2000 Websites? WTF why?

Just to add insult to injury: once she starts working, even if she never returns to the US… She will be required to file taxes.

So assuming you are traveling, what do you bring with you if it isn’t a mobile streaming device, a laptop, or a mobile device that you are going to stream to?

You saying you wouldn’t have those things away from home? Or a firestick.

Tailscale makes this easy if you are the only user.

“install this app on your tv and log in”, which is exactly what Plex does

Yes, but that person has to create an account. Everyone has to create an account. With Plex. Some people I know immediately say no, others are annoyed that plex would try and shake them down for money.

If you configure Jellyfin, all that goes away. THEN they can simply download the app and login.

I got concerned when people started buying Plex hats. And being excited about that purchase.

I noticed that Logo on Hats people who are willing to pay for them is often a bit concerning.

“You lefties”. Thanks for letting me know you have an agenda and are ignorant.

And since you keep bringing it up, what is the history of the kill the white man song, why is it important, and how does it relate today? You keep saying it, so back it up big guy.

I get where you are coming from, but I wanted to put that out there. Not for the person I was calling bullshit on, but for everyone else reading this.

You are right though. The only way to get through to anyone is to get them to prove their point of view. Proofs just make them argue in new ways and never learn anything.

I guess I will leave this up as it is done already, but take what you said into consideration for the future.

Ok so here are the rules:

(a) where the land is not being used and the owner’s main purpose is not to develop the land or use it to generate income, but to benefit from appreciation of its market value;

(b) where an organ of state holds land that it is not using for its core functions and is not reasonably likely to require the land for its future activities in that regard, and the organ of state acquired the land for no consideration;

© notwithstanding registration of ownership in terms of the Deeds Registries Act, 1937 (Act No. 47 of 1937), where an owner has abandoned the land by failing to exercise control over it despite being reasonably capable of doing so;

(d) where the market value of the land is equivalent to, or less than, the present value of direct state investment or subsidy in the acquisition and beneficial capital improvement of the land.

In other words, land can be seized without compensation if the owner is not using it, and is rather just waiting for property values to rise in order to sell at a profit.

Yeah sounds horrible.

How is this a genocide?

Stop spreading the bullshit.

Also, you might want to at least consider south African history and who was really fucked for a long time under Apartheid before spouting your crap.

Not anymore. They changed the prices and discounts by quite a bit.

I run them side by side too. I also have plexpass from ahes ago.

But I actually like the jellyfin ui better. It’s simple, to the point and most importantly fast. Sit. Down click jellyfin click show, go.

Plex just feels laggy and sloppy in comparison.

In the scenario I described to you trans people are much more comfortable than have 2 sex bathrooms.

A single sex bathroom means there is no choice that need to be made. They do not have to present as anything, nor be judged as anything. It is simply a person in a public room, and a private room for the private time.

It also means (as I described it) the sharing of the hand washing mirror facilities are barely different than being in the hallway. Do people share hallways? Of course. So this open to the public space adds a level of protection.

Then for the private space it is single use. One person.

I feel like I am having a hard time getting this across, and I don’t know why.

There will always be somebody who doesn’t like something. But you normalize things and then people adapt.

They like it better because they feel it is more private.

Nobody cares about washing their hands or fixing thier hair or whatever in front of others, and the appreciate that when they are doing the business part their is a completely private space.

I just visited a high school that does exactly this, and no one cares.

In fact they like it better.

You put the handwashing station in an open area, visible to the hallway.

You put floor to cieling stalls for the actual doing your business part.

I have been to a lot of places that do this and nobody cares. It is an added level of safety that you are either in private or visible to passers by.

I worded what I said poorly. I agree with you, it makes no sense. Short term thinking. I was trying to say that they could do all sorts of horrible things in the old fashioned way, not draw much attention and not much complaint. They could accomplish their short sighted plans without all the drama and scrutiny.

No it doesn’t make sense. Unless there is a grift.

Because in the past a company could negotiate for passage and minerals.

But this time a countrys leader wants to get in on that wealth and grift.

So it makes sense only if some asshole abuses their power for greed.

This all sucks.

I agree. However, I also have seen that the pain they went through to get to the cloud helped them consolidate and define what they were managing. So the backing out is turning out to be a bit easier than getting in.

Some of the companies I have been working with were already beginning to leave. The realization that cloud pricing will only go up AND being locked into it made them very wary. Some of the planning was already underway, this may only accelerate those plans.
