outline, you are underestimating HP’s fuckwhittery.

The heady days of using Copy-b and Copy-c in the Commodore 64 days. Back when floppies were really floppies.

Pretty much, yeah. Only thing not 100% yet are some of the more obscure peripherals. Example: Eye and head tracking. While sticks can and do work in Linux, it would be nice if VKB, Virpil, etc had native Linux calibration tools.

Are your stations actually encrypted? Because mine were working fine until recently as many stations encrypted as the NFL playoffs started.

Or maybe you’re just s-p-e-c-i-a-l!

Meh, my Plex server is slowly failing anyway because it’s on 17 y/o hardware.

How do you manually upgrade to the beta?

Except that’s not the experience everyone has. HDHR isn’t getting keys, because the networks don’t allow it for the HDHR devices.

Plex doesn’t support ATSC 3.0 yet, specifically the audio. So it can’t play ATSC 3.0 broadcasts.

It’s usable until your local stations decide to encrypt. Then HDHomerun will not work.
