Every update they've made for just about the past decade has made the product worse for the original users who just want to stream their own media. This last UI update killed my favorite download feature. They deserve the hate they're getting.
They seriously enshitified the download feature. You used to be able to set it to download X number of unplayed episodes. Then it would manage downloading fresh content for you as you watched stuff. Now you have to manually download each and every episode yourself. This was literally the killer feature Plex had over Jellyfin for me.
Yeah, it is an obvious reference to the fact she was hired for her looks. Is the sexism the comment or the reason she was put in the position she is in?
Is Barbie inherently sexist? I think here it's implying that she's just there to be the good-looking face of corruption. She is being used as a toy. Is calling out the sexism by referring to her as ICE Barbie sexist, or is using her as an ICE Barbie sexist?
Edit: I think the answer can be and is both. I don't support the use of ad hominem attacks. It just makes your argument easier to dismiss and is completely unnecessary when you have so many easy legitimate arguments to be made against this administration. However, I do think the bigger issue is the administration using her compared to the crass comment.
Broadcom is doing an excellent job convincing their customers to stop using VMware. Such a good job that at Red Hat we've shifted strategies with OpenShift Virtualization to pick up those customers. For the longest time our Virt play was just a stop gap to containers, now it's a full blown product.
Honestly, I don't even think it's posturing. I fully expect that not even every democrat would vote for this impeachment. With Maga Mike Johnson as the leader, it won't even make it to the floor. It's less than posturing. It's pointless, and it's just to grab the headline like this. An impeachment of a president has historically resulted in exactly 0 convictions. Trump brags about being vilified, it's just feeding into his narrative.
Their efforts would be far better spent finding better candidates and embracing progressive ideas that would actually win. Go canvas for what those policies are and figure out your messaging. Figure out how to win and take some power back instead of these powerless moves. If they keep just attacking Trump, they'll just keep entrenching the people that voted for him. It will validate the voters' belief that the democrats don't have their own path forward that will better their lives.
That's why they need to be thinking long-term, not reactionary. They need to be looking inward and ousting the ghouls in their leadership. Find actual progressive issues that the majority of people want. Focus on winning the midterms and taking away the majority from the republicans.
Instead, it sounds like they've learned nothing. They refuse to look inward and want to appeal to their big donors. Continuing to embrace the same moderate policies that lost the presidency, the house, and the senate. They refuse to acknowledge the big tent item that binds the majority of us. The owner class is fucking over the labor class.
This isn't doing something. This is just signaling. They know along with everyone else that it will fail. This is pretending to do something in order to seem like you're doing something.
Again? We all know this is pointless, grand standing. They would have to get enough republicans on board, and that just isn't going to happen. It is pretty fully the party of Trump now.
To be fair, it was incredibly overvalued. Its value was driven by one of the most successful conmen of all time. I just can't figure out if Trump or Musk is the most successful conman of all time. One has the most wealth in the world, one has the most power.
You don't even need to do that. Just use regular index funds and shift the percentage of your total investments to be more and more bond heavy as you get closer to retirement. Avoid those fees that those target funds have.
Somebody the other day asked what the point of the immutable desktops are. Well, ostree can do this. Granted, you have to stay within the ostree ecosystem. However, you can rebase from one ostree distro to another.
