Intensity huh? Here you go

@#$% YOU

I was quoting them but you’re right-or Fdroid ofc

Thanks. Remember to always question everything. Especially when that -something- sounds like BS.

Interesting, especially with GrapheneOS people shooting it down immediately to call them out on their baloney.

Was curious so Iooked up the app’s site.

Apparently the devs claim they can’t release it on Android because “There’s no way to be anonymous on the play store”, but it’s even more impossible to be anonymous on the platform they’ve released. That’s how you know the developer is incredibly stupid and/or shady as hell- because they’ve never even heard of Fdroid?

Makes me think the app is a troll/trojan horse (not as in infection, trojan horse as in it has alterior motives)

The Drumpf crew “losing it” over the app just makes it more questionable. They love to create a firestorm so people talk about the thing “they definitely don’t want you to use!!” to get people to do things…

Neat

Got the prompt earlier this week. Haven’t seen any noticeable increase in its DNS requests, but it’s not impossible that the hostnames it’s reaching out to just aren’t in my MANY block lists.
271 blocks today and all the same old- analytics.plex.tv.

Good to know. When I get this prompt at home I’ll be watching my Pihole server quite closely for a while to see for sure.

I don’t disagree at all, but morally and legally speaking if “no” means “no”, I don’t actually see anything wrong with the prompt or the idea itself. If no means “later” or “limit this data”, or even “anonymize this data”, it’s time to revolt.

I agree Jellyfin’s pretty rad and DOES prove what can be done for free, I’ve used both and Plex is a much more “set and forget” and I personally have had more issues with streams breaking/stopping for no reason with Jellyfin- are those probably my fault? Yep, probably borked a setting or misconfigured it- just saying that’s my personal experience.

I’m just one idiot making noises with my meat flaps. I’m no authority.

If we find out “I do not consent” opts out, I’m fine with it. If we find out “I do not consent” leads to a “Close our account” page, it’s time for pitchforks, especially since they recently had a huge sale on lifetime memberships.

HELllllo everybody and welcome back to the BrightWorks

Love that guy

Glad you like it, not sure it’s a fit for my lazy living room machine though.

But there’s no memes out there!?

No worries, their machines rule, I have a bd790i motherboard!

Cool!

dynebolic

Ooh neat there’s one I’ve never heard of

LOVE Minisforum- but I’m looking for an interesting distro, not interesting hardware to run it on. :)

I’m a Plex guy so that part is appealing but I admit I mostly watch youtube in this scenario

Nix looks like a fun way to wild away 3 weeks, not entirely sure this is what I’m after for a living room TV box. :D
