  • The same thing happens with any stock which people don't like. Same thing happened with the Anheuser-Busch stocks during the whining about corporate pandering.

    From April to October 2023 when the "boycott" started, their shares fell ~15%. By December, they were back to where they started.

    Most news is not news, just emotional clickbait. I find Reuters and AP News take a fair bit (but not all) of the emotion out and make for a less triggering read.

  • Thanks for the response! Is it limited to encoding services then, so if I'm only dealing with streaming common media file types (e.g. MKV, MP4) is it still a problem? I'm not dealing with a ridiculous amount of media, so I could outsource the encoding process alone if needed...

  • I'm specifically looking into this at the moment as I have been gifted a pi 5.

    Most websites say avoid trying to host jellyfin on a pi 5 (codec and hardware issues are frequently noted). Do you have experience that shows these are non-issues?

  • Agreed.

    Also to point out that Anime itself doesn't really help its own cause here. Every show, even the decent ones, will have some weirdly out-of-the-blue softcore porn scene or outrageous outfit on an underaged high school student with oversized proportions, which does nothing to bring the story further, before they go back to the best fight scene you've seen this decade.

  • Not much more you can do than explain to them clearly why you think it's wrong from the perspective of both sides, whilst always reiterating they you will continue to love and support her. You need to explain why this man might be interested in her due to her age, and also that he may have enough experience in life to effectively lie and manipulate without her realising. At best you should get someone she trusts well to also explain this, preferably an adult outside of your household.

    You can look into counselling, but only if she is willing.

    I would not directly intervene until you feel it could become an unsafe situation. I would also not be seen as promoting the relationship either until you are also clear this person.

  • Check out linsoul if you are in the EU or massdrop if you are in the US.

    There are a huge amount of basic, low cost earphone manufacturers. The budget audiophile community can also provide more targeted help if needed, just be sure to include more info like price range, how you plan to use the headphones and what quality you expect, to get more helpful advice.

    I'm currently using a €25 set which have almost identical sounds quality to my €200 headphones in many situations.

    *Edited because apparently I can't spell...

  • I understand the sentiment you are going for, but I think it is a little cheap regarding the opinion of 300 million+ people.

    In my horribly narrow opinion, the American freedom is simply the freedom to choose. Nothing more, nothing less. The freedom to own a tiger, buy a tank or be "Florida man" for a day.

    It is not "free" from manipulation and sometimes it really feels like a 5 year old choosing to do the opposite of the right thing just "because".

    Sidenote: I ABSOLUTELY do not think it is the best way to build a nurturing society, but I get why it has such a passionate supporter base.
