I've been called a centrist because I called for socialized healthcare, cheaper education, higher taxes on the rich, and putting the needs of people above the desires of the companies.
Apparently that's not liberal enough for a lot of users.
A few years back they dropped some clients (including the one for my old TV) because they were dropping support for legacy SSL ciphers on their servers
TLS 1.0/1.1? Those were deprecated and dropped by the IETF with RFC 8996. You can't even get a certificate using 1.0/1.1 anymore unless you are self-signing.
You can also allow unauthenticated users on certain networks, usually limited to your local nets. But I do agree that doesn't solve the problem. I'd love to allow users to optionally use local authentication with, eg, Authelia, something built in, or an LDAP backend.
I installed Jellyfin on my server but the Android TV app is just so awful.
It honestly feels like a webpage from 2005 with all the blocky elements, terrible scrolling, and no way to sort.
If you want to go to, say, Workaholics, you have to scroll through your entire library until you get there. There's no option to go straight to W. And, don't worry, the scrolling is very slow the whole time!
The search seems to work maybe 10% of the time. I've typed in the name of a movie and it wouldn't find it, but it did find episodes of shows that kinda match. I've typed in names of TV shows and it's found nothing. Both times, the movies and shows existed in my library.
If they can make it look and work better, I'd be happy to switch to it fully. All I'd need then is a way to pull the XMLTV file from Plex so I can record, too.
The Plex app for the Shield has a lot of bugs itself, though. I connected my Shield to a smart plug because it froze the system often enough that I needed to automate a way to restart it. Unfortunately I'd rather put up with that than the Jellyfin UI.
Little tip - it's usually because of pocket lint. Take a small piece of plastic or a toothpick and clean it out. 9 times out of 10, that's all you need.
Don't just brush past this. A new strain of Panama Disease now infects Cavandish, the current strain of bananas. It's spread across the globe now, even to Colombia where most bananas are harvested.
The closest replacement will be plantains. No other strain can be reliably mass harvested for global demand.
All of the stores I've worked at were strict on food safety.
Except one. The Taco Bell in Indy that was right by the IMS didn't give a rat's ass about food safety. They would drop food and wrap it up. They would be mopping the floor with their gloves on and go straight onto the line without even swapping them.
I used to work for a specialty waste company. We would brag about our ability to recycle better than any of our competitors. Because we would burn most of the waste.
It's easier and cheaper to just run one wire. Most people don't want more than a couple different port locations so why bother?
And you're not installing the other two items so it's not your responsibility. You're also not going to get paid more for doing the extra work. Even if the homeowner was the one paying you, most aren't willing to pay a bit extra just so it's easier on the next guy.
It didn't really have anything to do with fires. Pretty much every hardwood forest was cut down in Europe and any remaining were protected so they could be used to build ships.
America was colonized late enough that it never really became an issue.
Anyone can pick the lock in seconds if they take the time to learn.
My dad owned a few vending machines when I was a kid. Since they were used, he had to replace the locks on all of them and taught us how to pick them. It's relatively easy to do so. I think he only ever ended up drilling out one of the cylinders while he was able to pick the rest.
A Bic pen won't work that well, but a $50 pick will.
Yeah, that's not a surprise. German and Italian imports love to have some odd complication.
They're not alone, though. GM also loves their boneheaded decisions. My parents old LeSabre had the battery go out. For some odd reason, they decided it should be placed under the back seat.
Replacing the alternator can be either the easiest or most difficult task ever, depending on the car. But if it's a Chrysler/Jeep/Dodge, it'll always be difficult because they hate their customers.
In theory, it should always be easy. Loosen the tensioner, pop off the belt, unscrew a few things, remove a couple wires, pop it out, and perform the steps in reverse. But sometimes it gets stuck or the manufacturer requires you to practically take half the car apart to get to it.
What might help is getting a second set of hands. Sometimes it just takes one person putting the belt on while the other is holding the tensioner back.
