  • This was my exact experience as well. I'll never know how Plex compares to Jellyfin because I immediately noped out when I ran into the account creation.

    Frankly baffling to me that anyone with the wherewithal to self host thought that was okay.

  • My first read of this headline had me thinking "that's strange, gendered bathrooms are still pretty normal, they can't possibly have been banned, could they?"

    ...it hadn't even passed within miles of my mind that this was talking about racial segregation. I can't even comprehend this level of regression.

  • What could possibly be in the vaccines that would be worse than your child no longer existing?

    The article says the man is a Mennonite, which means he probably believes in an afterlife. In his mind his child still exists and he'll get to see her again when he passes and spends eternity there.

    I pretty firmly believe that afterlife beliefs account for a pretty significant distortion of values in people and helps explain a large number of frankly insane behaviours. Preventing deaths becomes much less important when there's an eternal paradise waiting for you and the "real" risk is doing something that bars you from going there.

  • My most common use for Google assistant was an extremely simple command. "Ok Google, set a timer for ten minutes." I used this frequently and flawlessly for a long time.

    Much like in your situation it just stopped working at some point. Either asking for more info it doesn't need, or reporting success while not actually doing it. I just gave up trying and haven't used any voice assistant in a couple of years now.

  • Some people prefer it.

    I maintain a small piece of Windows software and originally just provided an installer, but I received enough requests for it that now when I publish releases I provide both an installer and a zipped portable build.

  • Your laptop uses an iGPU. The "i" stands for integrated, as it's built into the same package as the CPU.

    The alternative, a dGPU, is a discrete part, separate from other components.

    They're saying that your situation is becoming increasingly common. People can do the gaming they want to without a dGPU more easily as time goes by.

  • I'd argue that Li should be red and Hg should be yellow.

    Elemental mercury in liquid form is fairly safe. It needs to get into your blood in order to be a problem, and even if some does stick to your tongue and get swallowed the digestive absorption is extremely low.

  • It is insane to me when people complain about the failure of a public service to turn a profit as if that's some kind of bad or unexpected outcome.

    Services cost money to operate for the benefit of those using them. That is literally the point.

  • must know Java, go, JavaScript, Ruby, Python, or rust

    Depending on the division you ended up in at the company I work you might need one or more of MSSQL, MySQL, PostgreSQL, C#, TypeScript, JavaScript, PHP, Ruby, VB.NET, Terraform, Groovyscript, or PowerBuilder.

  • But if they consistently win it still alter the political landscape such that someone else will have a better chance of enacting actual change in the future.

    The two party system is garbage, but if one of the two current parties lost its ability to win entirely then a different second option could appear.

  • Because of the XY problem. The problem OP is stating may not actually be the source of the issues OP is experiencing.

    Finding out what OP is trying to do will better inform a solution and may make the stated problem irrelevant.

  • I read through it for the details.

    It was net negative, requiring 2MW of power to maintain hydrogen plasma in a state analogous to fusion. The major achievement of this particular experiment was doing so without energies equivalent to a fusion reaction damaging the containing assembly.

    It was purely a test/demonstration of the containment of fusion-like conditions.

  • I work at a "Microsoft Shop" in a division that was a previously acquired software developer that used an entirely linux based dev stack.

    That stack is still all linux and we basically have to do all our work in WSL. It's a pain.
